Here we go with premier league week seven. Top week last week with excellent returns on premierpunt.com.
Chelsea goalkeeper along with two of their defenders providing clean sheets against Arsenal, all overlooked by the Diego Costa and his nonsense. West ham’s Dimtri Payet continued his excellent form with an assist in another brilliant away performance at Manchester City. Up front Anthony Martial, or Tony Marshall as Manchester United supporters have christened him, and Callum Wilson of Bournemouth scored.
Defence
Anyway, last week is old history and it’s all about the here and now. I’m tipping Manchester United to keep a clean sheet at home to the miserable Sunderland.
With this in mind I’m picking David De Gea in goal and the excellent Chris Smalling in a back three. Unfortunately as I’m picking a United forward, guess who, I can’t pick any more defenders. The two others in defence are Jonny Evans of West Brom and Cesar Azpillacueta of Chelsea. Tony Pulis has got West Brom in top shape defensively and I expect another shut-out against Everton while Chelsea are away to a very poor Newcastle.
Midfield
My four in midfield in this 3-4-3 system are Payet and Moses of West Ham and Barkley of Everton alongside Mane of Southampton. The Hammers are at home to Norwich and both new signings have been in great form. Mane had an excellent thirty minutes against United last week, as did the whole Southampton team, and I think he will stand out against Swansea. Barkley is beginning to show the consistency he has lacked since emerging in Everton’s first team squad. Everton are away to West Brom.
Forwards
Up front its Anthony Martial to continue his great start against Sunderland and I’ll also be making him my captain. I can honestly see him getting a hat-trick against this woeful Sunderland team. Sakho of West Ham And Pelle of Southampton complete the team. Pelle will be my vice captain.
