Premier League team of the weekend: Leicester City, Tottenham and Manchester United stars make the best XI of the action

It was yet another exciting weekend of action in the Premier League.

Leicester City eased to victory over Manchester City, leaving many scratching their heads as to the unpredictable nature of the 2015-16 campaign, while Sunderland stunned Liverpool by coming back from two goals down to steal a point at Anfield.

But which players got us talking over their impressive performances?

11 1. Goalkeeper: Petr Cech – find out the remaining 10 players to make our team of the weekend by clicking the arrow above – David De Gea has grabbed the headlines this weekend after a number of superb saves against Chelsea, but Cech is more than worthy of a mention. The 33-year-old kept Bournemouth at bay and tops the clean sheets tally, with 12. He also has the best save percentage in the Premier League with 79.05%  if he can maintain his performances, Arsenal cannot be ruled out for the title.

11 2. Right back: Kieran Trippier (Tottenham Hotspur) – Spurs summer signing has finally been handed a regular run of games by manager Mauricio Pochettino, and he looks to have moved ahead of Kyle Walker in the pecking order. The Englishman was the unexpected match-winner at White Hart Lane, latching on to a ball played across goal by Dele Alli at the far post. He was a danger all game, and his strike sent Tottenham to second in the league  only five points behind leaders Leicester City.

11 3. Centre back: Jores Okore (Aston Villa) – Okore, alongside goalscorer Joelon Lescott, enjoyed the victory over Norwich City. The signs are promising that the pair are beginning to form a solid partnership, which has lifted the mood of the Villa Park faithful. Okore made 14 clearances on Saturday, in what was a crucial three points for the home side.

11 4. Centre back: Robert Huth (Leicester City) – Many might not have expected a Huth brace against Premier League heavyweights Manchester City  but thats exactly what was delivered at the Etihad. Not only was his threat in the final third crucial, but his defensive display kept the world-class Sergio Aguero frustrated. A 3-1 victory sent the Foxes five points clear at the top of the table to further suggest that they can go all the way in the title race.

11 5. Left back: Cameron Borthwick-Jackson (Manchester United) – The emergence of Borthwick-Jackson could be the best thing to come out of Uniteds under-par season. The 19-year-old likely wouldnt have got his chance in the senior side had it not have been for injuries to Luke Shaw, Marcos Rojo and Daley Blind, but the youngster has proved that he can make the step up. With another assist, setting up Anders Lingard, this time against defending champions Chelsea, his reputation is certainly rising in Manchester.

11 6. Right midfield: Riyad Mahrez (Leicester City) – It is remarkable to remember that the majestic Mahrez cost the Foxes a mere £400,000 in January 2014. The Algerian has been crucial for Leicesters position at the top of the table. He provided the cross for Huths first goal against City and then eased round Martin Demichelis with a step over before firing the ball into the back of the net for their second. He could be the most in-demand player in the summer.

11 7. Centre midfield: Idrissa Gueye (Aston Villa) – Gueye put in an excellent shift in the Villans victory over Norwich City, with the 26-year-olds determination in the centre of the park finally suggesting that the club are not backing away from the fight as they look to avoid relegation. If they are to do so, though, Gueyes consistency could be imperative.

11 8. Left midfield: Jesse Lingard (Manchester United) – His exquisitely controlled finish, with his back to goal, against Chelsea looked to have won the game for the Red Devils. While his side conceded late to take only a point from the game, the winger again caught the eye and will certainly leave Roy Hodgson pondering whether he deserves in his England squad for the Euro 2016 finals.

11 9. Attacking midfield: Gylfi Sigurdsson (Swansea City) – The Swans have disappointed this season, spending much of their time flirting with the relegation zone. While they remain far too close to the bottom three, their form over the past month has been promising. One man who has been key to their improved form is Sigurdsson. The Iceland international opened the scoring with a free-kick at the weekend, taking his tally up to five goals in his last six league games.

11 10. Striker: Romelu Lukaku (Everton) – Lukaku scored from the penalty spot in the Toffees 3-0 victory over Stoke City to make it 16 goals for the season. The Belgian has written himself into his clubs history books  equalling Tony Cottees 16-goal haul in the 1993-94 campaign, but many more are expected. Keeping hold of the former Chelsea man should be a priority for Roberto Martinez and co. in the summer.
