Transfers for GW5:

TRANSFER 1
JULIAN BRANDT OUT, JAMAL MUSIALA IN

Musiala returned from injury and started the game against Man Utd in the UCL, showing great attacking threat from midfield. He created a lot of chances for Kane, Sane and also got an assist in the game. A favorable matchup against Bochum makes him an essential midfielder to own this gameweek.

TRANSFER 2
LUKAS KÜBLER OUT, HIROKI ITO IN

Stutgart have been one of the teams in form in the Bundesliga and will be playing against newly promoted Darmstadt. Ito plays as a left back and is involved in attacks from the left. His attacking threat along with high tackles makes him a good pick against Darmstadt where he is expected to keep a clean sheet.

TRANSFER 3
NATHAN NGOUMOU OUT, JAN-NIKLAS BESTE IN

Beste has been in electrifying form at the start of the season, scoring a goal and assisting another against Bremen last matchday. He seems to be the talisman of the team and although he has a tough matchup against Leverkusen, Beste seems to be the man most likely to be involved if Heidenheim get on the board.
