Parrott's winner proved what we already knew—Mourinho's invincibility was always going to crack, and Betis were the ones sharp enough to find it.  •  Isak looks properly awake this season and Liverpool aren't messing about, which is bad news for everyone else pretending they're in the title race.  •  Lens versus Lorient is happening and honestly if you need instructions on how to watch French football in 2026, you've got bigger problems.  •  A supercomputer predicting Everton versus Manchester United tells you everything about how little separates the mid-table pretenders this season.  •  Arsenal's already thinking about Ipswich when half the league hasn't kicked a ball yet—that's either confidence or the kind of fixture scheduling that ruins September.
