FotMob match ratings provide the framework for this roundup of the 10 best performers from Premier League gameweek 13. The list highlights players whose contributions shaped results across a busy weekend.<\/p>\n
Maxim De Cuyper began Sunday\u2019s trip to Nottingham Forest in an unfamiliar position as a winger and finished up front, racing through the centre to fire home Brighton & Hove Albion\u2019s opening goal in a hard-fought victory.<\/p>\n
Nottingham Forest\u2019s highest-rated player of the match was midfielder Elliot Anderson, who produced a rich individual display. He created a game-high six chances, won 12 duels and completed six dribbles, leading the match in those statistics.<\/p>\n
Aston Villa extended their winning run to five in all competitions with a 1\u20130 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers. Scotland international John McGinn played the pass that set up Boubacar Kamara\u2019s stunning winner and finished the game with four chances created, the most on the pitch for Unai Emery\u2019s side.<\/p>\n
Liverpool\u2019s 2\u20130 victory over West Ham United featured multiple narratives. Alexander Isak scored his first Premier League goal for the Reds, Florian Wirtz produced one of his best displays of the season, and Lucas Paquet\u00e1\u2019s late red card drew attention. Cody Gakpo combined for Isak\u2019s goal with an assist on the hour and then sealed the result with a stoppage-time strike.<\/p>\n
Sunderland recovered from two goals down to beat Bournemouth 3\u20132. Enzo Le F\u00e9e converted the penalty that initiated the comeback and later assisted Brian Brobbey for the winning header.<\/p>\n
Brentford\u2019s Igor Thiago scored twice in a 3\u20131 win over Burnley. His tally of 11 goals in 13 games for the Bees is bettered only by the 14 of Manchester City\u2019s Erling Haaland.<\/p>\n
Manchester United looked in trouble against Crystal Palace until Bruno Fernandes supplied two assists in quick succession: a free kick for Joshua Zirkzee\u2019s equaliser and another dead-ball delivery that allowed Mason Mount to score the winner. Fernandes now has five assists this season and leads the Premier League in that statistic.<\/p>\n
Newcastle United\u2019s 4\u20131 win over Everton featured strong displays from two young players. Lewis Miley, making only his third start, scored, assisted and produced notable defensive work. Malick Thiaw headed Newcastle in front after 56 seconds and added another header to seal the Magpies\u2019 first away win of the season; he also won six aerial duels and made five headed clearances against Thierno Barry.<\/p>\n
Manchester City\u2019s Phil Foden struck twice in a dramatic 3\u20132 win over Leeds United, scoring the fastest goal of the season at 59 seconds and then the winner a full 90 minutes later. City manager Pep Guardiola reflected: \u201cPhil has that [mentality] … \u2018Give me the ball, I want to dribble, I want to score and win the game.\u2019\u201d \u201cHe has this ambition and mentality since he was a little boy and I\u2019m happy for what he did. He was the man to win the game.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
