Thank Goodness - It's Saturday Again!
Morning, chaps - I'm up with the chickens as usual before the rest of the household wakes up to catch a snippet of the morning action. We start with Wolves hosting a Spurs team still smarting from that beating they took from Chelsea on Monday. Then we get to the 10am kickoffs, including ManYoo v. Luton on USA and Arsenal v. Burnley on Peacock. Our friend UWS is over in Blighty at that match today, so let's hope that his Red Devils treat him to a win.
At the same time, I'll have my eyes trained on Elland Road where my beloved Leeds United will be hosting Plymouth and hoping to continue our excellent recent run of form.
Enjoy the day, everyone!

With an international break looming, Wolves host Spurs in the opening Premier League game of the weekend. Following Monday night’s chaotic defeat at the hands of Chelsea, Ange Postecoglou brings a severely depleted squad to Molineux, his options seveely limited by injury and suspension.
Wolves lost against Sheffield United last time out but were somewhat unfortunate to do so, going down to a late, late Ollie Norwood penalty that should not have been awarded.
Wolves: Sa; Semedo, Dawson, Kilman, Toti; Bellegarde, Lemina, Gomes, Ait-Nouri; Hwang, Cunha.
Subs: Bentley, Doherty, Traore, Silva, Bueno, Kalajdzic, Jonny, Doyle, Sarabia.
Tottenhamn Hotspur: Vicario; Porro, Royal, Dier, Davies; Sarr, Hojbjerg, Bissouma; Kulusevski, Son, Johnson.
Subs: Forster, Skipp, Gil, Lo Celso, Bentancur, Phillips, Veliz, Donley, Dorrington.
We're underway at Molineux.
GOAL! Spurs bounce back with an early goal through Johnson. Nice overlapping run and Brenon Johnson merely had to tap home.
0-1 Spurs!
Wolves have got a firm foothold in the game after that very early setback and are now giving Tottenham plenty to think about. It’s shaping up to be a good game.
With that early goal, Spurs have retaken the lead at the top of the Premier League. Of course, Citeh and Arsenal will have something to say about that later on.
In the Championship, Sunderland are keeping up their good form and are 1-0 up over Brum at home.
Spurs hilariously gave up a late, late equalizer which will keep Citeh at the top this weekend.
I'm really delighted with this performance by my Leeds boys, who are leading 2-0 up in the second half, through goals from Dan James and Joel Piroe.
Honestly, we should be five or six up at this point.
Meanwhile in the other matches of note in the Championship, Leicester are drawing 1-1 with Boro, Ipswich are 3-1 up over Swansea and the Saints are drawing 1-1 with WBA.
When we bought Piroe, I thought that he'd dominate the scoring, but now it seems like we're going to share the goals around the front four:
Piroe: 6
Summerville: 6
James: 5
Rutter: 3
Bloody hell! We've conceded one through a Junior Firpo mistake.
2-1.
Very tense last few minutes here.
