Troy Deeney explains why he has picked out Bruno Guimaraes for his Premier League team of the week and then the full eleven (twelve) are listed below:

“Bruno Guimaraes (Newcastle):

“Excellent even though he was on the losing team, he was the heartbeat, made tackles and scored the goal to get his side back in the game.

“He was like a conductor, making sure everybody was playing to his tune and kept going – and he made Liverpool really sweat and worry.

“After losing Sandro Tonali and Joelinton, he made sure they kicked on again.

“I thought he was fantastic.”

No arguments from me on this Troy Deeney selection.

Bruno Guimaraes was absolutely outstanding, the best player on the pitch.

A number of other candidates of course who could also have been included by Troy Deeney. Dan Burn and Tino Livramento were also stand out performers, Joelinton as well until injury forced him off the pitch.
