    Haaland, the Cyborg. He just makes it look so easy. I wonder if he regrets not playing for England...born in Leeds? I don't think he's ever going to shine in a World Cup.

    Yeah, the guy is a beast of a man but a truly natural goalscorer. And scarily still has lots of future potential.

    Harry Kane. Best player in the league IMO. Closely followed by de bruyne

    De Bruyne probably, just like Messi in his prime, De Bruyne's stuff is just a joy to watch.

    And maybe Kane too, a rare old school Shearer esque striker in the modern game.

    I like Arsenals batch of young AM's Saka, Emile Smith Rowe and Martinelli. All 21-22 and bags of talent already and could become an absolute force if Arsenal can find a way to keep them all happy - they will have a really potent attack for years to come with those 3 and a decent trio around them (CM's and CF).

    The goal he scored versus Palace the other night where he controlled the ball in one touch and fired it into the corner with another touch was outstanding.

    Has to be Haaland.

    Goal scoring is the most difficult skill to master and he makes it look so easy. Obviously, playing for City with De Bruyne in particular helps but even City haven’t had someone as good as Haaland in putting the ball in the net.

    Robert Snodgrass, simply for his surname.

    I can’t stand him. He’s a good player. But he’s a boring fart.

    Yeah, good point, let's just stick with Murphy, Wood, Fraser, Lascelles, Shelvey, Longstaff...
