- The final two games of Matchweek One saw two London clubs take home a valuable three points.
- Nearly all of the juice for the shortened slate came from Tottenham's shock win over Manchester City as Spurs shut out the defending champions.
- That result spelled disaster for our field as only Greg's "auto-selection" of Matt Doherty came from the victors. Neither Raheem Sterling (Scott/Ryan) nor Ferran Torres (Matt/Andrew) broke the 7.0 rating barrier.
- The lone man to venture away from the day's marquee matchup ended up with the day's top score. Pablo Fornals assisted on West Ham's opener against Newcastle and completed 89% of his passes for a 7.2 match rating.
- The optimal score for the day was 7.9 which one could have earned from selecting West Ham's Said Benrahma or Aaron Cresswell or Newcastle's Allan Saint-Maximin.
