Dean Smith could be under a bit of pressure if they lose tonight, a £100million plus spending spree not bearing fruit and more sexier managers waiting in the wings. Apparently Wesley their £20million striker from Belgium is a bit of a barn door Billy, so pressure on him too

Reckon Arsenal will surprise 'Pool. Based on absolutely nothing.

I've got that feeling too, and also no idea why.

Draw..........then we can be top of the league tomorrow night (alternatively wouldn't mind being behind way Man U on goal difference if they put half a dozen past Palace)

Cool, didn't realise there was a Friday night game today - is there one every week now or just sometimes?

Yeah, weird isn't it?

Now and then

Burnley look a good bet to shock a Wolves side who are playing their third match inside a week.

Love a Friday night Prem game to start the weekend - pretty sure last season they did a few early on, then didn't really bother. Not sure why it stopped.

Agree, love them. I guess because traditionally it's a Championship on a Friday night, so we only get the odd PL match

 

[Official Old Man]

I've got my realistic hat on today. We need the big teams to keep beating those at the bottom because at some stage this season there's a good chance that's where we'll be, nearer the bottom than the top.
Wins for Everton, Chelsea, Man Utd, Leicester, Man City and Spurs all be it by the odd goal.

 

[LamieRobertson]

‘Palace Nil’ should keep up their recent record

I'm all aboard the Arsenal away win bus as well. Nailed on Albion win - I don't understand why people are talking up Saints to the extent they are. I've also got a sneaky feeling that Burnley will come away with something from Molyneux.

Easy money

Saints gave Liverpool a run for their money. I'm a bit wary of them tbh.

Yeah I heard people saying that, but guess I didn't see much actual evidence of it, beyond Liverpool simply turning off towards the end. Their goal was ridiculous. Caveats are that I was very drunk when I watched it and that I am still firmly in my pre-season Potterball glass-half-full bubble. And I really rate Adams, Hojbjerg and JWP. I just reckon they're gonna be outclassed by our system.

Me too. I think we will draw.

Not yet familiar with Adams, but Hojbjerg's mint, and JWP pretty good. Redmond's their one though. Ings I rate too, and Valery's getting good write-ups.
Should be a fascinating game.

 

[Easy 10]

Hopefully Everton will let some more air out of the Villa balloon tonight, it'd be fun to see their underwhelming start continue. Its got 1-1 written all over it though, from where I'm sitting.

Fancy Everton to breeze past Villa
Narrow victory for us against the Saints
Liverpool to bt Arsenal
And Man Utd to stuff Palace
