Jeffrey Schulpp - Leicester City (England) Schulpp scored the consolation goal for Leicester City at Derby County in their 2-1 defeat.

The German-born played at right-back while on trials at Manchester United and he will fit in perfectly for the role.

Baba Abdul Rahman - Greuther Furth (Germany) Was involved in one of Greuther Furth goals when they drew 2-2 against Werder Bremen.

His work-rate was far above average.

John Boye - Stade Rennes (France) Though Stade Rennes suffered a 1-0 defeat at Stade Reims, Boye won most of the tackles and limited Reims' goal attempts.

Mitch Apau - Veendam (Holland) Veendam have Apau to thank for their 2-1 victory as he made a dying-minute crucial clearance to safeguard the points.

Samuel Afum - Young Boys Bern (Switzerland) Afum's introduction in the 64th minute brought more thrust to the Young Boys side.

Had it not been Genaro Gattuso, the 23-year-old would have claimed victory for Martin Reuda's side at the STADE DE SUISSE Wankdorf Bern.

David Accam - Helsingborg IF (Sweden) The 22-year-old has promised to add something new to the Ghana attack after earning his debut call and already added two goals to his season in the Swedish FA Cup.
