Kylian Mbappe - Takes five shots in win Mbappe had five shots (one on target), one chance created and seven dribbles in Saturday's 2-0 win over Montpellier.

Impact Mbappe had a decent display here but was a bit ineffective with his opportunities and has been kept scoreless now in four consectuive outings. He's still with four goals and four assists already and his production in peripheral stats should get him back to scoring ways very soon.

Angel Di Maria - Assists in win over Montpellier Di Maria tallied one assist, one shot (off target), five chances created, four crosses (one accurate), two dribbles and five corners in Saturday's 2-0 win over Montpellier.

Impact Di Maria delivered a vintage performance and grabbed his first major contribution since August. He's now sitting at one goal and two assists in five appearances (three starts) and the absence of Leo Messi allows him to gain consistent playing time. He's lost some of his corners to Neymar of late though.

Neymar - Assists in win over Montpellier Neymar tallied one assist, three shots (one on target), four crosses (none accurate), two fouls drawn, three corners and five dispossessions in Saturday's 2-0 win over Montpellier.

Impact Neymar is firing up on all cylinders and continues his prolific run with his third straight outing with a major contribution as he's mounted one goal and two assists over that span. He's also taken over a lot of the corners from Angel Di Maria.

Defender Achraf Hakimi showing PSG fans his scoring prowess

While Paris Saint-Germain fans eagerly await see superstar Lionel Messi’s first goal for his new club they have already witnessed Achraf Hakimi’s remarkable scoring prowess

SEPTEMBER 23, 2021 • Associated Press

Achraf Hakimi - Fires in brace in 2-1 victory Hakimi scored twice on three shots (two on target) and delivered one inaccurate cross in Wednesday's 2-1 win over Metz.

Impact Hakimi was absolutely brilliant in this one with two clinical finishes. Specifically his second goal - the stoppage-time winner - was a spectacular long-range curler in the far post. With three goals, two assists and two clean sheets already in just seven starts the full-back has been a fantasy revelation thus far.

Neymar - Assists late winner midweek Neymar tallied one assist, three shots (off target), three chances created, five crosses (none accurate), four dribbles and two fouls drawn in Wednesday's 2-1 win over Metz.

Impact Neymar was involved in both goals for his club. He set up Achraf Hakimi for the late winner directly and had a brilliant pass in the build up to the first Parisians' goal. The playmaker has now a major contribution in back to back outings while amassing five shots, six chances created, 11 crosses and nine fouls drawn over the same span and seems to be at his optimal form already.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Marquinhos - Allows goal in win over Metz Marquinhos had one chance created, three clearances and 111 passes completed in Wednesday's 2-1 win over Metz.

Impact Marquinhos delivered another less-than-perfect performance as that continues to lead to goals in his own net and he's now recorded three straight matches without a shutout while only holding two clean sheets in five matches. He hasn't been much better in peripheral stats either outside of clearances.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Georginio Wijnaldum - Quiet in win over Metz Wijnaldum had two shots (off target), one tackle won and 43 passes completed in Wednesday's 2-1 win over Metz.

Impact Wijnaldum continues with his subpar performance and was yet again invisible for wide stretches of the game. He's also been a disappointment in fantasy and it's hard to trust him in any format at the moment.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Kylian Mbappe - Takes three shots in victory Mbappe had three shots (one on target), four chances created, two dribbles and three fouls drawn in Wednesday's 2-1 win over Metz.

Impact Mbappe snapped his incredible run of at least one goal or one assist in each game this season. Going back to last season he made eight consecutive outings with a major contribution. The starlet though was still at his usual level here and recorded another solid stat line in terms of peripheral stats. He's sitting at four goals and three assists across all competitions.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Mauro Icardi - Creates two chances versus Metz Icardi had one shot (on target), two chances created and one foul committed in Wednesday's 2-1 win over Metz.

Impact Icardi was given the nod for his first start since August. He was active and almost bagged his fourth goal of the season but his shot was cleaned up from the goal line just before Achraf Hakimi finds the net from that same clearance. Icardi has been clinical when on the pitch but a loaded squad will surely limit his playing opportunities significantly.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Keylor Navas - Makes one save in 2-1 win Navas made one save in Wednesday's 2-1 win over Metz.

Impact Navas had little work in this one and his failure to keep a clean sheet will give him a bad fantasy day. While he's kept at least four saves in three of his six starts only one clean sheet in that span limits his overall fantasy production a bit. He'll likely remain in a consistent rotation with Gigi Donnarumma.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Angel Di Maria - Takes two shots off bench Di Maria had two shots (one on target), four crosses (none accurate) and two corners in 25 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 2-1 win over Metz.

Impact Di Maria was extremely active off the bench as Parisians were desperately chasing late victory. The winger has been in a good form and productive in a plethora of categories including notching a goal and an assist already but the Parisians' loaded squad will surely force him to the bench occasionally.
