English Premier League: Boxing Day - Team of the week

Manchester City v Liverpool - Premier League

Eden Hazard

Game in game out, Eden Hazard is starting to ferment his place as the Premier League’s best player, with the exception of the competition from Liverpool’s Luis Suarez. In what was a flat performance from Chelsea, Hazard always looked like a threat as he scored the only goal to put Swansea to the sword. A rumoured offer from Real Madrid on the horizon, Chelsea have it all to do to keep hold of him.

Loic Remy

Missed a penalty, but scored a brace to make up for it, Loic Remy is the player that Newcastle needed after losing Demba Ba to Chelsea and also with Papiss Cisse’s fall from grace at St. James’ Park. If Newcastle want to qualify for the Champions League, they need Champions League quality players, and in Remy, they have just that.

Theo Walcott

West Ham United v Arsenal - Premier League

Saved Arsenal’ blushes with a late brace to dig his side out of what was looking like a 1-0 loss to lowly West Ham. Walcott may be one of the least multi-skilled players in world football, and is by far the most route 1 player in the Arsenal squad, but in the Premier League, that is just what you need against the smaller clubs.
