Alfie's Premier League

11:30am 17 Aug 2011 Well the first round of fixtures are done and dusted and I'm sure there was a sense of relief in the UK that they went off trouble-free following the riots - hopefully the Spurs v Everton postponement was a sad, but understandable, EPL one-off.

Welcome to my Premier League football blog. I'm Alex 'Alfie' Bell, a Pommie sports web editor, and for the next nine months I will be blogging on the most popular competition in the world. So New Zealand fans, please get involved with your comments, predictions and views on 'the beautiful game'.

Noshow #9 Thanks Noshow I stand corrected, I thought he was in his mid twenties, maybe even more reason to give him the arm band, he's had a good season by any standards.

Terry is a defender, not a midfielder.

@Charlie #8

Scott Parker is 31.

phil_style #7 Its just my opinion but I would rather see Scott Parker wear the Captains armband for England than John Terry, and although he is still very young, If my memory serves me well the Great Bobby Moore became England captain @ 23/24. But with that said I beleive after Gareth Bale he is the best player in the EPL right now...... It can not be any coincidence that as soon as Martin O'Neil takes over @ Sunderland, they look like a different team. I think Newcastle may well fade away as the season progreses and I honestly believe Tottenham Hotspur and Not Swansea are playing the best football in the League right now. And finaly can I congratulate Alfie yet again on being so far ahead of other football Blogs and Forums as Fabio Capello resigns from the England job and truly throws our game into Chaos.... Alfie's Premeir League, Does what it says on the can

So, 'Arry is found innocent... one less item of "chaos in the English game" to write about.

Alex, what are your thoughts on the actual game? Do you think Scott Parker is the best defensive midfielder going for England? Are there any stars in the relegation threatened teams that deserve some limelight? What do you make of Newcaslte at the moment? Where have Sunderland come from all of a sudden? Are Swansea playing the "best" football in the league?
