The fourth round of Premier League fixtures has now passed, with several standout individual performances as clubs continue to attempt to build some early-season momentum.

Brighton enjoyed a 5-0 triumph away at Coventry on Sunday afternoon, with two of their players earning 9.0 Flashscore ratings - the two highest scores of anyone in the Premier League over the weekend.

Playmaker Pascal Gross and goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen both picked up the highest scores, but it's the German midfielder we've opted to give our Player of the Week award to.

Gross completely dominated the game for the Seagulls, scoring once and registering two assists as his side put Coventry to the sword.

His influence stretched beyond goals and assists, though, with the German also creating one big chance, making six key passes, and filling in defensively with four duels won, two tackles, two recoveries and two clearances.
