It's CALM At The Top of the Premiership

It's CALM at the top of the English Premiership. CALM, that is Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United, who all took their places at the top of the world's premier league, although not quite in that order. After an unsettled start, for at least some of the top four clubs, these household names are again in dominating positions.

Just look at the array of talent that was on display yesterday, the18th October. Chelsea scored five, as the consistent Frank Lampard helped to secure their victory over Middlesbrough. Arsenal were out of the traps a bit slowly, before the emerging Walcott and Co. strode into their 3 - 1 defeat of Everton. Liverpool had to recover from a goal deficit as their gamed seesawed, before Gerrard led them to a 3 - 2 win against Wigan. The irrepressible energy of Wayne Rooney was plain to see, as was the artistry of Ronaldo, as United beat West Brom 4 - 0.

For a feast of international footballing talent there is nothing to beat the Premiership. How lucky we fans are, to be able to see the best players in the world in action, week after week. There is such an international assortment of talent on display, to satisfy even the most critical pundits.

Fortunately, the season is not long underway, and there are many thrills and a few spills to come. There is not only the Premiership, mighty as it is, but favourites to watch in the European Championship as well. Later this week, Manchester United of England, will play Celtic of Scotland, and what a match that promises to be. Such a meeting between Great British football clubs is sure to excite the crowd to full voice. There will be so much to cheer, but the real winner is the British game that plays host to so many wonderful international players.

It will definitely be the usual big 4 at the top of the Premiership come the end of the season, just not quite sure at the moment in what order they will be in although I think Arsenal will be in 4th.
Chelsea are looking very good, but for some reason, not sure what it is, but I think it could finally be Liverpool's year. Suppose only time will tell!
