Alan Shearer has chosen the eleven players (and manager) who most impressed him in this past weekend’s round of matches in the top tier.

The player turned pundit naming his Premier League team of the week.

Alan Shearer including two players who stood out for NUFC in the Newcastle 2 Chelsea 2 match.

A brilliant first half performance and a decent second half one, that overall deserved a United win for sure.

However, Newcastle United having to settle for a point.

The Alan Shearer Premier League team of the week:

Emiliano Martinez (Aston Villa)

Lewis Miley (Newcastle United)
“Kept Alejandro Garnacho quiet and performed maturely in an unfamiliar role.”

Joachim Andersen (Fulham)

Dan Ballard (Sunderland)

Keane Lewis-Potter (Brentford)

Reece James (Chelsea)

Declan Rice (Arsenal)

Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa)

Dominic Calvert-Lewin (Leeds)

Erling Haaland (Man City)

Nick Woltemade (Newcastle United)
“Chelsea could not handle his presence in the first half as he scored twice.”

Manager: Daniel Farke (Leeds)

Both Lewis Miley and Nick Woltemade deserved to be on the winning side for sure, along with many of their Newcastle United teammates.

A couple of badly defended Chelsea goals undermining a very good team display.
