* Steven Gerrard was Liverpool's most potent attacking player.
* Absolutely nothing happened at Fulham.
* Everton fans complained to police that Wayne Rooney had made 'gestures'.
* Wigan lost. But immediately became known as 'brave Wigan'.
* Sam Allardyce raged at the officials who cost Bolton points.
* Arsenal did not have a Plan B.
* Portsmouth's complete unknowns John Viafara and Azar Karadas were absolutely rotten.
* El-Hadji Diouf had a penalty appeal turned down.
* Ruud van Nistelrooy scored a goal from about four yards. And dived.
* Somebody said: "It's early in the season but that has to be a contender for goal of the season."

* Thierry Henry scored...and didn't smile.
* It rained in Manchester
