DC: Per Mertesacker

An underrated star of this Arsenal side, Per Mertesacker is one of Germany’s World Cup winners who has also claimed silverware in England with two FA Cups.

DC: Jerome Boateng

Despite only spending one season at Manchester City, Jerome Boateng is another immensely talented German defender to ply his trade in the Premier League in recent times.

MC: Dietmar Hamann

A key player for Liverpool back in the day, Dietmar Hamann became something of a fans’ favourite at Anfield, and also had a decent spell at Manchester City.

MC: Michael Ballack

Perhaps not at his very best in a Chelsea shirt, Michael Ballack is still one of the finest midfielders of his generation and provided the Blues with some memorable moments and important goals.

AMR: Andre Schurrle

A fine goalscoring winger who arguably deserved more of a chance for Chelsea, Andre Schurrle was a key part of Germany’s World Cup-winning squad last summer.

AML: Lukas Podolski

Frozen out at Arsenal last season, Lukas Podolski still made a good impact in his first two seasons with the club, scoring some beautiful goals with that powerful left foot of his.

AMC: Mesut Ozil

One of Arsenal’s best players, Mesut Ozil is undoubtedly a world class attacking midfielder and one of the finest Germans to play his football in the Premier League.

FC: Jurgen Klinsmann

A Tottenham legend, Jurgen Klinsmann had two spells with the club and was a hugely prolific striker at this level, making himself a real favourite with the White Hart Lane faithful.
