DMC: Nemanja Matic (Chelsea)
The Serbian enforcer is such a key player for the Premier League champions, and even more so in Europe when Jose Mourinho is attempting to negotiate tricky away trips and two-legged ties.
Although Chelsea went out in the last 16, Matic made the most tackles per game in the competition and is perfect to sit at the bottom of our midfield diamond.
CM: Marco Verratti (Paris Saint-Germain)
Verratti enhanced his growing reputation with some combative displays as Paris Saint-Germain took great strides in their European development.
The Ligue 1 champions claimed their first major Champions League scalp in the shape of Chelsea and the 22-year-old Italian was instrumental in that victory.
