    Mine is Everton, as the regular members know.
    I am feeling more confident about the new season now because we have just signed Amadou Onana from Lille and Conor Coady from Wolves (loan) joining other new buys James Tarkowski, Dwight McNeil and Ruben Vinagre. Also, a rumour of Idrissa Gana Gueye rejoining from PSG.
    Happy days. :D

    Seems like a down-to-earth, likeable Belgian young man and is 1.95 m (6 ft 5 in) tall :)

    Spurs fan here.

    Glad we got off to a good start. Things are slowly beginning to move in the right direction and finally Daniel Levy is backing the manager with the purchases he wants.

    I'm quite optimistic about this season. Yes there will be a few bumps on the road ahead. (As long as we beat Woolwich)

    Yes David52, Good window for you and perhaps also Destiny Udogie and Nicolo Zaniolo will arrive.

    I'm not a big fan of bringing in too many players at once. Yes we do need cover for certain positions, but it's one thing playing in Italy and another, playing in the premier league.

    The big two teams again. Chelsea and Spurs maybe Arsenal fighting for 3rd and 4th spot.

    Give City the title now!

    Not sure Liverpool will do so well this season, I think Spurs and then Chelsea to push on, Leicester to struggle Rodger’s first manager to go.
    Man.Utd similar to last year in table ranking.

    Everton finally have back-to-back wins and seem more confident after last season's mess.

    Other teams:

    Almiron (Newcastle) and Gallagher (Chelsea) goals were special yesterday.

    Arsenal looking good and Wolves looking bad.

    Leicester must beat Notts Forest on Monday

    Wolves are dire mate, we have struggled to score for a few seasons now but this season is by far the worst, so far we have scored 3 goals in 8 games from 2 miss hit shots scored by Podence and a goal from Neves from outside the box thats it, we signed a new striker that lasted 40 minutes in his first game now out for the season knee ligaments, we are now relying on a 34 year old free transfer signing to get us out of the brown stuff, all this after spending £100 million plus in the close season. Today we sacked the manager who didnt seem to have any idea how to stop the slide his recent record stretching back to last season was played 15 won 1.

    There must be something in the water.................

    They have to be real careful, mate.. Any more wins and the may develop nose bleeds.. They aren't used to that kind of stress...

    So many teams go on the manager merry-go-round until someone finds a formula.
    Hang in there, @Heathen - you're still in the PL - there are so many teams who have had it worse.
    Oldham are now in the National League.
    It takes a while to win things sometimes.

    The supporters have more stress than the players.
    Players move on, supporters are a loyal bunch who feel the pain of defeat far more.

    Yup and after yesterday's double hattrick game the quadruple too - Haaland-DeBruyne-Foden - only injuries can stop them this year - maybe the world cup will throw a spanner in the works...

    United players looked scared of him yesterday! Foden played well which is good for England.

    Arsenal v Liverpool and Everton v Man Utd this Sunday.
    The toffees are hopeful our recent promising run can continue and we can leap frog both :eek: ;)
