Modern player formations include between one and three strikers; two is most common. Coaches usually field one striker who plays over the shoulder of the last defender, and another attacking forward who plays somewhat deeper and assists in making goals as well as scoring.

Because they score more goals than other players, strikers are often among the best-known and most expensive players on their teams.
