Arsenal vs. Manchester United - Combined XI | Premier League 2019-20

Wide Forwards: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Marcus Rashford

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang took the Premier League's Golden Boot last season

His attitude might’ve been questioned in recent months, but it’d be impossible to leave Arsenal’s Gabonese forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang out of a side like this. The winner of last season’s Golden Boot award, Aubameyang already has 13 Premier League goals this season; his goals count for half of the Gunners’ total in 2019-20, and one can only imagine where they would be without him.

Marcus Rashford meanwhile struggled as a central forward, but since moving back to his preferred wide forward slot this season he’s been fantastic. He’s scored 12 goals and registered 4 assists in his 20 appearances, including strikes against Tottenham and Manchester City, and he’s on a phenomenal run right now, with 6 goals in his last 8 Premier League matches. Simply put, he’s the Red Devils’ most important player.

Striker: Alexandre Lacazette

Alexandre Lacazette is one of the Premier League's deadliest finishers

France’s Alexandre Lacazette hasn’t been on quite the same form that he showed in his first two Premier League seasons; he’s scored 5 goals thus far in 2019-20, and hasn’t found the back of the net since Arsenal’s loss to Brighton almost a month ago. Despite this, he’s still one of the Premier League’s most deadly finishers.

Lacazette’s form may not be quite as good as that of his fellow Frenchman Anthony Martial right now, but it’s also true that he has scored more than 20 goals in a season on 4 occasions in his career, something that Martial has not managed yet; United’s 24-year old has also never matched Lacazette’s return of 19 goals in the 2018-19 season.
