Just like Kevin De Bruyne, if there's one player who cannot be replaced in this team it has to be Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski. The Polish international has been on fire this season and has been prolific in every single competition for the Bavarians.

He won the Bundesliga Golden Boot award for the fifth time in his career after scoring 34 goals and was unlucky to have been beaten to the European Golden Shoe by Lazio's Ciro Immobile, who scored 36 goals but also played seven games more than Lewandowski.

He is a complete forward who scored all kinds of goals and this season and even bagged more headed goals (8) than any other striker. He now has the golden opportunity to become the top scorer at UEFA Champions League this season, as he already has 11 in the competition and is on track to end Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo's 12-year long duopoly over the honour.


Striker: Timo Werner (RB Leipzig) - 7.60

Timo Werner joins Lewandowski upfront to form an all-German partnership in the attack of this team. The player who agreed to join Premier League club Chelsea in June had a memorable final season with RB Leipzig, in which he scored a whopping 28 goals and bagged eight assists as well.

His goals were one of the main reasons RB Leipzig stayed in the Bundesliga title race as long as they did and as the tweet above indicates, his goals earned the most points for his team.

The player has grown a lot at the Red Bull Arena and has added finesse and decisiveness in the final third to his incredible pace. He can follow the suit of former Bundesliga star Christian Pulisic and set the Premier League on fire next season.
