The shit just keep getting worse force, Pervis Estupinian is out injured to
Very terrible, He will use up my free transfer this week. That's if he doesn't further drop significantly in prize before that and mess up your incoming intended transfer, I personally would have gone Trippier, but then Trippier already increased from the initial 6.7 to 6.8, and I think the hype or the form might be temporary so I'll just stick to budget for now and avoid unnecessary tinkering that'd end up costing me to take more points hit. |

Damn, not so bad for me in the 2nd pool though, I just see I'm 4th on the leaderboard, meanwhile in SuperBRU even with an electron microscope, I'm still pretty much not visible  But It's still just matchday two, I believe it will equally be tougher to climb up the rank here when you supposedly have a lead the need to get conservative sets in, and 10 points in any match day will be almost enough to keep your pace alive. |

I thought i'll only get one or two points in the last six matches and then the late goals came in for Lazio and Man City giving me six points for both exact score.  I gained a lot of ranks in the Superbru leaderboard but not so much in the odds-based leaderboard.  I learned my lesson after trusting PSV too much to get the win at home and underestimating Sevilla to show up on the road. I also have my own biggest mistake too, that's trusting PSG to win the battles of European Biggest Idiots, Newcastle looked literally like a team from the England National Division against AC Milan, and I felt such team can easily get preyed upon by PSG managed by clueless Jose Enrique. I've not seen a utterly disgusting match, that's from my choice perspective though, but if I didn't have any sort of alliances, I'd have enjoyed the match. |

Alvarez and Doku rested for City so I guess they are starting next week. Newcastle playing everything they got and having a lead against PSG. Good work so far but I feel like they will burn out around New Year. Not with Dan Burn at defence, it will take more than the new year to get this team burnout, they probably one of the best 3 squad depth in the league so except Eddie Howe can't manage the team properly they'll should do just fine to hang around, the form might that's for sure, just looking at their squad depth, if they're doing this okay with their best players from last season not even participating at their fullest yet, a healthy Newcastle side will be a force to reckon. ____________________________ The shit just keep getting worse force, Pervis Estupinian is out injured to |

For me it looks a bit strange that Antwerp is so clearly favoured against Shakhtar, I don't see their advantage. Especially considering their recent performance - 3 0:0 games in a row in Belgian league and getting completely destroyed by Barca few weeks ago. I'm glad to have had my stake on Shakhtar Donetsk but not all, I have the rest on PSG, however 6 points almost 4 Odds is enough for right now, especially with how the win came about, Shakhtar being 2 goals down at halftime and 3-2 up, but still conceded a penalty with what would have been the last kick of the game, thankfully Toby Alderweireld couldn't convert the chance. |

I hate to say we might have to start playing catch up from the next round, well this is going to be fun, I just need to go all in against Barcelona or Man City the rest of the game week, I might get lucky on a 20+ points, I guess the pace and the bar have been raised high by some gutsy and lucky snows.

United lost to Galatasaray. Erik ten Hag's sacking must be imminent. I've never seen Manchester United play so badly, especially after selling Fred to Fenerbahce, and I'd say there's been a general lack of performance from them. If I'm not mistaken, I've staked heavily on Manchester United and Arsenal, but with both of them losing, it looks like I won't get many points this week. That’s some tough luck man! I mean Arsenal having the lead, and Man United having the as well, not just once, but twice and both teams lost the game, I had the intention of going all in on Arsenal prior but having watched Arteta gave Saka no rest against Bournemouth made me change my decision totally and would rather lose it all on upsets than a ~1.6 Odds favorite that I can’t vouch for. |

Most of the players are lowballing with their stakes on Real Madrid, there are only another player aside of me that put all 10 point on Real Madrid to win. Well If Madrid win today, its going to pay off for me because I didnt get any point last round. Another 40 minutes to go, this is pretty thrilling and its like Im betting with my entire fortune lol Looks like a bet that will pay off eventually, Real Madrid have taken the lead yet again, and we are heading into the final minutes of the game now, but it's going to be an intensive final minutes. Every single game today have its twists and turns absolutely today, Man Utd, Bayern Munich and Arsenal, every single game have been intensive and often unpredictable as well. |

We have 10 players playing in the friendly cup, that will be almost as big as the Cup Finals!
That's quite a number of us, I didn't expect more than 5 players maximum, but with the names I've seen, I'm actually not surprised at all, because I know they are regular pool participants. May the luckiest "Snow" wins |

Submitted my picks for pot B already, there's a game I really like and I placed 6 chips on that one.
Quite a risk, but I'm in a decent position and it's a game I feel will go my way.
I even think I'll take some money out of the piggy bank and place a big bet on it (10x my usual stake).
I'll tell you the game and the reasoning when the submissions are done. We probably might have the same game at heart, I also have a game I'm eyeing big time, It's not 10x Odds if that's what you're implying, but it's an underdog with tempting, I can't remember how many chip I have on that though because I submitted my pick long ago already, but it's a quite some odds and quite some chip as well, 3 maybe 4, I guess, one thing I'm sure about is that my chip are just on 2-3 games, that's if I didn't use 4 chip on the apparent upset. |

Dammit... See? I almost forgot to do my damn picks for this pool again. :/ Good thing I was looking for my SC/BW thread and came across the thread or I would've totally forgotten. I think we'll be seeing some of these clubs adjust and get a 1 - 1 draws across the board. Dunno... Feels like these midweek matches this time around are played by fatigued squads. I think I'm gonna use my whole 10 points on one bet again. A draw for United vs Galatasaray.  You probably should set an alarm and add the title of the thread for the reminder, it's very tough to keep up with all these pools without needing a reminder for a couple of them, it's easier to get reminded when there is a mobile app of the pool on your mobile device, but very easy to forget the pools that have to do filling google forms with answers and predictions. |

has anyone here discussed the hot news emerging from the transfer market rumors that Barcelona is eyeing Jadon Sancho?
I dont know what he thinks if he really leaves Man United leaving an unfinished problem and if Barcelona brings in this player there will be slight risk such as getting harsh criticism about Jadon Sancho which has not yet been resolved but Barcelona appointed this player come to Barcelona. I am not too impressed with Jadon Sancho performance because he does not have good performance and I just want that if Jadon Sancho accepts an offer from Barcelona, at least the problems at MU will be resolved immediately so that this player leaves without leaving any problems.
and regarding Jadon Sancho future at Barcelona, maybe he will have a little improvement in the talent he has because Xavi will definitely be very enthusiastic about developing this player talent so we all see whether Barcelona will really bring in Jadon Sancho. There is absolutely no chance of Barcelona signing Jadon Sancho, because the team has literally more than enough options to rotate in that position, they could afford Ansu Fati a regular playing time and had to loan him off to Brighton, just so he could get more playing time and there are players like Feran Torres and Raphinha sharing minutes, with Joao Felix being a more secured starter on the left flank. Jadon Sancho would have a lesser playing time than he would at Man United. Moreover, Barcelona doesn't have the financial capacity to sign every available on the market, I'm sure the club's priority for the season would be to make the move of Joao Cancelo and Felix permanent deals because both players are currently only on loan with Barcelona. |

We'll also hold a friendly tournament for anybody that wants to join. They play the Cup finals questions, please select the Friendly Cup option. The rules can be found below: We have friendly cup this week, rules are as follows:
* 1 mBTC entry
* winner gets all
* it is called cup, but it is actually just 10 questions that will be posted tonight. It will be simple H2H between all of us who join, with penalty to make sure we have winner
* to join just fill the questions and choose friendly cup from dropdown if you are senior member or higher rank. For lower ranks contact me on PM and I will act as escrow
* entry fees must be sent to winner, latest 48 hours after we pronounce the winner
I think I covered all and I expect at least 5 of us to play.
I'm in! I already entered my answers and saved it as draft, I'm still looking to figure out a couple of answers that appeared tricky to me, there is surely going to be a winner in this one, because the options have no safety measures at all, it's literally going to be down to just pure luck and nothing else in my opinion. |

Holy shit, team notblox1. That penalty of yours flew out of the stadium. What the hell was your star man trying to do? Maybe the mafia gave him an offer he can't refuse? Anyway - enjoy Div2 with Trofo while I dance with the big boys  We now another infamous Dr. Ben Carson (notblox1) that has successfully separated the only conjoined and inseparable Cro2 twins, he didn't even need a surgery to get that done. Trofo would surely have Igebotz to contend with for the entire season, Cryptofrka welcome to the big boys club, I hope you've learnt the rules and regulations ? you have to pay homage to your elders in the league or your stay might be short-lived  |

The winners of the Division 3 A and B playoffs are bullrun2020bro and Ozymandias_DZ!
The Cup finalists are bullrun2020bro and LFC_Bitcoin!
Uh sweet, that's amazing news. League 2 next season, yeeeeees. Can't wait honestly! And of course good luck for the cup final @LFC_Bitcoin. You will need it since I am going for this 6mBTC pot, hell yeah! @cryptofrka when will this final round be played? Cryptofrka would be glued to the TV right now on Juventus vs Atalanta, he's whole season is hanging in on that, Juventus need not to score two goals, and it's currently all looking good for him with less than 15 minutes plus stoppage time to go, but regarding the cup, it sure would hold this week, there are no free weeks. ________ @Buwaytress how about another friendly for the cup's final week ? |

 This season for the first time the most transferred player hasn't disappointed managers. Trippier managed to collect 12 points this week as well. I'm happy for transferring him in the right time. Even though I'm lucky about the Trippier topic I'm not doing well at all as for the other topics. I'm quite regretful for not using my wildcard this week.This season the defensive players in my squad have made me quite disappointed. Stones' injury, Gabriel's being in the substitutes and now Pervis Estupiñán's - points. I should have been at least 30 more points higher. I used my Wild Card a week ago, and it's my biggest regret because I feel like I need at least 5 transfers right now, and for the fact that I would have had a better point from my prior squad compared to after using my wildcard made it rather more painful, but the game is the game, you really never just can tell, it's a make hays while the sun shines situation, Mbeumo time on most team is coming to an end as we gradually approach the return of Ivan Toney. |

I knew Brighton were going to be in a lot of trouble today
Wish you gave us the warning signs as am in the negatives lol  They were bad against our shitty team in the league cup, and I knew they'd have little chance against Aston Villa this weekend with only a few days off. I replaced the only Brighton player in my lineup, and the same player scored an own goal. Watkins with 3 goals and 2 assists, fantastic start for all of us that have him in our teams.
This is what happens whenever I let go of a player. A dream TC week for Watkin owners. Douglas Luiz finally got a goal! 15 points in the bag from two Aston villa assets. The craziest things all the players that were considered a doubt for this game week so far have all played and some have made significant impact, Saka specifically, it's been 71 minutes played for him so far and Arteta is still not thinking of replacing him, despite a 3 goals advantage, then maybe the game vs Lens is where the rest will apparently come from ? It's a cold day in the office for Erling Haaland so far, he's had just a shot all game till now, are there any player or persons from the pool with a different captaincy choice other than Haaland ? |

This would be my earliest win of all time in this pool, That's If it is not a record of all-time fastest win in BSFL history, I mean when both parties have submitted in a timely fashion, have there been anyone to win a match up after the 5 games have been graded and 5 games yet to be ? If not, this should go down into the history book.
Sorry friend, you're just going to have to be content with winning against a team clearly exhausted (I don't feel sorry for them). I believe I hold that record in the penultimate game of Season 2 vs CLS63. I won the first two questions that played out in less than 4 hours after submission deadline had passed. The rest of our answers were eerily exactly the same, so I won by 2 "goals". Adding salt to your injury of losing the league title with the final shot of the season is something I relish to be quite honest, but I can tell you that my players and team camp in massively high spirit, and only stating how much of a fluke it was with them losing to your team twice in the course of the season, so they came into this fixture with a the exertion of a must win, because third time isn't going to be considered a mistake or just a mere coincidence. |

What Maddison injury? He just had a knock and he is already back in normal training as per last reports I have seen. Fully expect both him and Son to start, both were slight doubts. Same goes for Newcastle players, all should be fine except Barnes who is out for long time.
Saka is tougher one and I think he will miss this GW.
I learned about his scan yesterday, and if his manager claims he's trained and ready to play tomorrow, I'll take a chance and put him back in the lineup. Saka travelled with the squad, but I'm not concerned because I no longer have him. Playing Saka is not worth the risk, and I'm very sure Arteta would be very aware of that, Arsenal have a tough trip in the UCL on Tuesday away to Lens, after which they will host Man City next weekend, If there is any fixture that Arteta should get Saka a bit of rest to not aggravate his injury, I think we'll agree that's against Bournemouth, he might travel with squad, but he might not get more than some minutes imo, except of cause he's very fit, however, fit or not, Saka would still need a some rest, so maybe he could be on for just a 45 minutes at the max. |

So if I understand it, we're free, and taking sidebets? Who wants to play Div1 Arsenal, just tag this, 1mbtc?
Yes we are free!, and are taking friendlies (sidebets), Newcastle United Division 1 has decided to take your side bet, so you're on for 1 m BTC! Submitted as Arse-waytress in honour of my bottling the season. It is ON! I've punished my players for stumbling at the most important phase so I didn't allow them home, forcing them to play this friendly first, and early morning run so they don't get lazy. This would be my earliest win of all time in this pool, That's If it is not a record of all-time fastest win in BSFL history, I mean when both parties have submitted in a timely fashion, have there been anyone to win a match up after the 5 games have been graded and 5 games yet to be ? If not, this should go down into the history book. -------------------------------------------- @Cro2 team, It would not hurt to have a couple of the competition's record breaking feet right ? I mean details largest win, most consecutive number game won, longest unbeaten run, and just one more for the wooden spoon equivalent, for longest run without a win |
