SEASON REVIEW SO FAR


So six games into the season and already we have had controversy, brilliance, drama and a lot of surprises. First was Man Utd losing to new boys Burnely, then there was Arsenal scoring six past Everton, and then recently was the news of Chelsea being banned from signing new players till 2011.

So without a doubt this is turning out to be a very fascinating season. Rich boys Man City have also started well despite losing to Man Utd last weekend though a lot of City fans and Utd haters will tell you that the game was well over before Owen scored the winner.

As for Arsenal, it really still is a case of same story different day, they play some of the most beautiful football you will ever see but when it comes to important games they seem to fizzle out, you just need to look at the Man City and Utd games.

As for title contenders Utd and Chelsae look like the teams that will be fighting for top honours come May. Chelsea haven't lost a game as yet, and the manner in which they have outplayed most of the teams they have beaten is really impressive. They look very strong and hungry under CA.

As for Utd, well you write off Utd at your own peril, for almost two decades they have been the team to beat. And even though they have lost Ronaldo and Tevez they still look really good. For most past of last weekend's match against Man City, they looked so dominant, and if it wasn't for some impressive goalkeeping from Shay Given, that score line could have been embarrassing for the Citizens.

Liverpool seem to have gotten back into gear after an indifferent start which saw them lose twice to Villa and Spurs. Thier biggest concern right now should be the number of goals they have conceeded. Their defence has looked very suspect so far, a lot has been said about Glen Johnson and his attcking, but first and foremost the guy is a defender he should focus on that first. To concede nine goals in the opening six games against that type of opposition should really be concerning Rafa.

So six games in 32 to go who will be lifting that title come May?
