First things first, this isn’t the official Premier League table. It’s a performance one, which will be updated weekly, and that means you can go from top to bottom, and vice versa, in the space of seven days.There’s a clean slate at the start of each gameweek, which will be good news for some clubs — Aston Villa, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United at this rate.Results matter, of course, but when deciding where to rank teams from one to 20, we’ll be looking primarily at how well they played last time out, which means dissecting (or in the case of this weekend, watching) every Premier League game.If nothing else, it will provide you with a snapshot of how each team performed in the 2026-27 Premier League, week by week. And, naturally, you’ll be in full agreement with every summary, given that it’s a totally subjective process.Welcome to week one…1. Hull CityHull City 2 Manchester United 0This wasn’t in the script – Manchester United comprehensively beaten by everyone’s favourites to go down and Oli McBurnie, Hull’s bearded genius, running the show.(Charlotte Wilson/Offside/Offside via Getty Images)Tactically, the Hull head coach Sergej Jakirovic got it spot on – his use of a three-man defence and wing-backs exposed familiar problems for United.Hull were – with apologies – tigerish. The sight of Matt Crooks and Nobel Mendy teaming up on Bruno Fernandes just after the half-hour mark epitomised their hunger and desire. By that point, Hull had won almost twice as many duels as United and were also winning the game.Regan Slater channelled his inner David Beckham with his set-piece deliveries, Mohamed Belloumi ran around nutmegging people, and McBurnie dropped a lone-striker masterclass.It was that sort of day for Hull.2. BrentfordBrentford 3 Tottenham Hotspur 0This time last year, we would have been surprised. But not now. Brentford under Keith Andrews are an excellent team with multiple threats.Although Brentford had a lot of success against Spurs on Saturday through their centre-backs going direct into either Kevin Schade or Igor Thiago, who played like an old-school No 9, they produced some lovely football too, often involving the ubiquitous Keane Lewis-Potter (left-back, really?). On top of that, their pressing was excellent.The star of the show, though, was their £41million club-record signing Mamadou Sangare – athletic, two assists and a left foot that opens up all sorts of passing angles when he drops into the right-side pocket.
