They made their own luck. These are the players that were instrumental in their team’s performance over the past weekend.
As it is with every other week, picking the outright brightest star is never easy, and sometimes blinding. There were many bright spots over the weekend, but these are the men that were able to make our list.
The final shortlist for #SOTW included…
Niclas Füllkrug (Hannover 96 vs Mainz 05) – German Bundesliga
James Rodriguez (Bayer Leverkusen vs Bayern Munich) – German Bundesliga
Mohamed Salah (Liverpool vs Manchester City) – English Premier League
Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur vs Everton) – English Premier League
Pablo Fornals (Real Madrid vs Villarreal) – Spanish La Liga
Marko Arnautovic (Huddersfield Town vs West Ham United)
But the SOTW will have to go to
Luis Suarez (Real Sociedad vs Barcelona) – Spanish La Liga
His two goals drove Barcelona to an away victory against Real Sociedad. – A victory that keeps FC Barcelona undefeated and ensured that the gap in points between them and the chasing pack did not reduce.
