Swiss mercenaries: Kobel hexes, Okafor scores again

Noah Loosli (Bochum): Bochum clearly loses the crisis match against Gladbach. Loosli plays no role. He’s not even on the couch.

Cédric Zesiger (Wolfsburg): Unlike a week ago, he is back in the starting eleven. And scored the first goal in the 2-0 win against Frankfurt. He was warned in the 73rd minute.

Gregor Kobel (Dortmund): The BVB captain was one of the best in the 3-1 away win against Hoffenheim. The opponents fired fifteen shots on goal, but were only defeated with a penalty kick.

Nico Elvedi (Gladbach): Is in the starting eleven against Bochum. Replace after 64 minutes.

Jonas Omlin (Gladbach): The Gladbach captain will be out at least until the end of the year after shoulder surgery.

Kevin Mbabu (Augsburg): Despite the bankruptcy in Freiburg, he is one of the best in Augsburg. Very active on the right wing. Plays on.

Ruben Vargas (Augsburg): Freiburg doesn’t give him much space, so he can’t play to his strengths. Stamps out in the 57th minute.

Silvan Widmer (Mainz): Still missing due to his ankle injury.

Edimilson Fernandes (Mainz): After about an hour he took the free kick with a tackle, making the score 0-2. Fernandes also sees a yellow card for the violation. And it’s not a successful performance on his part either.

Granit Xhaka (Leverkusen): Against Mainz he received a yellow card after just four minutes. This allows him to put on a decent performance – without standing out. He stopped in the 79th minute.

Filip Stojilkovic (Darmstadt): The Lilies celebrate their first win of the season in the Bundesliga. Stojilkovic plays no role in this. He’s not on the team.

Leonidas Stergiou (Stuttgart): He is still waiting for his Bundesliga debut for VfB. He watched the 2-0 win over Cologne from the bench.

Manuel Akanji (Man City): Quite surprisingly, the Citizens lose 1:2 to Wolverhampton. Akanji plays in central defense.

Zeki Amdouni (Burnley): Had a lot of opportunity to excel in the defeat against Newcastle (0-2). Get a yellow card for that. Had to go down after a good hour when the score was 0-1. The goal is then scored via a penalty, making the final result in favor of the Magpies.

Fabian Schär (Newcastle): The central defender continues to play as usual, but is not really challenged by the opponent.

Eray Comert (Nantes): Played again in central defense and was not responsible for all three goals conceded in the 3-1 defeat in Rennes.

Yvon Mvogo (Lorient): Lorient is sinking deeper and deeper into crisis. The 0:3 against Montpellier is the fourth game in a row without a win. The Nati keeper conceded 13 goals.

Becir Omeragic (Montpellier): Montpellier kept a clean sheet for the second time with a 3-0 win in Lorient – ​​thanks in part to Omeragic. The former FCZ defender was given a permanent place and things have been going well for the southern French team ever since.

Vincent Sierro (Toulouse): Not in the starting lineup in the 3-0 win against Metz for the second time in a row. Enters in the 65th minute when the score is 2-0.

Breel Embolo (Monaco): The Nati attacker will probably only be available at the end of this year after he tore his cruciate ligament in the summer.

Philipp Köhn (Monaco): The match against Marseille started very badly for the goalkeeper, as the ball rolled into the goal after 30 seconds via the post and Köhn’s back. In the end, Monaco still wins and is the new leader.

Denis Zakaria (Monaco): Played in midfield again in the 3-2 win against Marseille and was only taken off by Adi Hütter in stoppage time to gain time.

Fabian Rieder (Rennes): On the starting grid for the first time during his fifth appearance for Rennes. Goes off in the 71st minute for Doué, who scores the decisive 2-1 win against Nantes two minutes later.

Jordan Lotomba (Nice): Comes on as a substitute midway through the second half in the 0-0 draw against Brest. Nice is still undefeated and has only conceded four goals.

Ricardo Rodriguez (Turin): Plays on Monday evenings.

Noah Okafor (Milan): A noble reservist. Comes against Lazio in the 69th minute when the score is 1-0 to Giroud. Twenty minutes later he decided the match with his second goal in three days. Okafor has finally arrived in Milan.

Michel Aebischer (Bologna): Started on the bench in the flawless win against Empoli, replacing Freuler in the 67th minute. As usual, he seems calm and focuses on the simple things. Do it with confidence.

Remo Freuler (Bologna): Receives the worst rating of his team from several newspapers in Italy. Despite everything, he is slowly getting into the rhythm and internalizing coach Thiago Motta’s game idea.

Dan Ndoye (Bologna): On the left side it appears swirly as usual. It just doesn’t work with the first scorer point. After 87 minutes he is off work.

Yann Sommer (Inter): Stayed clean again in the flawless 4-0 away win against Salernitana. It is already the fifth clean sheet in seven Serie A matches for the Nati goalkeeper.

Silvan Hefti (Genoa): Not used in the 2-2 draw against Udinese.

Miro Muheim (Hamburg): The former FCZ junior and St. Gallen professional played as a left back in the 1-0 win against Düsseldorf. This means that Hamburg now leads the rankings with the same number of points as St. Pauli.

Jasper van der Werff (Rostock): After three defeats in a row, the established central defender is putting his team back on the road to success. He scored the only goal against Braunschweig (1-0).

Jan Elvedi (Kaiserslautern): The twin brother of Nati star Nico is an undisputed regular and is still at the top of the table with Kaiserslautern after the 2-2 draw against Osnabrück.

Saulo Decarli (Braunschweig): In the 2nd Bundesliga he commutes between the field, the bench and the stands. In the last match he was on the bench in the 0-1 defeat against Rostock.

Carlo Brunner (Schalke): The former FCZ player is also a regular player after Schalke’s relegation. Things are still not going according to plan for him on the field. Schalke lost 3-1 in the away match in Paderborn.

Martin Angha (Wehen-Wiesbaden): Came to the newly promoted team as an unemployed person and is an undisputed regular player there. In the match against Hannover 96 he was noticed quite negatively and received a yellow card. The 0-2 defeat cannot be averted.

Haris Tabakovic (Hertha Berlin): His goal instinct left much to be desired in the match against St. Pauli (1:2). He fails to score. He is substituted in the 80th minute.

Djibril Zeug (Sevilla FC): Belongs to the permanent force in midfield at Sevilla. He was also used until the 66th minute in the top match against FC Barcelona. Just ten minutes after he came on, the Blaugranas scored their only goal of the match.

Christian Fassnacht (Norwich): Stop the sporting decline with his team (most recently three defeats in a row in all competitions). Subbed after 1-0 in the 2-0 home win against Birmingham.

Simon Sohm (Parma): Prepared the 2-1 winning goal against Cremonese, after which he was substituted. Indispensable in the attacking midfield for the leader.

Pajtim Kasami (Sampdoria): Substituted in the 78th minute when all the goals had already been scored. Due to the 1:2 at home against Catanzaro, the team, relegated from Serie A, dropped to the penultimate place.

Charles Pickel (Cremonese): Watches the 1:2 against Sohms Parma from the bench. Not used for the third time in the eighth league match.

Michael Frey (Antwerp): Zero minutes played this season. Has no future with the Belgian champion, who draws 0-0 for the third time in a row – this time in Mechelen.

Stefan Knezevic (Charleroi): Enters the field in the 63rd minute after recovering from a knee injury in the 1:3 defeat against Saint-Gilloise. His team did not concede a goal in the second half.

Leo Seydoux (Westerlo): Once again not in the selection when they played away from home against Genk, after being 3-1 behind they scored 3-3. Despite winning points, Westerlo is now at the bottom.

Cameron Puertas (Saint-Gilles): Positioned in the attacking midfield of the new leader. Provided two assists in the 3-1 home win against Charleroi.

Andi Zeqiri (Genk): Enters in the 63rd minute as his decimated team leads 3-2 against Westerlo. The match ends 3-3, Genk’s third championship tie in a row.

Steven Zuber (AEK Athens): Guest at Baumanns Crete on Monday evening.

Noam Baumann (OFI Crete): Host Zubers Athene on Monday evening.

Petar Pusić (Osijek): Not in the selection for the 0-1 win against Koprivnica.

Josip Drmic (Dinamo Zagreb): After his hat-trick last week, he is on the bench and cannot prevent the 0-1 defeat against Hajduk Split after his substitution at half-time.

Gokhan Inler (Besiktas Istanbul): Still waiting for his first appearance this season after moving to Besiktas.

Albian Ajeti (Gaziantep FK): Shortly before the end, he came on as a substitute in the 2-1 win over Samsunspor.

Marco Burch (Legia Warsaw): Was in the starting line-up for the first time in the 2-0 defeat against Bialystok, but was sent off the field shortly before the end with a yellow and red card.

Oliver Buff (Vilnius): His team took the lead shortly before half-time in the 2-0 away win against Suduva Marijampole.

Haris Seferovic (Al Wasl): Shoots his team into a 2-0 lead with a double in the first seven minutes against Khor Fakkan. In the end, Al-Wasl only managed to get one point, as the home team equalized in the 91st minute.

Xherdan Shaqiri (Chicago Fire): There he is again. With his magical foot he ensures a 1-0 win against New York after a set piece. It is the first victory after seven failed attempts in a row.

Maren Haile-Selassie (Chicago Fire): He continued to watch the match from the bench until the 52nd minute. The attacking player then intervenes in the game and defends the narrow lead until the end.

Roman Bürki (St. Louis): The former classification goalkeeper is the undisputed goalkeeper. Despite conceding a goal against Kansas City, his team won easily 4-1. St. Louis comfortably leads the table with a ten-point lead.
