*Official* English Football Season 2013-14

Ugh.

Wonder how his copper-bottomed self-belief is coping with the idea that he's back at a club who literally can't give him away, despite trying their damndest.

Only one reason (well 50,000 reasons a week, if the press is to be believed) he's still here.

My captain in fantasy this week too.

On the plus it means Oscar is my new captain and Barkley comes into the XI.

****, guess you'll be top this week, Lumpard my cap'n:@

I got Barcley on the bench too, but he won't count, and Jussi in goal not great, particularly with Boruc on the bench.

It might depend on how well RVP goes. I plan to bring him in next week which will cost me 4 points.

GOALLL from Stoke. They are definitely playing a better brand of football this year, well done Mark Hughes.

Yeah, Stoke aren't the evil they once were under Pulis and ex-argyle hitman, the font of all malevolence.

They should be deep in it this year. They look painfully open at the back and have almost no quality going forward. Hughes seems to have brought his trademark atrocious set piece defending too.

Two more assists from Ozil, he maybe a decent signing.

The real test is will he be able to get Bendtner to score when he comes on.

Today they haven't looked great at the back but last week against City they were good. I picked them to be relegated at the start of the year, but I can't see it happening now. Stoke also have decent options on the bench. I think Pennant should be getting more game time than he is at the moment.

That's a bit harsh, they've started well this year, and everyone is going to look open against this Arsenal side.

I just love this Arsenal team so much. Giroud, Ramsey, Gibbs and Per (Theo to less extent) all being immense gives me a warmy fuzzy feeling of self content and then you throw in all the more widely loved players like Bac, Koscielny, Wilshere, Santi and Özil and it's gun. Szczesny's a loveable crazy bastard, reminds me of myself as a keeper far too much.

I mean, we are top of the league, say....

I'm moreso talking about how little protection they're giving the back four. It was the same against Liverpool, although tbf it sounds like they were pretty tight last week.
