It's a lovely start of the season for them given the teams they're playing. Their real test comes in November.

Yeah, early days, they've not been tested really. I'd like to see Rafa take some points off our rivals.

Brighton are a very decent team. A comfortable away win is a good win.

Everton are looking fucking solid as.

Manager of the month, just pipping Arteta for me.

Strictly speaking the Man City one was the only one on goal difference I think. 1989 was goals scored, as the goal difference was the same.

I think there were a few times in the 50s or 60s when the top two were level on points but it was goals average back then.

We would have been champions in 89 if it had been goal average

Brighton are a very decent team. A comfortable away win is a good win.

I would've expected them to get 7ish points from their opening 3 games. See how they do in the next couple of months.

I see Juve aren't missing Ronaldo.

Atmosphere at the Velodrome is deafening.

How many times do I have to tell you people, never underestimate the Rafa.
This is the man who made Traore and Biscan European champions.
Fund him and he'll eventually take you to the promised land.

Celtic the better side so far.

Edouard's just missed an absolute sitter.

Rangers badly struggling in midfield.

Kent bends an effort off his weaker foot but clips the post, great effort.

Breakthrough at IBROX!!!!

Helander heads 1 in from Barisic's corner 1-0 to the Gerrrrrrs.

Rangers on the ropes a bit here in the last 10 mins or so.

Celtic have had 2 big chances to equalise, but messed up by Faragushi.

Gonna laugh when they finish 5th then he goes back to Italy with his rep enhanced

Barnes with a recklessly out of control tackle on Dallas, sees yellow but that was a red for me.

Then again what do you expect from a Dyche side.

Son 1-0

Spurs top of the table.

Super coach Ange lost another game, I see

Got outsmarted on the touch line by Gary Mac.

Wonder if he'll come out with another moan about having being dealt a bad hand despite Celtic signing about 6-7 players.

who would have thunk it...

1. Spurs 9 points 3 wins from 3

20. Arsenal 0 points 3 losses from 3

Bamford 1-1

Stroke of fortune but it's good reactions by the big man.

 

[Woland]

Traore just did boss then. I know you lot hate him but whenever I watch him he's ace.

How did Trincao not score that FFS.

Wolves with 2 great chances already.

Fred really is useless lol.

 

[Markeh]

Great start

The only thing ace about him is his sprint speed.
