S9M8:

3rd month of the season starts and it's still very bunched. Maybe as expected, given the gulf in class between the mini-leagues but it's still quite an interesting start with nearly a quarter of the season now played.

Liverpool maintained their 5 point lead at the top with a nervy win over Sheffield United - followed by a nervy win this week in the Champions League. They keep winning but look less fluent and more vulnerable than at the start of the season. Man City also won to keep the pressure on and maintain the gap from the chasing pack, fronted by Leicester who are rolling back the years (well, all 4 of them) with some thrilling football so far this term. They thumped Newcastle on the Sunday. Next in line are Arsenal who got a point at Old Trafford in a low quality game that nobody was happy with - either performance or outcome. Joga Boninto.

Also in the score draw club for the week are Villa & Burnley & Bournemouth & West Ham. All the claret & blue. And Bournemouth, who's regional cocktail is red wine and WKD. I think that what Harry Redknapp has on a Saturday night out in Sandbanks. Comfortable home wins were the other results for Chelsea, Spurs Crystal Palace & Watford,
