The premier league is back!!!! What an exhilarating round of fixtures filled with tension and jeopardy akin to that of a final this is why we love the beautiful game.

Man City are sleepwalking to a fourth title Arsenal - same solid Machine. Wolves can play Solid : Bournemouth will be alright Liverpool and Chelsea are nearly there but not quite. Palace, Brentford, Fulham, West Ham, Brighton (that's it nothing more nothing less) Burnley, Spurs - Kompany and Ange need to learn quick Scary hours : Villa's injuries to key players worry me. Sheffield are rivaling Derby's record of 10 points in the league. Luton. Everton needs to spawn a striker ASAP.

With their former player turned manager, Arteta, once of the blue half of Manchester; equipped with insight into enemy ranks. They can almost touch it, they can almost reach it and today might be the day they achieve it.
