EPL Power Rankings: Week 5

You know those optical illusion pictures where at first glance you think you’re looking at an old witch but you’re really looking at a beautiful young lady?  That pretty much sums up exactly how I feel looking the EPL table after five weeks.

I mean, let’s take a look at last season’s top seven teams.  Chelsea is at the top of the table, Everton is in 14^th and the other five teams and mixed there in between.

So how much can the table tell us at the beginning of the season?

To give you my short answer: Nothing.  The table as it currently sits honestly tells us nothing about where these teams will finish when the season is up.

So throw away your EPL table after five weeks, here is your updated EPL power rankings:
