Right-Midfield – Sadio Mane – Southampton
He caused Chelsea problems last year during the 1-1 draw at St Marys, and he caused them loads of problems once again on Saturday.
This time he was rewarded greater though with a 3-1 win at Stamford Bridge and all game he was a real handful to Gary Cahill, John Terry and Branislav Ivanovic.
His pace and strength makes him a real threat to defenders and he ran the Blues‘ back-line ragged all afternoon.
Fully deserved his goal and also managed to net himself an assist for the team.
Centre-Midfield – Christian Eriksen – Tottenham Hotspur
Christian Eriksen showed his real class once again yesterday with a sensational brace against Swansea City.
The Dane was superb last season along with Harry Kane, but just like the striker, he hasn’t really shown it this season, until yesterday.
Two goals, two great-goals and a major reason why Spurs came away with a point from the Liberty Stadium.
If Eriksen can continue showing this form, Mauricio Pochettino‘s men will be a real threat to most opposition this year.
Centre-Midfield – Mesut Ozil – Arsenal
The Invisible Man. That’s how some football fans label Mesut Ozil.
Ridiculous tag for one of the most gifted footballers ever.
You can call him invisible all you want, but yesterday he was simply class against Manchester United and it was probably his best performance in an Arsenal shirt.
Got the assist for the opener and then scored himself to make it 2-0.
His vision, his grace, his technique. Everything about him oozes class.
Left-Midfield – Alexis Sanchez – Arsenal
A hat-trick last week and two this week. He’s back alright.
A stunning footballer and arguably the best in the Premier League at times.
Alexis was questioned earlier in the season due to not scoring goals or getting involved in matches, but in the past week he’s scored six goals in three games.
His first was cheeky and his second was just class.
Alexis is well and truly back.
