The FA Cup semifinal fixtures caused Premier League gameweek 34 to be spread across seven days—more than enough time for a full serving of drama and surprises.
The week began with Liam Rosenior's exit from Chelsea, followed by Arsenal and Manchester City swapping positions at the top of the title race, while late twists in the relegation battle painted an increasingly grim picture for Tottenham Hotspur.
Here are the top 10 standout players from a chaotic week, as rated by FotMob's player ratings system.
10. Igor Jesus (Nottingham Forest)
Rating: 8.4
Nottingham Forest's stunning 5–0 demolition of Sunderland was the most surprising result of the week. Vítor Pereira's men put four goals past their opponents in the opening half, with Brazilian forward Igor Jesus netting the fourth.
Jesus registered just 19 touches during his 67 minutes on the field—the lowest among Forest's starting lineup—yet still contributed a goal, an assist, and a deflected effort that resulted in an own goal.
9. Joachim Andersen (Fulham)
Rating: 8.4
Fulham's European ambitions got a significant lift with a narrow 1–0 victory against Aston Villa. The Cottagers held just 39% of the ball at home, leaning heavily on commanding defensive displays from the likes of Joachim Andersen.
Andersen topped the charts for tackles (four), interceptions (four), and clearances (seven), putting in a tireless shift to shut out the top-four contenders.
8. Ferdi Kadıoğlu (Brighton)
Rating: 8.5
Brighton & Hove Albion supporters had every reason to celebrate as their side dismantled Chelsea in the opening fixture of the round, inadvertently sealing Liam Rosenior's fate with a commanding 3–0 win.
The Seagulls boasted several impressive performers, with opening scorer Ferdi Kadıoğlu leading the charge. The left back remarkably finished the match as the team's top performer for both shots on target (three) and interceptions (three), highlighting his value as a complete two-way player.
7. Rayan Cherki (Man City)
Rating: 8.5
Manchester City left their 1–0 victory over Burnley frustrated at not converting more opportunities. That wastefulness certainly wasn't down to any lack of effort from Rayan Cherki.
No player created more than the eight chances Cherki served up for his teammates in yet another impressive display that illustrated precisely why Pep Guardiola is prepared to look past his weaknesses.
6. Bernardo Silva (Man City)
Rating: 8.6
Topping the charts for Man City was Bernardo Silva, the only player who came anywhere near Cherki's chance creation tally (seven).
The Portuguese midfielder has reinvented himself as a defensive midfield option in recent weeks, blending his exceptional passing vision with a team-leading 12 defensive contributions. His exit this summer will leave a far bigger void at City than many people appreciate.
5. Morgan Gibbs-White (Nottingham Forest)
Rating: 8.6
Week after week, Nottingham Forest midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White continues to deliver. He may not have replicated his hat-trick from the previous round, but the Englishman was once again the standout performer for his club.
Gibbs-White had one shot. He scored. Gibbs-White created one chance. He registered an assist. A clinical and efficient display that has all but secured his side's Premier League status for another season.
4. Martin Dúbravka (Burnley)
Rating: 8.7
As noted earlier, Man City were relentless in their pursuit of goals against Burnley. With goal difference potentially playing a decisive role in the title race, Guardiola's side came at Martin Dúbravka's goal with 28 attempts.
Despite conceding once, Dúbravka finished with eight saves to his credit, denying a total expected goals figure of 2.16. That performance may well be remembered in the weeks ahead if such fine margins ultimately determine the title winner.
3. Alexis Mac Allister (Liverpool)
Rating: 8.7
Alexis Mac Allister has faced considerable scrutiny over his form this season, joining a number of Liverpool players who have struggled to meet expectations. He served as a timely reminder of his quality in Saturday's 3–1 triumph over Crystal Palace.
After benefiting from a fortunate deflection to set up Alexander Isak's opener, Mac Allister added a second assist with a sublime touch that allowed Florian Wirtz to wrap up the scoring deep into stoppage time.
2. Jarrod Bowen (West Ham)
Rating: 8.7
West Ham United are in a critical moment. Every point is precious in the fight to avoid the drop, and the Hammers need their key players to rise to the occasion. Jarrod Bowen answered that call emphatically on Sunday.
West Ham's talisman has been in sensational form throughout 2026, notching his eighth and ninth assists in his last 12 appearances to steer his side to a vital 2–1 win over Everton. It's a record-setting tempo that very few players have ever been able to sustain.
1. Casemiro (Man Utd)
Rating: 8.8
Manchester United supporters are pleading for Casemiro to commit to "one more year," and it's easy to see why.
Casemiro broke the deadlock in his side's 2–1 victory over Brentford on Monday, but that was merely the beginning of another outstanding display that featured a remarkable 25 defensive contributions—including 10 tackles, more than the entire Brentford squad combined.
