Garth Crooks   https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/54151622

Castagne: Leicester were 3-0 up at The Hawthorns and they had hardly broken a sweat. West Brom had spent so much energy trying to contain the visitors, it was only a matter of time before cracks began to appear in their defence.

It was Timothy Castagne who made the breakthrough - and the fact that the defender turned up in the Albion box in open play says about as much as anyone can about the way Brendan Rodgers wants his team to play.

It's always a very good sign when players other than strikers want to score goals.

Castagne is in. 

 

But as a left back...

Did you know? Timothy Castagne became the fifth Belgian to score on his Premier League debut, after Luc Nilis, Thomas Vermaelen, Christian Benteke and Leandro Trossard.

I've merged yours with mine, I thought it best to keep it "open" rather than just focussing on Garth Crooks, hope that's ok with you.

That’s almost a balanced team for Crooks for once 

Amazing what happens when you haven't got to squeeze in a Man City/Man Utd player....

WhoScored Team of the Week - Praet and Vardy

 

D9805931-2EA7-42B9-8068-92AA752769A4.jpeg

Dennis Praet (Leicester) - 7.69
After a modest debut campaign for Leicester, Foxes fans will hope to see more of the same from Dennis Praet's opening day exploits. The Belgian midfielder clipped in a delightful cross for compatriot Timothy Castagne to head home the opening goal against West Brom on his debut, and mustered two shots and two tackles in an improved showing.

 

Jamie Vardy (Leicester) - 7.99
Having been frustrated for much of the game against newly promoted West Brom, Vardy eventually had the last laugh, scoring two penalties to put the win beyond any doubt for Leicester. The veteran striker also created a chance and helped out at the opposite end with two clearances.

Alisson (Liverpool)
Last week Jamie Carragher compared him to Simon Mignolet. Baffling. This weekend, was back to something like his best at Chelsea. Wasn’t overworked, but did everything he needed to do well, and made a fine penalty stop to deny Jorginho.

 

Timothy Castagne (Leicester City)
Starting Premier League life where he left off in Serie A at Atalanta, the Belgian works his socks off down the right and showed against Burnley that he’s a major threat from fullback.


Ben White (Brighton)
It’s easy to see why Leeds United were so desperate to sign him, and why Brighton just didn’t want to let him go. White mixed smart, physical defending with good use of the ball in the Seagulls win at Newcastle.

 

Fabinho (Liverpool)
Starting at centre-back, the Brazilian was outstanding for the champions at Stamford Bridge. Used the ball diligently and was rock solid throughout, giving Timo Werner no joy whatsoever.

The forward, who arrived at Anfield last week, commented on Fabinho's Instagram post with 'what a game'

Tyreek Mitchell (Crystal Palace)
An excellent showing at left-back from the youngster, who is going from strength to strength. Locked up Dan James in the first half while also playing a part in the Eagles opener.

 

Kevin de Bruyne (Manchester City)
The Belgian was head and shoulders above everyone else on the field as City won 3-1 at Wolves on Monday night. Picked up where he left off last season.


Mateusz Klich (Leeds United)
The Polish international produced an all-action display in Leeds’ 4-3 thriller against Fulham. Klich, 30, scored one and produced a sublime assist for Patrick Bamford.

 

Son Heung-min (Tottenham)
An absolute joke how clean his finishing was at St Mary’s, as he helped himself to four goals. His movement off the ball too was fantastic, Southampton couldn’t get a grip of him.


Harry Kane (Tottenham)
One goal, four assists, it was a real tour de force of centre-forward play from Kane. His vision and technique to both see and execute some difficult passes to play Son in behind was terrific.

 

Dominic Calvert-Lewin (Everton)
The England striker has been working hard with Duncan Ferguson to sand down the rough edges in his game and it’s starting to work out for him. Carlo Ancelotti wants him in the six yard box more and believe there’s no reason he can’t hit 20-plus goals this term. Four goals already is a perfect start.

 

Sadio Mane (Liverpool)
The Senegalese star saw Mo Salah take the acclaim for an opening day hat-trick against Leeds and promptly produced a match winning display of his own at Stamford Bridge. Two goals, a key role in Andreas Christensen’s red card, and a display full of skill and tenacity.

Surprised Lamptey didn't get into that TOTW. He put in one of the best right back performances i've seen.

Brighton did well to sign him. Chelsea are going to regret that one.

So after putting 5 past a Pep team ( for the first time in his career) at their ground no less, only Vardy gets into Crooks' team. Despite Tielemans and Maddison having passed the Crooks test of scoring. But great to see he has a new bumboy in James lol

WhoScored Team of the Week - Vardy

 

1718F2B0-BABF-4522-9483-7FC8FB60889D.jpeg

 

Jamie Vardy (Leicester) - 9.60

 

Saving the best until last, Jamie Vardy was in rampant form for Leicester as they landed an impressive 5-2 win at Manchester City on Sunday afternoon. Vardy hit the back of the net with all three shots in the victory to take his total to five league goals of the season. His hat-trick saw a Pep Guardiola side ship five for the first time in a league match in his career as the 33-year-old returned a WhoScored rating of 9.60 at the Etihad Stadium.

Was going to come in and write this, if City had put 5 past us they'd have a clutch of players in.

I suspect he just looks at the points on FPL or something. It's a good thing really - shows how good we are throughout the side.
