Manchester United's Anthony Martial has retained his place atop the Power Rankings.

The France international temporarily reduced the deficit to just one goal during the Manchester derby on Sunday, after this week's runner-up David Silva and Sergio Aguero (No 4) had struck early in both halves.

Additionally, City trio Raheem Sterling (No 8), Fernandinho (No 10) and Bernardo Silva (No 11) were also among the top performers, although Ilkay Gundogan only reached No 140 - despite sealing the 3-1 win in the 86th minute.

Spurs goalkeeper Hugo Lloris (No 3) made four big saves during a 1-0 win at Crystal Palace, while Everton stopper Jordan Pickford (No 6) kept a clean sheet in a goalless stalemate at Chelsea to maintain his top-10 standing.

West Ham's Felipe Anderson (No 5) salvaged a point for his side with a late leveller in a 1-1 draw at Huddersfield - his third goal in just two games.

Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah broke the deadlock in a 2-0 win against Fulham, while Wilfred Ndidi topped a raft of stats during Leicester's 0-0 draw with Burnley - including shots, passes, interceptions, aerials and duels.
