The Premier League is five weeks old and it's already delivering. Brighton are flying, Ryan Cherki looks like a future Ballon d'Or winner, and Tottenham are spending 500 million pounds to achieve absolutely nothing.

Mike and Myles break down September 2026 - Brighton as team of the month, five player power rankings, fan forum takes from United and Villa supporters, and Tottenham as crisis club of the month.

De Zerbi has no system, no tactical plan, and a squad of players who don't know each other. We don't think he'll see the season out.

The Premier League 26/27 season is almost here. Mike, Myles and Dave sit down before a ball has been kicked to predict how it all plays out - and it gets heated.

Nine new managers. Nine clubs in Europe. Arsenal the consensus favourites. But who finishes where, who surprises, and who drops off? One of us thinks Enzo Maresca is the new David Moyes at Manchester City. Another thinks Bournemouth could get relegated. And somehow we end up arguing about home kits.

Top five predictions, player of the season picks, ones to watch, biggest drop-offs, surprise packages, and favourite kits - all on the record, all to be revisited at the end of the season.

Did Tuchel cost England a World Cup final? Would Southgate have done better? And what does Bellingham's emergence mean for England's future?
