    MARCOS ALONSO (CHELSEA) – 8.4

    When questions were posed about who would take up the goalscoring duties for Chelsea in Diego Costa’s absence, Spanish full-back Marcos Alonso was far from the first answer in anyone’s minds.

    But the player who had scored once in the Premier League prior to this weekend was instrumental in Chelsea’s 3-0 win over Leicester City, netting a superb brace.

    TOM DAVIES (EVERTON) – 8.2

    Tom Davies was largely unheard of before making his first start a couple of weeks ago, but the Everton youngster has made sure everyone will remember his name after his display against Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.

    Facing the likes of Yaya Toure, David Silva, and Kevin de Bruyne, the 18-year-old outshone them all.

    Davies played a key role in Everton’s attacking play, and didn’t shirk his defensive duties, clearing off the line from City right-back Bacary Sagna’s header to preserve Everton’s 2-0 first-half lead.

    He capped a fine all-around display by scoring Everton’s third goal.

    XHERDAN SHAQIRI (STOKE CITY) – 8.2

    Marko Arnautovic may have gotten the goals but Shaqiri was the outstanding player for Mark Hughes’ side as they ran riot at Sunderland.

    His outstanding long through pass set up Arnautovic’s first goal, and he was involved in the build-up to the second goal as well, crisply exchanging passes with Arnautovic.

    Shaqiri nearly rounded off his performance with a long-range goal, but a combination of Sunderland goalkeeper Vito Mannone and the post denied him.

    CHRISTIAN ERIKSEN (TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR) – 8.2

    The Tottenham playmaker features in the top five for the second straight Premier League gameweek, and although he goes slightly under the radar as Harry Kane and Dele Alli capture most of the attention, his importance to Mauricio Pochettino’s team cannot be understated.

    Against West Brom, Eriksen’s delightful through ball set up Kane for Spurs’ opener, and he was credited with another assist after his shot went in off of two deflections for their second.

    MICHAIL ANTONIO (WEST HAM) – 8.1

    By now, it should come as no surprise to opposition defences that Michail Antonio is capable of the sort of display he had against Crystal Palace.

    The England man assisted all three of West Ham’s goals against the Eagles as the London Stadium crowd was finally treated to an attacking display that matched its expectations. Antonio’s three assists in Saturday’s game were as many as Mesut Ozil has this entire season.
