Gauthier Hein
MTZFour shots in draw
Hein generated one shot (one on goal), five crosses (three accurate) and four corners in Sunday's 0-0 draw versus Nice.
Analysis: Hein ended the season in excellent individual form, recording eight goals and seven assists in 29 matches. Despite a difficult campaign for Metz, he consistently stood out as one of the team's brightest attacking players, finishing with 44 shots and 58 chances created. After helping Metz earn promotion from Ligue 2 and then proving himself at the Ligue 1 level this season, there is a strong possibility he could leave the club following their relegation, with a move likely appealing as he looks to continue playing at the top level.
Nine crosses, six corners
Hein recorded two shots (zero on goal), nine crosses (one accurate) and six corners in Sunday's 4-0 loss against Lorient.
Analysis: Hein has logged more than eight crosses three times across his last six appearances. That number of crosses also marks his highest in the aforementioned games. Whether or not Hein gets another goal or assist this season, it will finish on a high note for the breakout midfielder, who has 15 G/A across 36 appearances for said campaign.
Assists with cross
Hein assisted once to go with three shots (zero on goal), 13 crosses (six accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 2-1 defeat against Monaco.
Analysis: Hein's in-swinging cross from a dead ball opportunity Saturday setup the fixture's opening goal in Metz's 2-1 home loss to Monaco. Across his 90 minutes of play, the attacker created a team-high five chances from a team-high 13 cross attempts (six accurate) and four corners. Hein has played the full 90 minutes in each of his last six Ligue 1 appearances (six starts).
Logs brace and assist
Hein scored two goals and assisted once from five shots and two chances created in Sunday's 4-4 draw against Le Havre.
Analysis: Hein put in two goals for Metz on Sunday and added an assist, though the contest ended up resulting in just one point for the side. The midfielder should keep rolling against a Monaco, a team which is fighting for a Europe spot next year but has allowed 47 goals in domestic play.
