Game Week 2: What I've Learnt...

Well, from who played anyway. Other teams are involved in European fixtures this week.

Birmingham City - Home form crucial to Premier League hopes.

Burnley - Brian Jensen will be just as important to their fortunes as the goals they score.

Chelsea - Deco may prove integral in 4-4-2 diamond formation, Essien to play defensive.

Hull City - Start with Geovanni, main creative threat.

Liverpool - Have faith in youth, don't panic buy, i.e. Kyrgiakos.

Manchester United - Expect to delve into transfer market for big name player.

Portsmouth - Favourites for relegation.

Stoke City - As before, Delap - throw - goal won't win you every game, especially away at Anfield.

Sunderland - Bent important, don't take the foot off the gas when ahead against bigger teams. Cana and Cattermole would be missed.

Tottenham Hotspur - Defoe to have biggest season yet, with club and country.

Wigan Athletic - Flying (too) high after result at Villa Park.

Wolves - Milijas just as important as Ebanks-Blake and Kightly, impressive first two games for the Serb.
