My Premier League Dream Team

This is a collection of my favourite Premier League players for every position.  This team is obviously insane, but I’ve tried not to pick the absolute best, rather who I like as a combination of skill, swagger, and personality (and a bit of Arsenal bias).  This team is based on a 4-3-3 formation, so lo and behold my Premier League Dream Team. Starting with the back 4, I’d have Kieran Tierney at left back, the Scottish David Beckham.  KT is a gamer who plays with so much hustle and heart, ad can whip in crosses like the best of them.  He’s obviously new to the Premier League, but he’s adjusting well and making an impact.  My centre back pairing would start with the up and coming Chelsea ace, Fikayo Tomori.  He was born in Canada so there’s a little bit of Canadian bias there.  But on top of that, Tomori is emerging as an incredible CB who’s done a nice job at keeping the league’s best in check.  Beside him I’ll put the Turkish Van Dijk, Caglar Söyüncü.  He was on Arsenal’s radar a
