The Premier League returned last weekend with several standout performers amid a set of surprise results - none more so than James Maddison's performance in Spurs' 4-0 win over Manchester City.

The Englishman scored twice in quick succession on his way to earning a 9.0 Flashscore player rating, the highest of anyone across the weekend's action.

Maddison first opened the scoring with a superb first-time effort from close range before latching onto a Heung-min Son pass just minutes later and chipping a brilliant finish in for his second.

Spurs went on to score another two goals and record a shock 4-0 win over the current champions - with Maddison central to their success.
