It is no surprise to see runaway leaders Manchester City dominating our team of the season – we have selected six City stars in our starting XI, with another on the bench.

And Blues boss Pep Guardiola has to be the manager of the season to date, despite a number of candidates, with vastly inferior budgets, including Burnley’s own Sean Dyche.

Dyche has guided the Clarets to seventh in the table, despite going 10 league games without a win, and, indeed, steered his side briefly into the Champions League places in December.

Two of his players earn a mention in our selection, with Ben Mee – who has stood in for Tom Heaton as captain since September – making the side as one of the best performing centre backs in the league.

And there wasn’t much between Mee and defensive partner James Tarkowski, who has also played a big part in helping make Burnley the fourth-best defensive unit in the Premier League so far this season.

Check out above our pick of the Premier League so far.
