Who has made Troy's Premier League team of the week?

Published5 hours ago

After every round of Premier League matches this season, BBC football pundit Troy Deeney will give you his team and manager of the week.

Here are this week's choices. Do you agree? Give us your thoughts using the comments form at the bottom of this page.

Bernd Leno (Fulham): Unbelievable couple of saves from him to keep Fulham in the game. I thought Newcastle should have been three or four up before Fulham got the equaliser.

Ronald Araujo (Liverpool): He is just the difference maker to that Liverpool backline. The injury-time Crystal Palace penalty that denied them a clean sheet was a terrible decision, but when he is in the team, they play better and look more solid.

Jair Cunha (Nottingham Forest): Exceptional. His goal helps, but exceptional at sniffing out the danger. Erling Haaland didn't have a sniff of a goal in Man City's defeat by Forest. Cunha will need to be really good going forward if they're the team Oliver Glasner wants.

Tarik Muharemovic (Leeds United): Many times he got caught one v one against Spurs but showed his ability to be chilled and calm under pressure and make his tackle. Very unassuming.

Nordi Mukiele (Sunderland): He was excellent again. He forced Chelsea to go wide and I think that was the key to them winning the game.

Leon Goretzka (Aston Villa): Although it was 4-4 in the end at Man Utd, Goretzka was a beast. He was calm under pressure and moved the ball really well as well. He obviously got a goal but his passing, movement and the ability to just be calm and handle every situation presented to him was really, really good.

Alexis Mac Allister (Liverpool): How this guy has not got a new deal I don't know. He keeps coming up big, high energy and he is vitally important to the way Liverpool play. When he is fit and available and firing on all cylinders it feels like they have a chance in this title race.

Enzo Le Fee (Sunderland): Where would Sunderland be without this guy? He has been good, he has been scoring, chipping in with big moments. Also his ability to take the ball when under pressure, take his side up the pitch and also have that little bit of innovative play and free thinking. He is exceptional.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall (Everton): Bossed the game for Everton against Coventry. Unbelievable goal but he absolutely bossed it. There was nothing more he could have done. Never gave the ball away, defensively he was solid. Attacking wise - goals and assists.

Thierno Barry (Everton): The two up front pick themselves, but probably the last time I would have them together in the same team. Did really well, two good goals against Coventry and probably should have had a third as well.

Liam Delap (Nottingham Forest): What a game for him and moment he needed. A lot of pressure from the outside, including myself. Hasn't shown up big this season but against his former team Man City, his former Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca as well, and he turned around and said, 'you know what, I am the man and you should have kept me around'. Scored two unbelievable goals, led the line well and looked physically fitter and stronger. Maybe now that confidence comes through and we see the best of him after the international break.

Mikel Arteta (Arsenal): I am going for Mikel Arteta simply because he has just won the Premier League. Well done. I said at the start of the season that, for me, Arsenal will win the league by 10 points and this weekend they did it. It's November and the season is officially over.
