Sander Berge (Fulham): It was a massive game against Hull, a six-pointer and if Fulham lose that they are going down in my opinion. But they got the job done and he was at the heart of everything good for them.
Diego Gomez (Brighton): He scored from the halfway line, nothing more needs to be said.
Pedro Neto (Chelsea): Two goals, wins the
Ferdi Kadioglu (Brighton): He makes a massive block in the second half, which would have made it 1-1, and if the floodgates open it would be a problem. He is not known for his defensive skills, but he was great.
Jefferson Lerma (Crystal Palace): A centre-midfielder playing at centre-back. He scored a goal, made some big tackles, and was also was able to play out from

Harvey Barnes (Newcastle): Gets a goal. Good finish into that far corner as well. He’s been excellent and not spoken about a lot. Anthony Elanga and all the others get the headlines, but Barnes has been fantastic.
Martin Odegaard (Arsenal): Captain, leader and a massive winner. It’s just one of those moments where you just think, how did they talk about getting rid of Odegaard? It’s

Everyone is waiting to see if Alvarez changes his stance and opens up to the idea, but if he doesn’t, Arsenal are happy with their squad and won’t

Brentford are in the fortunate position of being able to choose their deals carefully after some excellent squad strengthening.
The Bees have been looking at left-back, with West Ham’s El Hadji Malick Diouf strongly linked, but it hardly seems a matter of urgency with Keane Lewis-Potter able to play as a wing-back with Rico Henry and Aaron Hickey also in the mix.

Marc Guehi (Man City): I’ll have Guehi in as my holding midfielder. He should have scored two against Bournemouth because he missed a massive chance before he ended up scoring. But he got the equaliser and offered a lot more of a calming presence than City’s £116m record signing Elliot Anderson – Guehi controlled the game a little bit more.
Vitaly Janelt (Brentford): He is one of
Sheffield United ended a worrying week with a gritty performance as Callum O’Hare came closest to finding a winner in a goalless draw at Swansea City.
The Blades are still waiting for a first Championship victory – and league goal – of the new campaign, but there were encouraging signs as Swansea were stifled in their opening home league fixture of the season.
In a game of few clear-cut chances,
At the Kirkby training base, the players spent the first couple of days undergoing the usual individual tests before getting on the pitch with the ball on Thursday and Friday.
Iraola is heavily involved in these sessions and often says “bravo” when he sees something he likes. The intensity is evident to see, particularly in the training videos uploaded by Liverpool‘s official channels.
