Considering his relatively young age for a centre-back and £55m price tag, Jacquet has started well at Anfield.
Liverpool are unbeaten so far this season, and have kept three successive clean sheets with Jacquet in the side.
4) Ezri Konsa (Arsenal – £51m)

With William Saliba injured for a significant period of time and Jurrien Timber's minutes needing to be managed, the Gunners needed defensive cover, preferably someone who could cover at centre-back and right-back.
Konsa is Premier League proven and has fit in like a glove, coming off the bench to preserve a win and clean sheet against former club Villa, while also starting in wins against Chelsea and Sunderland, keeping another clean sheet in the latter.
3) Mamadou Sangare (Brentford – £41m)
Brentford's Mamadou Sangare – Photo by PA Images / Icon Sport£41m to Lens was a significant outlay from Brentford for Mamadou Sangare, but he has shown to be one of the signings of the season so far.
The midfielder particularly impressed on his Premier League debut, as the Bees beat Tottenham 3-0 at the Gtech Community Stadium.
Sangare even came up with an assist in that game, and has ranked highly among players in the league for key metrics like high-intensity pressures and tackles.
2) Chema Andres (Brighton & Hove Albion – £19m)
Brighton's Chema Andres – Photo by Xinhua / Icon SportChema Andres is already looking like another gem signed by Brighton & Hove Albion.
Joining from Stuttgart for £19m, the 21-year-old has already broken into the starting XI.
He capped off a brilliant performance against champions Arsenal with a goal in Brighton's 3-0 win at the Amex Stadium, and also got an assist in the Seagulls' 5-0 thrashing of Coventry City.
1) Ainsley Maitland-Niles (Everton – £3m)

Proven in the Premier League with Arsenal, he scored a screamer on his Toffees debut against Manchester United, and helped his team keep successive clean sheets in their next two games.
Everton have needed to sign a right-back for a long time, and Maitland-Niles looks to have made that position his own already.
