RW – Raheem Sterling
The 19-year-old appears to have picked up where he left off last season in 2014/15, with two league goals already and increasing confidence.
ST – Mario Balotelli
With Daniel Sturridge out injured for the next three weeks Balotelli has a great opportunity to establish himself after a £16m switch from AC Milan.
LW – Adam Lallana
There could be a debut for this England international who also joined from the Saints in the summer, although he will be battling with Lazar Markovic for a place.
