Key strength: Cutting inside
Inside forward
At 27, Robin Hack is hitting his stride as Borussia Mönchengladbach's cutting-edge inside forward. Operating from the left flank, the German winger has become integral to a Gladbach side sitting 2nd in the table - a position few predicted at season's start. With 2 goals in 5 appearances and 337 minutes of action, Hack's impact belies the raw numbers. His trademark cutting inside from the left creates constant imbalances against defenses, utilizing his 67 shooting and 63 dribbling attributes to devastating effect. Valued at €12m, he represents solid business for the club. Alongside right winger Franck Honorat (70 rating) and striker Grant-Leon Ranos in a fluid front three, Hack thrives in a system that allows him to drift centrally and test keepers. As Gladbach chase European qualification spots against the Bundesliga's heavyweights, Hack's direct approach and eye for goal could prove the difference-maker in tight contests. The Foals' recent form may be unclear, but Hack's consistency in the final third is not.
