The international break has ended, and the focus in many parts of the globe returns to Premier League action. Talented footballers from around the league featured for their countries during the past week and will be eager to continue with their club sides.
With Matchweek 8 ahead of us this weekend, we take a look at the players who have made the greatest impact thus far in our Premier League Best XI.
10LB – Cesar Azpilicueta – Chelsea
Now in his fifth season with Chelsea, Spanish international Cesar Azpilicueta has been a steady fixture at the left-back position for the Blues.
He has played every minute of the 2016-17 season thus far, and his skill on the ball can be an advantage both in defence and in the attack.
Azpilicueta’s flexibility can be a major tactical asset for manager Antonio Conte as well, as he can play in both a right-back and midfield role.
