ManCity is still at the top of the league

he league is back (after some European football) and Manchester City’s buying spree is drawing attention.

Arsenal will go top tonight, then the derby (tomorrow) will be a big test for Enzo and Team.

There’s a good chance ManCity won’t win anything this year, but it’s off to a good start.

Strong start

think the derby this coming Sunday (2 days from now) will be hard for Manchester City. United is doing OK since that awful first match in Hull and despite last night’s rival (quite new in European football) being generally weak, United handled it very well. Yesterday we walked in Town for a couple of hours and saw salespeople of match scarfs in the streets.

Manchester United used to be almost synonymous with Manchester. Not anymore.

EnzoFC seems to be getting better over time

t is turning out to be a good winning streak for Enzo, with a fourth win in a row and this time a different tournament and difficult away game against a very potent rival. Just weeks ago, after the Community Shield defeat, it looked like there was going to be another loss, this time at home (against Bournemouth), but 0-1 became 2-1 in a matter of minutes. So now, instead, Enzo is off at a better start then Pep’s a decade ago.

There’s a derby coming up on Sunday, then a straightforward Carabao Cup match.

Video summary.

Manchester City deserves it

‘m not surprised. Arsenal did not easily win at home.

Arsenal has beaten Chelsea (video), Chelsea had some good chances, but Manchester City remains on top for now.

Big test next week in the derby but first (Tuesday) a hard game in UEFA Champions League.

A week after the derby we’ll go near Old Trafford a few times. It’s our anniversary.

Just got ahead…

think that it’s fair to say Man United has true potential this season. After a rather poor start this season (losing away to Hull, 0-2) and after a strong end to the last season (winning 3-0) we see it getting ahead and showing signs of resurgence, even after signing up the coach with a proper contract. Even… as in the past this led to disappoitnment and regrets.

Is this current game worthy of appraisement? Everton struggled on many fronts as a club.

Next week’s derby will be… interesting.

In terms of stats, in this away game Man United has been the better team so far.

Manchester City fan will be watching

t’s Sunday and two interesting matches are due. One is the derby’s host for next week, Manchester United, and the other a difficult match (a London derby) for Arsenal. Both started this season with two wins. Only one (or neither) can get a third win.

Chelsea and Arsenal cannot both win

t’s fair to see that Enzo started on a strong note after an appalling Community Shield match. ManCity is now top with a comfy gap, awaiting results from other matches.
