Some really poor teams in the top division this season.

Maybe, but Arsenal vs Leeds isn't really evidence of it.

If you have one of the best five or six teams in the world and they spend another quarter of a billion pounds on good players, you probably expect them to comfortably beat a newly promoted side under pretty much all circumstances, no?

I haven't seen anything to suggest that Leeds, Burnley and Sunderland will be less competitive than Ipswich, Leicester and Southampton.

Levante beating Barcelona two-nil. On Disney+ if anyone has that.

Rashford subbed off at half-time. Clearly can't do it on a warm Saturday night in Valencia.

Seems quite rainy, to be fair. He won't be used to that.

No but I thought Leeds were dreadful last week even when beating Everton. Everton, West Ham & Brentford are rotten.

The top end of the table are in a league of their own. Nearly every other team is struggling to even make a few signings.

You are the sort of bloke who'd look at their 4 year olds finger painting and give it a 3/10 score though.

I thought the Wolves sending off was harsh. Looked like a dive to me.

Trafford on Kudus. Two red cards. Deliberate handball ball (unlike the Everton one last week) outside the area and chops his study into his stomach. And yet VAR tumbleweed.

It's a shame the man united  game is the 4.30 as I'd much rather watch both palace and Everton games. I'm gonna have to flick between the two

Good away point for Rangers at St. Mirren, after they were 1-0 down. They're now up to 7th in the table.

Only 4 sides have won a game in the Scottish top flight so far.
