Chelsea-Manchester United

First off wowsers!  When we say this weekend is a big match we don't exaggerate (like some other weeks) as number one hosts number two in this fight for the top spot. These two clubs have passed off the honor of being the Premier League's best week by week and this week seems to be the match where we will find out which team truly is the better squad.

After eleven league games it looks as if Chelsea and Manchester United will be the two sides battling for the title through the course of the season. Liverpool look to be all but out of it already, questions still remain as to whether Arsenal can maintain their form throughout the campaign and Man City have lost ground following a run of draws.

Aston Villa v Bolton
That was terrible loss to West Ham on Wednesday's night for Villa and they will be looking to get back on the winning track against a Bolton tea, that just has to be glad that they are not playing Chelsea again. It is clear that Chelsea, Arsenal and Man Utd are the class of the Premier League.

Is anyone else starting to get a little nervous for the Man City "project"?

I was thrilled by the way the team were playing for the first two months of the season. Â They were incisive, dashing, and had a swagger about them that said "we can do this". Â As sure as one swallow doesn't make a summer, a handful of early victories doesn't define a season.
