Sports Mole's Championship Team of the Week

Sports Mole picks out the best 11 performers from across the latest batch of Championship action.

Following another weekend of Championship action, Sports Mole takes a look back at who stood out to earn a place in our latest Team of the Week.


Lee Camp (Rotherham United)
Rotherham were the only side in the second tier to register a clean sheet on Saturday afternoon, with Camp having to remain alert in the first half in particular to keep out Jon Toral's effort at St Andrew's.

Tendayi Darikwa (Burnley)
Another solid showing from the full-back, topped off by a goal after tapping in at the end of Scott Arfield's cross. No win for Burnley, though, who slip down the league table.
Danny Collins (Rotherham United)
Just a second clean sheet of the season for the Millers - and what a time to get it. Collins was key to the shutout, putting his body on the line on a couple of occasions and using his experience to see the job through.
Jake Bidwell (Brentford)
The Everton academy product looked particularly lively in his side's home defeat at the hands of Sheffield Wednesday, powering forward down the flank and also helping out in defence. Was unlucky not to score in the first half with fine looping header.

Tom Ince (Derby County)
Even when not at his free-flowing best, as was the case at Stadium MK, the Inter Milan-linked winger is still a real threat. A late assist and goal went a long way to highlighting the fact that, on his day, Ince is one of this division's most talented players.
Joey Barton (Burnley)
Certainly not the debut that the summer acquisition would have wanted, but there is no denying that the former free agent provided Burnley with a real boost when being introduced at 2-0 down.
Emyr Huws (Huddersfield Town)
The Terriers appear to have found a bit of momentum now, and their upturn in fortunes has coincided with the arrival of Wales international Huws. His latest effort may have taken a big deflection, but it is now four in five for him since joining.
Daniel Johnson (Preston North End)
A player who has gone under the radar so far this season, it is now five for the season for Johnson - the latest of which was a superb curled effort to give his side a lead they would later relinquish away at Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Atdhe Nuhiu (Sheffield Wednesday)
His goal may have come from the spot, but the Wednesday target-man proved to be a real thorn in Brentford's side all afternoon thanks to his ability to seemingly get his head on every cross that came into the box.
Jordan Rhodes (Blackburn Rovers)
Opposition manager Steve Bruce said it best in the build-up to this weekend's meeting when claiming that, once Blackburn have scored a goal, the name Jordan Rhodes will inevitably pop up alongside the scoreline. It is now five in five for the prolific forward.
Gary Madine (Bolton Wanderers)
Bobby Zamora's name was on everyone's lips pre-match, having been named in the Seagulls' starting lineup for the first time since May 2003. It was Madine's late strike which changed the complexion of this game, though, after he finally managed to break his scoring duck for Bolton - the ninth club of his career.


Numpty of the Week

Giuseppe Bellusci (Leeds United)

Having finally found some momentum after falling behind so early on, the last thing Leeds needed in their Sunday lunchtime defeat at the Riverside Stadium was their Italian defender to put the ball into his own net. It was a clinical finish, too, meeting George Friend's cross with a bullet header to dent United's hopes of claiming a point.

Goal of the Week

Ross McCormack (Fulham) vs. Queens Park Rangers

The third of Fulham's four strikes against West London rivals QPR came at the end of a superb flowing move, which McCormack rounded off to seal one of the finest team goals of the season so far.
