Dean Henderson was the Eagles hero on Sunday, saving a first-half Tolu Arokodare penalty. That was one of seven Henderson saves at Selhurst Park, as the Palace star prevented 2.56 goals in a fine showing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Honourable mention<\/strong>: Bart Verbruggen (79%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brighton and Hove Albion claimed an impressive 2-0 win at high-flying Brentford on Saturday afternoon. Seagulls star Bart Verbruggen was solid between the sticks in the home triumph, making four saves in a clean sheet-attaining display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-rb-diogo-dalot-man-utd\">RB: Diogo Dalot (Man Utd)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Squawka score<\/strong>: 74%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Diogo Dalot was excellent as part of Manchester United&#8217;s defence in their 1-0 win over Everton. In contributing to the Red Devils&#8217; clean sheet, Dalot made three interceptions retaining possession, four clearances and won possession four times in the defensive third. At the other end of the pitch, Dalot had one shot on target, four touches in the opposition box and two successful passes into the penalty area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Honourable mention<\/strong>: Matty Cash (73%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Aston Villa were unable to maximise home advantage in an eventual 1-1 draw with Leeds United, Matty Cash still did all he could to help his side. He made three clearances, three interceptions and created two chances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-cb-ibrahima-konate-liverpool\">CB: Ibrahima Konate (Liverpool)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Squawka score<\/strong>: 76%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Having stood firm in Liverpool\u2019s 1-0 win at Nottingham Forest on Sunday, Ibrahima Konate features in the Team of the Week. The Frenchman was vital as the Reds rode out the storm to claim all the spoils at the City Ground, managing six clearances, three interceptions and two tackles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Honourable mention<\/strong>: Ezri Konsa (73%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ezri Konsa did all he could to secure a result for Villa against Leeds. The England international managed a 93.67% retention rate and made three interceptions to narrowly miss out on a spot in the XI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-cb-william-saliba-arsenal\">CB: William Saliba (Arsenal)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Squawka score<\/strong>: 74%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s an all-French centre-back partnership in the Team of the Week. William Saliba was again superb at the back for Arsenal as they earned a 4-1 win at rivals Tottenham. The Frenchman returned a 100% ground duel success rate and three interceptions in a routine afternoon for the 24-year-old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Honourable mention<\/strong>: Trevoh Chalobah (73%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like Konsa, Trevoh Chalobah just misses out on a spot in the best XI. Chelsea may have conceded late on against Burnley, yet Chalobah again caught the eye for the Blues as he managed five clearances and a 92.31% retention rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lb-el-hadji-malick-diouf-west-ham\">LB: El Hadji Malick Diouf (West Ham)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Squawka score<\/strong>: 72%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Rounding off the defence is West Ham star El Hadji Malick Diouf. The Senegalese full-back impressed off the ball as he won nine aerial duels and managed five clearances to help the Hammers to a point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Honourable mention<\/strong>: Tyrick Mitchell (71%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tyrick Mitchell provided his first Premier League assist of the season in Crystal Palace\u2019s 1-0 win over Wolves on Sunday. The 26-year-old picked out Evann Guessand with the one and only chance he created, and made one tackle in the narrow victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-rw-harry-wilson-fulham\">RW: Harry Wilson (Fulham)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Squawka score<\/strong>: 75%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Harry Wilson continued his flying Fulham form with a fifth league assist of the season in Sunday\u2019s 3-1 win at Sunderland. That assist came from one chance created at the Stadium of Light, while the 28-year-old was on hand to help out defensively having managed seven clearances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Honourable mention<\/strong>: Bukayo Saka (70%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fresh from penning a new deal, Bukayo Saka impressed in Sunday\u2019s north London derby. Arsenal\u2019s Star Boy managed three tackles, created two chances and completed two take-ons in a notable display down the right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-dm-rodri-manchester-city\">DM: Rodri (Manchester City)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Squawka score<\/strong>: 76%<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Manchester City boosted their title chances with a 2-1 win over Newcastle United on Saturday. But they did need to ride out a late Magpies storm to secure a huge three points. Rodri was one of their star performers in the vital victory as he managed five tackles and completed two take-ons to make the cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Honourable mention<\/strong>: Tomas Soucek (73%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second West Ham player to just miss out on a spot in the side, Tomas Soucek played a vital role in shielding the Hammers backline. The Czech star won five duels and three aerial duels in a commendable display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-dm-casemiro-man-utd\">DM: Casemiro (Man Utd)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Squawka score<\/strong>: 79%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Casemiro was a wall in the Man Utd midfield, helping protect the defence in their win over Everton. The Brazilian won three tackles and three aerial duels, alongside four possessions won in the middle third. He also made eight ball recoveries and won 10 duels overall. He was pretty tough to beat. But Casemioro also completed 15 forward passes and nine passes into the final third.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Honourable mention<\/strong>: Alex Iwobi (73%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alex Iwobi played in a deeper role for Fulham in their 3-1 win over Sunderland. But he was still directly involved in two of their three goals and compelted 93.94% of his open-play passes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lw-callum-hudson-odoi-nottingham-forest\">LW: Callum Hudson-Odoi (Nottingham Forest)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Squawka score<\/strong>: 73%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Callum Hudson-Odoi did all he could to help Nottingham Forest in Vitor Pereira\u2019s first home game. The Tricky Trees star created two chances, fired off one shot and completed one take-on. But it wasn\u2019t enough as Forest fell to a 1-0 loss to Liverpool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Honourable mention<\/strong>: Pedro Neto (70%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pedro Neto followed up his hat-trick at Hull City last week with the assist for Joao Pedro against Burnley. Said assist came from one of three chances created. In addition, Neto was on hand to complete four take-ons though the Blues stuttered against the Clarets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-st-viktor-gyokeres-arsenal\">ST: Viktor Gyokeres (Arsenal)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Squawka score<\/strong>: 86%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Unsurprisingly, Viktor Gyokeres makes the cut on the frontline in the team of the week following his two-goal salvo in Arsenal\u2019s 4-1 win over Tottenham. Gyokeres got the better of Guglielmo Vicario with both shots on target on Sunday, and managed one completed take-on and created one chance in a superb attacking display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Honourable mention<\/strong>: Joao Pedro (68%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Joao Pedro was one of the handful of Chelsea players to come away from their 1-1 draw with Burnley with any credit. The former Brighton man bagged his 11th league goal of the season early on in the Stamford Bridge stalemate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-st-raul-jimenez-fulham\">ST: Raul Jimenez (Fulham)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Squawka score<\/strong>: 78%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Partnering Gyokeres in attack is Fulham frontman Raul Jimenez, who bagged his seventh and eighth league goals of the season at Sunderland over the weekend. The Mexican beat Robin Roefs with both of his efforts on target and won three aerial duels. He also completed two lay off passes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Honourable mention<\/strong>: Danny Welbeck (67%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dat Guy is another honourable mention here having bagged his ninth league goal of the season as Brighton claimed a solid 2-0 win at Brentford. Danny Welbeck\u2019s strike in west London came from his only shot to help the Seagulls pull away from danger.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a
