Attackers:
STRIKER/ NUMBER 10: Sergio Aguero
Aguero makes this position his own by beating Chelsea’s number 10 Oscar. Oscar was industrious and stylish as well last year, but his form dipped after January as his creativity stopped and he became a simple box-to-box player. He had a good World Cup though. Aguero was however, last season’s second best striker based on flair and quality but had an injury hit season. Aguero can score as well as create goals for his strike partner and has an exceptional sense of positioning and an eye for a goal.
STRIKER: Diego Costa
The final position on the pitch boils down to Edin Dzeko and Diego Costa and the winner is the new Chelsea man. Costa scored 27 goals in La Liga closely behind world beaters Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. That itself talks about his ability to finish chances. He has had a good pre-season as of now and looks a real deal in Chelsea’s attack. Dzeko on the other hand has been a really good target man for the team, with his physicality and his ability to position himself well and shoot powerfully. But compared to Costa, Dzeko is more of a rotation player and has limited technique.
Final Team: 6 Chelsea players and 5 Man City Players.
The Dollar XI: Courtois; Zabaleta, Kompany, Cahill, Azpilicueta; Matic, Yaya Toure, Silva, Hazard; Aguero, Costa.
