Summary: The sometimes controversial Irish pundit may be known for making a few outlandish statements of his own, but Eamon Dunphy joins BTP to give us his view on the biggest shorelines and soap operas facing the Premier League as the season gets underway, a season in which the biggest spenders have not only bought well and early, but have also seemed to purchase tranquility and unity as well. We begin with Manchester United and the sizzling triangle between Sir Alex Ferguson, Wayne Rooney and David Moyes where the ghosts of seasons past have been gift-wrapped and deposited on the door step of a new manager seeking to build his own bridges to a new era at Old Trafford. This includes the self-failures by Moyes, the poorly directed campaign at the end of the 2012-13 season to mark the end for Rooney as it was the end for Sir Alex himself and the lack of options left in the season ahead but the potential of a regretful sale, perhaps to Chelsea who would consider this acquisition to tip the scales with Manchester City for Premier League dominance. We also look at the situation as it was between Luis Suarez and Liverpool where the contract and circumstances made it an easier outburst to corral and contain, then off to the matter of what could be destructive at Arsenal as fans clearly have begun to turn on Arsene Wenger in a campaign that could get a lot worse should the club not start the season well. We examine what Wenger is getting right, what he seems to be missing and what really was lost when David Dein left the football club and whether we need to re-evaluate the genius label with this point in mind.
