The attacker made nine starts in the second half of last season having transferred from Paris Saint-Germain in January.

Hwang Hee-chan - Scores consolation goalHwang Hee-Chan came off the bench to score with his only shot and created one chance in Saturday's 4-1 loss to Brighton.

ImpactHwang Hee-Chan was subbed on after 55 minutes with the game already lost and scored a consolation goal when he headed in a corner. The striker will hope to build on the 12 starts he managed last season and he may get opportunities to impress as his team look short of goals and have wasted a great deal of chances in the opening two games.

Jose Sa - Concedes fourSa conceded four goals and made four saves in Saturday's 4-1 loss to Brighton.

ImpactSa had an afternoon to forget, but was not at fault for any of the goals with the opposition clinical in front of goal. Sa has conceded five time and made six saves in the opening two games and next comes up against Everton on Saturday.

Julio Enciso - Two assists in victoryEnciso assisted two goals and attempted four shots (one on target) before being substituted after a heavy challenge in Saturday's 4-1 win over Wolves.

ImpactEnciso, who came into the starting XI at the expense of Joao Pedro, set up two very similar goals for Solomon Match. His injury went unmentioned in the post-match media rounds, but he seemed to be in discomfort as he left the pitch after a strong tackle. Enciso and Pedro are set to fight each other for the number-ten role this season and the Brazilian will start if Enciso cannot recover for Saturday's game against Newcastle.

Kaoru Mitoma - Scores wonder goalMitoma scored once with his only shot and registered one assist from four chances created in Saturday's 4-1 win versus Wolves.

ImpactMitoma opened the scoring when he picked up the ball in midfield and beat several defenders before finishing clinically into the far corner. The winger struggled for goals and assists towards the end of last season, but he has hit the ground running with three goal involvements in the first two fixtures. He ranks joint first for chances created (at the time of writing) with nine.

Pervis Estupinan - Scores and assistsEstupinan scored once from two shots (one on target) and registered one assist from two chances created in Saturday's 4-1 win over Wolves.

ImpactEstupinan assisted Kaoru Mitoma for the opener, before powering in the second from inside the area. With only two games gone, Estupinan already has three attacking returns from the left-back position. However, Brighton now face a run of trickier fixtures in which he might have to give more focus to his defensive responsibilities.

Solly March - Scores braceMarch scored twice from five shots (four on target) and attempted four crosses (none accurate) in Saturday's 4-1 win against Wolves.

ImpactMarch followed up his goal in the opening game with two more, which both came from close range after being set up by Julio Enciso. The winger created one goal-scoring opportunity and was not afraid to do his far share of defensive work, winning three of his four tackles.
