Best XI of players fighting for top four with Arsenal dominating but struggling Man Utd boasting just ONE star

WITH the top three Premier League positions all but sown up already, five teams are left battling it out for the final Champions League spot.

Arsenal are currently in pole position, but Manchester United, Tottenham, West Ham AND Wolves are all still in with a shot of grabbing fourth place.

Just eight points separates the four teams as the Premier League enters the business end of the campaign.

But on an individual level who has impressed the most this term?

Here SunSport takes a look at a combined XI of Champions League challengers.

David De Gea is the ONLY Manchester United player represented in the side.

A torrid season would be far worse if it weren’t for the safe hands of De Gea, with the Spaniard pulling off stunning saves on a regular basis.

The defence is Arsenal dominated, with only title rivals Manchester City and Liverpool keeping more clean sheets than the Gunners this campaign.

Kieran Tierney and Takehiro Tomiyasu have been consistent performers throughout, while Ben White has impressed since his £50million move from Brighton in the summer.

The trio are joined in defence by Wolves defender Roman Saiss.

Perhaps a slightly left field choice, but Saiss is second only to Mohammed Salisu in most Premier League interceptions this season, with 56 to his name so far.

He also offers a left-footed option to complement the right-footed White alongside him.

West Ham talisman Declan Rice anchors the midfield alongside Ruben Neves, behind a North London dominated front four.

Both Rice and Neves are tipped for big moves come the end of the season, with Rice valued at over £100million by the Hammers and both United and Arsenal keen on Neves.

Arsenal stars Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard were no brainers on the right hand side and in the No10 role.

Saka has scored nine goals and provided five assists in 28 Prem games, while Odegaard has come into his own in recent weeks.

Harry Kane leads the line after finding his feet following a stuttering start to the season, while his Spurs mate Son Heung-Min gets the nod on the left.

That’s despite Son getting plenty of stick from fans after for diving to the ground in Sunday’s clash against after the ball was weakly kicked against him.

And there’s no room for Cristiano Ronaldo, who has shown flashes of brilliance at times, but has been nowhere near his best.
