Chelsea have the chance to end their disappointing season on a positive note this weekend, when they face Manchester United in the FA Cup final at Wembley.

It could well prove to be Antonio Conte's final game in charge of the Blues, that's the collective inkling anyway, and the Italian will be eager to end his tenure with a strong record of two trophies in two seasons.

In order to overcome this Man United side, however, and halt the netting prowess of striker Romelu Lukaku, Conte must make the right call at the heart of his defence.

Captain Gary Cahill has drawn criticism this season but the 58-cap England man helped Chelsea cling onto a huge clean sheet against Liverpool a few weeks ago.

Andreas Christensen, meanwhile, has been one of the real success stories at Stamford Bridge this term, but has struggled at times against elite opposition and still lacks experience.

Both featured against Newcastle last time out, although it will likely be a choice between the two this Saturday with Antonio Rudiger returning to the starting XI.

So, who would you start at the heart of defence and who would you drop to the bench, Chelsea fans? Let us know by voting below...
