...and Here We Go!

At last, the football famine is over—Premier League’s back and the buffet is open! The 2025/26 season kicks off with a bang, and right at the centre of the first weekend’s drama is at Old Trafford, where Manchester United welcome Arsenal. The Gunners roll in with fresh firepower—Viktor Gyökeres and Martín Zubimendi—looking to go one better than last season’s runner-up finish. United, not to be outdone, have ripped up their old front three and gone full makeover mode with the signings of Benjamin Sesko, Matheus Cunha & Bryan Mbuemo.


Liverpool aren’t just defending their crown—they’re adding sparkle, with Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike already in, and Alexander Isak maybe waiting in the wings. Manchester City, meanwhile, are throwing £300 million at their “oops, no trophies” hangover, plus getting Rodri back to steady the ship. Chelsea have gone on a £250 million shopping spree (again), picking up Brazilians Joao Pedro & Estevao and a bit of confidence under Enzo Maresca. And Spurs? They’ve got Thomas Frank steering their post-Postecoglou reboot, hoping to keep up with the big dogs. All this and more in this week’s Just For Kicks!
