Maybe they should take pointers from TSG Hoffenheim. 

They have scored against Bayern Munich in EIGHT SECONDS.

AFC Bournemouth have finally capitalized! They're up 2-0 on West Ham.

Welp...

The Cherries hang on. Just. Congrats on their first PL win.

Callum Wilson with the first hat-trick of the season.

The Swans couldn't hold on and had to settle for a draw. I decided I needed a Premier League side and I was disenchanted with Liverpool, so I just chose Swansea

1-Adam-12

12th Man, Swansea's not a bad choice. Bright young manager and an exciting style of play.

They and Crystal Palace will not be an easy out for anyone.  Lots of talent on those teams.

VHSCoach2

I could see Crystal Palace sneaking into a Top 5 finish this season.

Through the first two weeks, I'd say Manchester City looks like the early favorites for the title.

WPWells

I chose them because I watched their match against Chelsea and enjoyed their style. I saw them as a club I could see myself supporting

Man City @ Everton is a can't miss tomorrow.

I just read where Belguim's Kevin De Bruyne is headed from Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga to Manchester City. Him, Yaya, and Aguero are going to be unstoppable. De Bruyne tore us up in the World Cup.

Everton/Man City 0-0 at half .... someone is going to get one soon in this one. I feel it.

Chelsea is going hard after Everton's John Stones. Latest offer is $47 million.

Everton desperately needs to hang on to him.  They are thin on defense anyway with Baines out four months or so.

At least it looks to be true that John Stones is headed from Everton to Chelsea!

Chelsea and Manchester United.... How glorious it would be if they finished in the bottom three together.

Everton comes back from 0-2 down to tie Barnsley 3-3 at the end of regulation in a Capital One Cup game at Barnsley today.  In extra time now.

Edit: Everton now lead 4-3 thanks to a Barnsley own goal in the 96th.

My Swans don't play until tomorrow right in the middle of when I'll be in church

I forgot when Arsenal played this weekend and slept through the match this morning.  :'(

I honestly think all three of the new clubs have the capability to stay up at season's end. Yeah, Watford lost today, but they played juggernaut Manchester City. AFC Bournemouth have gotten a win and a draw the last two weeks, and Norwich has looked good as well.

Watford is only one point clear of Stoke, Newcastle, Southampton, and Sunderland, but I think they could beat any of those clubs.

Arsenal picks up a win, while Chelsea and Manchester United lose, hahaha! Great weekend!

Swansea City becomes only the SEVENTH team in Premier League history to beat Manchester United three matches in a row.  Oddly enough, Swansea's  two victories over Man U last season and today's victory were all by a 2-1 scoreline.

The Premier League is now on international break until September 12th.

WPWells

It's a great feeling to walk out of church and find that my Swans defeated United!

 City has all they have, they're top of the Prem, haven't given up a goal, and now they have picked up Kevin De Bruyne.

I guess it's good to be on the blue side of Manchester.

This was the wrong week for EPL to go on a break.... there are only like 3 college football games worth watching even  >:(

Group stage finally gets started for the Champions League next week.... Man City vs. Juventus is the big game for week 1

What a start Everton are off to! Naismith off the bench and scores twice in 5 minutes.

1-Adam-12

Everton aren't we?

Naismith scores a perfect hat-trick (left foot, right foot, header). 

The Special One has a lot of work to do.

Just finished my morning workout, now it's time to watch BPL as well as College Gameday. (Wearing my Arsenal shirt, of course.)

Love Saturdays this time of year.
