With the penultimate weekend of this season’s Premier League action now behind us, we’ve taken a look at gameweek 37’s standout performers. Represented in our Team of the Week are Sheffield United, Manchester City, Arsenal, Everton, Newcastle, Crystal Palace and Aston Villa.
Wes Foderingham (Sheffield United) – 8.14
Despite defeat to Everton at Goodison Park on Saturday, Sheffield United goalkeeper Wes Foderingham earns a place in our Team of the Week, having made a total of six saves and four high claims against the Toffees, contributing to a WhoScored rating of 8.14.
Ruben Dias (Manchester City) – 7.82
Manchester City’s charge for a fourth successive Premier League title rolled on once more as they cruised to a 4-0 victory at Fulham on Saturday. Solid at the back for the visitors was Ruben Dias, who won six aerial duels, made three interceptions and three clearances on his way to a WhoScored rating of 7.82.
William Saliba (Arsenal) – 7.82
Arsenal defender William Saliba turned in yet another Player of the Match performance away to a Big Six side, as the Gunners narrowly overcame Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday. Saliba, who has played every minute in the Premier League this season, made four tackles, six clearances, three aerial wins and one last-man tackle to take home a WhoScored rating of 7.82.
Jhon Duran (Aston Villa) – 8.36
Aston Villa’s back-up striker Jhon Duran made it five Premier League goals in just 373 minutes of action this season when he came off the bench, Hungry Like The Wolf, to bag a crucial brace late on against Liverpool on Monday night. The Colombian attacker was substituted on with his side 3-1 down and seemingly resigned to defeat, but found the net in the 85th and 88th minute as Liverpool, to earn what could be a pivotal point in the race for Champions League football.
