Butland produced six saves to preserve Stoke’s clean sheet against Arsenal, playing a key part in the Potters’ 1-0 victory on Saturday.
ANTONIO VALENCIA | MAN UTD
Valencia recovered possession 12 times for the Red Devils against Swansea City, more often than any other player on the pitch.
PHIL JONES | MAN UTD
Jones made 10 clearances at the Liberty Stadium; the most of any Manchester United player.
HARRY MAGUIRE | LEICESTER CITY
The new signing from Hull made five clearances and scored the second of his team’s two goals against Brighton.
MARCOS ALONSO | CHELSEA
Alonso scored twice from Chelsea’s only two shots on target at Wembley. The Spaniard opened the scoring with a perfectly-struck free kick in the first half, before drilling a shot past Hugo Lloris in the Spurs goal during the late stages of the game.
TOM CLEVERLEY | WATFORD
The former Manchester United midfielder completed 92 per cent of his passes as the Hornets recorded victory away at Bournemouth.
JAMES MILNER | LIVERPOOL
Milner made more passes than any other Liverpool player (108), as well as posting the best completion rate (93%).
SADIO MANE | LIVERPOOL
Mane scored the winning goal and was responsible for more shots on target than any other Liverpool player (4) against Crystal Palace.
HENRIKH MKHITARYAN | MAN UTD
Mkhitaryan provided two assists in his team’s 4-0 win over Swansea (four key passes overall).
JESE RODRIGUEZ | STOKE CITY
The on-loan PSG man scored the winner and made three key passes against Arsenal. Having joined Mark Hughes’ side on a season-long loan, the Spaniard was thrown straight into the Potters side and repaid his new manager with a clever finish against Petr Cech.
JAVIER HERNANDEZ | WEST HAM
Chicharito netted twice on his second league outing for West Ham, from just three shots (inc. blocks) overall. The former Manchester United forward took advantage of a Fraser Forster mistake to tap in for his first against Southampton, before smashing home his second from close range.
