LaLiga 2017/2018, Team of the Week (Matchday 4): Borja Mayoral steps up for Real Madrid

Defenders

Alejandro Galvez scored the only goal against Leganes

#2 Alvaro Odriozola (Real Sociedad)

The young wing-back was constantly on the front foot, looking to get forward on the overlap and cause problems for Real Madrid's Theo Hernandez.

But for the physicality of the Frenchman, he would have had plenty more luck in getting to the byline. His link-up play and pace were key to bringing Real Sociedad upfield in a tough game.

#3 Djene (Getafe)

Didn't give Luis Suarez much of a sniff in his side's 2-1 loss to Barcelona. If he were a little taller, there is no doubt that he would be seen as a central-defensive colossus in LaLiga.

Excellent in one-on-one situations, as well as physical enough to hold his own in aerial duels, Djene was a thorn in Barca's side offensively. He is a key part of Bordalas' unit.

#4 Ximo Navarro (Las Palmas)

After impressing on his league debut against Valencia, Ximo Navarro fell victim to Manolo Marquez choosing to chop and change things in his back four to try and find the right balanced.

Against Athletic Bilbao, he featured brilliantly once again, looking much more at home at centre back than his previous seasons spent at full-back. He reads the game well and isn't afraid to make a last-ditch intervention.

#5 Alejandro Galvez (Eibar)

Responsible for one of the most audacious goals of the weekend, as the Eibar defender started a move off himself, before proceeding to get in the box for the cross.

His thumping header was the key difference in Los Armeros' 1-0 win over Leganes, and he seemed to enjoy the combative and rainy nature of the contest at a damp Ipuarua.
