After the latest round of Premier League fixtures, Richard Jolly selects his team of the week.
Goalkeeper: Adrian (West Ham)
Just edges out David de Gea, another in superlative form, for a brilliant display to preserve West Ham’s lead at the Etihad Stadium.
Right-back: Craig Dawson (West Brom)
Another clean sheet for West Brom’s misers and right-back Dawson played his part in a derby win over Aston Villa.
Centre-back: Kurt Zouma (Chelsea)
Delivered the vital opener in their win over Arsenal to get Chelsea’s stuttering season back on track.
Centre-back: Winston Reid (West Ham)
A colossus at the back as Manchester City were frustrated by the defiance of the West Ham defence.
Left-back: Brendan Galloway (Everton)
The youngster has been a revelation this season and almost opened his Everton account in the 0-0 draw at Swansea.
Right midfield: Matt Ritchie (Bournemouth)
Scored the goal of the weekend with a spectacular volley to sink Sunderland and open his top-flight account.
Centre midfield: Kevin de Bruyne (Manchester City)
Showed his class even in defeat as the £54 million man marked his first start for City with a well-taken goal.
Centre midfield: Bojan Krkic (Stoke City)
Eight months after rupturing his cruciate ligament, he returned to the scoresheet in Stoke’s 2-2 draw with Leicester.
Left midfield: Son Heung-Min (Tottenham)
The South Korean has made a superb start to his Spurs career and his third goal in two games was a well-taken winner against Palace.
Striker: Anthony Martial (Manchester United)
After his debut goal, a brace on his first league start was further evidence of why United spent £36 million on the French teenager.
Striker: Odion Ighalo (Watford)
Watford’s matchwinner for the second successive week. Ighalo’s well-taken first-half brace secured victory at Newcastle.
