Shearer: Sensational Lewis-Skelly has a bright future

Arsenal’s Myles Lewis-Skelly enjoyed a breakout performance in Sunday’s emphatic 5-1 win over Manchester City, capped off with his first goal for the club.

The 18-year-old scored the Gunners’ third goal and produced a display that belied his age, with Alan Shearer, the Premier League's record goalscorer, proclaiming the left-back has a really bright future.

Lewis-Skelly, who is keeping Riccardo Calafiori and Oleksandr Zinchenko out of Arsenal's starting line-up, is selected in Shearer's Matchweek 24 Team of the Week, alongside his team-mates David Raya and Declan Rice.

David Raya (Arsenal)
"Made some big saves in the first half and once again showed his quality against high-class opposition."

Ben Davies (Spurs)
"Was outstanding at the back for Tottenham Hotspur, keeping a clean sheet against a dangerous Brentford attack."

Djed Spence (Spurs)
"Produced a superb goalline clearance and didn’t give Bryan Mbeumo a kick."

Myles Lewis-Skelly (Arsenal)
"Wow! What a future he has. A sensational performance capped off with his first goal for the club."

Jean-Ricner Bellegarde (Wolves)
"His best performance for Wolves, scoring the opening goal in a vital victory over Midlands rivals Aston Villa."

Declan Rice (Arsenal)
"Was their driving force in the Arsenal midfield. Manchester City simply couldn’t cope with his aggression."

Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)
"Was again the difference for Liverpool, with his two goals earning the Reds a big win at high-flying Bournemouth."

Anthony Elanga (Nottingham Forest)
"A hat-trick of assists and tore Brighton to shreds. The Swede is really flourishing under Nuno Espirito Santo."

Chris Wood (Nottingham Forest)
"His season just keeps on getting better. The Brighton defence simply couldn’t handle him."

Beto (Everton)
"Produced two great finishes and took his opportunity following the injury to Dominic Calvert-Lewin with both hands."

Jean-Philippe Mateta (Crystal Palace)
"Another two goals and ran the Man Utd defence ragged as Crystal Palace picked up a third consecutive away win."

Manager: Nuno Espirito Santo (Nottingham Forest)
"What a response following the 5-0 defeat to Bournemouth! A 7-0 thrashing of Brighton to earn Forest's biggest Premier League victory ever."
