Amr Zaki is proving to be the "thinking out of the box" player that Wenger prefers.
With a nice affordable price tag.
He is on loan to Wigan and it is because of his performance that pundits suspect that Wigan are
better than they look. Steve Bruce is all praise for the EPL's top scorer.
Amr Zaki is the breakaway leader in the early stages of the FF season for Top Striker. And at only
£6.2m he represents good value indeed; he is playing every minute, has 3 goals and 1 assist to
his name, and perhaps more importantly is proving to be a bonus point magnet. He has earned a bonus
point every week for the first three weeks, and enviable achievement that is unmatched by any other
player.

The number of days that Wigan striker Amr Zaki will be a Wigan Athletic player are numbered. Even
when the Egyptian ends his loan spell and becomes a Wigan player, it's only a matter of time before
a massive club signs one of the brightest, most talented players the Premier League has seen in
years.

While the US has not yet agreed on a $700B bailout plan, we warned you (and begged you) to
select Cristiano Ronaldo as the $14M bailout plan in your side.
So that's what the top of the table feels like. On to the games...
Arsenal 3-1 Bolton -- Man the Gunners played some beautiful soccer on Saturday. 21 shots, 17
corners, 70% of possession. Turns out they were Jekyll this weekend and are now on top of the EPL
standings. Kevin Cyril Davies (14') had the goal for Bolton, before three straight by
Emmanuel Eboue (offside, 26'), Nicklas Bendtner (27') and Denilson (87').

First batch of match reviews from the past weekend. The final batch will be up tomorrow morning.
Note there won't be a second full match review as I was unable to see Sunderland v Manchester City
in full.
Everton v Portsmouth: Jermain Defoe's two goals and assist see Portsmouth go away and get an
emphatic 3-0 victory at Goodison Park.
Notable arrivals: Lee Cattermole (Middlesbrough), Amr Zaki (Loan), Olivier Kapo (Birmingham City),
Daniel de Ridder (Birmingham City), Maynor Figueroa. Notable departures: Antoine Sibierski
(Norwich, loan), Carlo Nash (Everton), Rachid Bouaouzan (NEC Nijmegen, loan), Marlon King (Hull
City, loan), David Cotterill.
Tottenham lose (is that news?) 2-0 to Portsmouth, credit Jermain Defoe with a goal and essentially
an assist on Peter Crouch's.
Manchester City lose 2-1 to Wigan. Anyone surprised that they appear to be super schizophrenic? Amr
Zaki with another goal. That's tied for an EPL best with 4, I think.
Notable arrivals: Lee Cattermole (Middlesbrough), Amr Zaki (Loan), Olivier Kapo (Birmingham City),
Daniel de Ridder (Birmingham City), Maynor Figueroa. Notable departures: Marlon King (Hull City,
loan), David Cotterill (Sheffield United), Andreas Granqvist (Gronigen), Marcus Bent (Charlton).
Heskey not leaving for.
