Mason Greenwood on fire, Joe Willock a revelation - Premier League team of the week

Who were the best performers in the Premier League this past weekend?

• 

  Goalkeeper: Alisson (Liverpool) – Ralph Hasenhuttl lamented the “massive saves” Alisson made after his six stops helped Liverpool keep a clean sheet and beat Southampton. Reuters

• 

  Right-back: Reece James (Chelsea) – Produced a barnstorming display as he tormented Benjamin Mendy and gave Chelsea superiority on their right in the win at the Etihad Stadium. EPA

• 

  Centre-back: Cesar Azpilicueta (Chelsea) – Did not just defend terrifically to frustrate Manchester City. He also surged forward to set up Hakim Ziyech’s equaliser. Reuters

• 

  Centre-back: James Tarkowski (Burnley) – Made one brilliant goal-saving intervention and a series of other fine challenges in the win at Fulham that kept Burnley up. AFP

• 

  Left-back: Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) – Showed his talent and versatility by dropping into defence by still attacking brilliantly to inspire victory over West Brom. Reuters

• 

  Right midfield: Stuart Dallas (Leeds United) – His remarkable season just keeps getting better and Dallas’ opener against Spurs was part of a terrific display. AFP

• 

  Centre midfield: Allan (Everton) – West Ham had 68 per cent of possession but no shots on target, which helps show how well Allan did to thwart them and set up Everton’s win. AFP

• 

  Centre midfield: Joe Willock (Newcastle United) – A revelation, he scored for a fourth consecutive game to set Newcastle on their way to their best result of the season at Leicester. AFP

• 

  Left midfield: Jack Harrison (Leeds United) – Serge Aurier may not forget Harrison for a while after he ran him ragged as Leeds troubled Tottenham’s porous defence. Reuters

• 

  Centre forward: Mason Greenwood (Manchester United) – Continued his fine run of scoring form with a brilliantly taken goal to put United ahead against Aston Villa. Reuters

• 

  Centre forward: Callum Wilson (Newcastle United) – His brace helped Newcastle into a 4-0 lead at Leicester. They could not cope with him, and he has been a fine signing. Reuters

Manchester City's coronation as Premier League champions was delayed as crosstown rivals Manchester United staged a comeback win against Aston Villa.

Mason Greenwood continued his fine recent form with a a brilliantly taken goal to send United on their way to a 3-1 win at Villa Park. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side will need to beat Leicester City on Tuesday if they want to keep City's celebrations on ice a while longer.

City blew the chance to wrap up a fourth title in nine years after they suffered a 2-1 defeat at Chelsea.

The Blues' victory was largely down to the defensive efforts of Cesar Azpilicueta and Reece James, the latter giving Benjamin Mendy a torried time in attack, too.

Joe Willock's loan move to Newcastle United is proving quite the revelation after the Arsenal player scored for a fourth consecutive game to set Newcastle on their way to their best result of the season at Leicester City on Friday.
