Another international break is upon us. Atleast 6 matchdays have been played in the European Top 5 Leagues. Things are heating up and there are some very interesting surprises; Real Madrid and Barcelona are winless in their last four league matches; Bayer Munchen is going through a very bad period with their new manager Niko Kovač. They are winless in their last four matches, including three league matches and one match in the Champions League.
On the other side, there are also some teams that are playing beautifully. The biggest surprise is definitely Chelsea who are playing excellent football at the moment with their new manager Maurizio Sarri. Juventus are also playing very well and they have 8 wins in 8 matches in Serie A this season. Also, some players are taking their leagues by storm so far. Let's take a look at 5 players who are in the best form right now.
Honourable mentions: Cristiano Ronaldo (Juventus), Kylian Mbappe (Paris Saint Germain), Krzysztof Piatek (Genoa)
#5 Lorenzo Insigne (SSC Napoli)
The fifth player on this list is Napoli's Lorenzo Insigne. This summer, Napoli changed their manager as Maurizio Sarri went to Chelsea and Carlo Ancelotti came to Naples. Under Sarri, Insigne was the focal point of their attacks and under Ancelotti, the situation is the same.
The only difference is that Insigne now plays as the second striker behind Arkadasiuz Milik. He is now much closer to goal and he works less in the defence. In the 8 games in Seria A this season, Insigne has scored six goals and he also has one assist. For comparison, Insigne scored 8 goals in Serie A last season.
Also, Insigne scored the winning goal against Liverpool in the Champions League this past week. It's obvious that Ancelotti is getting the best out of Insigne and he should easily break the 20-goal mark for the first time in his career. His form will be the key for Napoli's results this season.
#4 Neymar (Paris Saint Germain)
Unai Emery couldn't deliver European glory for Paris Saint-Germain so they decided to part ways with him. This summer, Thomas Tuchel became their new manager and he has made some big changes in the tactical way of playing. For example, he has switched Neymar to a No.10 position and it looks like this is a very good idea.
PSG lack creativity in their midfield especially when Veratti doesn't play. So, Neymar often drops deep to help in the organisation. Also, he is a constant threat for opposition defenders. So far this season Neymar has scored 12 goals and provided 6 assists in all competitions and Tuchel has said that the best from Neymar is yet to come.
#3 Suso (AC Milan)
It looks like Milan are out of their crisis. In the last 3 matches in all competitions, they have 3 victories. The main man behind these victories has been Suso. Suso is in electrifying form since the beginning of the season and he has been selected in Spain's squad for upcoming games against Wales and England.
Yesterday, Suso had 3 assists against Chievo, making that 6 assists in Serie A this season and only Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund has more assists in the top 5 European leagues. Higuain and Suso are Gatusso's two most important players and when they are fully synced they will be one of the most lethal duos in Italy. Suso is, in our opinion, the third player with the best form in Europe right now.
#2 Lionel Messi (FC Barcelona)
Barcelona are in bad form right now. They are winless in their last four games in La Liga. The only bright spot in their squad is Lionel Messi. This squad is unimaginable without him and he is carrying the team at the moment. The Camp Nou teamq have some evident problems in their squad. For example, their midfield is so predictable and they lack creativity.
Their only creative force in the squad is Messi and he often must drop deep in the midfield to start an attack. In 8 La Liga matches this season, Messi scored 6 goals and also provided 4 assists. He is in a brilliant form but there is a player in a better form than him.
#1 Eden Hazard (Chelsea FC)
Without a single doubt, Eden Hazard is the player with the best form in Europe. Right now, Eden Hazard is by far the best player in the Premier League. This summer, Antonio Conte left Chelsea and Maurizio Sarri came to replace him and Sarri's Napoli has been one of the most interesting teams in Europe to watch.
He has also applied his playing style in England and Eden Hazard is thriving in that system. After 8 matches played in Premier League this season, Eden Hazard has 7 goals and 3 assists. If he continues with this form, then Chelsea surely can battle for the silverware this season. On the other side, Chelsea board must do everything to keep him in their squad.
