All things change, and following a weekend of
surprise results among the teams at the top of the table, that change may be
closer than once thought!
Both Manchester clubs came unstuck against lower
sides in the division, once more proving the depth of quality that currently
resides throughout the Premier League.
United arguably had the biggest upset, with their
1-2 defeat to West Brom at Old Trafford a real eye-opener, and an equally real
kick in the teeth for beleaguered boss, David Moyes. The Scot has barely
readjusted the seat in the dugout since the departure of the stalwart Sir Alex
Ferguson, and the walls have already started to come crashing down around him.
After last week’s abysmal loss to City, this latest defeat will have only increased the enormous pressure on the former Everton man.

Manchester
United’s haul of seven points from their opening six matches represents
their worst start to a season since 1989-90!
City themselves suffered the ignominy of a shock
defeat away to Villa that same Saturday, as a likely win was snatched away from
them after some typically poor away day defending from the Citizens.
Spurs and Chelsea
shared the spoils at White Hart Lane, after a hotly contested 1-1 draw. Arsenal and
Liverpool lead the way
at the top, with both sides collecting valuable 3 points away from home.
