Chelsea, who began strongly under their new management, received a 6/10 after losing two of their past three games and being picked apart by Brentford. Liverpool earned the same 6/10 rating despite their unbeaten record, suggesting their defensive solidity has masked offensive limitations.
The season assessment comes ahead of a three-week international break with no Premier League games until 10 October. These rankings capture just the opening phase of the campaign, with much of the season remaining to determine which teams can sustain their performances.
