Saturday Quick Review

Marc Albrighton - a hyper-value bargain.

The first day of Premier League turned out to be a big nightmare for me as I only score 18 points up until now! But let's forget about that and see what we've got from the first match day of EPL:

  • While Joe Hart is the hero of Manchester City, we shouldn't forget one player who is as solid as him in Tottenham - Benoit Assou-Ekotto. The left flank is so secured with him and Bale!
  • Blackpool climbed to the top of the table for about two hours thanks to ex-Hammer Marlon Harewood. They should have no more regrets now.
  • Wigan, on the other hand, confuses me with N'Zogbia not playing! Their awful form is a clear indicator to captain Didier Drogba next week.
  • Apparently Aston Villa's temporary manager Kevin MacDonald has made Villans playing attractive football. Marc Albrighton became the new fantasy favourite costing only £4.5m! Have a look at Luke Young as well as he is now back into Villa's starting XI.
  • Forget about the awful pre-seasons. Just one game and Chelsea has already shown that they are still as strong as last season. Drogba 3, Malouda 2, and Lampard 1.
  • The doubtful news is totally rubbish. Drogba played and scored 17, Lampard played and scored 8 and even Bent played and scored 5! Such a big crusher for those who didn't buy them (including me). And I will not be surprised if all Van Persie, Fabregas and Torres plays.
  • Thanks to the above fact, I'll have to use my first wildcard now.
