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.
7RB – Nathaniel Clyne – Liverpool
Liverpool right-back Nathaniel Clyne’s solid work rate is one of the many reasons manager Jurgen Klopp’s side have started the 2016-17 season so well (5-1-1).
Playing every minute in the campaign so far, his movement up the right flank and passing ability has helped drive the Reds’ attack. Liverpool have scored the most goals (18) and taken the most shots (135) of any club in the Premier League so far this season.
For Liverpool to press the opposition and hold a high line, the team will need strong defenders at the back and Klopp has just that with Nathaniel Clyne.
