It was believed that the January transfer window was the ideal moment to Joshua Zirkze leave Manchester United because he showed practically nothing in the first few months, but the Dutchman still has enough time to convince everyone at "Old Trafford" that they invested 50 million euros well when they brought him from Bologna.
He came Reuben Amorim instead Erika ten Haag and for Zirkze, that change may bring something good, and that he is on the right track to become an important factor in the "red devils" jersey, is shown by the duel with Everton (4:0) in which he was a double scorer.
At United, the roles have yet to be sorted out under the new manager, and at Arsenal, they are perfectly divided when he is on the pitch. Martin Edegor.
The captain was out of the field since September, he returned ten days ago and took matters into his own hands in the duels with Sporting and West Ham - the "gunners" now again look like a team capable of attacking trophies.
We present the players who marked the European football weekend:
THE GOALKEEPER
Mobs (Marseilles) - the forwards did the job in the win over Monaco, but the Argentine guarded Marseille for a long time in the derby. In the end, he saved it...
DEFENSE
Gabriel (Arsenal) - for the "gunners" a corner is a penalty - the best possible chance. Often in them the Brazilian is the main target, the rivals know it, but they cannot stop such a force - Gabriel was the scorer against West Ham, and later he also forced a penalty from a corner.
Van Dijk (Liverpool) - if Gabriel were in his place, it would probably be written about the debacle of Manchester City at "Anfield". The Dutchman dominated in defense, and on the other end, he missed two colossal chances after the break.
THE MIDDLE
Rejnders (Milan) - is currently one of the best midfielders in Serie A and with Rafaela Leaa i Kristijan Pulisic the greatest strength of the Rossoneri.
Edegor (Arsenal) - now it's clear as day - Arsenal's crisis was caused by his absence. With the return of the Norwegian, the midfield of the London team, which is catching the right rhythm, "breathed".
Diallo (Manchester United) - fans of the "devils" claim that he showed more in just over 200 minutes under the leadership of Amorim than in Ten Haag's entire tenure. The young footballer was an assistant on the Portuguese's debut, and he set up a goal twice in poker against Everton.
ATTACK
Salah (Liverpool) - is probably playing his last season in a red jersey and is determined to mark it in the right way. Nothing changes, Salah was and remains Liverpool's key player, so even City's defense didn't know what happened to the Egyptian's attacks in the derby...
Zirkze (Manchester United) - It is not too late for the Dutchman to convince Amor that he is the right man for United.
Chic (Bayer) - four goals in two games and six championship points won - when he is in the right form, the Czech plays spectacular football and seems unstoppable.
Amura (Volfsburg) - the reinforcement of the "wolves" from Belgium and the guy who easily outsmarted the defense of Leipzig in another defeat of the "bulls".
Fabio Silva (Las Palmas) - visiting Barcelona is the biggest scene and a chance to draw attention - the Portuguese from Las Palmas was great at "Montjuic", he scored the winning goal, so Real Madrid can take first place if they beat Valencia in the postponed match.
