S9M6: Indian Sömmer

Ah, delightful. Domestic bliss returns after the international sojourns, and brings with it new flushings of warm weather. Good feelings abound, until kick off. Then, immediately, all those lovely endorphins are shoved out by the stomach churning worry. Well, at least round my gaff.

Obviously not if you're a Liverpool fan. Comfortable win expected and delivered. Same if you're a Man City fan. Ah...

That was slightly unexpected. To be honest, more disappointed in Delia not giving it large to Pep at the final whistle. Brighton also suffered disappointment by conceding a last minute equaliser at home to Burnley. Manchester United and Southampton both showed off their devastating attacking prowess with single goal wins - Man United yet again enjoying a penalty. It is quite remarkable how a team which attacks in such a stilted fashion manages to enjoy the rewards of the same trick over and over. Ironically, Vardy made a bit of a habit of that too. Spurs and Chelsea had big confidence boosting wins against complacently mid-table sides, before 2 other complacent mid-table sides suffered embarassing results on the Sunday. Let's gloss over that, for the sake of the Everton fans amongst us.

Finally, the weekend petered out with the mid-90s Claret & Blue derby ending in a no-score draw. Yawn.

Let's get statty:

But first, a word. You weirdos. We're into season 9 and you should all know the drill by now. I really shouldn't have to tell you that you need to PUT YOUR NAMES ON YOUR PREDICTIONS

4 of you. Honestly. I should deduct 10 points from you all, but instead, I've shown my mercy and worked out who 3 of you were. There is still 1 blank unclaimed score - if you believe it is yours (ie you played and aren't on the graph below) - let me know and I'll add it to the database. After sending you a gif of my disapproval
