I have no idea as why Tuchel prefer James at the CB, and Loftus-Cheek at RB, and their forward lines pretty much unpredictable too, that's literally why I don't have single guy from Chelsea and It might stay that all season long.


I guess I will stick with Trent Alexander-Arnold for now, at least for a few weeks more, not because I'm expecting better points from him and fwiw I could have him bench while going for an extra midfielder to make it a 3-5-2 sqaud, the primary aim when having a defender is provided they have a chance of keeping a clean sheet and Liverpool's defense is awful right now and their defensive midfielders are barely providing the backline with any sort of relevant help so while my wild card is still yet to be used and I'd rather not waste a transfer on another/double defenders just yet. I've got another idea of what I want my team to look like for next game 2-3 weeks.

I did pretty well in the first game week but, it's been down the hill in the last two game weeks as well.

There are quite a number of things that I believe are affecting Liverpool's performance and the injuries is playing its part I'd agree, but the midfield is the first problem I believe is not very functional and Arnold needs a lot of assistance because he also often drops into the midfield position as usual which is why he's being less effective on the flank, and he's position in the defense is being targeted. Van Dijk is also not the best players in 1v1 situation and he's not the best at covering up for his partners in the CB position either so he's need another defender that could take up the those duties while he sticks to his area duels and physical matchups. Salah also needs a Mane-esque partner that will help get the 85-90% attention focused personally on him and forget about injuries woes, Liverpool really does needs a fresh pair of legs, if not two more in the midfield Milner and Elliot aren't going to cut it as their back up plan for an entire season, and let's assume Naby Keita and Thiago get back from their injuries, you can rely solely on these guys for a 50+ games stretch of the whole season including all other competitions.

Aren't Leicester City overplaying their hands to keep hold of Wesley Fofana who's clearly interested on leaving, and with £70Million then several addons for Centre Back who's only 21 years old, man I don't know, but I think they really should let him off, I don't he's worth the stress and they'd get some value and if not someone better plus loads of cash to spare.


Looking at how fit Aubameyang his, I'd say he's still got some 2-4 years at the current level he's performing at, I mean you're willing to well over £50m for Gordon (barely average imo) and having £70m+ rejected for Fofana but they think around 30m (euro) is too much for Aubameyang, well fuck me if they didn't £97.5m for Lukaku around a year ago and who couldn't even live up to the standard they expected of him, and the advantage with Aubameyang deal is that he's spent years before working with Tuchel.

I don't think any of the results were really surprising but I was pretty much expect anything between Crvena Zvezda and Maccabi Haifa, this is the best tie of this round, and at least we can finally move past the tiring series of qualifiers every other week and look forward to the Group Stage draws and competition proper itself.

Yeah, I got mine too, I happened to be browsing through yesterday's fixtures when I saw them and I used 'em all already


After the 3 nil win over Sassuolo, I thought it was going to been quite predictable season for Juventus, I wasn't expecting an easy run though, but It's rather too early to be throwing these points away.

Napoli on the other hand seem to be coming for blood this season, 9 goals scored in just two games.

Big Grats! That's freaking huge man! and to be freaking honest, that's some guts you've got! Not especially considering how shitty Man United have been, did you get some clairvoyant's tipoff or perhaps some inside information, because logically, this looks quite beyond some just "giving it a shot thingy" 

It was a completely shitty week for me though, I had just 3 points from 10 games, never have I ever had it this low if I recall correctly.

It was just a knock and It seems Guardiola trust him more now than to pair both Stones and Dias together, and more especially the kinda goals they conceded all which were after he got subbed out, I think I'd still leave him in for the next game week, until he's fit and I'm sure Guardiola his only choosing to bench him... furthermore, at least you ended up with more points than you'd have had if you had gone for Liverpool defender or that of Chelsea.


I mean, I just had to quote myself, I could say I saw this coming from a mile away, but that still didn't stop Salah from getting a goal anyways, he saved the day for a lot of folks. With Liverpool drawing the first two first to losing to the worse team in the league after to games, isn't that some sort of trouble in paradise ?

Anyone that have stayed clear off Liverpool's defenders and Alisson would by a huge margin better off, so much for spending those shit loads of fortune on Arnold and Robertson, perhaps It's high time I ditched Robertson too at least Liverpool begin to get their shits together.

It was a complete bloodbath with my predictions too, I went completely off the railroad with most of them, just way too may upsets from one week, I could only get 2 close result outcome and 3 points in total  well having just 4 people on double digits show have averagely shitty the week is for almost everyone.



Would anyone get near even Man United to score at least a goal today ?, Let alone go all out for a Man United win, that'd be tough. I'm of the opinion that this will be a low scoring game even if Liverpool secure the full 3 point and regardless of Man Utd's goal conceding records in their last 2 games.

I was never in doubt that the goals will eventually keep falling for Lewandowski, it was just a matter time and now here go! Lewandowski has got every skill set that's needed to consider a player an elite one, he's runs, dribbles and powerful heading and also ability to score goals with relative ease even within tight circumstances.

Despite the early goal from Barcelona, they squandered the advantage just a couple of minutes later, Real Sociedad were the better side of the first 45 minutes as Barcelona looked clueless for most of that half, but everything changed in the 2nd half after Ansu Fati was subbed in, He had great communication with Dembele and Lewandowski up the pitch which made the 2nd half really easier.

I think, I'll take Haaland scoring just a goal over going blank any day, He really could have scored a whole more today to be honest, from hitting the woodwork after a stunning save from Pope, and then to De Bruyne and Foden not being to find him about a few yards away from them with what could have been to easy tap ins. Not an extraordinary game week for me so far, but I'm good with having almost twice the average for the week, while still having and Salah for Liverpool later tomorrow. I wouldn't mind Salah going blank or at least not scoring more points than Haaland for this week.

I really don't want to provoke lady luck by having the first laugh on Chelsea because I really don't want any upset for City too, with Haaland being my captain. I was really getting pissed by thinking Chelsea would keep Rodrigo harmless but then he's just something else, however Trossard scoring still made it somewhat fair enough that I kept my transfer, it would have been worth it to get Rodrigo though, I just might do that before the week price gets updated too if there are thousands of transfers in for him.

I'm saving my it's Haaland O'clock draft... I hope it doesn't go to waste 🤞

That what I said about this being a marathon and not a sprint, I wouldn't bring any player just a for temporary basis, I surely would have felt it's worth keeping over the next few weeks, and It really sucks for anyone to have had Odegaard just to get him out at the wrong time, but I still wouldn't consider him a smart buy for a long time, it's just like me having Perisic, he didn't start the first game and was only a sub in the second week (although he still got an assist) but I felt I need to let one go of him or Matty Cash and I had to choose Matty Cash simply because he doesn't serve long time profit for me imo and Perisic is finally paying dividends, the only pain being in my sub right now is Andreas Pereira, man's always getting above the least point on my team, and today he's got 8  

I decided to go with Haaland for this week, I really didn't know why I didn't settle for Jesus though, but It just didn't feel right with me, I chose not stick with Salah too, I know Man United defense is all shambles right now, but I hate to think that Man Utd might start to get things right and that lost to Brentford could have been the turning point. All I need from Guardiola is just to let him have the complete 90 minutes on the pitch, I'm sure Haaland will sort the rest out.

I think I've also said this before, other sites use what they called a "close result" system instead of the "goal difference" system. The close result rule makes better sense than goal difference rule, at least that's my own opinion. I don't see why someone who predicted a score like 7-6 should get more points than some one who predicted 2-0, if the final score is 2-1, from a logical point of view, it would seem really absurd if a 7-6 prediction is considered closer to 2-1, than a 2-0 because of the goal difference, but since it's their house, so therefore it's also their rules and should be respected.

€100 million for Antony would be absolutely nuts, and I think that he's extremely overvalued for that price, I don't think he's a better player than Barcelona's new recruit Raphinha, I'm not trying to lowball his talent or potentials but It might just turnout to be another Depay-esque deal for Man United, I'd rather they go for well established players in that position, If Chelsea could get Sterling around 47 million pounds, and players like Luis Diaz for around that same value, I really don't see Antony being worth anywhere near that value, but desperate times calls for desperate measures, I guess.

Yeah, especially players that are naturally strikers but listed on FPL as midfielders, Salah, Martinelli, Rodrigo and so on, and the best part is you get 1 point more if they should compared to what are awarded to strikers and you also get an additional point if the team keeps a clean sheet. That's where having De Bruyne become essential, though I don't have him in my team yet (and would have stick to the Man City double at the back line until they start conceding goals in consecutive games. I'm also very tempted to use my free transfer for this week to bring on Rodrigo, but I don't want sto risk it vs a Chelsea defense which might be too much for him to thrive against.

I'll expect a more conservative game between Man Utd and Liverpool, so I'm not totally expectant of Salah to explode, but the only about very certain thing is that ceteris paribus, Salah would be on the pitch for 90 minutes, but Haaland might not get past 70-75 minutes. I'm yet to decide on my options and Gabriel Jesus is still well a considerable option for me at this point.

A number of deals have also been completed over the course of this week that I'm considering to bank on when I'm playing my wild card...

It looks like Casemiro to Man Utd seems very close to done deal already, even though it is yet to be officially announced, Fabrizio Romano reported that "Ancelotti have excluded Casemro from Real Madrid team for tomorrow clash against Celta Vigo and that Casemiro have already made known his decision to leave the club and try a new challenge.."

While that'd be a great addition to the Man Utd squad, I believe there are still positions within the team that also need proper attention, especially the forward line.
