After beating Arsenal last weekend, Aston Villa manager Martin O’Neill will be aiming to get the better of Arsene Wenger once again with the signing of Belgian starlet Steven Defour in January. The two clubs look set to enter a bidding war for the young playmaker though they may well not be alone as at least 9 Premier League clubs are reported to be tracking the Belgian international.

Plenty has been written about Tottenham’s Brazilian stopper Heurelho Gomes this season and after another horror show at Craven Cottage he will soon find himself on his way out in January. Spurs brought in Gomes to replace Paul Robinson after he made numerous mistakes last season but seemingly nothing has changed. I know that Harry Redknapp has been strongly linked with Newcastle’s Shay Given and for me, he would be perfect for Tottenham.

Joe Kinnear, who famously opened his spell at Newcastle by swearing 52 times in a 5 minute press conference, is in trouble again over the words leaving his mouth.

The top two clash this weekend at the Bridge and personally I expect Chelsea to win. I just don’t think Liverpool can keep nicking results like they have been lately especially as at the weekend they looked extremely vulnerable at the back whilst the Blues certainly don’t.

Tonight we can enjoy another ‘Battle of Britain’ as Scottish Champions Celtic travel to Old Trafford to face the English champions Manchester United. This will be another great spectacle with Celtic supporters arriving in numbers as usual to give their side a terrific backing. There’ll be 76,000 packed into the stadium to witness a British style match with an unbelievable atmosphere. Unfortunately for Celtic I just can’t see them getting a result.

This week former Newcastle star John Barnes has spoken about the plight of the Tyneside club but despite sitting 3rd from bottom of the Premier League, being placed up for sale and a short-term caretaker manager in place he doesn’t fear for their top division safety.

We have a break from the thrills and spills of the Premier League this week with another round of World Cup qualifiers. Now a lot has been made of Fabio Capello’s decision to exclude Michael Owen again from the squad but for me it’s hardly surprising.

I must start by congratulating Tottenham fan Tony Morris from Harrow for his £100K jackpot win on Premier 10 last week. This was quite a feat when you consider some of the results including Bolton and Middlesbrough winning away, so well done to you. As Tony is a Tottenham fan, I’m sure it was hard for him to back Hull to win at White Hart Lane but I’m sure the cash will cheer him up after Spurs dismal start to the season.
