Centre-Back – Winston Reid – West Ham United
The West Ham shock-train keeps on rolling.
Wins at Emirates, Anfield and now the Etihad Stadium. Unreal form from Slaven Bilic‘s men.
After picking up a 2-1 win against Manchester City on Saturday, a lot of praise was heaped upon Bilic and his men, but for us it was Winston Reid that stood out.
Rock solid at the back once again and proving to be a massive part of the Hammers‘ side.
They’ll be grateful they fended off Arsenal a couple of years ago.
Centre-Back – Kurt Zouma – Chelsea
Kurt Zouma makes the team for his breakthrough goal against Arsenal on Saturday.
The big Frenchman was perfectly found by Cesc Fabregas and he headered home past former-Blue Petr Cech.
The goal brought a massive sigh of relief around Stamford Bridge, who were playing against 10-men following Gabriel Paulista‘s dismissal.
Are Chelsea finally seeing into the future with Zouma playing regularly?
Centre-Back – Russel Martin – Norwich City
You’ve probably seen the image going around social media about Russel Martin‘s hectic weekend.
Well if you haven’t, he had to drive from Liverpool back to Norwich to see the birth of his son, before flying back to Liverpool with the club’s directors and then scoring the leveler for the Canaries against Brendan Rodgers‘ men at Anfield.
In truth, Martin actually had a poor game and was guilty for Danny Ings‘ goal after needlessly giving away possession, but after scoring the equaliser, he certainly made up for his error.
A very successful day for the Scottish defender.
