It was a terrible display from start to finish for us. I'm sure Tottenham will get overly excited after this win but they will just be their usual inconsistent selves, I wouldn't be surprised if they lose next week to Brighton.

I don't think it will change who wins the league, City will likely drop more points than usual but they will still win the league in the end. Their annual winning streak is waiting for them towards the end of the season.

2024 is probably not the most boring year in UK chart history but really the chart has been dead for years. It will never come close to the buzz of the pre-streaming days, it's just at the point now where you either take it for what it is now or you just dip out which is what I did.

Damn! Arsenal were so close to finally winning at Etihad Stadium. City completely dominated the 2nd half so the goal was deserved but it will be a case of what might have been for Arsenal.

Champions League football on a Thursday will certainly take some getting used to! The competition will be easier to get absorbed into now that highlights have returned to terrestrial TV. Last season was probably the least I've watched of the Champions League since I started watching football. Only thing missing is live matches returning to terrestrial TV.

We had this kind of start in the 2022/23 season and everyone said the same things, we improved and got 3rd place and won a cup. Only 3 matches have been played so far and to be truthful what really was the expectation for this season? especially after how bad last season was. To go for the league title was never going to be a realistic aim for this season. Guarantee if we were to go on a winning streak after the international break the conversations will do a 180.
