The signs were encouraging in the first weekend....they have been even better in the second round of fixtures.
The Premier League might be witnessing a move back towards more open and attacking football. We had 30 goals across the first round of fixtures as compared to 24 across the opening weekend in 2025/26.
And we are up to 31 so far this weekend even ahead of Arsenal's trip to Aston Villa on Monday night.
There were two seven-goal thrillers on Sunday with Manchester United thrashing Ipswich 5-2 and Chelsea edging out Brighton 4-3 in a thriller at Stamford Bridge.
