i love the Premier League and wanted to start a thread on it earlier, but I'm also really lazy and people were talking about Nazis.
these are just a few quick thoughts on the table as it stands now
1. Man Utd
two 4-0 wins, against two... not so good sides. still a strong start, and look legitimately good so far. Mourinho's second season... 0.0
2. West Brom
west brom in a UCL place? disappointing, i predicted the title. but seriously they were a strong outfit last season, and they're not dropping points. good on them
3. Watford
Besides having the greatest Italian player currently, since Totti retired, in Okaka, Watford has made a fairly solid start, and look threatening. Relegation fears not coming to fruition.
4. Liverpool
Coutinho on the way out it seems, and Van Dijk in purgatory. An opening draw barely remedied by a second round win against Crystal Palace by one goal... after Palace lost 3-0 to huddserfield. things to work on in the Liverpool camp, but creativity galore. and by galore, i mean Mane.
5. S'hampton
Most boring game ever against the swans, and then an ultimately dramatic win against West Ham. Too bad they're selling literally everyone to Liverpool next season, there's still so much talent in the squad
6. Huddersfield
bro. brooooooo. BROOOOOOOOOO. this was the instant match reaction by drunk Huddersfield fans last week. They're not in 20th, which is a success, and they look to have fight in them yet
7. Man City
for a purely dominant game against brighton, a 2-0 scoreline shows some frailty up top for City. selling Iheanacho when you have so many games with rotation?? but still, Guardiola's men have so much talent. they'll probably finish 7th :]
8.Tottenham
They didn't buy anyone, haven't improved on their team, and i think they'll finish second. that said, plenty of games to go, and Wembley as a home ground could prove harmful. Just ask West Ham
9. Leicester
Jamie Vardy looks good again, and Leicester are proving to us once again that no matter how well they play, they simply cannot beat Arsenal.
10. Everton
So much money paid for the new troops, and Europa league will wear on them, Gylfi Thor Sigurdsson, sexiest man in Iceland, signed though so that's a plus. and Rooney got a goal! I'm just surprised he's still able to jump he looks so old. and wide
11.Arsenal
Arsenal dug in deep and proved that they could grind out results against... Leicester... but... Stoke were too much for them. Hmm. #WengerOut
12. Burnley
One away win all of last season, already completed on the first day, but their excellent home form torn apart by... West Brom.
13. Stoke
Sell your 6'4" Austrian monster and buy a guy named Jese. but hey, it worked!
14. Swansea
Sigurdsson gone, and they've yet to score a goal. surprised? you REALLY shouldn't be
15. Chelsea
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
16. Newcastle
Jonjo Shelvey you bastard. if it weren't for you sending off, newly promoted Newcastle would have trounced Champions league side Tottenham!
17. B'mouth
Signing Defoe no longer prevents relegation as Sunderland showed us. Cherries be warned
18. Brighton
nice job getting back up. see you in 2040-something
19. Crystal Palace
nice job getting your ass beaten by Huddersfield and Liverpool. I mean i can kind of understand one of them... but LIVERPOOL? come on
20. West Ham
You can sign as many players as you want, but you can't sign back Upton Park.
