Chelsea put six past a hapless West Brom, Drogba bagging a hat-trick.The Baggies looked painfully weak, both in defence and up front, Chelsea cruised the game barely hitting second gear as they really didn't need to.This could be a long hard season for De Matteo's team, can they cling on for a second season in the top flight and put an end to the yo-yo-ing between Premiership and Championship?Personal highlight was the eagle eyed camera man picking out West Londons own Marilyn Monroe in the crowd, there was me thinking the biggest tits in West London were Cole and Terry!!!
Cockney wankers 6-0 WBA
Blackpool play their first ever game in The Premiership, and first in the top flight for nearly 40 years, and what a result.They stuff a shambolic, quite awful Wigan side on their own turf 4-0 and at 16:45 sit proudly on top of the table!!!!
Elsewhere James Milner plays probably his last game for Villa and scores, applauds the fans when subbed and gets a warm reception from the Brummie faithful, respect to that man.Everton have their usual pants start to the season losing 1-0 to Blackburn, Sunderland blow a 2-0 lead with 15 minutes to go, Birmingham's Ridgewell making it 2-2 with minutes left on the clock.
Spurs are all over Citeh for most of the game, bombarding the goal with Joe Hart in superb form keeping the millionaire's in the game.Another £100M+ spent and City are still a collection of players and not a cohesive team, Spurs look good, great midfield with Huddelestone, Modric, Lennon, strong up front with Defoe, Pav and Lurch, Bale should have sealed it in the final moments missing a sitter.
Full Time 0-0
