Monday Night Football duo Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher have selected their individual Premier League Team of the Season, and have decided to go for exactly the same players with two exceptions.

While the Sky Sports analysts agree that John Terry should feature in the side having led Chelsea to a fourth Premier League title, former Liverpool defender Carragher believes that Arsenal’s Laurent Koscielny deserves to be recognised in the side.

However, Neville disagrees, and the ex-Manchester United right-back believes it should be Terry’s defensive partner Gary Cahill who should form the base of the side.

With identical midfield formations, it means that the pair also differ in attack, and Carragher believes that Tottenham’s Harry Kane deserves recognition for his tremendous breakthrough season in which he scored 30 goals for Spurs in all competitions.

But Neville feels that Diego Costa should be included alongside Sergio Aguero, with the livewire Chelsea striker scoring 19 times in the league despite suffering from a persistent hamstring injury in the second half of the season.

Having been praised for their detailed analysis throughout the season, have Carragher and Neville got their teams right or wrong?
