Perhaps the most understated one on the list, Giroud is seen as a favourite of Les Bleus coach Didier Deschamps and will be favoured to start matches for France at the World Cup.

Offering a fantastic aerial presence, good hold-up play and possessing an unselfish attitude, Giroud is great for the France team as his presence allows the other stars; Antoine Griezmann, Paul Pogba, Kylian Mbappe among others express themselves fully.

With the French team heavily favoured for the title, Giroud will benefit from the quality of his teammates who will provide a significant number of chances for the Arsenal forward to profit from.

A very good record of 28 goals in 68 matches for France shows him as a prolific striker who should be among the goals in the World Cup.
