Cole Palmer (Chelsea): He scored a goal and although he didn’t get the assist for the team’s first it was an unreal pass for, as they say in America, an assist for the assist. It was a great ball and set them on their way. It just showed a level of class and when they take him off it looks like Chelsea at every single opportunity are going to lose the game. It gets so wide open, no control and he is probably getting frustrated at being brought off, but it was one of those games where he was excellent again.
Chris Wood (Nottingham Forest): He has been scoring goals all season and coming up big when he needs to. Two massive goals on a huge night against rivals Leicester. Big Chris still delivers. Look at the age bracket. Apparently now you only have to be 23 and all you can do is sprint and run, but this guy is showing it is good to have a little bit of experience and it is back-to-back times he has been the striker in our team.
Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford): Every single time I watch Brentford I expect him to score now. It is a wonderful thing to have. A cool, calm penalty and also that cross that ended up going in, the decisiveness in the play and the decision to get on the ball and take on a couple of Ipswich players before delivering into the box. Yes, a little bit lucky it went in at the far post but he made it all by himself and I think that is his first time in our team of the week.
Arsenal have plenty of heart, as they demonstrated here as they ended battling to keep Liverpool at bay with a back four of Thomas Partey, Ben White, Jakub Kiwi
