Hans Vanaken
34-Year-Old
Club Brugge
Excels after injury recovery
Vanaken (thigh) went the full 90 minutes and delivered an assist in Sunday's league win over Genk.
ANALYSIS
Vanaken will likely remain one of his side's most experienced elements capable of making an impact through duel-winning and creative ability in upcoming fixtures. He was dealing with a muscular problem since his forced exit from the UCL opener on Sept. 8, but he managed to regain full fitness a couple of weeks later. His presence alongside Freddie Potts in holding midfield leaves Felix Lemarechal a step lower in the pecking order.
