City doing their alternate years thing, looked immense. Sunday's quite exciting - very early days but a five point gap would be a very interesting way to have the board set-up at this point. If there's some kind of way to accommodate De Bruyne alongside Silva and Sterling, behind Aguero, that's quite frightening.

European super cup tonight and a first look at BT Sport's European coverage. Alba's injured, Neymar's out with the mumps and none of the new signings can play but Barca are otherwise at full strength. N'zonzi is out for Sevilla, but I'm hoping to see Immobile and Konoplyanka.

This thing on Ivan Rakitic is great - http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/aug/10/barcelona-ivan-rakitic-sevilla-super-cup
