After three matches there is now a two-week break in the Premier League for the international games, so this is the last Team of the Week from fanatix for a fortnight.

Rob Green QPR

GK – Robert Green, QPR

Made a succession of brilliant saves to edge his side to their first league win of the season and Green essentially won the match for his team with his performance.

Ritchie de Laet Leicester

RB – Ritchie de Laet, Leicester City

The Foxes got a hard earned point at the King Power Stadium against Arsenal largely thanks to a solid defensive display and de Laet also got forward well to support the attack.

Jason Shackell Burnley

CB – Jason Shackell, Burnley

The focus from the lunchtime kickoff on Saturday will be about Manchester United being woeful, but it was a captain’s display of the highest order from Shackell to ensure a Clarets clean-sheet.

Ryan Shawcross Stoke

CB – Ryan Shawcross, Stoke City

It was a similar story for the Potters’ skipper as well, with Shawcross keeping Sergio Aguero and Stevan Jovetic quiet as Stoke secured a shock victory over Manchester City.

Daniel Sturridge Alberto Moreno Liverpool

LB – Alberto Moreno, Liverpool

Signed from Sevilla for £12m the left-back finally showed just what he was capable of in a 3-0 win against Tottenham Hotspur, capping off the game with a fine goal.

Morgan Schneiderlin Southampton

CM – Morgan Schneiderlin, Southampton

All the speculation about his future clearly hasn’t affected the midfielder as he netted twice against West Ham United to secure a 3-1 victory for his team at Upton Park.

Nemanja Matic Chelsea

CM – Nemanja Matic, Chelsea

It was a nine goal thriller at Goodison Park as Everton were defeated 6-3 and Matic – although usually considered a defensive midfielder – scored one and provided an assist for another.

Raheem Sterling Liverpool

RW – Raheem Sterling, Liverpool

The 19-year-old has simply continued where he left off in 2013/14 and against Spurs the forward caused all sorts of problems and opened the scoring with his second of the season.

Gylfi Sigurdsson Swansea

CAM – Gylfi Sigurdsson, Swansea City

Since returning to the Liberty Stadium the Iceland international has been crucial to the Swans’ success and played a key part once again as the Welsh team brushed West Bromwich Albion aside.

Nathan Dyer Swansea

LW – Nathan Dyer, Swansea City

Another of Garry Monk’s men now and a winger that has surely caught the eye of England manager Roy Hodgson after scoring twice against the Baggies in a 3-0 win.

Diego Costa Chelsea

ST – Diego Costa, Chelsea

Any doubts about whether or not this Spaniard would take to English football following a £32m transfer from Atletico Madrid have been forgotten as the brace on Merseyside took Costa’s tally to four league goals in three games.
