Premier League - The history of champions
PREMIER LEAGUE XI: 4-2-3-1
GK: David de Gea - Manchester United
De Gea has consistently proven that he is one of the best goalkeepers in the world this season, helping to rejuvenate Louis van Gaal's side.
RB: Pablo Zabaleta - Manchester City
Zabaleta is widely regarded as the league's best right-back, regularly utilising his attacking prowess to surge forward and set up goals for his team-mates.
CB: Vincent Kompany - Manchester City
City skipper Kompany is a formidable player who rarely lets anyone past him and has already led the club to two league titles.
CB: John Terry - Chelsea
Veteran defender Terry has defied his age with some show-stopping performances under Mourinho and many England fans will be wondering what could have happened had he been asked back into Roy Hodgson's set-up for the World Cup in Brazil.
LB: Cesar Azpilicueta - Chelsea
The Spain international has gone from strength to strength since switching flanks, and anyone who can oust Ashley Cole from a place in the starting eleven has to be one of the top full-backs in world football.
CM: Cesc Fabregas - Chelsea
The former Arsenal star has been sensational since moving to Stamford Bridge, creating goals left, right and centre whilst proving capable of putting in resilient performances against more stubborn opponents.
CM: Nemanja Matic - Chelsea
Quite simply the best holding midfielder in the country, Matic has been a revelation after signing for Chelsea in January and his presence is one of the main reasons why the Blues are flying this season.
RM: Alexis Sanchez - Arsenal
The ex-Barcelona man has hit the ground running after moving to England in the summer, quickly winning over the Emirates faithful and stealing the limelight from team-mate Mesut Ozil.
CAM: Oscar - Chelsea
Despite a dip in form after replacing Juan Mata as Chelsea's No 10, Oscar has staked his claim as one of the hardest-working attacking midfielders in the game whilst solidifying his place as a key player for the Brazil team.
LM: Eden Hazard - Chelsea
Hazard has become the main man at Stamford Bridge, which is no mean feat, and his dazzling performances since joining from Lille has seen him tipped to become a Blues legend by his manager.
ST: Sergio Aguero - Manchester City
The Argentine is one of the most in-form strikers in world football, with his trickery and pace causing chaos for teams in both the Premier League and the Champions League.
Manager: Jose Mourinho - Chelsea
The Special One is regarded as the greatest manager currently in the game, with his no-nonsense attitude and tactical approach earning him trophies at every club under his tenure.
LA LIGA XI: 4-2-3-1
GK: Claudio Bravo - Barcelona
Replacing club favourite Victor Valdes was never going to be an easy task, but Chile international Bravo has proven his worth at the Nou Camp ahead of rival Marc-Andre ter Stegen.
RB: Dani Carvajal - Real Madrid
Carvajal has shone at Real following his return to the club from Germany, making Alvaro Arbeloa's role at the club redundant.
CB: Diego Godin - Atletico Madrid
Uruguay captain Godin played an instrumental role in last season's title glory, attracting interest from major teams across Europe including Manchester United and Arsenal.
CB: Sergio Ramos - Real Madrid
The fiery defender wears his heart on his sleeve and his goal in last season's Champions League final highlighted his deep passion for Real Madrid.
LB: Marcelo - Real Madrid
Marcelo is one of world football's leading attacking wing-backs, whilst also proving to be reliable in defensive situations.
CM: Luka Modric - Real Madrid
Despite a slow start to his career in Spain, Modric has become a key player under Carlo Ancelotti and is now a fans' favourite at the Bernabeu.
CM: Andres Iniesta - Barcelona
Spain legend Iniesta is one of La Liga's greats, with his mazy runs and pin-point passes crucial to Barcelona's passing game.
RM: Gareth Bale - Real Madrid
Welshman Bale took Spain by storm following his world-record move from Tottenham and looks destined to go down as one of the greatest British players ever.
CAM: Lionel Messi - Barcelona
Possibly the best player of all time, Messi single-handedly created the idea of a 'False Nine' position, with his dribbling and finishing making him a global icon.
LM: Cristiano Ronaldo - Real Madrid
The current Ballon d'Or holder has improved significantly since his time at Manchester United, with his sheer speed and physicality making him an unstoppable force against almost any team.
ST: Luis Suarez - Barcelona
Despite all the controversy, Suarez is possibly the best striker currently in the game, and is sure to prove his worth at Barcelona following a summer move from Liverpool.
Manager: Carlo Ancelotti - Real Madrid
The classy Italian has already proved his credentials in Italy and England, whilst his incredible Champions League record makes him one of the top gaffers in the game.
