Images coming in from Man Utd  

Breaking News!   Apparently, Robin Van Persie has failed a medical at Manchester United. He has a severely damaged back after carrying a full squad last season.

Yey.   Beer and snacks ready  

Last season they had 7 points in their first 10 matches. It took them 15 matches to get up to 14 points (which they've done in only 7 matches this season). They almost always do much better in the second half of the season so a good start could mean big things!

Pundits have already been saying that Everton finished fourth the last time they started well. fwiw, that time they went on to lose in the CL qualifier before the group stage.

 

Everton play a lot of long ball, as do Newcastle, which some teams handle much better than others. I think it's still a bit early days to call.

With Pienaar and Baines playing on the left side together there has been a lot less of the long ball this season. Might be part of the success they've been having. Jelavic has been quite the force as well and has proven to be very good value.
