Despite conceding four goals, Martin Dubravka looked to have secured a place in the 90min team of the week thanks to his rather incredible ten saves at Anfield on Monday night. And then Alphonse Areola came out on Tuesday and made eight stunning stops to keep a rampant Brighton & Hove Albion team at bay at the London Stadium. Areola may be the best goalkeeper in the Premier League right now.
The 2022 World Cup winner has finally garnered some gametime at Nottingham Forest in recent weeks, and he's certainly made the most of it. Montiel followed up a solid outing in a win over Newcastle United with an exceptional one in the victory against Manchester United at the City Ground. His clever cut-back cross provided the assist for an all-important winning goal. Nice one.
Craig Dawson has made a rather surprising number of our team of the weeks throughout 2023/24. This time, the veteran centre-back has made the cut thanks to a goal, 100% tackle completions, seven clearances and seven duels won in a fantastic performances against Everton at the weekend.
Like his centre-back partner, Wolves defender Max Kilman was also bloody brilliant against Everton. Kilman got among the goals to in the 3-0 victory, and won the ball back off the Toffees on ten occasions throughout the game at Molineux.
Destiny Udogie put in yet another strong performance for Manchester City as they thrashed Burnley 4-0. The left-back provided an assist and was solid defensively. It's hard to argue that Udogie is not the best left-back in the Premier League right now.
