Shot-stopper

Alphonse Areola (West Ham): West Ham might have been trailing by six at Bournemouth without him. Massive moment, delivered and demonstrated real class. Excellent keeping to help achieve a 2-2 draw. A loss could have dismantled their campaign.

Defensive unit

Daniel Munoz (Crystal Palace): He's in the running for player of the season. Fans mention Gunners' stars. He's been the standout player by a country mile.

Murillo (Nottingham Forest): You'd have been a wild optimist to say 'Murillo will score and we'll beat Liverpool 3-0 at Anfield'. You'd have got huge prices on that. He performed brilliantly. He is turning into a powerhouse. He can really be a challenge. I'm happy to see him playing like last season.

Malick Thiaw (Newcastle): I observed him multiple matches last year in Italy for AC Milan and he struggled because he was making mistakes. But at Newcastle he's impressed greatly. He displays really strong and powerful and appears graceful. It seems he's found a perfect fit.

Ferdi Kadioglu (Brighton): Not naturally a defender, leaning towards a modern type in attack. He's been a excellent acquisition for Brighton. Who would be surprised at them finding another gem unexpectedly? Many felt after selling Pervis Estupinan that was strange but the Seagulls understand what they're doing.

Engine room

Sander Berge (Fulham) and Elliot Anderson (Nottingham Forest): Similar players and they make it for the identical cause. Their teams won, everyone will talk the scorers, but without these two the sides struggle. They are so good. They break up play, they support going forward.

Eberechi Eze (Arsenal): The man of the moment. Numerous supporters, such as family members, had doubts if he could be the man to secure victory. Three strikes in the local rivalry and now they want to erect a monument of him. Goals, composure, he ran the show. The best player on the pitch.

Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa): Possibly the only point of agreement with Thomas Tuchel on - he has reached a point now where it's going to be quite challenging to leave him out. My view was he began well the term, I believe he seemed somewhat presumptuous and thought he maybe have got a move to Chelsea, and perhaps aimed for that, but he has adapted well. Two superb finishes obviously against Leeds dragged his team from a deficit. He made the impact.

Attackers

Callum Wilson (West Ham): I noted he seemed lacking his typical form. He appeared as if he was slower. But wow. That's all I can say. He was excellent. Phenomenal in his approach and in his dual goals.

Harvey Barnes (Newcastle): A particularly intriguing player. He excels, often more effective off the bench, but Anthony Gordon has an injury so he is required to feature. He missed a key opening against Manchester City at 0-0 with his simplest attempt. But to have the psychological strength to place himself into challenging moments and get a brace was impressive.

Boss

Sean Dyche (Nottingham Forest): He arrives and outperforms Arne Slot. A wonderful gameplan. Possibly it was multiple goals for Forest and few would dispute.
