Angel Di Maria, Paris Saint-Germain

Di Maria's latest in-form boost sees him hit the 90 mark for pace, passing and dribbling, while his shooting is up to 88.

The Argentinian has blown hot and cold at times this season for PSG but was brilliant as he netted both goals in the French giants' 2-0 away league win at Angers.

Per French football expert Jonathan Johnson, it was a tough fixture for the defending champions as they looked to keep the pressure on Ligue 1 leaders Monaco:

And Di Maria stepped up when he was really needed, scoring his first from a free-kick and finishing off a counter-attack late on to secure the points for Unai Emery's side.

Per WhoScored.com, they were only his fourth and fifth league goals of the campaign, but they came at a crucial time, and his in-form boost is much merited. 

Isco, Real Madrid

Isco was instrumental as Real managed to maintain their three-point lead at the top of La Liga thanks to a narrow 3-2 win away at struggling Sporting Gijon.

He was on the scoresheet twice, the second a 90th-minute winner from the edge of the box, with his low shot nestling in the corner to prevent a weakened Real side—without Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema—from dropping points.

The 24-year-old Spaniard's first of the game came after delightful footwork in the penalty area and drew Los Blancos level at 1-1 after 17 minutes.

Per Squawka, his running on the ball was brilliant against Sporting:

No surprise then that his latest in-form card—his fifth inclusion in a FUT 17 Team of the Week—sees his dribbling boosted to heady 93, while his shooting is now rated at 91 and his passing 92.

Vincent Kompany, Manchester City

Kompany made only his fourth start of 2016-17 in the Premier League against Southampton and showed manager Pep Guardiola exactly what he has been missing while the Belgian centre-back has been injured. 

As well as heading City's 55th-minute opener in an eventual 3-0 win, he also showed trademark composure in his defensive role, a trait that has been often missing in Guardiola's back line this term.

Kompany's leadership is so vital to City that they would arguably be competing for the title had he not been so troubled by injuries again this season.

The Belgian made it clear after the match how motivated he remains, which can only be good news for the Sky Blues, per BT Sport Football:

His inclusion in Team of the Week 31 sees his defensive attribute boosted from 86 to 89, while he is now rated 84 for physicality.
