A new day of the Premier League passed, with great matches, very good individual performances by some footballers and some surprises. On this occasion, with a 4-2-2-2 formation, we bring the ideal eleven of the date.

The Everton goalkeeper, Robin Olsen, had a great performance in the 2-1 win against Leeds. Replacing neither more nor less than a historical one like Jordan Pickford, Olsen made six stops to avoid a second fall from his fence in the game and thus lead to the victory of his squad.
Defenders

One of the great keys to Brighton’s 1-0 triumph at Anfield Road was the enormous work done by their defensive duo, made up of Lewis Dunk Y Adam Webster, who managed to counter the attacks of the ‘Reds‘and keep his fence undefeated to surprise friends and strangers.
On the sides, you cannot ignore the real game that the two Manchester United played, Aaron Wan-Bissaka Y Luke Shaw. On the one hand, Wan-Bissaka converted to open the way to the historic 9-0 against Southampton, while Luke Shaw continues to show his great level, this time with two assists, one of them for the goal of his defensive partner.
Midfielders

Another who remains at a very high level in Manchester United is Bruno Fernandes, who once again was fundamental in the victory of the ‘Red Devils‘, with one goal and two assists, showing in each game that he is the driving force behind this Old Trafford team that wants to raise the coveted Premier League trophy again.
On the side ‘Citizen‘Manchester is Ilkay Gündogan, another that raised his game a lot and today is once again important in the consideration of Pep Guardiola. If we talk about the city of Manchester, special mention for Jesse Lingard, who went on loan from United to West Ham and, in his debut, scored a double for the 3-1 win for the ‘Hammers‘in front of Aston Villa.
Finally, half the court is closed with James Maddison, figure in the victory of the ‘Foxes‘, with two assists for the final 2-0 against Fulham. The English midfielder continues to show off his great footballing quality and at the King Power Stadium they know that it will be difficult to keep him for another season.
Forwards

With so much quality in the midfield during matchday 22, there has been little left for the forwards, although some have managed to stand out, such as Billy Sharp, who had a great performance for Sheffield United, against tough West Bromwich Albion, and managed to give his squad all three points with the final 2-1.
Too Dominic Calvert-Lewin managed to find a place. The Everton forward had a promising start to the season, but along with the rest of his teammates fell to a low level and today they are trying to recover some of that good football that they showed. For now, the English striker converted 2-1 and the ‘Toffees‘beat Leeds United.
