By this point of the season, almost every active team has Harry Kane in it. Indeed, not starring him when he plays is almost a guarantee to lose rank.
So, instead of pointing out the well-known points machines, bundesliga.com will now shine the spotlight on those hidden gems that could help you climb up the table…
Patrik Schick (Bayer Leverkusen), 14m
‘Better send for Paddy’ – that’s what the Anglo-German speakers are saying. Patrik Schick, whose surname roughly translates as ‘Send’, should be on everyone’s teamsheet ahead of Leverkusen’s meeting with lowly Bochum in the standalone Friday fixture. He scored his 17th goal of the season as the defending champions came from 2-0 and 3-1 down to beat VfB Stuttgart 4-3 prior to the international break, and boasts the best goals-per-minute ratio in the division (68′). Expect him to help Bayer crank up the pressure on leaders Bayern, who host St. Pauli on Saturday.
