Costly missed pen. 

Barely 7 minutes + stoppage time left on the clock, Man Utd need to win this game with 1 - 2, I need those 3 points for the pool, It's been an awful week.

When they got the pen. I felt good about my 1-3, hah. But again, this is why we love this sport innit?

Agreed!
Man U are too slow and too inexperienced as a whole . They’ll be top 6 , but I think we’ll have to wait until next year to be viable title contenders!

I had prediction United to win 2:1. I backed them because I thought that Wolves might focus on upcoming Europa league qualifier against Torino on Thursday. Not a best schedule for them - match against MU on Monday and against Torino on Thursday.
It was terrible week for me - I got just 5 points in total and dropped by 9 positions to 15th place. But still, long way to go, I hope that I still can recover.

I'm not sure what to go with but I don't think I'd back them to win. Maybe a draw or 1-2 to United. Haven't made my mind up yet but this could be one of those games where the gamble on going for the shock could pay off. Or not.

Oh, and thanks to buwaytress for sponsoring both the pools.

ManU winning by at least 2 goals tonight, for sure for sure .

You were saying?  It seems a lot of people backed the draw last night and most at 1-1. I did think about changing it to 1-2 but glad I stuck to my guns this time. Nice to see both Manchester's dropping two points from this round.

Costly missed pen. 

Not for me. Thanks Pogba for the 3 points  .

I didn't do that great either really. Got 6 nul points but 2 close and 2 correct scores from the last two games, which was just enough for me two creep back into first. Had I not got the last two right it would have been a disastrous round.

Man Utd are a bit of a disaster at times aren’t they. Fergie left and the ass literally fell out from underneath them
They’re a massive club so they will come good again but it’s going to take time.

I think people are reading too much into this game. They were superb in the first half and it's not like Wolverhampton are a bottom half team.. 1-1 is not too bad, should have been 1-2 but sometimes that's just the way the cookie crumbles. I think we can see ManU in top4

1st & 2nd - Not sure which order but City & Liverpool
3rd - Spurs
4th - Arsenal or Man Utd

I think Chelsea will finish 6th due to not being able to sign anybody & losing Hazard.

[buwaytress]

Man... I backed Spurs 3-2, Chelsea 2-1 (but bet on Leicester) and Wolves 2-1... and all these guys ended up in draws. Hindsight tells me the draws were the smarter bet, but then no risk no glory, right?

I'm 26th, but happy lots of teams dropped points. Who'd have thought after 2 games, only 2 teams had 6 points eh? I know, it's only Norwich and Southampton but we meet that other 6-point team in Week 3, so there will at best only be 1 team with 9 points after 3 games. Is this season already shaping up to be competitive? You bet.

You're welcome =D It's a small site with a small team but we're proud of what we're building. I'd love to be able to put up bigger sponsorships next season, let's see shall we?

This was the safest prediction, followed by a draw. Most individuals (including myself) thought united could pull it off after their impressive display against Chelsea. Something tells me Wolves will be able to replicate last season display against top 6 teams. After that miss from Pogba, I asked myself why didn't Rashford take the penalty, thought I saw him moving towards the ball but guess since Pogba was responsible for the fowl, he insisted on taking it. We can't blame him though even the bests misses penalty. Wolve did deserve something from match and I'm glad they got it although it cost me.

Costly missed pen. 

Prolly downing tools again...  I'm not kidding.  I really have a strong feeling Pogba hasn't been playing to his full potential on purpose.

Had no idea you were a part of a team running a crypto news site. Good luck man (imagine thumbs up emoticon here)


I had 1:1 for Man Utd game in Superbru and then changed it to 2:2 few minutes before the match started. I will really have to start locking my picks.

I am happy as first Exact result in my account and now feeling very good as I can do more better in coming weeks even now I am still out of top 10 but this is going to be very interesting. 

[BitcoinSupremo]

In the first week I forgot to put my predictions on, but on this second one I have the yellow cap as the best player.

Please forget this week as well  . No, this is what it’s all about as the season goes on, it makes football all that little bit more interesting

The first impression is usually the right one.  The first pool I took too seriously, I sucked.  The second pool I just copied whatever Lawro predicted, he sucked.  This time I'm just going with my gut (my gut sucks?).  Lol.  

[Mbitr]

Another interesting match tonight. Really could go either way imho. Villa have to get something out of tonight’s game or the pressure will really start. A few people have done their picks yet. LESS THAN 12 HRS TO GO ! Get picking .

[buwaytress]

I had so much hopes for the Villains. Two weeks of speculative guesses... but I should have been slightly more conservative and backed draws instead of outright upsets.

Third time lucky this week? Or will I go for more reasonable results?

We call it team but it's really a group of close friends. I've got a lot going on in my life, we all do, but I guess I have to admit I got a huge thing for Bitcoin. Whenever I'm free I'm reaching out to people on the ground, always ready to talk to them about their stories. Outside all the chatter about price and what not, there are many amazing stories about people all over the world getting first-hand experience with bitcoin and other stuff.

Thanks for the wishes =D

My days!
Just realized I missed to pick in superbru for this week which means I missed to pick in this match too. These days, too busy in real life. I may need to find some times to finish my picking for rest of the matches of this round.

Anyway, I am going to follow the match score. I do not think I have the time to watch the match. Still 0 - 0 after 10 minutes.

Good luck to all with your picks.

I think its bad miss today as I check its mixed by many members now after just 20 minutes Villa score first goal of match hopefully they will do good as they need to do in this match

If I were to pick then I would go for Everton to win by 1 - 2 margin but I highly think that this match could be a draw match.

Aston Villa lost their first match and the last one was against Bournemouth in the home match. They will not easily give up and lose points. But it's not easy for the to stop Everton too. Since they already got a goal, my guess is that they will try harder to hold it this way.
