5 players to watch out for in the new Champions League season

#2 Leon Goretzka

Goretzka started in the match against Stuttgart for Bayern and scored his first goal for the club

The central midfielder, who can quite comfortably play as an attacking midfielder was given his first start for Bayern Munich last weekend by Niko Kovac. He justified his inclusion in the team by scoring his first league goal as a Bayern player and also setting another one up for Robert Lewandowski.

The 23-year-old midfield player is dubbed by many as the new German midfield magician. Well, he scored four goals for Schalke last season and set up further 2 for his teammates in 21 appearances. But these statistics don't do justice to his abilities, he likes to play deep and create chances, who scores them is not important to him.

But given his impressive start to his Bayern career, it only seems natural that Niko Kovac would like to utilize this young talent in the midfield now that Vidal has left for Barcelona and we can expect similar performances from this player, which would definitely be a cause of worry for the opposition defense.
