Vitaly Janelt (Brentford): He obviously gets a goal – wonderful header – but I actually thought he was just the best player on the pitch in the 3-2 win at Newcastle. I agree with Jordan Henderson in the sense he should have had the man of the match but he played well, kept it simple, broke up the game, broke forward when he needed to. A real solid midfielder’s performance.

Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United): What a difference a manager makes – being able to be free, get on the ball, go wherever he wants and be creative. I think Michael Carrick takes a lot of credit for that but again, another goal for him against Spurs, another win for United – he has to go in.

Rayan (Bournemouth): He was fantastic in the draw with Aston Villa. We have to look at Lucas Digne defensively but everything he did, running forward with pace, power, direct. He caused problems throughout the day. He’s a big strong boy that gets his team up the pitch and he gets at the opposition – and Digne had no answers for him.

Dominik Szoboszlai (Liverpool): We’re going to put him in the 10 even though he played right-back, but when you score a goal like that you’re in. Unbelievable free-kick against Manchester City with pure technique to slice across the ball to make it swing from left to right and leave Donnarumma stranded.

Cole Palmer (Chelsea): His first start back under Liam Rosenior, talking about getting his fitness back up. He loses a few points because he was against a very bad Wolves team. However fantastic, a hat-trick, goals, penalties, confidence. The most important thing is he’s smiling again – that’s great for Chelsea and great for England so he deserves that, as does Rosenior for giving him that.
