When the game was 2-1 for Manchester City a draw could occur if United fight back but right now at the 71 minute they are leading 3-1 and it will be very difficult for any other result than a win for Manchester City.

Arsenal game was beautiful to watch as although it looked like Arsenal totally dominated the game,the Arsenal goalkeeper was the hero of the day by saving at least nearly 5 shots on goal from Watford.Watford strangely enough kept playing and believing that they could draw and that made the game beautiful.

City win was expected, and in the right moment for them and Arsenal as well

Arsenal won over Watford puts them in great position, looking at CL spot fight, and that would be real success for Gunners, bearing in mind what is a competition for the spot
Tottenham looks more serious than United, as a contender

now that he's back in the starting 11, the Man utd weekly defensive blunder also makes a comeback! srsly, never doubt him, he always delivers  💪

Great week of results for me, didn't even really check but I think I recalled that I went for some broke predictions and it worked out. Week after week I was dropping places and finally managed to regain some of the spots I previously was at. Such a tough thing this pool yes?

But this is a super big week once more so there is a chance for a lot of people to get full slam points. So the round looks weird now because many favorites hit.

Feel bad for the guy personally. He probably knows he doesn't deserve the captaincy, but what else can you do, refuse to wear it? No, actually, I take that back, I don't feel bad for him at all. You can't have an excuse for flailing about like comedians and getting a yellow for playing farmer football.

Shame on me for being surprised at how quickly United capitulated heh.

all that we can do now is to support Arsenal, as our favorite bookmaker team
it would be great to see them at position four, instead of United, three games down and point up, should that be enough or what?

although, I am more leaned to relegation fight, and keeping Everton in Premier league, this one is really bad

I noticed that you got 13.5 points, this is a very important achievement, and if you succeed in achieving some points from the remaining matches, you will be the champion for this week and get a visa from Ambassador steve 

Today we have the Tottenham match, which managed to break CITY's superiority and reduce the points difference to 6 against the injured Everton, and is threatened with relegation if he continues to achieve negative results.

And Tottenham remain in the hunt for Juventus Bosman prospect Paulo Dybala. Do you think that Tottenham will get this special player?

[darxiaomi]

I really was pissed off with the last City goal. i put 3-1 and that goal detroy my "exact" prediction.

For the love of god!!!!! Please stop the hype in Dybala, im Argentinian and i can say to all the people he is a "coldchest" (idk how you say this in english). And the Totenham its a FREEZER team always  losing in the big times. You can clearly see how bad can be this union.
An example, they go to a semifinal or final and lose all the times.

Yes he is an "amazing" player but its not a top star.

Arsenal 4th? United Conference? Amen.

Actually, I threw in a LOT of 3-1 predictions this week all over the league, and Serie A and La Liga haha. Watford also ruined my exact 3-1 Arsenal. And also late on!

Tottenham is "freezing" to a 5-0 lead ATM by the way. Kane on a hattrick, poor Lamps and poor Everton (not). Ha ha.

P.S. Now I know where you're from. Choker perhaps is what you're looking for?

I think Dybala needs to play a whole lot more than he has played at Juventus.In Italy coaches are well known for their hard mind when they decide that a player no matter how good should not play 90 minutes although when they enter the pitch they score.In England there is a completely different mentality and I think Dybala would be a great addition to Tottenham in aid to Harry Kane,we should see a lot of improvement in the attacking department of Tottenham if they manage to get Dybala.

And I noticed you was the only one in the entire pool to get a close score on the Spurs game, did you know something we didn't? What surprised me more about Spurs winning by such a large amount is Everton losing by so big, after being robbed of their City draw by VAR.

Many games to go in this round though as there are FOUR more games it's a big round, if I get yellow cap I'll be VERY happy. I think this is the best I've ever done in a round so far, 9/10 correct outcomes (but only 1 exact).

To be honest, I think everyone in the pool thought Everton wasn't going to score in the match against Hot Spurs.
Even on my betslip I put  Tottenham to have more than 2.5 goals.
Wish I put them to have the over 4.5 goals for a better result. But Ulven had the closest with 4-0 score. So congrats on the hindsight for the match!
If they want to keep the momentum alive they certainly need someone like Dybala to stir things up in the line up.
Son & Kane can't do it all.
Mosala in the pool while checking his perfect scores were the same as his result scores. Which is nearing 50 (48 correct scores) is an amazing stat!
Since this is in the bitcointalk forum pool is he on the forums? Probably under another username I reckon.

There are still four matches to go for the round. If you have like huge point difference  (guessing 5 or more) with the 2nd highest point earner then you could have a chance but right now anyone with one or two exact guess can take your place. However good luck to you.

I am yet to claim my winning from the last round. Too lazy to go through the activation process of sportsbet LOL. In fact i have not tried to login yet. 😉

Apart from the captain band, he plays literally like a 3rd tier player that dont know how to defend. Most of the time he clears the ball, he literally kicks the ball randomly like an amateur and the fact that he is choosen as starting line up most of the time really confused me. If Sir Alex still manage United, pretty sure this guy is going of to loan or left out of the squad completely

I chose to go with small upset of 1 goal for this game as usual lol.

I feel like someone asked this before, the top guys are silent on this forum or have not revealed who they are. I have a hard time remembering actually unless they are users active on the pool threads

Exactly why I was saying I'll be very happy. It was sort of an "easy" round for everyone because most of the favorites got the wins as expected. And the remaining 4 games will place almost everyone in a position for full Slam points, so I think yellow cap will be the guy with most exacts at the end of the day.

You're too lazy for $50 freebet? So you don't gamble anymore?

yeah, I think that he/she is not active on the topic, but have great picks
there is less participants in other pools, but I did not noticed that he is active there

maybe Trofo knows is he active in our pool side competition, for La Liga and Calcio?

back to topic, four matches tomorrow, Chelsea is in action, all others could go on each side?

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

I don't think I will be interested to watch any of the match but will check the score for the sake of the picks I made on the pool but on Saturday we have Brighton - Liverpool and we need 3 points, any mistake will cost us the title.

Anyway, against the bottom team so far, Chelsea should have score half a dozen goals 😉. In fact in their last head to head they were managed to score 7 goals and conceded none. Well just too lazy to check my pick on the pool but I think tomorrow I will go for a big win for Chelsea. Not going to give you all the pick now LOL

Hey look, I will be happy if you get the yellow cap but i will be happier if you get it by 0.5 points margin than me 🤣
I need few good rounds to get back a position in the top 5 LOL

If I am not mistaken (I have to go back to few pages) Steve or jeremy said it's 0.001 BTC and to give my username. So it's close to $45 considering the btc market. Yeah, I am not gambling from last over 6 to 8 months. My SB account is disabled due to inactivity.

I Used to gamble a lot back in the days, in around 2011-2012. I even asked paddy power and bet365 to disable my accounts which they did. But despite that when I had chance I used to go to bookies and would spend money for no reason. Then after the help of my family and close friends I was able to give up the addiction and was completely sober from gambling. After several years I started again but that time I was just doing it for fun and had full control on myself. With SB and some other crypto casinos I was continuing. Lose-win as the cycle of gambling. But then I think I got bored. Did not feel to gamble at all and still I can say that I have no excitements to claim that free bet and put it in a bet slip LOL. To be honest, this is the reason that I have not contact back or even tried to recover my SB account. Maybe some day I will have mood and reactive the account.  🤪

Round 28 still up for grabs, with 4 games tomorrow to decide who wins this round's coveted Yellow Cap!

Its still all open in this round. Too many intresting matches and i think it will be hard to predict,except maybe Chelsea. Im in 10th position but 3 points is the difference also im missing 1 winning match from another slam point and if everything plays out right i can maybe look for first place,but its hard to predict matches where anyone can win

Well if the reward's in BTC then yeah it's going to be hard to get an exact amount, sometimes it's worth more and sometimes it's worth less depending on price but the yellow cap reward is $50 freebet. A lot of money to me and I'm sure it's at least worth a nice dinner for even someone in a high living cost country

Paddy Power ads are so cool, sometimes I see them watching livestream. I always thought you were in Asia actually, I always wondered about the experience of going into a bookie to place bets. On TV you only see people do that for horse racing usually. OR in casinos with sports.
