Left Forward: Sadio Mane (Liverpool)
All three attacking spots are filled by Liverpool players, as all the Chelsea attackers have floundered for most part of this campaign.
Sadio Mane leads the way on the left flank, where his direct style of play and extra physicality makes him a nightmare for opposition defenders.
The Senegal international has not been at his best this season but has still managed to contribute seven goals, which is more than any Chelsea forward has scored in the Premier League this term.
Central Forward: Roberto Firmino (Liverpool)
Roberto Firmino narrowly edges out Timo Werner primarily due to his understanding with his fellow Liverpool attackers.
The Reds' attacking trident is arguably the most potent in world football, and their almost telepathic understanding on the field has played no small part in their success.
Firmino contributes the least amount of goals, but his value lies in the unquantifiable aspects of the game; His hold-up play allows his teammates to run off his shoulder, while his little flicks draw out low-block defences and create space to exploit. Firmino generally does the right thing at the right time to ensure that his team's attack does not flicker out.
This season, the Brazil international has scored just six goals from 25 league matches, but no Chelsea striker has scored more. Firmino's understanding with Mane and Salah makes him walk straight into this hypothetical combined XI.
Right Forward: Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)
Mohamed Salah is arguably the best player in the Premier League, and his displays in the last four seasons have earned him the right to this claim.
This season, while his teammates might have struggled around him, the Liverpool number 11 continues to set the pace for other forwards in the league to follow.
The 28-year-old is on course for a third Golden Boot, having scored a league-high 17 goals. He has also weighed in with three assists for a total goal contribution of 20 from just 25 league games.
Mohamed Salah has scored more goals in the current campaign than all the Chelsea forwards combined, so his place in this combined XI is beyond any doubt.
