Phil Foden, a top player for Manchester City, has improved his consistency this season and has been a standout performer for Pep Guardiola's team. Foden was born in Stockport.

Erling Braut Haaland, who has scored 25 goals this season—four of which came in his most recent match against Wolverhampton Wanderers to support City's title defence—is another hero in City's attempt to make history.

William Saliba and Bukayo Saka of Arsenal have been crucial to the Gunners' success this season. This season, the England international has helped Arsenal to the top of the league with 16 goals and nine assists.

Kobbie Mainoo of Manchester United is an unexpected addition. Due to an injury crisis, he emerged this term and has thrown caution to the wind.

Left-back for Tottenham Hotspur Destiny Udogie has given Spurs an additional offensive dimension.
