Fulham with a 2-2 draw at the Cottage against Liverpool in their first game back. Not mad about those results.
Watching that game play out it was actually kind of disappointing that Fulham didn’t take the 3 points. Of course, if you’d have offered me a draw up front I’d take it in a heartbeat.
Week 2 - Match of the Week - Spurs at Chelsea
In the last five matches, Chelsea has outscored Spurs 10-2 while carding four wins and one draw. The Blues got lucky to beat Everton in Week 1 and are still unsettled, so I predict Spurs, 2-1.

Besides me, who spends an hour every day reading transfer rumors about your favorite team? Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs and Newcastle are splashing the cash, while City and Liverpool fine tune with fewer but more expensive pieces. Barca and ManU losing their luster! Anybody care to make late transfer window predictions?
I predict Spurs pick up versatile creative midfielder Lucas Paqueta and left footed CB Pau Torres in the final week, after offloading Ndombele, LoCelso and Winks - Reguillon stays and works his way back into good graces!

Arsenal win 4-2, Nottingham Forest get their first Premier League win in 23 years and the Spurs net a 95th minute goal to leave Chelsea with a heated draw.
Really fun weekend.
Really fun weekend.
And Man Utd got ***** slapped by Brentford in 30 minutes, that was fun too.
I tuned in for the second half of Chelsea-Tottenham. That was an incredible match to watch. If someone tells you that soccer is boring I'd challenge them to watch that.
It also does a great job of showing why ties are not created equal (and why I think ties can still be really entertaining). Because one team definitely came out of that game happier than the other.
Big match on right now between first place Arsenal and second place Man City. Anyone else watching?
Arsenal blackboard before the match:
1) Apply midfield pressure
2) Attack Silva with Saka
3) Make soft passes between the back line and Ramsdale all day long

Classic Arsenal, lost out to Chelski on Murdyk and settled for an old terd during the window. Gotta reinforce when you’re at the top of the table.
Home loss against bottom of the table Southampton. You would think they have to be considering sacking Potter.
You might as well wait till the end of the season and just ride out this mod table mediocrity then sack and then start fresh and new
