Mouhamed Diop
TRO
Starts every match in midfield
Diop has started all five of Troyes' Ligue 1 matches this season in midfield as he remains an undisputed starter in the engine room.
Analysis: Diop has played 412 minutes, contributing 10 tackles, five interceptions and nine clearances to go with seven shots in five outings for the ESTAC. He has been substituted off twice, making him a regular starter through Troyes' first five games.
Decent engine for Troyes
Diop ends the season having been one of Troyes's most important midfield figures, recording three goals and two assists across 2,714 minutes in what has been a commanding campaign from the Senegalese defensive midfielder.
Analysis: Diop brings physical presence, pressing intensity and the intelligence to protect the defense while also contributing to the attacking buildup that made Troyes the best attack in Ligue 2 with 60 goals. Diop heads into Ligue 1 as the defensive foundation upon which Troyes's entire midfield is built, and his ability to compete with the technical quality of France's top midfielders will be one of the key tests of the club's Ligue 1 survival bid.
