Thibaut Courtois (Chelsea)
Has pressure to
perform after replacing Cech and was solid in what was an open game against the
newly promoted and attacking Leicester team. He made
some excellent saves including a fantastic one on one with David Nugent.
Eric Dier (Tottenham)
For the second
week in a row, another cracking display from Dier and another goal as well to
help Spurs in their perfect start to the league campaign. His first real test will be stopping Sturridge and Balotelli of Liverpool
next week.
Ron Vlaar (Aston Villa)
His league form
has continued after his impressive world cup, his confidence from the summer is
increasing every game, two clean sheets in two league games. Cannot ask for more from your centre
back, plus there’s a solid partnership with him and Senderos developing.
Seamus Coleman (Everton)
In a game Everton
dominated and should have won comfortably, Coleman was a prominent and
continuous attacking force. He grabbed a goal and was consistently on form
throughout.
Branislav
Ivanovic (Chelsea)
A key figure in a defence that has only
shipped one goal in their opening two games, Ivanovic has been Chelsea’s rock,
another solid week in which he provided the assist for Diego Costa’s goal. The
fixture against Leicester wasn’t as easy as some had predicted his dedication
and determination helped ensure Chelsea get all 3 points.
Stewart
Downing (West Ham)
Reinvigorated since his transfer from
Liverpool the winger was in devastating form against Crystal Palace this weekend.
Some players aren’t cut out to play at big clubs where the expectation week
after week is huge, Downing seems to excel without that expectation and should
kick on and improve even more.
Aaron
Ramsey (Arsenal)
Ramsey’s goal was instrumental and helped
Arsenal come back from 2 down to what had been a very composed Everton side
until he struck 7 minutes from time. Fairly anonymous for most of the match and
yet he stepped up during a key moment, the sign of a great player.
Nacer
Chadli (Tottenham)
After sitting out the opener against
West Ham he scored twice to condemn QPR to 2 defeats in 2 games. He’s slowly
beginning to prove his worth and make his mark on this spurs side.
Cesc
Fabregas (Chelsea)
The transfer of the summer on
performances so far. Fabregas has taken on the responsibility of filling the
departed Lampard’s boots with ease, devastating going forward and another
assist. It’s only a matter of time before the goals start flowing from his
boots.
Stevan Jovetic (Manchester City)
After a
good pre-season he is putting in performances that count in the league now, a
thorn in Liverpool's side most of the game, got himself an assist and a goal.
He’s really putting up a fight for his place in the starting line-up.
Mauro Zarate (West Ham)
Playing just
behind the top man he was immense in driving the hammers forward and inspiring
his team mates around him.
