Midfield
Centre midfield: Pronay Halder
Another one of Mumbai City's new signings, Halder has shone brightly this season. The midfielder was at his best against Pune in the opening game and was a constant thorn in their side, regaining possession at will and keeping the tempo of the game going. Halder has formed a solid partnership with Kristian Vadocz and the duo have won midfield battles in both their opening games.
Centre midfield: Koffi Cristian N'dri
North East United have started the season strongly and sit on top of the table with Koffi Cristian playing brilliantly in shielding the defence. The defensive midfielder debuted in ISL and is already looking like an inspired buy for North East. He was their best player in the first game against Kerala and has helped North East keep two clean sheets in their three games.
Left wing: Javi Lara Grande
Grande has been crucial in Kolkata's unbeaten start to the campaign and the 31-year-old has settled well into his new team. With 5 shots on target in two games, the Spaniard has been crucial in Kolkata's attacking play in the first week of ISL 3. He has been a terrific revelation for Kolkata with more exploits expected from him in the coming games.
Right wing: Sameehg Doutie
The South African winger has taken the league by storm after two eventful outings for Kolkata. The winger has already scored one goal for ATK. Doutie constantly terrified opposition fullbacks in his opening 2 games and he looks like a player that can take Kolkata on a good run this season. His work rate was visible in both the games and he delivered a man of the match performance against Kerala Blasters.
