Branislav Ivanovic: Another Big Performance
Ivanovic registered an assist and a clean sheet during Chelsea's 2-0 win over Leicester on Saturday.
Analysis:
There was speculation earlier this summer that the acquisition of Felipe Luis from Atletico Madrid could put pressure on Ivanovic for his spot in the starting XI, but the Serbian has started remarkably well, registering one goal, one assist and one clean sheet in two matches. The clean sheet may be tough to come by next weekend against Everton, but a defender that's involved in the attack as much as Ivanovic cannot be ignored.
