The defender came off the bench to salvage a point for Hoffenheim at home against Borussia Monchengladbach. It was his second goal of the season. His club are fifth on the table halfway through the Bundesliga season.
4.Paul Onuachu
The big striker has extended his goals tally in Belgium after he scored his 12th goal in the league in a 1-1 home draw with Antwerp. Onuachu opened scoring for the home team after 32 minutes only the visitors to peg them back late on in the encounter. However, he was later forced out of the match by injury.
3.Joe Aribo
The versatile midfielder has continued to shine under the new coach as Rangers extended their lead at top of the table in Scotland with a home win over Dundee United. He has scored goals and scooped Man of the Match awards under manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst to be linked with various clubs in the Premier League.
2.Zaidu Sanusi
The leftback has most certainly rediscovered the form that earned him a place in the Super Eagles when he fired a super blaster to cap a Man-of-the-match in Porto 3-0 win at Vizela. He will now be first choice for the Eagles again at the AFCON in Cameroon.
1.Samuel Chukwueze
‘Samu’ netted his fifth goal of the season in all competitions when he came off the bench to score Villarreal third goal in a 3-1 win at Real Sociedad. This goal can only lift the winger’s self-belief after several months by the sidelines no thanks to injuries.
