Andrea Consigli was the clear choice as the best No.1 thanks to his penalty-saving heroics. First he kept out Joaquin Larrivey's spot-kick, then he parried away Daniele Conti's effort from 12 yards as Atalanta earned a point from their trip to Cagliari. Unfortunately for Consigli, he didn't make it to the end of the game, having been forced to leave on a stretcher after sustaining a knock to the head in a heavy collision.
Lazio's 3-0 victory over Palermo was notable for an excellent performance by right-back Abdoulay Konko, while Paolo Cannavaro was able to deal with both the Fiorentina attack and the horrendous surface to help Napoli continue their 100 per cent start. A debut performance to be proud of at Bologna earns Milan's Francesco Acerbi the nod at centre-back, while the versatile Nicolas Burdisso fits in at left-back after he helped to keep out Diego Milito and his former club Inter in Roma's 3-1 win.
Burdisso is joined in the Team of the Week by Giallorossi team-mate Alessandro Florenzi, who wowed many with his fantastic performance at San Siro, capped by the opening goal in Roma's win. Andrea Pirlo made the most of being given the freedom of the Friuli to lead Juventus to a comprehensive victory against Udinese, while Marek Hamsik earned a second successive call for our XI with another opening goal and another key contribution as Napoli saw off Fiorentina at 'Spiaggia San Paolo'.
Up top, it was goals galore in Serie A, with Sebastian Giovinco scoring two and winning a penalty in Juve's 4-1 win, and Miroslav Klose scored two of his own as Lazio's penalty-box poacher punished Palermo. However, Giampaolo Pazzini went one better on his Milan debut, netting a hat-trick in the Rossoneri's much-needed 3-1 victory away to Bologna.
