Premier League team of the week: Chelsea, Tottenham, Man City and Liverpool sign off in style


Richard Jolly

Chelsea showed why they are champions as Tottenham Hotspur striker retains the Golden Boot with a ridiculous seven goals in his final two games.

To see who else made Richard Jolly’s team of the week swipe left/right on your browser.

Goalkeeper: Jack Butland (Stoke City)

Southampton recorded six shots on target at St Mary’s. Butland kept all out as Stoke’s season ended on a winning note and with a clean sheet.

Right-back: Hector Bellerin (Arsenal)

His early goal against Everton raised hopes of a top-four finish and may at least secure the Spaniard a place in next week’s FA Cup final line-up.

Centre-back: Gabriel (Arsenal)

Arsenal had to play with 10 men and without their best defender for 75 minutes against Everton, but Gabriel compensated for Laurent Koscielny’s red card.

Centre-back: James Collins (West Ham United)

Wins at Turf Moor have been hard to secure this season. Collins was a rock at the back as his side beat Burnley.

Left-back: Ben Davies (Tottenham Hotspur)

Scored his first Premier League goal for Tottenham from long range as he helped them finish in style by thrashing Hull City 7-1.

Right midfield: Willian (Chelsea)

Got Chelsea back on track with the equaliser against Sunderland as the champions went on to rout the relegated side 5-1.

Centre midfield: Kevin de Bruyne (Manchester City)

Two more assists took him to a league-best 18 and his pass for Sergio Aguero’s first goal at Watford was delightful

Centre midfield: Georginio Wijnaldum (Liverpool)

Hammered the goal that put Liverpool ahead against Middlesbrough and in effect guaranteed their top-four finish.

Left midfield: Josh Harrop (Manchester United)

The 21-year-old midfielder marked his Manchester United debut with the opening goal in the 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace.

Striker: Sergio Aguero (Manchester City)

A double at Watford took Aguero to 33 goals, his best total for City, and made it even better news he is staying at the Etihad.

Striker: Harry Kane (Tottenham)

Finished the season with a ridiculous seven goals in four days to become just the fifth player to retain the Golden Boot.

What is tokenisation?

Tokenisation refers to the issuance of a blockchain token, which represents a virtually tradable real, tangible asset. A tokenised asset is easily transferable, offers good liquidity, returns and is easily traded on the secondary markets. 

Key figures in the life of the fort

Sheikh Dhiyab bin Isa (ruled 1761-1793) Built Qasr Al Hosn as a watchtower to guard over the only freshwater well on Abu Dhabi island.

Sheikh Shakhbut bin Dhiyab (ruled 1793-1816) Expanded the tower into a small fort and transferred his ruling place of residence from Liwa Oasis to the fort on the island.

Sheikh Tahnoon bin Shakhbut (ruled 1818-1833) Expanded Qasr Al Hosn further as Abu Dhabi grew from a small village of palm huts to a town of more than 5,000 inhabitants.

Sheikh Khalifa bin Shakhbut (ruled 1833-1845) Repaired and fortified the fort.

Sheikh Saeed bin Tahnoon (ruled 1845-1855) Turned Qasr Al Hosn into a strong two-storied structure.

Sheikh Zayed bin Khalifa (ruled 1855-1909) Expanded Qasr Al Hosn further to reflect the emirate's increasing prominence.

Sheikh Shakhbut bin Sultan (ruled 1928-1966) Renovated and enlarged Qasr Al Hosn, adding a decorative arch and two new villas.

Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan (ruled 1966-2004) Moved the royal residence to Al Manhal palace and kept his diwan at Qasr Al Hosn.

Going grey? A stylist's advice

If you’re going to go grey, a great style, well-cared for hair (in a sleek, classy style, like a bob), and a young spirit and attitude go a long way, says Maria Dowling, founder of the Maria Dowling Salon in Dubai.
It’s easier to go grey from a lighter colour, so you may want to do that first. And this is the time to try a shorter style, she advises. Then a stylist can introduce highlights, start lightening up the roots, and let it fade out. Once it’s entirely grey, a purple shampoo will prevent yellowing.
“Get professional help – there’s no other way to go around it,” she says. “And don’t just let it grow out because that looks really bad. Put effort into it: properly condition, straighten, get regular trims, make sure it’s glossy.”

Brief scores:

Toss: Nepal, chose to field

UAE 153-6: Shaiman (59), Usman (30); Regmi 2-23

Nepal 132-7: Jora 53 not out; Zahoor 2-17
