Even those of you who hate Spurs have to see that he is near enough incredible. He is actually all over the pitch, involved in every move and runs with the ball so well. His finishing is brilliant, as his first goal of the season proved, and he is not afraid to run at players or shoot from a distance, as today's prooved.

And I'm prepared to eat my words on this one, looks as if Alan Smith will cope at Utd, although it's still early days.

I hate Arsenal as much as every other Spurs fan out there, but Congratulations Gunners, you have been truly awesome, and I respect that. (I expect this level of respect returned if we ever beat your record :D)

Apparently Luis Figo is coming to Spurs? I'll believe it when I see it but I really don't think we need him. We already have Carrick, Mendes, Davis, Redknapp, Brown and Ricketts. I'm a big fan of Brown and Ricketts so that is a full enough central mid for me, without adding Figo to it because he would want guarenteed football.

Is it just me or are Newcastle looking poor this season? Only 2 points so far and they haven't played brilliantly, letting a 2 goal lead slip, to Norwich of all teams. I have a small doubt that they may not be challenging Liverpool for fourth this season, maybe even third if Man Utd can't keep up with the ever increasing pace.

What are your guys oppinions on Drogba so far? Obviously the Chelsea fans will jump up and say he needs time to settle, but surely a one on one is the same in all leagues all over the world? The number of simple finishes he's missed is poor for a 24 mil striker. Admittedly, was a good firm header today, but to me he has looked pretty poor.

Kluivert, is he injured? Or just not getting played? If he's not injured then it's a disgrace on Robson's part that he's not being played! He's a lot more established player than Bellemy (sp?), admittedly not in the Premiership, but he has the potential for 20 goals a season, Bellemy has yet to proove he has.

Before the season you were all saying Borough could be the surprise of the season, but I think Bolton could be working their way up the table. Okocha looks on incredible form and they've been playing well so far, who knows? How old is he?

Fabregas, is that how you spell it? Who is he? I had never heard of him before I saw him in an Arsenal shirt on day one, but he seems to be a hit with Wenger. Yes, hell probably be knocked out the team as soon as Vieira's back but he has looked very lively so far to me? How much was his transfer fee, and where is he from?

Ah well, I just got an email from who I hope is my girlfriend so I need the window to read it, that'll do. I'll leave you with a hilarious quote from the one and only, Gary Linekar:

'Arsenal, don't get too Cocky, Spurs are still 3 unbeaten so far'

I think he actually said '5' but I dunno why? :s

[EDIT] Best of luck to all of you who are receiving GCSE results tomorrow.

He scuffed it, but he did well a few minutes later with his 25 yard shot well saved.

:p
