Players to Watch

Gabriel Jesus (Arsenal)

Gabriel Jesus is a right-footed attacker who has experience playing across the front line. Close to the goal, he is at his best playing off instinct. His lightning-quick reactions and ability to twist and manipulate his body to face goals when reacting to loose balls or passes into the area make him a huge threat.

The Gunners forward does not provide much threat in the air but remains a danger at set pieces through his movement and ability to attack the second phase. He is smart with his movement in the final third and creates a lot of trouble for the defenders.

Bradley Barcola (Paris Saint Germain)

Bradley Barcola boasts an imposing tall frame that allows him to cover plenty of ground and excel in counter-attacking situations. Using his pace and long strides, he can create a lot of trouble for the defenders. He isn’t afraid to take on his man and put his divine footwork to use. His ability to play at various positions and his technical ability make him a valuable asset to the club.
