Defenders
Cesar Azpilicueta – KEEP
Enjoyed a breakthrough year under Mourinho in 2013/14 and although played much of that campaign at left-back, is expected to be moved back to his preferred right this time around.
Ryan Bertrand – SELL
At 24-years-old the Englishman has had his chance to impress and failed to do so and it would probably be better finding another alternative.
Gary Cahill – KEEP
Was named in the 2014 PFA Team of the Year for his fine performances for the West Londoners over the past 12 months and looks comfortable on any stage.
Branislav Ivanovic – KEEP
A versatile defender with the ability to play centrally or at right-back and is generally a reliable performer whenever called upon.
Filipe Luis – KEEP
A new £15.8m signing from Atleti this summer after helping them to the Champions League final and La Liga triumph last term and looks set to be a like-for-like replacement for Ashley Cole.
John Terry – KEEP
The captain was back to his best last campaign and alongside Cahill made up one half of the best central defensive partnership in the Premier League.
Kurt Zouma – KEEP
Was a £12.5m acquisition from Saint-Etienne in January and then spent the following six months on-loan in Ligue 1, but looks set to be given a chance.
