**Alphonse Areola (West Ham)**: Areola was instrumental in West Ham’s 2-2 draw against Bournemouth, showcasing exceptional goalkeeping skills. Without his efforts, West Ham could have faced a significant defeat, which might have jeopardized their season.

**Daniel Munoz (Crystal Palace)**: Munoz has emerged as a contender for Player of the Season, consistently outperforming expectations amidst discussions surrounding Arsenal players. His contributions have been remarkable.

**Murillo (Nottingham Forest)**: Few would have predicted a 3-0 victory for Forest at Anfield, particularly with Murillo scoring. His performance was outstanding, demonstrating his potential as a formidable player. It’s encouraging to see him continue his form from last season.

**Malick Thiaw (Newcastle)**: After facing criticism during his time at AC Milan, Thiaw has transformed into a key player at Newcastle. He has displayed strength and elegance on the field, suggesting he has found his ideal environment.

**Ferdi Kadioglu (Brighton)**: Although not a traditional left-back, Kadioglu has proven to be an excellent find for Brighton. His ability to contribute offensively has proven valuable, and the club’s decision to part with Pervis Estupinan has been more justified than initially thought.

**Sander Berge (Fulham) and Elliot Anderson (Nottingham Forest)**: Both players play crucial roles in their teams’ success, often overshadowed by goalscorers but essential to the teams’ overall performance. Their ability to disrupt play and support attacking moves is vital.

**Eberechi Eze (Arsenal)**: Eze has become the focal point for Arsenal, particularly after his stellar performance in the North London derby, where he scored three goals. His composure and leadership on the pitch have made him a standout player.

**Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa)**: Rogers has reached a point where he is becoming indispensable for Aston Villa. Despite a rocky start to the season, he has emerged as a key player, scoring twice against Leeds to turn the game around.

**Callum Wilson (West Ham)**: Initially perceived as lacking his usual form, Wilson surprised many with a phenomenal display. His two goals were crucial, showcasing his ability to perform when needed.

**Harvey Barnes (Newcastle)**: Traditionally more effective coming off the bench, Barnes stepped up in the absence of an injured Anthony Gordon. Despite missing a crucial opportunity against Manchester City, he demonstrated resilience by scoring twice.

**Sean Dyche (Nottingham Forest)**: Dyche’s tactical acumen led to a dominant performance from Nottingham Forest, where a higher scoreline could have been justified. His game plan was executed brilliantly.
