Swansea haven't read the Premier League script. They're supposed to lose. Mind you, there's plenty of time for someone to read to them their place in the hierarchy.
Talking of time, I understand Wenger is whinging that the opening day of the season has come too soon. Hasn't he been looking at the calendar for the last few months..? There was a World Cup in there, at some point, hence effectively the shortened pre-season. It's the same for all your rivals though, Arsene.
