Max Meyer
Germany's Under-21 captain, Maximilian Meyer, is turning out to be another incredible talent from Schalke. The 20-year-old made 41 appearances for the Ruhr club last season and proved what an invaluable asset he was for the club by scoring 6 goals and assisting a further 10 more.
Meyer is best utilised as an attacking midfielder where his pace, dribbling and control of the ball come in handy especially when you're trying to open up the final third with a clever ball defenders can't get to.
Ever since Julian Draxler left the club, Meyer has the taken the responsibilities of becoming the major creator in the team and this season is just the right time for him to showcase all what he's made up of. He guided his Germany U21 side to the finals of the Rio Olympics and now can finally take Schalke up the table – a place where they rightly belong.
