Heiko Westermann in the "Best Eleven Of The Week"

Defender Heiko Westermann (24) of Schalke 04 was chosen amongst the best eleven players in the Bundesliga in the last week after his impressive performance against MSV Duisburg. The 2:0 away win in the derby lifted the Blues on the third position of the Bundesliga. Westermann playing as centre back for Schalke joined the club from Arminia Bielefeld in July. Schalke's manager Andreas Mueller praised the performances of the former Under 21 international of Germany by asserting that Westermann is "on the best way to international class".
