Last weekend, a few players have continued to step up their game culminating in their possible inclusion in this week’s FUT 21 Team of the Week (TOTW).
Included in this week’s prediction are also players who have not been particularly impressive throughout the whole season, but boasted an incredible display during last weekend’s fixtures.
Here are some of the possible names that may crop up in tomorrow’s official reveal:
FORMATION: 3-4-3
GOALKEEPER
– Alphonse Areola (Fulham, on loan from PSG) = OVR 82
~ The French shot-stopper is bound to impress his home club, PSG with his latest performance against current underwhelming champions, Liverpool. His composure to protect his team’s clean sheet should earn him a place in this week’s TOTW.
DEFENDERS
– Jordi Alba (Barcelona) = OVR 86
~ 31-year old left-back, Jordi Alba scored the first Barcelona goal in the match against Osasuna on Sunday. Even after the goal, he was relentlessly running forward to join the attack, ensuring extra bodies for Barcelona to keep up the pressure against the home side.
– Andreas Christensen (Chelsea) = OVR 79
~ The young Danish defender kept a cool head while managing Chelsea’s backline, evident by the two clean sheets kept against both Merseyside clubs, Liverpool and Everton. Chelsea won both games respectively.
– Luke Shaw (Manchester United) = OVR 81
~ Englishman, Luke Shaw continued his good form against Crystal Palace and Manchester City. He managed to get himself in the score sheet against their fierce Manchester rival too, while helping to cover his defensive colleagues superbly to maintain United’s on-going clean sheet run.
MIDFIELDERS
– Steven Berghuis (Feyenoord) = OVR 81
~ During Feyenoord’s 6-0 thumping of VVV-Venlo, the 29-year old Dutch winger played spectacularly by scoring once and assisting two, throughout the match.
– Leon Goretzka (Bayern Munich) = OVR 84
~ The German midfielder has been in excellent form throughout this season, helping Bayern maintain their title charge ahead of RB Leipzig consistently. He managed to grab a goal for himself during the German champion’s 4-2 win against Borussia Dortmund.
– Mikel Merino (Real Sociedad) = OVR 80
~ Merino scored the only goal during Real Sociedad’s 1-0 win against Levante, keeping his side close on the heels of Sevilla for the Uefa Champions’ League group stage spot.
– Lorenzo Insigne (Napoli) = OVR 85
~ The Italian forward has been a constant thorn against Napoli’s opposing teams. Throughout last week, he scored a total of three goals in two games, with Gli Azurri drawing 3-3 against Sassuolo, and winning 3-1 against Bologna.
FORWARDS
– Erling Haaland (Borussia Dortmund) = OVR 84
~ The otherworldly talented Erling Haaland scored a brace in Dortmund’s 4-2 loss against Bayern Munich. Although he couldn’t help his team against Bayern’s continuous onslaught throughout the game, his two goal heroics early on proved his gigantic mentality in playing against Europe’s top clubs.
– Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur) = OVR 88
~ English marksman, Harry Kane was in sublime form against Crystal Palace, culminating in a 4-1 win against the high-flying Eagles. He bagged two goals and assisted two more, almost cementing his place in this week’s TOTW.
– Alvaro Morata (Juventus) = OVR 82
~ The Spanish international proved his striking credentials yet again, by scoring a brace and assisting another during Juventus’ 3-1 win against Lazio.
Other possible candidates:
Pavel Kaderabak (Hoffenheim) = OVR 80
Mason Mount (Chelsea) = OVR 80
Josip Ilicic (Atalanta) = OVR 84
Erling Haaland (Borussia Dortmund) = OVR 84
