I think Hull, though 3rd, are also worth a mention. Any promoted team to beat 4 london teams, including arsenal in their first 9 games is amazing.

mele419: Well there are four, of which three of them are the “big three”, Fenerbahce, Besiktas, and the best of the three, Galatasaray.

Match fixing aside, a major factor in Rubin’s resurgence is a rejuvenated Serhiy Rebrov pulling the strings in midfield.

Musab, how many Turkish teams are from Istanbul?
Maybe they should branch out a little there… ahah

Maybe it’s worth noting that the top 5 places in the Turkish super league 4 are held by non-Istanbul teams…

Hoffenheim is truly the Cinderella story of Europe. The game against Hamburg yesterday was super — wonderfully energetic, attacking football (especially Andreas Beck) with precise passes and fantastic on-the-ball skills (Obasi, I’m looking at you, sir). I’m really looking forward to seeing them taking on the rather lumbering giants.

All I know about Rubin is that their Uefa Cup jersey a few years ago was bada-BING!
