With another weekend of Premier League action in the books, we take a look back at some of what we learned from the latest slate of matches.
Rio doesn't like fun
Wearing a yellowing vest and hurling Werther's Originals at his television set this weekend was Rio Ferdinand. Instead of being entertained by a Saturday which boasted 25 goals in 6 matches and saw a broken record, the former Manchester United defender adopted an attitude usually reserved for cantankerous, lonely middle-aged men with a lorry-load of regrets.
Leicester City top of the league right now..are they that good or does that tell you about the low standard of the league compared to others

Translation: "It's not like the good old days ... "
Stick on one of your old Coldplay albums and bury your face in the Daily Mail, Rio. Enjoy your solitude. We're all off to the Vardy party.
Jamie Vardy: Record breaker
What more is there to say?
With a little help from Riyad Mahrez and friends, Jamie Vardy has given a generation blighted by anti-social behaviour orders, teenage pregnancy, and redundancies someone to call their own.
To make it even better, he did it while firing a relegation-tipped and unfashionable Leicester City to the top of the league.
Get that man's face on a bag of crisps.
Is Watmore the real deal?
There is no worse country than England when it comes to over-hyping young talent, but if there is one lad who can carry that burden it's Duncan Watmore.
After being dumped by Manchester United at the age of 12, he decided to focus on his education while turning out for local non-league side Altrincham.
A first-class honours degree in economics and business management at Newcastle University later, and Watmore is now ready to knuckle down for Sunderland, for whom he joined in 2014.
Veteran teammate Jermain Defoe has compared his movement to Gareth Bale, and his goal-scoring appearance off the bench in Saturday's 2-0 defeat of Stoke was extremely impressive. His late introduction for the England Under-21 side two weeks ago, however, tops everything so far.
Fifteen minutes, one goal, two goals created - including this fine assist:
With his work rate and relentless running, Watmore is already becoming a favourite with the Stadium of Light faithful.
Kevin, a Friend you can rely on
Only Kevin Friend knows why Bournemouth's visit of Everton was allowed to tick into its 98th minute on Saturday.
The referee and his officials agreed to an additional five minutes at Dean Court, and when Ross Barkley's shot slipped under third-choice 'keeper Ryan Allsop the clock was at 94:44. Some travelling Scousers did litter the pitch as they got over-excited and wanted to greet their heroes, and Darron Gibson was brought in place of a slow-to-leave Arouna Kone, but that wasn't long enough for the 16 seconds to float as far as 97:12.
Not that it matters to Cherries' fans and neutrals, who got to see Junior Stanislas - a West Ham academy graduate and free acquisition for Bournemouth last year - rise and nod the ball beyond a helpless Tim Howard.
Six goals were shared equally in a match that is an early candidate for the finest of this campaign.
Arsenal compounded by injuries, again
Can Arsenal get a break with its injuries? No, but plenty of strains and tears.

If you turned on a little late to the Gunners' 1-1 draw at Norwich City on Sunday, the likelihood is that you would've seen an Arsenal player writhing on the turf.
But Arsene Wenger's side is not one for acting, it's just every new season means a fresh injury crisis. It can't just be bad luck - there must be something wrong with the club's preparation; it could be over-exertion in training, or a lack of exertion in the warmup.
The current number in the treatment room at Colney is estimated at nine, second only in the league to the unlucky Bournemouth.
