Arsenal and Chelsea are considered as two of the biggest teams in the history of English football. That’s exactly why it isn’t surprising that sensational football stars have featured for both London clubs in the 21st century.

We have numerous talented players who have played for Chelsea and Arsenal in the 21st century. Most of those players have retired from the beautiful game while others are at the brink of ending their respective careers.

We will take a look at best 11 stars who have played for Arsenal and Chelsea in the 21st century. Note that the team selection is largely based on the quality of players and their positions on the field during their stints at Chelsea and Arsenal:

Preferred formation (3-4-3)

Goalkeeper: Peter Cech

Defenders: Luiz, Gallas, Ashley Cole

Midfielders: Diarra, Petit

Wingbacks: Willian, Benayoun

Attackers: Fabregas, Giroud, and Anelka

There is a touch of strategic deficiency in the manner the group is set up in light of the fact that we couldn’t in any way leave out certain names on the rundown.

Ashley Cole is a natural left-back but he’s deployed at a back-three position. The English defender can’t be disregarded and he merits a spot in the group after his superb spells at Arsenal and Chelsea.

Benayoun and Willian in wing-back positions doesn’t seem like the best method for taking advantage of their ability. Be that as it may, the two players have an incredible hard working attitude and have the stuff to appreciate useful spells a stretch in such position.
