    POCHETTINO KEY TO KANE’S SPURS & ENGLAND REPUTATION

    POCHETTINO KEY TO KANE’S SPURS & ENGLAND REPUTATION   Harry Kane needs help. Although Tottenham’s 1-0 loss to Manchester United wasn’t a particularly inspiring 90 minutes for either side—we saw pre-season standard football, in all honesty—Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino should be worried by Kane’s lack of influence.

    MORE WAYS TO WIN – MILLIONAIRE CONSOLATION WON IN FIRST WEEK   Going into the last leg of six, in the £2,000,000 Millionaire, no fewer than six players were still in the hunt to scoop a share of one of the two consolation prizes on offer.

    THE RUMOUR MILL

    THE RUMOUR MILL   Cristian Zapata, AC Milan to Everton Likelihood: 3/5 To my mind, this deal is entirely reliant on whether John Stones ends up at Chelsea. If he does then not only will Everton have a large gap to fill in central defence, but they will also have a heap of money to spend on acquiring a top class replacement.

    TACKLING THE £2,000,000 PICK6   Ahhh….the opening weekend of the Premier League season. Welcome back my old friend. Let the normal Saturday routines begin again in earnest. The first Pick6 of the season has thrown up some interesting games, and if you fancy your chances, remember to stake a minimum of £2 to be in with a chance of a slice of the £2 million top prize.

    TIME FOR WALCOTT AND WILSHERE TO DO THE BUSINESS

    TIME FOR WALCOTT AND WILSHERE TO DO THE BUSINESS   Every year the same chatter follows two Arsenal players in particular. “Jack Wilshere needs a strong season,” says one pundit. “Theo Walcott must begin to deliver in front of goal,” notes another.

    MICHAEL OWEN vs THE £10,000,000 COLOSSUS

    Michael Owen attacks the Colossus   In my season-opening piece, I have actually tipped Bournemouth to be relegated in 18th place but I reckon Eddie Howe’s newly-promoted side could at least get their Premier League campaign off to a flying start with a home win over Aston Villa.

    THE RUMOUR MILL

    Dimitar Berbatov, free agent to Aston Villa Likelihood: 5/5 Villa boss Tim Sherwood is not afraid to put his faith in tempestuous characters; Adebayor thrived under his guidance at Spurs, while Benteke found his best form during the 46-year old’s spell at the helm of Villa last season.

    MICHAEL OWEN’S PREMIER LEAGUE PREVIEW FOR 2015-16

    MICHAEL OWEN’S PREMIER LEAGUE PREVIEW FOR 2015-16   A lot of people seem worried by the lack of new additions to the Chelsea squad in the summer – just four, with Begovic the costliest arrival at £8m – but they won the league in a canter last season and I’m with Jose Mourinho here.

    WHO’S IN THE RACE FOR THE EPL GOLDEN BOOT IN 2015-16?   The Premier League title is clearly the biggest domestic prize on offer this season, but ahead of Saturday’s big kick-off, a select group of players may have half an eye on another trophy that is handed out in May.

    CONTINUITY BREEDS SUCCESS – WENGER MODEL TO BRING TITLE?

    CONTINUITY BREEDS SUCCESS – WENGER MODEL TO BRING TITLE?   It is the conundrum we always address prior to the birth of another exhilarating Premier League campaign – will Arsenal mount a sustained title challenge? For the best part of a decade the Gunners have either started sluggishly, relying on a late rally to earn another top four finish, or they have been in the mix early on, before being out-muscled by a Stoke or a Bolton, knocking their confidence and leaving them with a mountain to climb.
