Eze joins Man Utd, Chelsea, Arsenal stars in BBC's EPL Team of the Week 

Crystal Palace winger Eberechi Eze cracked the BBC Premier League Team of the Week following his instrumental display against Bournemouth. 

The former Super Eagles invitee netted his third goal of the season as Crystal Palace registered a 2-0 road win over the Cherries.

Eze smashed home Palace's second goal in the 36th minute after an excellent delivery from another Nigeria Football Federation target Michael Olise. 

Seven different clubs are represented on the BBC Team of the Week selected by former Tottenham Hotspur forward Garth Crooks, namely Manchester United, Chelsea, Brentford, Arsenal, Crystal Palace, Aston Villa and Everton. 

In a 3-4-3 formation, David de Gea is in goal and the three-man defence is made up of Ethan Pinnock (Brentford), Thiago Silva (Chelsea) and Luke Shaw (Manchester United).

The midfielders are Eze, Aston Villa duo Emiliano Buendia and Douglas Luiz, and Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard, while Bukayo Saka, Demarai Gray and Ivan Toney were the standout forwards. 

Highlighting the impressive performance of Eze against Bournemouth, Crooks wrote : "The Eagles looked like a different proposition against Bournemouth and got the points their performance deserved.

"The star of the show was Eberechi Eze, whose superbly taken goal put the game beyond the Cherries. If Eze can remain fit and start converting his considerable abilities into goals this kid will be a top-four player."

Eze and his Palace teammates welcome Tottenham Hotspur to Selhurst Park on Wednesday, 4th January.
