There were some fine performances during the second weekend of the Premier League season.

Hat-tricks, penalty saves and even a maiden goal in August. But which players stood out the most, you ask? Here’s the Onefootball Premier League Team of the Weekend.

GK – Neil Etheridge – Cardiff City

We’re only into the second week of the Premier League season and already Neil Etheridge has made two penalty saves.

After denying Bournemouth’s Callum Wilson on the opening day, the Philippines stopper was again the hero as he denied Newcastle’s Kenedy in the sixth minute of injury-time to earn the Bluebirds a point.

OK, so it wasn’t the best penalty in the world but Etheridge did his job when the pressure was on, kept a clean sheet and Cardiff are off the mark.

RB – Ricardo Pereira – Leicester City

Signed from Porto after a season-long loan at Nice early in the summer, the right-back was a livewire on the opening day against Manchester United and again showed plenty of energy as he assisted James Maddison in Leicester’s 2-0 victory over Wolves.

He looks like the perfect fit for the Premier League and appears a threat for the Foxes, especially on the counterattack.

CB – Shane Duffy – Brighton

A first Premier League goal for the Republic of Ireland international and a man of the match performance in a victory over Manchester United; not a bad weekend.

CB – Steve Cook – Bournemouth

Most strikers would be happy with a goal, assist and victory away from home so kudos to Bournemouth defender Steve Cook for his performance in Saturday’s win at West Ham.

The centre-back was in fine form as the Cherries made it six points from two games.

LB – Benjamin Mendy – Manchester City

The Manchester City wing-back was like a steam train in City’s 6-1 rout of Huddersfield, a game in which he recorded two assists. It may be hard to imagine, but Pep Guardiola’s men may just go up another level following the Frenchman’s return.

RW – David Silva – Manchester City

The performance of the season so far. Silva effortlessly ran the show as City tore the Terriers apart and scored a sublime free-kick, curling the ball high into the top corner.

It was absolute perfection from a player who is still criminally underrated compared to other midfielders of the Premier League era.

CM – Abdoulaye Doucouré – Watford

What. A. Pass. The gangly midfielder produced a stunning through ball to thread Troy Deeney in to score against Burnley on Sunday. Doucouré has earned rave reviews since joining the Hornets from Rennes in 2016. It is he who makes the team tick and was instrumental at Turf Moor.

CM – Jorginho – Chelsea

Exquisite passes caught our eye this weekend in the middle of the park and the one produced by Jorginho this weekend is enough for him to earn his place in our team of the weekend for a consecutive time.

The Italy international curled the ball round the Arsenal defender and into the path Marcos Alonso who crossed for Álvaro Morata to open the scoring against Arsenal. Jorginho looks to be adapting to the demands of the English game very nicely.

LW – Richarlison – Everton

Some raised their eyebrows at the Toffees paying €45m for the Brazilian’s services after just a single year in the Premier League though it seems Richarlison is already forcing his doubters to retreat a little. After a brace at Wolves, the wideman completed an industrious display on his home debut with a well-taken header taking his tally to three.

ST – Sergio Agüero – Manchester City

Hat-trick hero Agüero has been “perfect” since returning from his summer break, according to manager Guardiola who reserved a kiss for the striker as he came off the pitch. One of the finest finishers in Premier League history, the Argentine took full advantage of Huddersfield’s lax defending as City hit them for six.

ST – Harry Kane – Tottenham

He has finally scored in August.

The striker had never netted in the first month of the Premier League but finally broke the hoodoo with a goal in Tottenham’s victory over Fulham. Now he’s off the mark, there will be no stopping him this season.
