Attack

Striker: Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur)

The first of our deadly striking duo is Tottenham Hotspur's Harry Kane. A Tottenham lad through and through (apart from the small matter of him supporting Arsenal as a child, but we'll let that go), Kane has often been in and among the candidates for the Premier League golden boot since his maiden campaign in 2014/15.

Kane made his debut for Spurs in 2012 as an 86th-minute substitute but was subsequently loaned out that season. He saw his game time improve dramatically as Mauricio Pochettino was appointed as manager in 2014, playing 34 times that season, scoring 21 goals. In every season since, Kane has scored more than 15 goals, with seven to his name already this term and under new manager Jose Mourinho, will certainly be looking to scale new heights.

Striker: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (Arsenal)

To round off our team, we have our second Arsenal player, and the fifth player based in North London. Gabonese hitman Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is one of the deadliest strikers in the world and has been for a while now.

Perhaps the most prolific forward since Thierry Henry to pull on the red and white for Arsenal (although Robin van Persie might have something to say about that), 'Auba' has been a sensation. With the rest of the team (especially the defence) crashing and burning around him, his focus has been laser-sharp.

His job is to score goals, and it is solely thanks to the former Borussia Dortmund man that Arsenal are not lower down in the table than they already are, given their patchy form. Blessed with fantastic speed, he can burn anyone in a footrace, and can finish unerringly even at full tilt, an attribute several strikers would kill for.
