Andre Villas-Boas will face his biggest test to date when his Chelsea side take on Alex Ferguson’s Manchester United at Old Trafford tomorrow, but which XI players should he be picking for the match?

Didier Drogba won’t feature for Chelsea as he’s just returned to full training following his injury against Norwich and is still suffering some ill effects of the concussion he suffered.

Manchester United have a lot of pace in their attack and the Blues have only managed one clean sheet in their last 16 trips to Old Trafford and have only kept one clean sheet in their last eight league games, so picking the right pairing for the centre-back positions could prove crucial.

Chelsea’s midfield has mostly been pedestrian during the early stages of the season, but the likes of Juan Mata and Raul Meireles have improved the side and we are creating more chances, but the forwards will have to improve their accuracy as only five of our 19 shots against Sunderland were on target.

Who’d be in your Chelsea XI for the game against Manchester United tomorrow?
