Strikers:
Forward: Wayne Rooney
Rooney is England’s best striker with a blend of technique and work rate. He has been used in various postions on the pitch with his ability to work his socks off. That said, he is best placed as a striker with his powerful as well as accurate finishing. Aggression is one thing he has in plenty, so despite being average heighted, he still manages to win headers and has a strong core to resist challenges. He has been a proven performer in the league since a long time.
Forward: Sergio Aguero
Aguero has been one of the best strikers in the league as well as in the world. He has immense attacking work rate and can play many attacking positions, his best being as a support striker. Exceptionally good dribbling skills and an ability to finish from any position and angles, Aguero is one of the most technically gifted strikers in the league. He scored many last season despite being constantly injured. He would be key to Man City’s prospects this season as well.
Forward: Robin van Persie
Van Persie is one of the world’s best finishers. His shooting has been his main asset as he can score fron anywhere with the goal in sight. He has a balanced amount of technique and physical strength. He isn’t that fast on the pitch but his astute positioning and finishing means he is among the top scorers of the league if he plays most of the games. Under van Gaal he is expected to be leading from the front. With experience and ability, van Persie will be key to how Man Utd pan out this season.
