Poor defending by the Leicester defender at the far post though.

I was just thinking - Leicester might score yet ... and BOOM! Mahrez can't stop scoring right now!

Bournemouth could have a few scorelines like that this season if their start is anything to go by.

Although a different style and tactics, Swansea also came up and showed no fear and finished in midtable. I absolutely love it and it makes the Premier League so much more exciting.

You need to have good performances early on in the season to keep the belief up, but it can be a really productive way of staying in the league. I wish them the best of luck. I'm hoping they'll scalp some of the bigger teams, too. Definitely a team to tune in to this year.
 
Few fun facts for todays game:

*Jose Mourinho's last six Premier League defeats have come against a manager who has a surname starting in P (Pulis, Poyet, Pardew, Pochettino, Pulis, Pellegrini).
*Tony Pulis has won two Premier League games against Jose Mourinho - no manager has won three PL games against the Portuguese.
*Both Roberto Di Matteo and Andre Villas-Boas managed their last Premier League game as Chelsea boss against WBA at the Hawthorns before they were sacked.

*Manchester City have only won three of their previous 18 Premier League trips to Goodison Park (L10 D5).
*Of players to have made 25+ Premier League appearances, Sergio Aguero has the best minutes per goal ratio in the history of the competition (110.5 mins - 79 goals in 8729 mins).
 
Maureen's interview: like a spoilt kid who's been found out and knows it. Asked a simple question why he's brought in a certain player, Zouma, he says, 'I don't have to tell you'. What a massive twat.
 
If he hadn't recently signed a contract extension, I'd have been tempted to speculate that he was limbering up for his standard 3-year exit.
 
For all of Pulis' fame as this great organiser of a disciplined defence, his players certainly look a mess at times.
