Guaranteed 3 points for city and Liverpool again, taking them both to 9 points.

United have to beat Spurs.

With a defeat to Spurs could well find ourselves already 6 points behind City, Liverpool, Spurs and Chelsea and even after 3 games that is a lot of catching up to do

Would be quite something if they could take points off both of us in consecutive weeks. Don’t see either City or us dropping points today though tbf.
Yeah you'll be comfortable esp as you're at home.

Expect Liverpool to hit at least 3 and probably more . City I don't expect to batter wolves, but will be comfortable. Goals at Arsenal and Bournmouth too.

Sane starts this season as a substitute despite having a full preseason with Pep.. Hmmm..

I think unfortunately for him Mendy offers the same width as he does and he is not as good on the inside as Benardo and Sterling. Against a packed he won't make much difference but will be more effective when teams open up to the counter both inside and outside.

3-0 to city.

I wonder what the score would be if united were playing wolves. 2-1 to them I reckon

It's an interesting round. Us against Brighton is the only fixture I'd feel comfortable putting money on. Will be interesting to see what a team like wolves can come up with here.

Pretty boring gameweek, as Liverpool, City and Chelsea should find it easy. Newcastle could be a banana skin for Chelsea, but I don't think they will lose as they are just gathering steam under Sarri. Arsenal vs West Ham could be mildly interesting.

Against these mid tier teams away from home you kill the crowd and more often than not you have the game in the bag, to do that of course you have to be proactive and take the game to the opposition from the start.

Neville ‘theatrical fall from the Wolves player.’!!!
Kompany was practically taking his shirt off! Hope he brings up the City theatrics.
When are City gonna get punished for the amount of cynical fouls they make?

City just get away with so many fouls that should be yellows

Liverpool and City do exactly the same fecking thing. Constantly foul the opposition and stop breaks. It's infuriating.
