The French international in action against Everton

Coming back to home soil after a turbulent period at Newcastle in the Premier League, Florian Thauvin has got back to his best for Marseille. Loved by the Velodrome crowd, Thauvin is once again producing the wonderful football that made him one of lured in Newcastle a few years ago, making the France squad for the showpiece event in Russia. Looking at how much quality and depth they have for every position, is enough to give you a picture of just how good Thauvin has been this season. In a league where Neymar and PSG often make the headlines, Florian Thauvin has been silently racking up the goals and assists in the background. In fact, a ridiculous stat to give you a clearer picture of just how good he's been lately, Thauvin finished the season with 25 goals and 13 assists in all competitions, only behind Messi, Salah, and Suarez in Europe. Now a part of Didier Deschamps's France roster, he has so far found playing time to be few and far between, but with the France team qualifying for the knockout stages, Thauvin can be a vital cog in Deschamps's system as a super-sub or even a possible starter in the near future.
