Here is a look at the EPL Team of the Week for Match Day 4 from Troy Deeney at the BBC and Alan Shearer from the Premier League. The week saw only two home teams win- Man City (2-1 over Brentford) and Aston Villa (3-2 over Everton). Tottenham lost the North London derby to Arsenal, LFC were shocked by Forest in front of a record home crowd, while Jadon Sancho assisted on debut as Chelsea edged Bournemouth away.
