4. Javier “ Chicharito” Hernandez (Real Madrid) - Since joining on loan Chicharito has made five appearances for Real Madrid, three in La Liga and two in the Champions League. He made his debut for Real Madrid coming on for the final 25 minutes in the Madrid derby which saw Atletico beat Real 2-1. It wasn’t the best debut as he didn’t see much of the ball and picked up a booking. Chicharito fared much better in his second game. He came off the bench to replace Gareth Bale in the 77th minute against Deportivo La Coruna and scored two goals in five minutes to seal an 8-2 victory for the Spanish giants. He also came on for the final 12 minutes of Real Madrid’s win against Elche and was an unused substitute in Real’s 2 – 0 win over Villarreal. He played just eight minutes in Real’s 5-1 victory over Basel in the Champions League. The match had already been wrapped up prior to his introduction and he didn’t really have an opportunity to add to the goal tally. He had his first start against Ludogorets but missed several chances and was replaced in the 67th minute by Karim Benzema. -Faiz
