    DELE ALLI (TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR) – 8.5

    After being rather underwhelming all season and scoring just thrice in 16 games, Dele Alli has burst into life over the festive period.

    He followed up a goal against Burnley with three consecutive braces, the latest of which came against title favourites Chelsea.

    Alli’s two goals for Spurs against their London rivals were almost identical as he nodded home two crosses from Christian Eriksen, ending Chelsea’s hopes of equalling Arsenal’s record of 14 consecutive Premier League wins.

    DANNY ROSE (TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR) – 7.6

    The English international tirelessly overlapped down the left flank, forcing Victor Moses to spend more time in his own half than the opposition’s.

    He was solid in defence and his lively display helped facilitate Tottenham’s attacks.

    CHRISTIAN ERIKSEN (TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR) – 7.6

    The Dane was the best player on the pitch against Chelsea. He was at the heart of everything Spurs created and his deliveries for Alli’s goals were sublime.

    Eriksen can be proud of that performance and is turning into a player Mauricio Pochettino can count on as well.

    GARETH MCAULEY (WEST BROM) – 7.5

    A defender’s ability to chip in with a goal on a regular basis should never be taken for granted. Apart from marshaling the defence and being a leader on the pitch, the 37-year-old’s knack of finding the back of the net comes as a welcome bonus for Tony Pulis.

    His goal against Hull City gave the Baggies the lead and enabled them to go on to a 3-1 win.

    SERGIO AGUERO (MANCHESTER CITY) – 7.5

    You can never write off Sergio Aguero. After a dismal performance against Liverpool, the striker found himself on the bench for Burnley’s visit to the Etihad.

    He made an immediate impact as a second half substitute though, as he gave City’s ten men an edge in attack. His goal from a seemingly impossible angle with two defenders on the line proved to be decisive in his side’s 2-1 win.
