Gladbach's Favre quits

Despite losing the first six matches of the season and propping up the rest of the Bundesliga, the management of Borussia Monchengladbach did not expect to find Favre’s resigning in front of the press.

Dortmund improve considerably

2014/15 - 17 games = 15 points
2015/16 - 5 games = 15 points
BVB are on fire with a 100% record. Head coach Tuchel has won every competitive game he’s been in charge of since taking over from Jurgen Klopp and it’s practically impossible to wipe the smile off Dortmund fans’ faces as they sit pretty at the top of the league. But who can blame them after a disastrous start to the last campaign?

Mathieu Valbuena, a traitor?

Valbuena’s return to the Vélodrome with the wrong Olympique (O. Lyonnaise) shirt was seen as an act of treason by the Marseille fans. The eight seasons he spent in Marseille turned him into a legend for the club and he had a honoured farewell when he left last year to join Dynamo Moscow. The weekend’s match against Lyon was held up for 23 minutes after fans threw bottles aimed at the player.

Valencia boss on the brink

‘Nuno veté ya’. Fans were calling for Nuno’s resignation this weekend in Mestalla after the team that invested €135m this summer only managed goalless draw with Betis at home, another step back for a team who are supposed to fight for the title this season. Problems in front of goal don’t help. Valencia have only scored twice in four matches, amounting to a single victory and three draws.

5

Rodgers is another coach with problems

Liverpool fans' patience is not going to last much longer. The team drew at home against Norwich City and with two draws and two defeats in six games it’s not the start Liverpool fans would have hoped for.

6

Martial and De Gea boost United

‘Who is Martial?’, Wayne Rooney apparently asked when Manchester United decided to pay a ridiculous amount of money for the 19 year old French player. But after just a few games Rooney sure knows who Martial is now. At the same time, the Red Devils' fans must be happy with how David De Gea’s proposed transfer to Real Madrid concluded with a contract extension at Old Trafford. We saw some really nice saves this weekend from the Spaniard.

De Bruyne is also shinning

The young Belgian player's adaptation at the Etihad was quick and he plays in Manchester like he was raised there. Good associations, crosses and in general a good game against West Ham that he could and should have finished with a goal.

West Ham are giant killers

The Londoners are the fourth team in Premier League history to win away at Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City in the same season. A great start for Bilic’s team.

9

Chelsea win in controversial fashion

Diego Costa and Mike Dean were the main antagonists of the London derby against Arsenal from a Gunners’ fan's perspective. His tussle with Gabriel Paulista got the Brazilian sent off and left the Gunners playing with ten.

10

Totti hits the big three-zero-zero

This weekend the legendary Italian player reached 300 goals in a Roma shirt after 24 seasons. Still going strong at 38!
