Better Late Than Never

Matchday 13 delivered pure Premier League chaos, red cards flying, late goals erupting, and giants wobbling. Brentford detonated Burnley with an insane triple-strike, Newcastle shredded Everton, and City barely escaped Leeds’ ambush. Arsenal vs. Chelsea burned hot, Liverpool and United surged, and the table tightened into a pressure cooker. The league is officially showing who is at the top vs the bottom.

Manchester City roared back to their ruthless best, dismantling Liverpool 3-0 as Jeremy Doku torched the left flank and Guardiola’s machine clicked into top gear. Arsenal’s title charge wobbled after a nightmare Raya blunder gifted Sunderland a draw, while Spurs mixed chaos with clarity, correcting early tactical confusion too late. Garnacho’s electric display ignited Chelsea’s attack, and Nuno’s reborn West Ham are suddenly snarling again. Dyche’s Forest look feral at home, Villa tore through Bournemouth’s weary midfield, and Brighton vs Palace bored but boosted both. Newcastle’s crisis deepens; Fulham remain hopeless on the road.

Matchday 9 brought fireworks and chaos. Arsenal look unstoppable, steamrolling the league like their olden days, while Aston Villa quietly emerge from the depths. Liverpool’s slump hit new lows with a 3-2 defeat to Brentford while Forest sink deeper despite Dyche’s arrival, United’s new attack finally clicks, and Bournemouth’s 19-year-old sensation Eli Kroupi is skyrocketing toward a £70 million-plus future!

BARK BARK, Dyche is back! Matchday 8 brought fireworks: City cruised, Liverpool crumbled at Anfield, and Palace vs Bournemouth was chaos in boots. At the bottom, Forest hit panic mode — enter Sean Dyche, back in the Prem to grit things up. Expect less flair, more fight, and a relegation dogfight brewing fast.

Arsenal seized the top spot with ruthless intent as Liverpool crumbled late at Chelsea. Haaland kept hunting, while Pep hit 250 wins like a boss. Man United woke up, Everton shocked Palace, and Bournemouth soared. Semenyo dazzled, legends stumbled, and the title race is officially on fire heading into matchday 8.

VAR VAR VAR... This week’s VAR drama lit up the Premier League. Arsenal fumed as their penalty at Newcastle was overturned after Nick Pope’s faint touch was spotted and on the flip side, Gabi's arm was a bit high! Brentford’s Nathan Collins dodged a red against United, sparking outrage. Meanwhile, Salah’s handball before Liverpool’s goal and Brighton’s denied penalty at Chelsea fueled heated debate.

The time has come! We talk about the first 3 weeks, who's hot/who's not, and our Table Prediction (55:09)! Liverpool stormed out with three straight wins, Chelsea and Arsenal stayed sharp, while Tottenham, Everton, and even newly promoted Sunderland impressed. Manchester City stumbled twice, raising doubts, and Aston Villa looked toothless with no goals. Early days, but Liverpool already smell blood, title race drama is brewing hot.
