Shearer: Mendy was the difference against Brentford

Ben Chilwell may have scored the winning goal but Edouard Mendy was the decisive figure who kept Chelsea at the top of the Premier League over the weekend, according to Alan Shearer.

With the Blues leading 1-0 at Brentford on Saturday, the hosts laid siege to Mendy's goal in search of an equaliser, registering seven shots on target in total compared to Chelsea's one. Yet they were denied time and again by the phenomenal Senegal international.

Mendy's performance has earned him the No 1 spot in the Team of the Week chosen by Premier League all-time top scorer and Hall of Fame inductee Shearer.
