Welcome back to the Fan Debate, brought to you by Sky Bet!

The Premier League season is well and truly underway, and after an opening weekend full of shocks, drama and plenty of talking points, it’s great to be back.

We start with Arsenal, who have picked up exactly where they left off. The reigning champions are riding high, but could this be the beginning of a period of dominance?

At the other end of the spectrum, Manchester United and Spurs endured nightmare starts, falling to newly promoted Hull and Brentford respectively. Is it a sign of things to come, or simply an opening-weekend blip?

We also hear from Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea as they begin new eras under new management, before finishing with Brentford, where there’s plenty of optimism for the season ahead under Keith Andrews.
