The prospect of facing Raheem Sterling at the Etihad Stadium can be daunting for Premier League defenders, but Aaron Wan-Bissaka rose to the challenge on Saturday.

The 22-year-old Manchester United right-back ensured Sterling had a frustrating afternoon as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side won the derby 2-1.

Wan-Bissaka's performance earned him a place in Premier League Champion Alan Shearer's Team of the Week.

Martin Dubravka (NEW) | NEW 2-1 SOU

A key figure again in Newcastle United's latest victory, making vital saves in a tight contest.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka (MUN) | MCI 1-2 MUN

Facing a really tricky customer in Sterling, he defended incredibly well and didn't give the Manchester City winger a kick.

Mason Holgate (EVE) | EVE 3-1 CHE

Superb in everything he did. Everton's defence was much improved against a dangerous Chelsea side.

Jonny Evans (LEI) | AVL 1-4 LEI

Only getting better with age. He reads the game well and gives everyone around him confidence.

Enda Stevens (SHU) | NOR 1-2 SHU

Sheffield United are still undefeated away from home and the left wing-back has more than played his part. This time he scored the equalising goal.

Scott McTominay (MUN) | MCI 1-2 MUN

A brilliant display against class opposition, giving Manchester United's pacy forwards opportunities to hurt the champions on the counter.

Jordan Henderson (LIV) | BOU 0-3 LIV

His energy and passing was superb and he provided a well-earned assist.

Son Heung-min (TOT) | TOT 5-0 BUR

His run from inside his own half will surely be a Goal of the Season contender and he set up another strike, too.

Harry Kane (TOT) | TOT 5-0 BUR

Produced two clinical finishes, showed intelligent movement and his fine passing ability set up the assist for Moussa Sissoko's goal.

Jamie Vardy (LEI) | AVL 1-4 LEI

Added two more goals to his tally. There is just no stopping the Premier League's leading scorer.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin (EVE) | EVE 3-1 CHE

Bullied Chelsea's back four and scored two very important goals. He looks set to be an influential figure while Duncan Ferguson is in charge at Goodison Park.

Manager: Duncan Ferguson (EVE) | EVE 3-1 CHE

Inspired a performance full of energy and aggression and the crowd responded. No one will fancy visiting Goodison if Everton keep playing like that in front of their home fans.
