Alan Shearer has picked his team of the week.

The 11 players who most impressed him in the Premier League this past weekend.

The Magpies legend choosing three players amongst his 11 choices.

Immediately after the draw against Manchester City, Alan Shearer posted a ‘well done’ message to NUFC and picked out three players for special mention.

They were Martin Dubravka, Jetro Willems and Jonjo Shelvey.

He has included Dubravka and Shelvey in his Premier League team of the week but instead of Willems, he has West Ham’s Aaron Cresswell at left-back.

The third player to make his PL team of this past week is Federico Fernandez, who was outstanding at the heart of defence.

On Match of The Day on Saturday, Alan Shearer had this to say about Jonjo Shelvey:

“It was a magnificent hit and he (Shelvey) was superb today, as were a few Newcastle’s players. He needs to keep on putting those performances in because they worked ever so hard and it was a hard-earned point. What they deserved.”
