Another weekend of football behind us means one thing: It's time for our latest Team of the Week. Brentford's Kevin Schade stole the show with a perfect 10 rating over the weekend but who else joins him in our XI?

As always, we've chosen the team based on our internal player ratings which are determined via key statistics.

Check out our latest Team of the Week below:

Goalkeeper

Berke Ozer (Eyupspor) 8.6

It was a magnificent performance from Berke Ozer in the Eyupspor goal, singlehandedly clinching a 2-2 draw for the Super Lig debutants away at the two-time defending champions, Galatasaray.  

Galatasaray racked up a whopping 4.35xG, but Ozer stood firm, making an incredible 12 saves, including a vital late one against Kerem Demirbay. A one-man wall.

Defence

Florent Hadergjonaj (Alanyaspor) 8.6

Alanyaspor claimed a massive 2-1 victory against Trabzonspor as they look to avoid relegation from the Super Lig, and right-back Florent Hadergjonaj played an integral part in it.

Hadergjonaj scored from the penalty spot to level the game at 1-1, before producing the assist for teammate Loide Augusto's winner in the second half.

Alanayaspor also played the last 20 minutes with 10 men, but with the help of Hadergjonaj, they were able to keep their opponents at bay.

Nawaf Boushal (Al Nassr) 8.6

Nawaf Boushal has been in great form since Stefano Pioli took over, and he put in another super performance as Al Nassr eased past Damac 2-0

The Saudi was a constant menace up and down the left flank, and even provided the assist for Cristiano Ronaldo's second goal with a lovely run and pass.

Matheus Bidu (Corinthians) 9.1

Corinthians fought from two goals down to defeat Criciuma 4-2 in the Brazilian Serie A on Saturday, and flying full-back Matheus Bidu was the star of the show.

In a three-minute period in the second half, Bidu put in a cross for Rodrigo Garro to tap in, before thumping in a stunner himself from long range to level proceedings.

Midfield

Ludovic Blas (Rennes) 9.8

Jorge Sampaoli's Rennes broke a three-match losing run at the weekend in some style by battering St Etienne 5-0 in Ligue 1. The star of the show at Roazhon Park was Ludovic Blas who picked up two assists and a goal in the massive win.

The 26-year-old forward got so close to a perfect 10 rating and with four goals in the league already this season, is beginning to catch the eye.

Lucas Holer (Freiburg) 9.5

Freiburg won for the first time in five Bundesliga games on Saturday, with German midfielder Lucas Holer putting on a masterclass to down Borussia Monchengladbach 3-1.

Holer played a part in all three goals, including a clinical brace either side of Ritsu Doan's goal. A much-needed win for the team that sits sixth in the league.

Justin Kluivert (Bournemouth) 9.7

Justin Kluivert achieved a new feat over the weekend - the Bournemouth creator became the first Premier League player to score a hat-trick of penalties in a match as the Cherries beat Wolves 4-2. Incidentally, Evanilson won all three of Kluivert's spot-kicks. 

For the 25-year-old son of legendary former player Patrick, 2024/25 is turning into a coming-of-age season. The same could be said of Andoni Iraola's Bournemouth side as a whole, as they are establishing themselves as a formidable side.

Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid) 9.5

Real Madrid closed the gap on rivals Barcelona at the top of the LaLiga standings to just two points with the latter stumbling once again before Los Blancos beat Getafe 2-0 on Sunday.

Key to Real's win over their Madrid neighbours was Jude Bellingham, who cooly dispatched a first-half penalty before assisting Kylian Mbappe's strike to make it 2-0. The England star was taken off at half-time after suffering from dizziness, but his work was done.

Kevin Schade (Brentford) 10

A hat-trick and a perfect 10 rating. Now, that's what you call a breakout performance. Brentford's German attacker Kevin Schade announced himself in the Premier League over the weekend with an outstanding performance, well worthy of a perfect rating.

The Bees went behind early against Leicester on Saturday but Schade teed up Yoane Wissa's equaliser before going on to score three unanswered goals himself - all of them classy finishes. Not only were the trio Schade's first goals of the season but they were more than his total tally from last season in the Premier League. If you didn't know him, now you do!

Strikers

Alexandre Lacazette (Lyon) 9.4

The third hat-trick hero on our side this week is veteran Frenchman Alexandre Lacazette. The Lyon striker was at his lethal best on Sunday as his side smashed Nice 4-1 to leapfrog their opponents into Ligue 1's top five. 

Since moving back to from Arsenal in 2022, Lacazette has rediscovered his scoring touch, notching 27 and 19 goals in the preview two league campaigns. This season, he's on five goals from 12 matches already.

Krzysztof Piatek (Istanbul Basaksehir) 9.8

Krzysztof Piatek has bounced around clubs a bit in the last few seasons and since a big-money move to AC Milan back in 2019, it's safe to say he struggled for form and fitness. That was until he moved to Basaksehir last year.

The Pole starred for the Istanbul club last season with 17 goals and he's continued that form into this season. He scored his seventh and eighth goals of the campaign in the first half of their 4-1 win over Goztepe on Saturday.
