On another note, Tottenham's return of 4 points from 9 is somewhat surprising seeing how good they have been the past 2 seasons! Wembley hoodoo? Who knows...

I dont like the bigger stadiums, theres a fine line that has to be well balanced in order to get great atmosphere and for players to adapt to the bigger surroundings. West Ham are suffering the same problem, its no coincidence that Spurs are showing signs of struggling with it as well. White Hart Lane and Upton Park were much more intimidating for the opposition.

Oh my days, how have we managed to pull off that Krychowiak signing?
He was immense at Sevilla.

Meanwhile, at the Emirates... Hahaha! Looks like they may just hold onto Sanchez by the skin of their teeth. Lemar has apparently turned them down, which means move for Sanchez to Man City. We'll see what's gone down in the morning, no doubt, anyway!

Liverpool have done well with the Ox signing, I think. He always seemed on the cusp of becoming a very good player and this may just be the move that sees that happen. Still very young, too.

Llorente to Spurs will also be a great signing if it goes through tonight. An experienced goal scorer to back up Kane. Chelsea will be disappointed to have lost out there.

Ox has no end product. 9 goals in what was it? 150 games? Not that great for a winger. Getting £40m for him, on the last year of his contract is unreal business by Arsenal.

Yeah, I agree he hasn't performed or developed as expected in the past few seasons but there is talent there and I think he'll improve at Liverpool. A lot depends on where and how much he plays, though. A good price as his contract is nearly up, but I'd love to see how that fee looks in 5 years time. Also, £40m or the £35m that's being quoted seems to be a standard fee now, Danny Drinkwater is valued at that at present. Either way, Arsenal should be bringing in players and creating a stronger squad at this time, everyone is looking to jump ship by the looks of it.

You could also argue that by letting a decent young England player run down his contract to the final year like this, isn't such good business. Just my 2 cents, of course!

Christ alive, clearest red all season. Hope Ederson can recover without any lasting damage.

First Super Sunday of the season. Chelsea - Arsenal is either gonna end up being a close affair where one team is just unlucky, or either one is demolished. Probably Arsenal. Utd - Everton is probably gonna be a cake walk for Utd. Everton are looking shocking despite their big money signings.

Also I assume the members here going on and on about how it was a certainty United would win the title are having second thoughts now?

Cannot believe that Moyes has got another Premier League job, praying that he takes West Ham down so it’ll be the final nail in the coffin for him as a manager. An absolute fraud.

Also I assume the members here going on and on about how it was a certainty United would win the title are having second thoughts now? Sorry haha. Was surprised to read WBA are one of teams in the Football League that’s achieved lowest points in 2017 (Atleast you ain’t 92nd like some other sh*t team...).

Pulis probably should have just gone after the Huddersfield game, seems like he's taking us backwards now. Chelsea on the weekend could be the end for him. And yeah Moyes is the manager with nine lives, incredibly lucky to get another PL job without working his way back up first. If he fails at West Ham then he must be done at the top level.

Nketiah is in Arsenal's squad for tomorrow. Spurs won't know what hit them. Nketiah > Kane. No sarcasm.
