Raul Jimenez (Wolves) / Jetro Willems (Newcastle) / Anwar El Ghazi (Aston Villa) - 10 points
Aaron Connolly (Brighton) / Conor Hourihane (Aston Villa) - 11 points
James Milner (Liverpool) / Sadio Mane (Liverpool) - 12 points
James Milner kept his cool from the penalty spot in stoppage time to maintain Liverpool's 100 per cent start to the Premier League campaign in Saturday's 2-1 over Leicester. Milner wasn't just decisive in the closing seconds, but the veteran also supplied the assist for the opening goal of the match.
It was Milner's long through ball that set Sadio Mane away to give Liverpool the lead just before half-time. Mane finished as the WhoScored Man of the Match with his second goal in as many matches in all competitions.
Wesley (Aston Villa) / David Luiz (Arsenal) - 13 points
Wesley scored twice in Aston Villa's stunning 5-1 victory away to Norwich last weekend, though was denied a first-half hat-trick after missing from the penalty spot. The 22-year-old also supplied the assist for Douglas Luiz's long-range stunner towards the end. Wesley actually had as many shots on target as Norwich managed as a team (five).
Arsenal's encounter with Bournemouth promised to be highly entertaining between two sides that seem to priotise attack over defence, particularly after David Luiz netted as early in the ninth minute. However, his header proved the only goal of the game. The 32-year-old also managed four tackles and interceptions combined to help Arsenal keep a clean sheet.
Adama Traore (Wolves) - 15 points
Wolves continued their impressive form against the top-six sides last weekend and threw a real spanner in the title race after defeating defending champions Manchester City 2-0 away from home. Adama Traore netted both goals for Wolves, coming in the space of the final 14 minutes of the match. The 23-year-old powerhouse also completed three dribbles and won two aerial duels.
