End of Week 1

Well that's the opening weekend of the Premier League out of the way, and not a bad start I must say - personally I think it's because Middlesbrough aren't there any more

Not a single draw, a game with seven goals, and City starting impressively

The same can't be said for my fantasy team - a mediocre 36 points, while Damian tops the league with 62 thanks to his choice of Rooney and Drogba, but don't worry - one of my other teams did just fine with Fabregas

But we might as well be thinking Everton will finish bottom - it's only the first week and it really does depend who gets lucky, give it a few weeks and it will settle - a great first week is always beneficial, but it has little bearing on the season, although Bobby Zamora can of course be relied upon for his trademark 'off the back and in'.....

The big winners this week were:

Drogba, with his brace

SWP, Ireland and Adebayor provided for City

Darren Bent produced a result for those wily enough to pick Sunderland's new front man

The Fulham defence held up

Delap got an assist, Shawcross got 15 pts

Upson rewarded players with a goal, while Cole got an assist

At Arsenal even Denilson scored - Fabregas returned two goals and two assists, the two centrebacks produced a goal each, Eduardo got on the score sheet and RVP got 2 assists - a bloody good week for the Arsenal fans

Meanwhile Rooney provided a goal, and the cheap United back four got the clean sheet

In the final game Stevie G delivered a good 7 points with a penalty, while most of Spurs' points went to their defenders, only Modric picking up anything useful out of the popular players
