The absolute marquee stars anchoring this devastating attacking unit are Arsenal's powerhouse striker Viktor Gyökeres and Liverpool's clinical forward Alexander Isak. Much to the delight of the passionate fans, Tottenham's midfield prodigy Lucas Bergvall has also secured his spot to inject creative flair into the center of the pitch.
