Matchday 3: Social media buzz
The 2016-2017 season has delivered one of the biggest surprises in all of Europe, with Las Palmas being the leader of the pack after two games played. Whether it is early in the season to think they can pull a "Leicester" on Real Madrid and Barcelona, the team from the Canary Islands has attracted lots of media attention, and their manager earned the league's Coach of the Month award.
