One of the best young talents to emerge from Odisha FC is Jerry Mawihmingthanga. The midfielder has impressed everyone with his performances in the middle of the park.

In recent matches, Jerry has provided a couple of assists and has been one of the few bright spots in an otherwise drab season for the Odisha FC side. With his menacing speed on the wings, he is able to take on defenders and put in crosses for his attackers ahead.

Jerry's potential for assists makes him a good fantasy football asset to have in your Dream11 squad.

#2 Matti Steinmann

SC East Bengal's overseas import Matti Steinmann has been a key pillar in their midfield unit. Along with Irishman Anthony Pilkington, he has consistently been one of their most influential players in the middle of the park.

With a young midfield behind him, Mauricio has made the most of his limited chances and has delivered a handful of goals. In nineteen matches, Diego Mauricio found the net 11 times and provided one assist as well.
