Hannah Hampton (GK) - Aston Villa: Two important saves against Everton preserved her team's clean sheet and provided the foundations for a win.
Jess Carter (RB) - Chelsea: Another impressive performance on the right of a flat back four. Helped keep Arsenal at bay.
Ashleigh Plumptre (CB) - Leicester: A goal and a clean sheet marked a big day for the defender in her team's biggest ever WSL win.
Alex Greenwood (CB) - Man City: In control in the Manchester derby. Excellent on the ball and always defensively strong.
Ashleigh Neville (LB) - Tottenham: Two goals in two weeks for the full-back as Spurs won again to rise back into the WSL top three.
2. Midfielders
Kim Little (CM) - Arsenal: Accurately sprayed the ball all over the pitch for the Gunners against Chelsea and did her share of defensive duty.
Jill Scott (CM) - Aston Villa: Proving to be irrepressible in the WSL following her January loan. An acrobatic assist was a standout moment.
Megan Connolly (CM) - Brighton: Saw loads of the ball for the Seagulls against a hitherto very impressive Reading and registered an assist.
3. Forwards

Alisha Lehmann (RF) - Aston Villa: Came away from her team's win with an assist to her name but also saw other chances.
Kayleigh Green (ST) - Brighton: Her two goals underpinned Brighton's big win to inflict Reading's first defeat since the early weeks of the season.
Natasha Flint (LF) - Leicester: Played in a central role for the Foxes but accommodated here in a wider role following a fine showing. Scored the Foxes' opener, played a role in the third and was generally a real nuisance.
