The FotMob TOTW for the Premier League: MD8's Best XI stars Jackson, Gabriel, and Rayan

about 3 hours ago

Nottingham Forest, Coventry City and Crystal Palace currently occupy the relegation places, although only five points separates 10th place down to 20th. Goalkeeper: Zion Suzuki For the second successive week, Zion Suzuki earns his place in the Team of the Week (TOTW) for yet another impressive display.

He made six saves against Man City and while a clean sheet eluded him, his display arguably won Villa the tie. Suzuki was also confident on the ball, taking 55 touches throughout the tie.

Centre-Back: James Hill Another player who makes it back-to-back appearances in the TOTW is James Hill. The Bournemouth defender was a rock at the back against Manchester United, registering 22 defensive contributions overall - the most of anyone on the pitch.

Of those, Hill made seven tackles and interceptions, while also clearing two balls off the line in the 3-0 win at Old Trafford. Elsewhere, Hill won 80% of his ground duels and committed just a single foul.

He is more than deserving of his 8.8 rating this week. Centre-Back: Gabriel Surprisingly, this is the first time Gabriel has made the FotMob TOTW this season, but his display against Everton ensures his spot this week.

The Brazilian scored Arsenal's second in the 2-0 victory while he also made six passes into the final third and recorded two shots. Defensively, Gabriel made eight clearances and three tackles along with winning four of his five ground duels.

To put it simply, Everton couldn't find a past the 28-year-old. 🤝 In usual Arsenal fashion, their defence EXCELLED today as they beat Everton 2-0… with both centre backs scoring!

They move level on points with Manchester City… 📊pic. António Silva joins Hill as a standout at the back, especially in the air, winning 75% of his aerial duels against Michael Carrick's men.

With seven clearances and six recoveries, Silva demonstrated his defensive abilities wonderfully in what was arguably his finest display for the Cherries. Midfield: Ben White Ben White operated at Right-Back against Everton, but he makes up part of the midfield in the TOTW 4-3-3 formation.
