Premier League Team of the Week for Matchweek 6: Aston Villa, Sunderland each place pair in best XI
Matchweek 6 of the Premier League didn't go according to plan for many teams, with some of the bigger names on the wrong side of the scoreline over the weekend.
Led by Liverpool's loss to Crystal Palace — the first dropped points of any kind by the Reds in the league this season — there was no shortage of stunning results in the latest round of games.
Of course, it's the players who drive those performances, and once again, some stood out above the rest.
So which stars made the biggest impact and made the DAZN News' team of the week? Rudi Schuller picks out the best XI of the weekend from Matchweek 6.
Fans in Canada can watch every single match from the Premier League season live on DAZN.

Goalkeeper: Robin Roefs (Sunderland)
The Black Cats kept a clean sheet against Nottingham Forest, and Roefs made six saves in the match.
Defender: Matheus Nunes (Manchester City)
The right-back didn't have to do much defending in City's 5-1 win against Burnley, but he had a goal and an assist as he was able to show his attacking abilities against the overmatched Clarets.
Defender: Omar Alderete (Sunderland)
Scored the game's lone goal and stood tall amid a tidal wave of Nottingham Forest attack.
Defender: Gabriel Magalhães (Arsenal)
@Arsenal
Was on the wrong end of Nick Woltemade's opener for Newcastle but made up for it with a stunning late winner for Arsenal, after making 17 defensive contributions.
Defender: Lucas Digne (Aston Villa)
Another full-back who got himself involved in goal production, Digne's first-half assist to Ollie Watkins helped kickstart Villa's comeback.
Midfielder: Sean Longstaff (Leeds United)
The former Newcastle man had an immense impact in Leeds' 2-2 draw with Bournemouth, assisting on their first goal and scoring a stunner for their second.
Midfielder: Ismaila Sarr (Crystal Palace)
Put in a Herculean shift against Liverpool's midfield, helping Palace become the first side to take points off the Reds this season.
Midfielder: John McGinn (Aston Villa)
McGinn's leadership was on display in Villa's victory over Fulham, with the captain scoring the match-winner.
Forward: Danny Welbeck (Brighton)
Welbeck led the charge for the Seagulls as they stormed to a 3-1 victory, with the 34-year-old scoring twice in the closing minutes of the match.
