S7M15: Football should become an indoor sport

I've done my turn sitting in freezing stadia being "entertained" until I have no sensation in any digits, and it's part and parcel of the game. This week though was new for me.

I mean, it clearly wasn't. Cold is like pain. I've obviously experienced that sensation before but I can't remember feeling that miserable in detail. And I wasn't even watching - this was playing so I should have been able to get warm from running around. I swear I didn't warm up until halfway through the next morning - hot showers & duvets be damned.

I raise this issue to show not how hard/soft I am dependent on your perspective for venturing out/moaning about it, but to point out that this is further evidence that the likes of John Terry - short sleeves and gloveless in all climates are not human.

So 2 matchdays on and what have we learnt?

Man City look good still. Man Utd look a better attacking unit with Pogba. Chelsea are quietly rebuilding form. Arsenal are not as awful as we suspect, but not as good as they can appear. Liverpool are as per usual. Spurs are struggling with a smaller squad than others, but that's no-one's fault but their own. Read the same comment as Arsenal. Burnley are having a stormer of a season so far, but if that chip on their fans & their manager's shoulder gets any bigger, they might shatter. Some new managerial blood has arrived - although it looks suspiciously like old managerial blood who we all hope fail miserably.

At Goodison, Unsworth signed off in style with a Wazza hat-trick, ably assisted by Joe Hart for at least 2 of the 3. Nice when an old team-mate helps you out like that. Moyes' career must be done now though surely....4 years have aged him significantly and frankly his methodology doesn't seem to get results anymore. Clement also seems to have hit a brick wall in Swansea - his card must also be marked. Gotta feel Mark Hughes ain't much longer for this league either...
