On the first day of the new Premier League season, Arsene Wenger will apparently leave Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri out of his Arsenal squad when they travel to St James Park, according to the BBC. As the big boys in Europe look to gut the Gunners' midfield, where does this leave Wenger's prospects this 2011/2012 season?
With the despicable riots seen this week across the country, Tottenham Hotspur's home game with Everton has been postponed with parts of Tottenham near the High Road left in ruin. This is just as sad as the England midweek friendly against Holland being cancelled due to the riots in London however it is really positive that all other games will go ahead.
A big welcome to Swansea, Norwich and last season's Championship winners Queens Park Rangers. As you can see from the fixtures list below, all 3 Prem teams have tricky fixtures for their opening matches, especially Swansea. That said, is there such a thing as a non-tricky Premier League fixture?
