There are several questions you will want answered by FIFA 17 immediately: who are the fastest players, have they fixed scripting and who will score the most goals in the game. Goals are, after all, the single biggest currency in FIFA, and choosing which strike-force you line up with is an increasingly important decision given the superheroic empowerment of 'keepers this year.

But which of this year's crop of forwards will emerge as the best? Whose very presence on your team sheet guarantees bursting nets and goal bonuses? That's the real question.

Now, FIFA doesn't actually class any of the top three players in the world as strikers, but you know for a fact you're going to be playing them in a front three if you have them in your side. Or you're just not doing it right.

So in the interest of realism, let's bend the rules of what "strikers" means to include a certain Brazilian, an Argentinian and a Portuguese superstar...

12. Pierre -Emerick Aubameyang - 86

FIFA 16 Rating: 84

As if you needed an excuse to sign Dortmund's goal machine Aubameyang, his pace is absolutely beastly. If he's not in the top 1% of speedsters, there's something definitely wrong.

Last year, the Gabon international scored 39 goals in 46 appearances, making him one of Europe's most lethal hitmen, and it's only right he's been given an uplift. Still, it could have been higher than 86.
