We have our fixtures so now the planning can really begin. I’ve updated the “next five” table in your sidebar to offer a brief glimpse of how the teams square up over the opening games.

I still need to work on the full “Season Ticker” and I need to firm up the colour allocations a little to ensure I’m being consistent. This will come later this evening.

For now though, soak up the opening five and speculate on who will come out of the blocks fastest. My first impressions – somebody obviously has it in for Burnley, while all three of Chelsea, United and Liverpool appear to have strong platforms for a decent start. Not so sure on Arsenal.
