Matchweek 19 presented a return to Premier League action for City, Chelsea leaving it late against Crystal Palace, Arsenal beaten at home by West Ham, and Tottenham capitulating away at Brighton. Let’s rank the top 5 best players from matchweek 19 of the 2023/24 Premier League season.
Bernardo Silva
At the heart of everything good at the Goodison park for Manchester City. He was unplayable alongside Phil Foden.
The Portuguese grabbed a goal and assist in Merseyside as the Citizens fought to get back to winning ways in the Premier League.
Joao Pedro
Pedro converted two spot kicks and created one goal to help his team beat Spurs despite a late fightback.
The former Watford man was impressive throughout the match, winning 10 duels. His performance earned him praise from his manager Roberto De Zerbi.
Hwang Hee-Chan
The most in-form Korean in the Premier League at the moment… sorry, Son. Hee-Chan scored two impressive goals against an unusually open Brentford side before he was forced off late in the first half due to injury.
Chris Wood
A dream return to St James Park for Chris Wood as he scored an impressive hat-trick to beat a sorry Newcastle side. The Magpies were scattered defensively, and the former Burnley man was on hand to fire his side to victory.
Alejandro Garnacho
Two goals inside 11 minutes from the Argentine winger changed the game against an inform Aston Villa side.
Garnacho’s well taken chances shot Manchester United back into the game before Rasmus Højlund’s winner. His goals probably spared Erik ten Hag’s head.
