Team of the Week 13

Another great weekend of Premiership action is over, and all eyes turn to England's performance against Holland on Wednesday night. I don't think that it will be a positive result, but if we play well then we could steal a draw. I guess it all boils down to how seriously the Dutch take the game. If they come out all guns blazing, we could be embarrassed.

Here is the YTM Team of the Week for week 13 of the Premiership:

S Harper
Newcastle United - £3m
6 Points
A Man of the Match performance against Manchester City, in a match that was described by some commentators as 'seriously lacking in everything'!

W Gallas
Arsenal - £8m
13 points
Clean Sheet for Arsenal, and a good headed goal for William... Where was the Liverpool defence?!

K Toure
Arsenal - £6.5m
13 Points
For some reason Toure found himself bombing forward, and with only Reina to beat, he finished as if he was Henry!

Geremi
Chelsea - £4m
9 points
Geremi gave Mourinho a selection headache with a superb performance, contributing with two Key Contributions.

N Shorey
Reading - £2m
9 Points
The young left-back found himself in space and drilled a lovely shot into the left-hand corner of Paul Robinson's goal.

S Sidwell
Reading - £4m
8 Points
Sidwell took advantage of some seriously poor defending to ghost in and poach a goal for Reading.

M Flamini
Arsenal - £4m
8 Points
Flamini scored the first for Arsenal in their emphatic win against the Fallen Kop Idols. Fair play to anyone who had money on Arsenal's three scorers!

G Little
Reading - £2.5m
6 Points
Two Key Contributions for Little in Reading's confident victory over Spurs.

D Drogba
Chelsea - £7.5m
16 Points
No doubt the best player of the weekend. Drogba's predatory hat-trick has shown us that he is bang-on form, and it will take something special to stop him at the moment.

A Shevchenko
Chelsea - £8m
10 Points
'Sheva' gave an all-round performance on Saturday, with two Key Contributions and a well-taken goal. He would have had another, but for a linesman's poor offside decision.

E-H Diouf
Bolton Wanderers - £4.5m
6 Points
Diouf is one of those players that you hate, but would love to see in your team! A goal and a Man of the Match performance on Saturday gave weight to those claims.


Drogba and Shevchenko are looking ominously good... Struggling West Ham are next at the Bridge on Saturday...

...I smell a rout...
