Jake O’Brien (Everton): He doesn’t get much credit but, for a young man to go in at Everton, having never played much under Sean Dyche and then deliver the performances he has been doing week in and week out has been excellent. He gets the equaliser, which was huge for him and for Everton and keeps their unbeaten run going.

Matthijs de Ligt (Manchester United): Growing more and more as

Bruno Fernandes: How important is midfielder to Manchester United as Ruben Amorim asks for ‘more’ like him

Fernandes is now United’s top Premier League goalscorer this season with seven. His 12 in all competitions also puts him at the head of United’s scoring charts.

But it doesn’t end there.

In a United side that is 14th in the table, Fernandes has 14 goal involvements in the league. Unsurprisingly, that is more than anyone else.

But only Amad has more than Marcus Rashford’s five, which underlines how important

Manchester United staged a late comeback before being saved by VAR in a dramatic draw at Everton after looking set to plunge deeper into crisis at Goodison Park.

Everton’s resurgence under their returning manager David Moyes – formerly of United – looked set to continue as they exerted total domination in the first 45 minutes to establish a deserved two-goal lead.

They exposed every United flaw in that opening half,

Bruno Fernandes (captain), Manchester United, £8.3m – home to Southampton

Fernandes has four goals and seven assists this season (along with two red cards) and he is chugging along as the 10th best midfielder this season.

Seasoned FPL players know the Portuguese has many avenues to points – his xGI is always high and he’s on penalties.

Look at what he did against strugglers Leicester and Everton at home –

A combination of the number of players leaving for international duty this week, and some of those not called up being given time off, means that it will be largely those who are injured that Amorim first gets to see when he reports for duty at United’s Carrington training complex.

It means the fact United need a couple of days to secure his work visa is not too much of

Mohamed Salah (Liverpool): He’s just excellent, isn’t he? Every time I think he’s going to slow down or he’s ready to leave he gets better and better. He gets another goal and assist in a huge weekend for Liverpool, after Manchester City lost. It was an opportunity for Liverpool to kick on and they were excellent against Aston Villa.

Matheus Cunha (Wolves): There are few games I have been to

Bruno Fernandes marked his 250th Manchester United appearance by playing a starring role as Ruud van Nistelrooy signed off his stint in interim charge with a 3-0 Premier League win over Leicester.

Fernandes scored the opener and claimed a second – which went down as a Viktor Kristiansen own goal – before setting up Alejandro Garnacho for an excellent third as United completed a third win in four games since

Matz Sels, Nottingham Forest, keeper, £4.5m – home to Crystal Palace

Palace have scored once in their past three games and only Fulham have conceded fewer big chances than Forest.

Sels is the best £4.5m keeper this week – he pulled out of the Belgium squad with an adductor injury but should be OK, and I’ve got his deputy on the bench if not.

Trent Alexander-Arnold, Liverpool, defender, £7.1m –

Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, midfielder, £8.4m – away at Southampton

The underlying statistics are screaming out for us to pick Fernandes this week.

The Manchester United talisman has been unlucky to have no returns so far this season.

His xGI is two, he has had eight shots (Salah has had just nine and scored three times), four in the box and two big chances.

Couple that with Southampton’s defence, which
