Kortney Hause (AVL)

In his first Premier League start of the season, the Aston Villa defender scored the decisive goal while helping his side to a clean sheet at Old Trafford.

Abdoulaye Doucoure (EVE)

Taking over half of the vote, the Everton midfielder put in an all-action display and scored his side's second goal at Goodison Park.

LEE

1-2

WHU

West Ham United's striker was a constant threat on his return from suspension, creating chances in addition to his own goal attempts. He finally got his rewards with a well-taken late winner, hitting his fifth goal in five matches.

LEI

2-2

BUR

Jamie Vardy (LEI)

The striker was in the the thick of the action at King Power Stadium, scoring an own goal before clinically netting twice at the right end. He took over 70 per cent of the vote.

Ismaila Sarr (WAT)

Sarr's fourth goal of the season earned Watford a point at home and gave him almost half of the vote.

BRE

3-3

LIV

Diogo Jota (LIV)

SOU

0-1

WOL

Raul Jimenez (WOL)

He scored his first Premier League goal since fracturing his skull in November 2020, and he did it in style. Jimenez showed his strength to win a tussle and latch on to a long ball before displaying his skill to bamboozle Southampton's covering defenders and finish coolly.

ARS

3-1

TOT

Bukayo Saka (ARS)

The 20-year-old sparkled on the right flank, laying on the opener for Emile Smith Rowe and then netting himself. He became the youngest ever Premier League player to both score and assist in the north London derby.
