Callum Hudson-Odoi was brilliant for Chelsea against Newcastle, completing 85% of his passes, five dribbles and making four ball recoveries.

He also became the second youngest player in Premier League history (18y 346d) to assist in three consecutive appearances, behind only Michael Owen (18y 27d).

Talk about settling back in.


Lautaro Martínez

After starting the season with just one goal in four games, Lautaro Martínez made it four in his next four after scoring twice against Sassuolo.

El Toro has already proven his worth as a finisher, but it’s his all round game – pressing, running the channels, link up – that will impress Antonio Conte.

Finding his feet.


Martin Ødegaard

Martin Ødegaard put in another brilliant display for Real Sociedad, helping put Real Betis to the sword at Anoeta.

The 20-year-old thrives on full attacking responsibility and his outrageous scooped pass helped Portu put the game beyond doubt.

We’re starting the fan club.
