Chelsea and Man Utd lead the big four
Posted by DavidM in Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man United | 21 August 2006
After all the hype the season is underway and the teams have to prove if they are as good as their managers claimed.
The big four all played at the weekend and had mixed results. After their success over Chelsea, Liverpool stumbled against new-boys Sheffield United. Certainly a bad loss of 2 points.
Similarly Arsenal stuttered against Aston Villa despite having much of the possession and looking lively at times.
Chelsea got over their defeat in the Community Shield and marked their intentions of a third title in succession with a good win against Manchester City.
Finally, Man Utd crushed Fulham 5-1 at old Trafford. Not a bad start.
So first blood to the big spenders and ManU but there's a long, long way to go. The only thing that looks certain is that Chelsea remain the team to chase and these four will be fighting all the way.
