VIEWERS GET THEIR MONEY'S WORTH WITH GOAL GLUT
The goals just keep coming. There have been 144 goals from the opening 38 Premier League games this campaign, an average of 3.79 per match.
That is the highest goals per game ratio in an English top-flight season since 1930-31, when there were 3.95 goals per game, and some 29 per cent of games this term have featured five or more goals.
There have been no goal-less draws so far even though historically, close to 8 per cent of Premier League games finish 0-0.
LEEDS' QUALITY MEANS THEY CAN TARGET A TOP-HALF PLACE
Having gone toe-to-toe with champions Liverpool on the opening day and Pep Guardiola's Manchester City in a 1-1 draw at Elland Road on Saturday, big things are expected from an all-action Leeds United this season.
City dominated early on, but Marcelo Bielsa's side kept throwing bodies forward and deservedly equalised through Rodrigo Moreno, and could have taken all three points.
Leeds, who have seven points from four games, are sure to follow with more exhilarating performances.
CHILWELL REPAYING CHELSEA'S £50M OUTLAY QUICKLY
If Ben Chilwell's first league appearance in a Chelsea shirt is anything to go by, his £50 million (S$88.1 million) fee could be worth every penny.
The left-back was solid in defence during the Blues' 4-0 win over Crystal Palace, keeping Andros Townsend at bay.
