FotMob ratings highlight a group of players whose contributions shaped results.<\/p>\n<p>Nottingham Forest\u2019s 5\u20130 win over Sunderland produced one of the round\u2019s biggest shocks and Igor Jesus was central to it (rating: 8.4). The Brazilian striker played 67 minutes, touched the ball 19 times, the fewest among Forest\u2019s starters, yet returned a goal, an assist and a deflected strike that became an own goal.<\/p>\n<p>Fulham\u2019s 1\u20130 victory over Aston Villa provided a timely boost for the Cottagers (rating: 8.4). Home possession was just 39 percent, and Joachim Andersen led Fulham defensively with four tackles, four interceptions and seven clearances.<\/p>\n<p>Brighton\u2019s 3\u20130 win over Chelsea began the round emphatically and Ferdi Kad\u0131o\u011flu was one of the standout performers (rating: 8.5). The left back opened the scoring and finished the match leading both for shots on target with three and interceptions with three.<\/p>\n<p>Manchester City\u2019s 1\u20130 win at Burnley featured strong creative work from Rayan Cherki (rating: 8.5), who created eight chances, the most of any player. Bernardo Silva (rating: 8.6) was the closest to Cherki\u2019s creativity with seven chances created and has recently adapted into a deeper role, combining that passing with a team-high 12 defensive contributions. His departure this summer is going to hit City far harder than most realize.<\/p>\n<p>Morgan Gibbs-White starred again for Nottingham Forest (rating: 8.6). He required one shot to score and created one chance that became an assist, following a three-goal game the previous week.<\/p>\n<p>Burnley faced an intense Manchester City attack with 28 shots; Martin D\u00fabravka (rating: 8.7) conceded once but made eight saves and prevented a total expected goals of 2.16.<\/p>\n<p>Alexis Mac Allister produced one of the top individual displays in Liverpool\u2019s 3\u20131 win over Crystal Palace (rating: 8.7). After an assist for Alexander Isak\u2019s opening goal, he added a second assist with a delicate touch for Florian Wirtz in stoppage time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A seven-day Gameweek saw shocks and standout displays, with Forest, City and Brighton stars in form.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13249,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1602,298,969],"tags":[195,1023,988],"class_list":["post-13250","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gameweek-34","category-nottingham-forest","category-premier-league","tag-alexander-isak","tag-alexis-mac-allister","tag-bernardo-silva"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13250","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13250"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13250\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13249"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13250"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13250"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13250"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
