Harry Redknapp has picked his best 11 performers from the weekend’s action.

The Premier League team of the weekend that has most impressed him.

Included in his top 11 are two stand out Newcastle United players.

Players who in Harry’s opinion contributed so much to the defeat of Nottingham Forest at St James’ Park.

Harry Redknapp explaining why he chose this Newcastle United star amongst his Premier League team of the week:

In goal, let’s go with Lammens at Man United. There was a lot of pressure on this lad, but he did well on his first start for the club. I thought it was a very encouraging debut for the young lad, he dealt with everything that came his way.

I’m going for Timber at right-back but truth be told, I could have picked any of the Arsenal lot. What a great defence this is, they just look so solid. I like this lad a lot, he’s so solid in one-v-one situations.

Van Hecke is Brighton’s best defender these days and rescued a point in that game at Wolves. This guy barely loses anything in the air – he’s so dominant and very composed...
