#3 Petr Cech
Both Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger have had the pleasure of working with one of the finest goalkeepers in the history of the Premier League, Petr Cech. The Czech international was signed by Chelsea in the summer of 2004 from Rennes.
Jose Mourinho was right about his decision to sign Cech as he played an important role in helping the Blues win the Premier League in his first season. With Chelsea, the shot-stopper has won four league titles, four FA Cups, one UEFA Champions League and one UEFA Europa League title. Under Jose, two of those Premier League titles and one FA Cup were won.
In 2015, having spent eleven seasons with Chelsea, Cech decided to join Arsenal. Arsene Wenger was an admirer of the Czech goalkeeper because of his stellar presence and effectiveness between the sticks. With the Gunners, he won the FA Cup once and the FA Community Shield twice. The former Sparta Prague player highly rates both Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger.
#2 Patrick Vieira
Patrick Vieira is arguably one of the best central midfielders of his generation. He signed for Arsenal in the summer of 1996 and it had a lot to do with Arsene Wenger becoming the Gunners' manager back then.
The Frenchman was a box-to-box midfielder and was pretty good at it. His aggressive style of play helped in winning the ball time and again. He was instrumental in Arsenal winning the Premier League thrice during his tenure at the club. He was the captain of the "Invincibles" team that went undefeated the entire season in the 2003-04 season.
The midfielder joined Juventus in 2005 but the Italian club were relegated to Serie B the following season. As a result, Vieira decided to join Inter Milan in 2006. Jose Mourinho took over the Nerazzurri in 2008, meaning the French midfielder played two seasons under him. The duo won Serie A together. Vieira was of the opinion that he learned more from the Portuguese manager than he did from Arsene Wenger.
#1 Cesc Fabregas
The Premier League has seen some fine midfielders in the its history and Cesc Fabregas is arguably one of them. The Spanish midfielder kickstarted his senior career with Arsenal.
Under Arsene Wenger, Fabregas became one of the finest playmakers in the Premier League at a very young age. With his incisive passing, creativity and vision, he was difficult to contain. The Spaniard spent seven seasons with the Gunners. Unfortunately, the London club struggled to convert their promise and flair into trophies, which is why Fabregas left to play for Barcelona in 2011.
After spending three seasons with the Catalan club, the Spanish midfielder returned to the Premier League to play for Chelsea this time. Back then, Jose Mourinho was enjoying his second spell with the Blues.
Fabregas won his first Premier League trophy with the former Real Madrid manager. To date, he remains one of the few players to have played under Jose Mourinho, Arsene Wenger and Pep Guardiola.
