As the Premier League entered week six, it was interesting to see a couple of players showcase their talent for their respective clubs.
Goals were going in here and there as Arsenal lost 0-1 at home, while Chelsea claimed the vital point at Manchester United’s ground on Saturday.
It was a match of quality as expectations were met on the pitch despite the barren draw between both sides.
Other games lived up to its billing as well, even as Liverpool came from a goal down to wrestle a 2-1 win at home.
With the characteristics display on the pitch at the weekend, DAILY POST identifies three (3) players of the week in the English topflight known as the Barclays Premier League.
Patrick Bamford (Leeds United)
The English forward demonstrated his class amid his experience in the final third with three second-half goals.
He mesmerized the Aston Villa defence with his left foot dynamics before applying the finishing touch in the left far corner.
Such performance could capture the interest of England boss Gareth Southgate. The Gaffer could be looking for striking options following the injury that hasbedevilled Tottenham Hotspur’s Harry Kane and Chelsea Tammy Abraham in recent times.
He was exquisite and full of conviction as he scored in the 55th, 67th and 74th minute of the match respectively, to down Aston Villa 0-3 at the Villa Park Stadium.
Edouard Mendy (Chelsea)
The Senegalese International was magnificent in goal as he passed the test he was served from the Manchester United team.He showed his goalkeeping clash thus reminding the Chelsea side what they use to have in the safe hands of Petr Cech in goal.
He tipped Marcus Rashford 90th minute strike from going in after saving Marcus Rashford’s effort just outside the box in the first half.
