Celtic became the first team to hold Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City

#4 Dries Mertens (Napoli)

Dries Mertens

Arkadiusz Milik has been in red-hot form for the Naples outfit ever since making the switch from Ajax in the summer. The Polish international has filled in the boots of new Juventus signing Gonzalo Higuain excellently having netted 7 goals so far this season.

Milik did indeed find the back of the net against Benfica, but it was his teammate Dries Mertens, who stole the show, with two goals to his name. The Belgian international scored the second for his side from an expertly taken free-kick from the edge of the box in the 51st minute, before adding to his tally when he bundled home from close range getting on the end of a loose ball for which Milik and Nelson Semedo were fighting.

The 29-year-old Belgian has so far netted four goals while providing a further two assists so far during the campaign.
