  • Folarin Balogun Arsenal

    Folarin Balogun

    Balogun continues to be uninvolved with the Arsenal first-team, missing Saturday’s 3-0 win over Southampton, and his position does not change.

  • Eberechi Eze - Crystal PalaceEberechi Eze - Crystal Palace

    Eberechi Eze

    Eze played no part in Sunday’s 3-1 success over Everton. Thus, he remains in situ in our rankings.

  • Watford and Nigeria midfielder Peter Etebo.Watford.

    Peter Etebo

    The injured Watford star dropped a place last week but is a beneficiary of Eze not getting game time against Everton.

  • Carney Chukwuemeka Aston Villa 2021-22Getty Images

    Carney Chukwuemeka

    Chukwuemeka supplanted Etebo last week but was not involved in Aston Villa’s 1-0 loss at Liverpool at the weekend, losing the chance to supplant anyone above him.

  • Troost-EkongGetty

    William Troost-Ekong

    While Troost-Ekong had a better evening at Brentford Community Stadium, the final 10 minutes underscored his recent struggles.

    The centre-back lost Pontus Jansson for Brentford’s equaliser before unwisely going to the ground to concede a penalty at the death.

  • Alex IwobiGetty

    Alex Iwobi

    Iwobi did not feature in Everton’s defeat by Palace and remains in his old position as a consequence.

  • Ademola Lookman - Leicester CityGetty Images

    Ademola Lookman

    Lookman missed Leicester City’s 4-0 hammering of Newcastle United on Sunday. He neither moves up nor falls in our rankings this weekend.

  • Michael OliseGetty

    Michael Olise

    Despite being an unused substitute against Everton, Olise will hope appearances in future will help him to supplant Kelechi Iheanacho.

  • Kelechi Iheanacho Leicester 2021-22Getty

    Kelechi Iheanacho

    An injury ruled out the left-footed hitman against Newcastle but he was unlikely to feature from the off anyway, with game time at a premium before Sunday.

  • Frank Onyeka - BrentfordGetty Images

    Frank Onyeka

    Onyeka was lively after coming off the bench in the Bees’ turnaround against Watford. He, however, does not move up owing to the strong individual showings from the pair above him.

  • Yves Bissouma, Wilfred NdidiGetty

    Wilfred Ndidi

    The Leicester anchorman had a good game as the Foxes defeated Newcastle 4-0 at the King Power Stadium to record their first back-to-back wins on their turf.

    It was also the East Midlands side’s first clean sheet since the opening weekend of the season.

    Having said that, Ndidi does not displace the irrepressible Emmanuel Dennis.

  • Watford and Nigeria striker Emmanuel Dennis.Watford.

    Emmanuel Dennis

    Another strike for Dennis against Brentford took his Premier League tally to seven, outdone by only three players in the league.

    The Hornets marksman maintains his lead in our rankings.
