Premier League team of matchweek 12: Toure to the rescue, Winks delights White Hart Lane

As the Toffees went all out for an equaliser it was cunning Coleman who stepped up in the last minute to nod home and preserve a point.

Centre back: Nathan Ake (Bournemouth)

But not only did the Dutch defender help Bournemouth keep a clean sheet, the 21-year-old also converted the Cherries’ winner from a Junior Stanislas cross.

Centre back: Virgil van Dijk (Southampton)

Van Dijk has been a standout for far this season for Saints and his composure to commit to a last-gasp blocked clearance ensured Southampton thwarted Liverpool. After helping ensure the stalemate, Van Dijk may well become another St Mary’s target for the Reds…

Left back: Patrick van Aanholt (Sunderland)

Central midfield: Yaya Toure (Manchester City)

There was a point to prove to Pep Guardiola, and the Ivorian answered critics with a classy and crucial deadly double to help City sneak past Crystal Palace 2-1.

Central midfield: Harry Winks (Tottenham)

Despite an all-round accomplished performance, Winks’ opportunistic strike to level with West Ham United hinted at big things for the White Hart Lane club’s academy product.

Central midfield: Ander Herrera (Manchester United)

A lovely lofted little assist combined with plenty of usual bite gives the recent Spain cap a slot in our side, as his play helped Man Utd frequently dominate and be unlucky to only come away with a point.

Right wing: Juan Mata (Manchester United)

Left wing: Victor Anichebe (Sunderland)

Following up on his goal from last matchweek, the Nigerian net threat bagged a brace that gave the Black Cats a massive boost to defeat relegation rivals Hull. Now 28, ex-Everton forward Anichebe is proving a game-changer for his old Toffees boss David Moyes.

Centre forward: Harry Kane (Tottenham)

Turning around the London liaison with two late goals to hand Mauricio Pochettino’s men all three points was vintage Kane, and his match-winning brace ensures the England striker starts up top for our XI.
