Goalkeeper
Emiliano Martínez (Aston Villa)- Martínez was at his best. His performance was inspirational. He made a pivotal save in the 1st minute of the match. He kept a clean sheet and made six saves, which helped Aston Villa win a game they played with ten men. They had to do so for just over a half against Crystal Palace, yet won 3-nil!

Semi Ajayi (Centre Back- West Brom)- Ajayi helped West Brom draw with Liverpool with a clinical finish late in the match.
Kortney Hause (Centre Back- Aston Villa)- Hause scored a pivotal goal for Aston Villa, which made the score 2-nil in the 66th minute.
Kieran Tierney (Left Back- Arsenal)- Tierney had a great game for Arsenal in an upset win over Chelsea!
Midfielders
Granit Xhaka (Defensive Midfield- Arsenal)- Xhaka scored the all important 2nd goal for Arsenal just before half time.
Tomas Soucek (Centre Midfield- West Ham)– Soucek scored an equaliser for West Ham in the 82nd minute. It was a goal that should good for their morale.
Gylfi Sigurdsson (Attacking Midfield- Everton)- Sigurdsson scored the only goal of the game, which gave Everton a win over Sheffield United.
Bruno Fernandes (Attacking Midfield- Manchester United)- Fernandes finished the match against Leicester City with a goal and an assist!
Strikers
Jamie Vardy (Striker- Leicester City)- Vardy may not have scored, but he helped Leicester City draw with Manchester United.
Patrick Bamford (Striker- Leeds United)– Bamford of Leeds United scored the only goal of the match.
Matchweek 15 Team of the Week (Final Thoughts)
In Matchweek 15, I tried to select the Premier League Team of the as accurately as possible. There were six teams out of 20 teams that kept a clean sheet. There were 14 teams who scored 23 goals. There was some good football played and a few unlucky players not to be chosen in the Matchweek Team of the Week. The likes of Romain Saïss as well as Pedro Neto Bukayo Saka were unlucky to miss out. I had to fit the Team into the 4-4-2 formation, which was challenging!
