<\/div>

Following series of games in Europe this mid-week some players has shown consistency while some are still struggling and it was good to see Kun Aguero on the scoresheet after a long absence from the pitch due to injury.<\/p>\n

Some Nigerians were unplayable like Kelechi Iheanacho who let his team to a win in their first Europa League in 20 years. Napoli and Real Madrid also pulled the unexpected as both teams expected to win lost at home to Shakhtar Donetsk and AZ Alkmaar who had about 12 players out to coronavirus.<\/p>\n

In this Article, Netbet Nigeria<\/a> examines 5 players that would be a joy to watch and then the article is in no particular order.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Kelechi Iheanacho (Leicester City)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The super eagle striker has taken the spot of Jamie Vardy in their last two games and he has shown how much of a starter he could despite losing their weekend game to Aston Villa at the King Power Stadium.<\/p>\n

    Kelechi dropped a beautiful game in their Europa League game against Ukrainian side, Zorya Lugansk where he (Kelechi) scored 1 goal and provided 2 assists for fellow team mates, James Maddison and Harvey Barnes which was enough to give the Foxes all 3 points as they being their campaign in Europe.<\/p>\n

    He would also be looking to extend his beautiful run of form as his team faces Arsenal at the Emirates and getting maximum points would be their target.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Son Heung-Min (Tottenham Hotspur)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      \u201cOh my\u201d would be the only statement that can describe the Korean winger right now. Son has proved to be an important figure in Jose Mourinho\u2019s \u201cLilywhites\u201d side. Creating an assist and scoring in the space of 10 minutes against West Ham last weekend, he (Son) has shown he is much of a regular starter for his team.<\/p>\n

      Spurs started their Europa League campaign against Austrian side, LASK Linz and we saw a more dominating Tottenham which seemed more like a comfortable win for the English team and of course, Son came on as a substitute and still yet, he bagged a goal for himself<\/p>\n

      Son has now scored 9 goals in all competitions this season which means he\u2019s on the verge of double figures this at a rapid pace.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Romelu Lukaku (Inter Milan)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Big Rom has been in what we\u2019d describe as consistent for both club and country. The Belgian forward recorded 2 goals in Inter Milan\u2019s UEFA Champions League opener against German side, Borussia Monchengladbach.<\/p>\n

        The striker has now scored in a total of 6 goals in 5 games for the Nerazzurri\u00a0which is a good form and would be looking to add to his tally this weekend has they play away to Genoa.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Hauge Jens (AC Milan)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          AC Milan\u2019s manager, Stefano Pioli must have been impressed from the Norwegian wonderkid\u2019s perform in their Europa League qualifying games against Norwegian side, Bodo\/Glimt. Hauge joined AC Milan for a fee of \u20ac<\/strong>5million which seem like a steal buy.<\/p>\n

          Hauge scored 14 goals and provided 10 assists for his previous team in the 2019\/21 and he seem like a winger who can\u2019t be pushed back. He scored his first goal for AC Milan in his Europa League debut against Celtic in the 94th<\/sup> minute and as time goes on, he\u2019d gain his balance at his new club.<\/p>\n

          He\u2019s going to be a beauty to watch as the Azurris host AC Milan in their next Serie A encounter.<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Said Benrahma (West Ham)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            The Algerian just recently joined the Hammers (West Ham) on loan from Championship side, Brentford after a great 2019\/20 campaign. Benrahma was monitored closely by Arsenal as well as Chelsea this summer but failed to land the Algerian.<\/p>\n

            The 25-year-old winger made an impressive impact while at Brentford with 17 goals and 10 assist and that is quite a really good number. If handed his debut this weekend, he\u2019s probably going to steal to show and hearts of beautiful lover because of the skill he possesses and ability to take on 2 to 3 of the opposition players at once something you\u2019d call \u201cLionel Messi Esq<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

            West Ham would be hosting Manchester City at the London stadium this weekend and we\u2019d be hoping to see the Algerian play.<\/p>\n
