NEWFANZONE BPL TEAM OF THE WEEK WEEK 4

After the end of another exciting week in the EPL Newfanzone.com take a look at the players that performed brilliantly and therefore make our NEWFANZONE BPL TEAM oF THE WEEK

FORMATION- 4-2-3-1

GOALKEEPER: BEN HAMER– The Leicester city. Second choice goalie made his EPL debut when first choice Kasper Schmeichel was forced to miss the game due to injury he sustained during the international break with Denmark. Hamer made sure Leicester took all three points from the Hawthorns with spectacular saves and even a double save from Diouf and Moses close to the end of the game.

RIGHT BACK: RAFAEL DA SILVA– Rafael played his socks off at the right back position for Manchester United. Even though you’ll say its against QPR the Brazillian showed why he would want to make that right back his own.

LEFT BACK: GAEL CLICHY– He was so unlucky not to get a goal against his former club. He was both assured at the back as well as in front.

CENTRE BACK: VINCENT KOMPANY- The Manchester city captain through his whole body in the line to scupper all the attack Arsenal brought to him. He was not afraid to go into tackles and made sure Arsenal new boy Danny Welbeck was silent for most part of the game.

CENTRE BACK: In the Absence of Ron Vlaar, Swiss international Philipe Sanderos coordinated his back line as Aston Villa left Anfield without conceding a goal. He was not fazed by Balotelli antics but kept his calm as they move two points off the Summit of the EPL.

DEFENSIVE MIDFIELD: MOGRAN SCHNEIDERLIN– The Saints Captain showed he has put what happened in the transfer window behind him by putting in a spectacular performance against Newcastle in their biggest win of the season. He even capped his fine performance with a 90th minute goal.

HOLDING MIDFIELD: ANDER HERRERA– The former Bilbao man is a man to watch for the New look United side this season. Ability to pick out players by providing assists and also scoring his fair share of goals. His performance against Harry Redknapp side sure makes him a sure bet for our team of the week.

ATTACKING MIDFIELD: JACK WILSHERE– The young English man was obviously Arsenal best player on the pitch of play against Manchester City. He got the needed equaliser and also an assist to make sure Arsenal salvaged a point at the Emirates. His overall play was also excellent which moved his coach Arsene Wenger to heap praises on Jack.

LEFT WINGER: ANGEL DI MARIA– The Angel has finally arrived in England. He scored a sublime free kick and also got an assist bagging a MOTM award against QPR as he looked to be an exciting signing for Louis Van Gaal.

RIGHT WINGER: ALEXIS SANCHEZ– Alexis work rate against the defending champions was excellent and his goal fantastic. The Chilean alongside Wilshere were Arsenal Brightest spark in the game and they together brought Arsenal back into the game.

FORWARD: DIEGO COSTA- Seven goals in the last four games, an Hat-trick in the last match-day Diego Costa positional sense and finishing is what Chelsea needs if they want to win the EPL this season. If Costa keep scoring then Chelsea will keep winning.

PLAYER OF THE WEEK– JACK WILSHERE

CLUB OF THE WEEK– ASTON VILLA

MANAGER OF THE WEEK– PAUL LAMBERT

MUPPET OF THE WEEK– BRENDAN RODGERS
