Norman Hubbard: Players of the season...so far

Everton: Phil Jagielka
When, without looking, Phil Jagielka slid a back pass into the path of Ashley Young for the Aston Villa winger to score, there was considerable surprise. Quietly and unostentatiously, Jagielka had established himself as Everton's definition of consistency. When Joseph Yobo and Joleon Lescott endured an early-season loss of form, Jagielka maintained his levels of performance. It is hard to question Fabio Capello's decisions, but Jagielka can consider himself unfortunate not to be in the squad that beat Germany.
The Rest
