Eurosport tend to like devising their own ratings lists. You will remember when on this site we reported recently about their top 20 European teams.
This list was, prior to the defeat at Seville, headed by Arsenal due to their excellent unbeaten form in the Premier League and in Europe.
Eurosport have also devised a way of arriving at the top Premier League player for each position every week. This is done by using the player ratings as reported by five national newspapers, Guardian, Times, Sun, Mirror and Mail.
The top performer of the past week was Wenger reject David Bentley, following his two-goal display for Blackburn against Newcastle, with a rating of 43 (out of 50).
Arsenal’s Alex Hleb described as the "Minsk Maradona" with his magical display at Villa is joint second with Fernando Torres of Liverpool with 41 marks.
Three of Arsenal’s French contingent also make it in the super 11. They are Bakary Sagna (35), Gael Clichy (35) and Mathieu Flamini (39).
Surprisingly no Manchester United player makes it on the list.
Team of the Week:
Brad Friedel (Blackburn Rovers)- 36
Bacary Sagna (Arsenal) - 35
Joleon Lescott (Everton) - 39
Martin Laursen (Aston Villa) - 38
Gael Clichy (Arsenal) - 35
David Bentley (Blackburn Rovers) - 43
Mathieu Flamini (Arsenal) - 39
Steven Gerrard (Liverpool) - 38
Joe Cole (Chelsea) - 36
Alexander Hleb (Arsenal) - 41
Fernando Torres (Liverpool) - 41

we will soon be having all 11 players in the team of the week!
torres has been outstanding since his move to liverpool and so has been hleb. Hleb's close control and his brilliant vision has made him the best performer at arsenal. I think one day he will be able to run with the ball looking like it is tied to his feel.
1.Brilliant dribbler
2.'' '' passer
3.'' '' character.
Torres
--------
I still cannot say that he is a good dribbler or a passer. Most of the goals he scored has been one on one vs the keeper. His best was against chelsea. He is not a morientes and a luis garcia. Lets see who is the best
Interesting comparison between torres and hleb. They play in different positions of course but both have been top performers for their clubs
