No Ibrahimovic, Terry in David Luiz's dream XI
Paris, Dec 4 (IANS) David Luiz's dream team has been unveiled on the Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) website where the Brazilian defender could not squeeze the Ligue 1 champions' star striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic into his squad.
Interestingly, Luiz picked four former Chelsea teammates but left out the Blues skipper John Terry while being asked to name his "Best XI" of stars he has played with throughout his career.
Czech keeper Petr Cech is in goal of Luiz's dream team, which is set up in a 4-4-2 formation. He named himself at center back partnering with his Brazilian teammate Thiago Silva, who's also playing for the Parisiens.
The Brazilian duo are accompanied by Chelsea's Serbian full back Branislav Ivanovic, who was described by Luiz as being able to "jump like a kangaroo," and their PSG teammate Maxwell on the left.
Mid-fielders Willian and Michael Essien are the other two Chelsea players included in Luiz's dream team with the "fantastic" Willian on the right and Essien the "machine in the middle."
It is completed by two former Benfica teammates of Luiz, Manchester United's Angel di Maria and Pablo Aimar, who he believes is "the best player" he has played with.
Up front, Luiz picked Brazilian star striker Neymar, who he believes will soon become the best player in the world and Barcelona's Argentine genius Lionel Messi, who has never actually played for the same club as Luiz.
