10. Matteo Guendouzi (Arsenal) – Signed for 7million from LorientCapable of dictating play with his excellent passing range, the 19-year-old midfielder has settled quickly in north London.Impressive showings in defeats against Manchester City and Chelsea showed Guendouzi could hold his own in the Premier League, with Gunners fans voting him their Player of the Month for August.

David Brooks (AFC Bournemouth) – Signed for 11.5million from Sheffield UnitedDespite his slight build and youthful appearance, the 20-year-old has had no problem adapting to the physicality of top flight football.The midfielder has started 10 of Bournemouth’s 11 league matches this season, scoring goals against Watford and Fulham.
11David Brooks has been excellent for AFC Bournemouth8. Xherdan Shaqiri (Liverpool) – Signed for 13.5million from Stoke CityHardly new to the Premier League, the former Stoke City star has raised his performance levels since making the summer switch to Anfield.The Switzerland international has either scored or assisted in five of last Liverpool’s last six matches, leading many supporters urging Jurgen Klopp to keep him in the starting XI.

James Maddison (Leicester City) – Signed for 7million from LorientTo many it would appear Maddison has played in the Premier League for his entire career given the way he has thrived since arriving from Norwich City.Three goals and two assists for the Foxes earned the 21-year-old a first call-up to the England squad for their UEFA Nations League matches last month.

Kepa Arrizabalaga (Chelsea) – Signed for 71.6million from Athletic BilbaoMoving to a massive club, replacing a goalkeeper of Thibaut Courtois’ stature and in the process becoming the most expensive player ever in that position, few would blame Kepa if he felt any pressure. However, the Chelsea No.1 has grown in confidence with each match and has gone largely unnoticed so far – always a positive sign for any keeper.
11Kepa Arrizabalaga has been unfazed by his world-record switch to Chelsea5. Jorginho (Chelsea) – Signed for 50million from NapoliFollowing Maurizio Sarri over from Napoli, the Italy international has been crucial to the style of play the new Chelsea boss is trying to implement.While his trademark one-touch football and control was lacking against Everton, Jorginho has still completed 1186 passes – more than any other player in the Premier League.

Lucas Torreira (Arsenal) – Signed for 26.4million from SampdoriaAfter beginning the season on the bench, Torreira is now one of the first names on Unai Emery’s team-sheet.Standing only 5’6, the 22-year-old is excellent at snuffing out danger and providing his defence with cover, but he is also a calm distributor of the ball offering the Arsenal midfield a new dimension they have lacked since the days of Gilberto Silva.

Rui Patricio (Wolverhampton Wanderers) – Signed for 16million from Sporting LisbonFor any newly-promoted club a good start is crucial and Wolves have had just that in no small part to their European Championship winning goalkeeper.Signed from Sporting Lisbon, Patricio has a save percentage of 76%, putting in notable performances as his side drew with both Manchester City and Manchester United.

Joao Moutinho (Wolverhampton Wanderers) – Signed for 5million from MonacoAnother player from Molineux and Portugal, Moutinho has added class and guile to the Wolves midfield.Since arriving from Monaco, he has created more chances (10) for his teammates than any other player and scored a memorable equaliser at Old Trafford.
