- Ranking The Best Premier League Players Of Matchweek 4
A weekend that ended dramatically at the Emirates, Premier League match week 4 definitely delivered and entertained fans around the world.
From Chelsea’s loss at home to Nottingham Forest, to City’s convincing win over Fulham and Arsenal’s late show at home against Manchester United, it was thrilling weekend of football. Let’s rate the top 5 best players from the just concluded round of Premier League games.
5 – Odsonne Edouard
Edouard was immense for Crystal Palace against Wolves. The Frenchman scored a brace, but was also influential in everything Crystal Palace did in attack. He was a proper menace in the box for his side, and his 7 shots against a typically stubborn Wolves side reflects how key he was to Crystal Palace’s victory on Sunday.
4 – Erling Haaland
It’s no longer news that Erling Haaland is the best striker in Europe, but yet another hat-trick for Manchester City after he was named the PFA player of the year and also the best player in Europe last week. Haaland converted a penalty in between two clinical finishes against Fulham to keep his team at the top of the table.
3 – Declan Rice
What a performance from the former West Ham skipper. Declan Rice showed the reason why Arsenal paid all that money for him. He kept Arsenal compact in the middle all through the game against Manchester United. Even as Arsenal dominated much of the game, Rice still made 6 recoveries, 2 interceptions and one clearance. He also scored Arsenal’s winner to keep the Gunners closer to title rivals Manchester City going into the International break.
2 – Heung Min Son
Spurs captain was on hand to lead his side to an impressive victory over newly promoted Burnley. Son scored his first Premier League goals this season in style. Typical penalty box finishes in a game Tottenham overly dominated attacking-wise.
1 – Evan Ferguson
An 18-year-old scoring a hat-trick against a top 4 Premier League side? That doesn’t happen every year. Evan Ferguson is living up to the expectations at Brighton despite his age. A big, strong striker with a cunning eye for goal at the end of all Brighton’s play against Newcastle. His second goal against the Magpies shows the type of striker he can truly become – a beast in and outside the box.
Evan Ferguson is the best player of Premier League Matchweek 4.
