FPL I never joined, I don't know English players at all, but even if La Liga had Fantasy I doubt I know how to play it well. Fantasy really needs you to know players, injuries, suspensions, etc I hardly can keep track. Are FPL players mainly same as BSFL/Superbru?

Mainly yes, but not exclusively. It is much more time consuming and requires you to think about it and plan about future a lot. To cover it properly it probably takes you much more time than even BSFL but on the other hand you have a lot of people specializing in giving info about it. For instance I listen to couple of youtubers while driving to work and get my info and stats about it that way.

On the other hand once you get hooked to Fantasy football, you are hooked for life and if I had to bet which pool has the most potential for growths I would pick fantasy one. It is much more knowledge based than Superbru pools for sure.

I have considered joining but this time thing is the biggest problem. I can actually come on this forum and even leave it open but it's something my office connection allows (all forums are allowed actually) and I even can get permission to access gambling which counts as games as long as it's not MMORPG which is banned but I'm not sure IT will be too happy if I keep adding more stuff. So that's not a problem but the time for sure is.

I follow La Liga a lot, but usually just focused on my team so even then I don't really follow individuals which I know is important for FPL + the entire league. Doing this for EPL is an even bigger challenge for me (less interest).

Superbru pools is the least knowledge based for sure. BSFL I would argue is even more than FPL because there are no influencers or FPL sites to just follow

Thanks again .

Yes seems like im in bless state.

In the only pool where im dropping a bit is in English one. I cant collect exact to cut the distance.

[slaman29]

@darxiaomi is an unstoppable force, everywhere I go I can't escape seeing your name but well done buddy, all deserved Just killing it even in Italian league, forza Argentina!

Me I got stuck in 10th place with KTChampions, so I need a strong week, staring tonight with Torino. Both teams doing terrible in past 8 games but I guess it should be a favorite on the home team.

GL all.

Torino started as expected, 2:0 win, and a lot of exact scores in the pool
nice way to start weekend

interesting weekend ahead, there is no especially close matches, but Cagliari is playing utterly important match against Udinese, after consecutive loses and slipping back to relegation zone, Udinese is a chance to get back up
and Cagliari had good results with Udinese this season already

I noticed on the next match Torino is the favorite also, even though it's against Lazio. Yes it's at home but I don't ever recall Lazio being favored to lose against Torino, not that my Serie A is good but this seems wrong.

I guess it's going to be a matter of of form in this case.

Juventus now dropping points 2 games in a row, could be a good time to start betting on handicaps vs them?

[buwaytress]

Hands up those who lost money on Lazio and Milan? Wonder goal from Pulisic didn't save them, when you're relying on Giroud and he to get you goals, you better be prepared to lose more games. Just didn't think Monza could get four!

Torino winning and Lazio not probably proves the bookies right. Hard sell being Lazio now, even if I tipped them for greatness a few seasons ago but the table suggests Lazio aren't as bad as form dictates (or Torino as good).

[darxiaomi]

Milan game of yesterday was a compelte non sense, after they reach a incredible and un predictable draw, they allow 2 goals in extra time from Monza.

Bad week for me this one, i put some bold ones but ended up in a failure.

Congrats to Trofo for winning the Round 25 Yellow Cap

[slaman29]

Congrats Trofo, I guess it's not so bad to pick BTTS draws sometimes in Serie A

I struggled about Lazio recalling my last posts here. Refused to believe that the bookies were correct about Torino, so I went with Lazio win, but it ended out that they even managed to keep a clean sheet.

Only a few of us got the Lazio score right, good job to us

Despite all that, I fell out of Top 10, huhu, this was my best pool so far but it looks like getting further and further away. Not giving up!!

[buwaytress]

The time I actually think Roma can score 3 goals, they also can let in 2. Had to be a late own goal too, ruining my exact score and missing out on being just half a point away from 5th. Noticed that bullrunbro got the wooden spoon, which makes our current leader Saint-loup that much harder to catch.

Not sure what I was thinking when picking Lazio to lose away, but the match's just started, so hope I was right in backing the book!

[buwaytress]

Wow. When Georgian Maradona and Osimhen are properly fit and in form, they remind us why they devastated defences everywhere. 6-1 away win, and ensuring no one comes away with more than 1 point in this game. What a way to wrap up their week. And I'm still in the running for yellow cap (yay!) only half a point behind famLFC. Doubt we've got the same score prediction, so it's going to be really worth watching if you're not on the FA Cup ties

Damn, I even forgot to put in prediction for Napoli game. Really doing proper job in the pool this season. Still don't know how I won yellow cap in last round with results that poor. Anyway my pick for tonight is 3:1 for Inter so that means Inter is loosing the game for sure.

Maybe something for you to put money on buwaytress.

quite surprising performance from Inter, 4:0 over Atalanta that is all but bad team is really great
didn't thought that they will crash them that easily

maybe it was a day for trashing, cause Napoli also scored 6 pieces over Sassuolo

sliding in the pool as always, not sure why, but I start solid in Calcio, and then simply go down with time

Congrats to BitcoinGirl.Club for winning the Round 26 Yellow Cap

[slaman29]

Pity the guys who make bold predictions and still Inter + Napoli outscored expectations and made everyone earn 1 point each, Trofo surviving on yellow cap rewards, but in the end, that could be worth it if you can't get into prizes, ending up 11-15 but with no yellow cap is still total loss.

Congrats to BitcoinGirl.Club for winning the Round 26 Yellow Cap

Congrats indeed! I feel like we see less and less of this user, was active before in EPL pool, hope everything's ok Your performance pushed you into deserved top 10, I thought I might get another chance to improve but still in 11th position, due to you and KTChampions jumping 2 spots. Getting harder every round, the key teams here are Lazio, Torino, Roma, pick their form at the right moment and it will go well.

We're aligning in our thinking a lot this week -- scary! 3:1 was also mine and I needed Atalanta to at least get a goal back to give me the Close score I needed to level with famLFC, but it was not to be. Not complaining about the points at all, 15.5 away from Saint-loup's magnificent 300 is not so bad.

I can't find historical results, Superbru career page only shows Global ranking... top 50% in my first season, then top 2% in second season, then top 40% last season. Must be an alternating pattern, so I'm winning this pool this season? Haha

Would you believe me I have very little idea about the teams in Serie A and LaLiga. I watch EPL and this year my predictions in EPL became shit. Whatever I pick, I find myself at the wrong side that's why I am not regular in the EPL thread like I used to. Even I have a side bet with CLS63 and it seems I am going to lose 0.015 BTC. Good thing about this season is Liverpool is the leader of the point table.
