November Team of the Month

GK: BART VERBURGGEN (BRIGHTON) - Verbruggen kept 3 clean sheets during November and conceded just one goal as Brighton ended the month in the European spots. He made some big and crucial saves throughout the month including his penalty save against Brentford to deny Igor Thiago.

RB: NICOLO SAVONA (NOTTINGHAM FOREST) - Savona scored 2 goals during November and also put in some solid performances defensively. His contributions at both ends were key to Forest getting some points on the board and lifting them out of the relegation zone.

CB: JEAN PAUL VAN HECKE (BRIGHTON) - Van Hecke was solid right throughout November as Brighton kept 3 clean sheets across the entire month. He made many crucial interventions when his team needed him to and he also won his aerial duels due to his tall height.

CB: TREVOH CHALOBAH (CHELSEA) - Chalobah put in solid performances right throughout November as Chelsea kept clean sheets in all but one of their games throughout the month. His key internvetions were key to Chelsea picking up the results they got and he rounded off the month with a goal against Arsenal.

LB: NICO O'REILLY (MAN CITY) - O'Reilly was excellent in both departments during November by putting in a good shift defensively and making key contributions at the other end in registering a goal and an assist each. He made his England debut during the month as well and if he can keep up the form he's in, he has a very good chance of being England's starting left back at the World Cup.

CDM: DECLAN RICE (ARSENAL) - Rice covered every blade of grass during November as he made key contributions at both ends of the pitch. He made many key interventions defensively and registered a goal and assist each with both being crucial in Arsenal keeping up their title bid.

CM: BRUNO FERNANDES (MAN UNITED) - Fernandes registered 4 assists during November which was more than any other player. All his assists were crucial in United getting the results they got and he's beginning to adjust to his new deeper role in the team.

CM: MORGAN GIBBS-WHITE (NOTTINGHAM FOREST) - Gibbs-White scored 3 goals during November and they all came in games where Forest got results from. He was dropped from the England squad during November and he reacted to it strongly by scoring in both games following the omission against Leeds and Liverpool. If he can carry on performing for Forest, he will be right in the thick of the race for the no.10 spot in the England team for the World Cup.

RW: RAYAN CHERKI (MAN CITY) - Cherki registered 3 assists during November as he began to find his feet following an injury disrupted start to life at Man City. If he can stay fit and keep up the frm he showed in November, he could be an important player for City this season.

LW: HARVEY BARNES (NEWCASTLE) - Barnes scored 3 goals during November including a brace in the Magpies' win over Man City. There has been talk of him potentially changing his allegiance from England to Scotland recently and especially with Scotland having qualified for the World Cup. But with the form he's showed for Newcastle this season, I wouldn't be surprised if he forced his way back into the England squad and put himself in contention to make the World Cup squad.

ST: IGOR THIAGO (BRENTFORD) - Thiago scored more goals than any other player during November with 5 as he began to step up and become Brentford's new talisman. He's felt like a new signing after missing the entirety of last season out injured and he's already second in the goal charts behind Erling Haaland with 11 goals.
