- snip I feel like you compromised your defense somewhat. Players like Trent, Robertson & Cancelo will probably outscore all midfielders with price of 8M or lower and they are cheaper. I have all 3 in my squad but my midfield looks much worse than yours it is all about knowing how Fantasy puts points for players feels like they are taking into account small number of scoring position (as goals, assist, clean sheets and similar), looking at Sorare Opta scoring, where they are taking into account all tackles, entering with a ball into penalty area, heavy breathing (this is a joke), EPL Fantasy seems as light manager, and most players take best scorers, otherwise you can end-up with 0's nevertheless, have some of icopress mid's and defenders from your team

Ajax was also favorite to win the match. -snip
agree that Ajax was favorite to win this one, but match got out of control, and PSV scored almost all shots on target (5 in from 7 shots) sure, this one hurts them, and could even push them back for first part of the season, but they seem as favorites to win the title, no matter this PSV got one trophy already, congrats

Nice going casper! Make it 3 in a row next one maybe eh?
~snip
will try to do it, but it would be too much nevertheless, finally getting into top3 in this pool table, hopefully could stay there until the end, had a rough start, but it is getting better now there is too much pools these days, keep joining day by day, will probably think in October why I needed all these pools, but it looks as great fun atm

Game 1: 29' 4-0 Sao Paolo Game 2: 29' 1-1 Draw Game 3: 29' 3-1 Tottenham

in the end, it was inevitable, I am joining the pool here is transactionit would be good to have 15 participants or more, but I expect good fun with less as well will make some final change to my team before Friday, now I play two fantasy competitions, have to be more serious

This year we will not have free bet challenge. Instead we will have at least one and probably more competitions with merchandise as rewards and we will award yellow cap as mentioned above.
I like it, free bet challenge was good, but this seems better from my point of view it is a win-win situation for them, if you like to wear merch with their sign, basically free marketing is there a plan to include Sao Paolo merch as well? have a nice vacation

Congrats casperBGD, Free Bet coming your way!
thanks, it is a second in a row It was such a wonderful race! I'm actually sad to see Leclerc missing another opportunity to win a race. ~snip
yeah, sad for LeClerc, and probably end of race for Max, another title is already served Sainz finished above Perez, but Mercedes took two position on podium, they are back, and probably be better next season

count me in it is a great news, and sponsorship is rocking, biggest pool that I am aware of
my results in CL are far from great, but will put more effort into it this season could be a good season in CL, since there is quite a lot of teams that can fight for the title, and somehow I am close to support AC Milan to go to SF, or similar
|
|
|
My team has been set for from the beginning but I am tinkering with it every couple of days. ~snip
my team is also ready, and I will probably join the pool next week, before the competition starts this season I am also going with Salah (is there a team without him?), but will also try different tactics comparing to last season hopefully, we will have an interesting fight, although there are more experienced players, and that is more important here than in Superbru

In other final which is going to play at Umag (Croatia), clay we have two new generation players those are going to be had good future in tennis, and surely we will watch them for long time in this game. Here competition is very exciting as Sinner is in good touch, and he can do good job for win this title and Alcaraz is also having good touch even he lost few days back a final but now surely nothing is easy he can fight back, and we will watch entertaining match with I am feeling over 2.5 is very good option for bet.
great final in Umag, two young stars on small tournament, it will probably be great to watch, and third setter should be expected Alcaraz is a bit closer to a win, which odds show as well, but he lost his previous final to another Italian future star Mussetti, and will be under pressure to win it this week Sinner has also something to prove, and probably Italians will come to support him, since this is near the border over 2.5 seems as best option, agree

Shocking loss from Bayer Leverkusen losing to a third league club. They conceded 4 goals from a team that is two league below them and that is just a disgrace. They should have done much better and they now need to bounce back fast once bundesliga starts.
agree, you can lose from clubs that are playing in lower division by mistake, and 0:1, but conceiving four goals from third league team is a real shame they are playing CL this season but, on a good note, they have one competition less to play, and that could help to focus on CL and Bundesliga, to make good results

~snip Osijek got eliminated by Kyzylzhar (I almost broke my keyboard spelling name of this team ). Kyzylzhar spent most of game in defense, but it was enough for them to make few dangerous attacks in 2nd half to convert it into 2 goals. One of biggest surprises. had to google them, to see who they are, and they are on position 12 in Kazakhstan league, where 13 and 14 position indicate relegation and they kicked Osijek, that had some fine results in European cups in previous seasons, really big surprise also Radnicki, that had lead at home against Gzira, and lost in the end, great results from Malta (as would be put in Serbian newspapers - everyone plays football today, isn't - that is always excuse when teams or national team lose to some teams from lower placed countries)

~snip I think i deserved some recognize for this bolt prediction. . yeah, congrats on this prediction, and congrats to Liverpool on first trophy this season, it isn't even started properly, and they started their counter my bet was down, but had another one on goals, that were good, so positive zero in the end nevertheless, good football after some time, and it could bring another good season

Who else going to start the season with a big bang on Community Shield? I know I am. Over 3/1 odds too! ~snip
I am on the other side of this bet, City has troubles with Liverpool last seasons, but I think that this season will be different will be interesting to see line-ups before the match, but my beer money is on City to win the match (it is value bet @2.35) it is raining today, and this one should light the day, with great football

Don't matter of course, but still something to chew on for those who haven't put picks in.
yeah, my picks do not seem aligned with practice results as well, but I am not changing them in my experience within these few pool's seasons, whenever I change my initial picks, it does not went good, usually losing points (in football pools it is either not exact score, since I entered goal to winning team, or complete miss), and in F1 I did not revised any pick so far, what initially places is left there to hang

The competition is quite fierce nowadays: Medvedev, Kyrgios, Tsitsipas, Sinner, Thiem, Zverev,...
I do not see these players as fierce competition, especially not one able to fight with Alcaraz would even argue that generation with Berdych, Del Potro, Soderling, Cilic, Wawrinka was much better and won few GS with Federer, Djokovic, Nadal in their prime nowadays, that fierce competition cannot win GS, even with Djokovic and Nadal in their 35's, Alcaraz is the one to dominate it

second round starts tonight, with a game between last year second team in the league, Royal Union and current leader Charleroi
while home win is widely expected, Charleroi is good starter team, and they are usually close to top in first part of the season, so I would probably take double chance on them Royal had great last season, but it is low level club, and I do not expect much from them this season

-snip
both of you, are you sure that Liverpool will take 2nd (or even 1st) place? why not 4th or lower?
it seems to me as well that Liverpool could finish outside of top2, but it is hard to predict who will be above them in the end (except City, they will win easily, IMO) Arsenal looked great against Chelsea, but it is friendly and does not mean a lot, but could indicate that they could finish top4 this season maybe United is that missing piece, you never know with them, just looking at 2020/21

Anyone want to hazard a guess at next seasons Caponieri or whatever Golden Boot (yeah, on mobile, can't be bothered to look it up)?
i'm gonna go with a super bold prediction: top scorer will be either Benzema or Lewa,, i know i know, no one saw that coming 🤭 -snip looking at friendlies, would not count out Dembele for next season, somehow I do not believe in Lewa/Barca mix, and he is too old to fight with youngsters Benz is top for Real, on the other side, and it is hard to foreseen other club forwards to get that title overall, @2.2 Lewa is not value pick, IMO
