Premier League best XI
(Alisson, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk, Harry Maguire, Andrew Robertson, N'Golo Kante, Bruno Fernandes, Kevin De Bruyne, Mohammed Salah, Harry Kane, Son Heung-min)
With Liverpool and Manchester City dominating and captivating the Premier League in recent seasons, it's no surprise that their players make up the core of the current best XI. While their defense remained abysmal, Tottenham had some of the most inspiring displays of attacking football last season. So, it makes sense that two of their players show up on the list.

Manchester United also have two entries on the list, partly due to their brilliant efforts last season that led the club to second place in the table.
Between the posts, Liverpool star Allison will take charge. With his shot-stopping dexterity and command of his defensive line, the Brazilian international is arguably the best goalkeeper in the Premier League.
With their combination of speed, strength, and strong mentalities, Virgil van Dijk and Harry Maguire will take center-back slots. They might play for Liverpool and Manchester United respectively, but when put together, the duo will be a formidable wall of force against world-class attackers.
Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson are both wing-backs for Liverpool. Playing on the right and left respectively, the two have astonishing crossing and passing accuracy. While they are primarily defenders, both Liverpool stars could wreak havoc in the final third if given the space. Combined, they gave Liverpool 14 Premier League assists last season, and Alexander-Arnold has already started this season in fine form with one assist.
N'Golo Kante's presence in the holding midfield position will be a key defensive attribute for the squad. His ability to chase down attackers, run laps across the field and control the midfield will be essential for the PL XI.
Above Kante, Bruno Fernandes and Kevin De Bruyne will effortlessly link the defense with the attack. Capable of pulling the strings in the middle third, the duo is capable of brilliant, game-changing playmaking.
Coming from the Red and Blue sides of Manchester respectively, Fernandes and De Bruyne are both quality players with vision, skill and a sublime eye for goal. The two playmakers contributed to a combined 48 Premier League goals last season, which just goes to show how efficient they are from midfield.
In attack, Harry Kane's smooth link-up with fellow Tottenham teammate Son Heung-min is certain to provide the Premier League side with excitement and flair.
With Sergio Aguero now out of England, there's hardly a better striker than Harry Kane. His strong composure in front of goal - as well as his pacey off-the-ball movement - allows the England captain to score goals and provide assists for Son and Liverpool's Mohamed Salah. Available to cut inside the box and dish out goals, the explosive wingers will find a fair share of opportunities, thanks to a selfless Harry Kane. The clinical trio are highly efficient in the final third, having picked up a combined 91 goal contributions in the Premier League last season.
