The Premier League title race continues to heat up after another dramatic weekend of fixtures. Arsenal clung onto top spot, but Manchester City and Liverpool remain hot on their heels. With so much at stake, individual brilliance shone through, making it a tough call for Team of the Week selections. Here's a look at who impressed the most:
Goalkeeper:
Jose Sa (Wolves): The Portuguese keeper was a wall against Fulham, making crucial saves to secure a vital 2-1 win for Wolves.
Defense:
Right-back: Ben White (Arsenal): White was a rock at the back for Arsenal, putting in a solid performance against Brentford and providing an attacking outlet down the right.
Centre-back: Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool): A colossus as ever, Van Dijk marshaled the Liverpool defense effectively in their high-profile clash with Manchester City.
Left-back: Rayan Ait-Nouri (Wolves): A constant threat down the left flank, Ait-Nouri provided attacking impetus while also being defensively sound for Wolves against Fulham last weekend.
Midfield:
Central Midfield: Wataru Endo (Liverpool): The Japanese maestro controlled the midfield for Liverpool, dictating play with his passing and composure.
Central Midfield: Declan Rice (Arsenal): Another dominant performance from Rice, who not only anchored the Arsenal midfield but also got on the scoresheet in their win.
Central Midfield: Alejandro Garnacho (Manchester United):A livewire for United, Garnacho's pace and trickery earned two penalties, which were converted to secure a much-needed win.
Brennan Johnson (Tottenham Hotspur): Johnson was instrumental in midfield for Spurs as they secured a emphatic 4-0 victory over Aston Villa last Sunday.
Attack:
Left-wing: Cole Palmer (Chelsea): A constant threat on the Chelsea left, Palmer caused problems for the Newcastle defense throughout the game.
Striker: Kai Havertz (Arsenal) Arsenal's German forward continued his impressive goalscoring form, bagging a late goal to help them secure a vital victory over Brentford.
Striker: Son Heung-min (Tottenham): Back to his best, Son scored a wonderful goal and was a constant menace for the Tottenham attack.
