Despite his age, Julian Draxler has already demonstrated a remarkable array of gifts.

He's more of an attacking midfielder than Lewis Holtby - comfortable taking players on, happy to play through the middle or out wide, and he's a capable crosser even with his weaker left foot.

On his favored right, Draxler is a threat to the goal from the most outlandish range.
