I haven't checked the spreadsheet yet, but I feel bad the my opponent didn't deem it fit to give me a couple of head start, I would have appreciated a 2-3 nil head start, so why you gotta do me like that, huh ?

Best of luck anyways mate.

I didn't even bother check if either of the tennis finalists I picked were supposed to have a match before the end of the deadline, lol, that'd be some blow and disadvantage if one of them is out already.

Heh. We had the same answers so today is not of interest to us both. Freebet points in play but Spain let us down... McTominay who would have thought?

Tsitsi final would have been my pick a couple of tourneys ago but I have given up on the Greek. Great call though, he just has to overcome Medvedev... So we might even know the winner of that question before the final.

The spreadsheet is visible now.

DireWolfM14 did not submit yet so darxiaomi's answers are hidden.

Good luck!

Just wondering this, is there any chance to actually edit my #10 answers as I only put two names that will make it to the final without putting any name for the winner. Well if it couldnt be changed then its fine for me as well no biggie

@igebotz : best of luck to you although I really need to win this. Heck yeah, I just realized that even if I win this round then I'd still be on #11  . This is what I get for being so lame on this league

I didn't realize that you skipped that section of the tennis questions, but since it's a head-to-head question and we both chose the same answers, you might still gain something out of it. Nevertheless, I will only earn additional points if I correctly predict the winner.  no editing option. I'm glad the UEFA qualifiers is finally over.

Miss luck is not on my side in this one, i just have to get better next season.

MCTommmy is single-handedly cooking Spain...... that's a guaranteed stating lineup for him against Newcastle this weekend!


Edit

Modric getting another standing ovation from both the Turkey and Croatia fans, the end is near! who is wearing that big shoe now Kovasic?

Nope, sorry :/ unfortunately we have to draw the line somewhere and when submitted the answers are final.

Hahah, exactly what I thought. I have him in there.

Time for me to reveal my ideal starting lineup against Newcastle. The only positions where I think there might be some difficulty are the RB (Wan-bissika vs. Dalot) and right wing (Anothy vs. Sancho). I chose both wan-bissika and Antony because they have both recently been playing a lot more minutes than the other two.

Code:

Degea, Wan bissika, Varane, Martinez, Shaw, McTommy, Fred, Antony, Bruno, Rashford, Weghost.

Rashford and Varane are back to full training.

We have the exact same lineup prediction except for McTominay. I put in Sabitzer in there but Sabitzer scored two goals as well though so chances are actually not that bad that he might be starting.  This could be a potential tie for us if Ten Hag decided to put both Sabitzer and McTominay as starter then bench Fred lol we'll see

Yikes oh well

Just to inform you guys that free bet for Div 3 is mine in this round. I can already see a perfect 10 out of 10 coming now when I am free in this round. I knew I was free and I answered all my questions except NBA one from the head without giving it a moment of thought. Had to google NBA one since I don't even know who plays for those clubs 

[slaman29]

arallmuus but if I am not mistaken Sabitzer is injured though right, always there is someone to pay the price during Euro or world cup or worse, Nations League lol

anyway, Spain breaks my heart, as usual, but well done to Scotland. And Turkey, well, I don't know why I chose them when I have been going against them, I just thought Croatia was going to make another mistake...

I really can't guess Erik Ten Haag thought process, but I don't think he'll want to risk Varane this soon, so I went with Maguire since, Maguire played in the international matches so it gives better chances of being match fit, of course, I know ETH doesn't like Maguire, but with Man United playing twice in 3 days and the other match is supposedly a home fixture against Brentford, I want to believe Brentford and Newcastle looks to be of equal threat or form right now and Varane wouldn't be rushed to play. I couldn't pick another to pair with Fred and McTominay, so I went with Bruno, while having Rashford, Sancho and Anthony all upfront, also because I couldn't settle for just one of Sancho and Anthony for Werghost, because Rashford is also still a doubt for the game, and if he doesn't play that leaves room for both Sancho and Anthony to start, I guessed Rashford would be favourite pick so if he doesn't play, I have little to lose and If he does and then I'm sure I'd also have one of Anthony or Sancho right, perhaps as have been the case recently, so deciding between Sancho or Anthony for Werghost doesn't seem necessary to me.

Just few hours after my previous post here, Tsitsi-pass decided to pass on ATP Miami tournament 😒; Just a question if both opponents picks do not make tennis finals, does the player that advances the most in the tournament gets the advantage in the H2H question?

Nope. We are grading only your answers in final. So you can get from 0 to max 3 points in your H2H duel.

[darxiaomi]

Well yes about the Manutd starting line up... its really difficult to know because ETH its a manager who really cook all the games in a diferent way so, he can think against X team i need more defensive players and i will play whit Martinez who its faster and bla bla so its really difficult to know who its gonna play.

He its not like the old era coachs who bring always the same team at the pitch and make always the same changes.


About Mctomminay, what a guy, he is a butcher but also have a lot of goals scored. When i put 1/2 goalscorer from the same team i never was thinking about Scotland and less about him 

[cryptofrka]

So, let me share the result regarding the logos question:



Considering that most of you want it, we'll try to accomodate you.

@joker_josue, can you please let us know exactly what would be needed for this to work and be visible in the league tables?

For those that do not submit logos we will create a default one.

[notblox1]

Rashford and Varane are back to full training.

That doesn't mean they will both start the game as staring eleven and I don't think Varane will start but let's wait and see.
Rashford just had a knock and I think he missed England national team match so there is higher chances he will start this match and leave earlier if Man United secures win.

It was really surprising for me seeing that Spain lost from Scotland and they didn't even score a single goal, but I am hoping better results in next few days, so I can take lead against dbshck

Oh, alright..

That means Medvedev still have 2 chances, one in the quarter-finals and the semi-finals he had better not let me down  

About Mctomminay, what a guy, he is a butcher but also have a lot of goals scored. When i put 1/2 goalscorer from the same team i never was thinking about Scotland and less about him  

That makes two of us, I wasn't even really in onto this international fixtures, If anyone had even asked me McTomminay's nationality, I wouldn't have remembered he's Scottish, and that's if even had any idea to begin with, but I know what the squad's options are with Sabitzer out and Eriksen barely an option, and Garnacho can't be an option either.

Sabitzer is out injured and wont be available for 3-4 weeks and that's -1 point for you, now you have 10 points left. advantage me

Not a bad strategy for you, I may have doubt for other positions but Werghost is starting, he is the only natural number 9 available, his work rate has been impressive since he joined the team, and he is also the reason Rashford is getting more scoring chances. He is a top target man in the squad, and he is the perfect example of Giroud. These players don't score more frequently, but they create a lot more space up front for the wingers to operate. BUT............

________________+++++++++++++++++++++++___________________

Before the international break, ETH stated that Varane's injury was not serious and that he would be given some time to heal before the forthcoming match. Moreover, Varane trained extremely well today with no signs of pain. He will likely start before Manguire, in my opinion.

Rashford and Varane are back to full training.

That doesn't mean they will both start the game as staring eleven and I don't think Varane will start but let's wait and see.

We are both speculating aren't we?? hahahah......................  

[buwaytress]

Ditto on above discussions, also why I opted for Maguire instead of Varane. Too big a game, and Maguire will be pissed at his Euro sending off, enough to be fit and motivated. I put Elanga down instead of Antony, because I feel like he impressed in the last game (3 minutes, 1 goal haha) and maybe ETH will want fresh legs against brutal Toons. Also, someone only LFC_Bitcoin also picked... very pleased to have a like-minded genius/idiot in this BSFL hahaha.

Harko you did put "Anthony" there, so... is that also Elanga or a typo of Antony? If so, then we only have Dalot/AWB as a different answer...

Just saw that Harko, haha, I tell you, give up on Tsiti. He was my one hope for a shakeup seasons past but I think we have to move on now. To whom, I don't even really know really. Of the "new crop", I liked the Russians but now Rublev and Medvedev are supposed to be in their prime and going nowhere consistent, I even maybe am growing to like Alcaraz a little, Sinner at times is Djoko-like and Rune is maaaaybe a Haaland of tennis but maybe I'm old or no longer easily excited but I don't feel any strong liking for anyone in tennis right now.

Caveat: I hardly follow tennis and only watch big games, so my bias is extreme =)

Oh gosh



I didnt really watch the game but I checked flashscore, he was listed in subsitutes as well so I thought everything was fine with him. Well given this circumstances, its hard to even dream that Sabitzer might start against Newcastle. Question #3 wont matter to any of us I guess because we got the same answer 

[notblox1]

Did anyone with a lot of free time watched today match of Champions League Woman quarter final match?
Barcelona smashed Roma with 5-1 result and we have two more matches matches played tomorrow, but just now I saw that I didnt utunderstand question number 3 correctly.
I was thinking the question was how many matches will be played with 1-0 result, now I see it was for both teams scoring

There is no men football today and tomorrow, so, it's good chance to pay some attention to WCL. Barca is just different level team, Roma didn't stand a chance against them. I hope that Alexia Putellas finally will return from injury for the semifinals. With her Barca would have big chances to win WCL. In other game, Arsenal also looked like much better team than Bayern.
I predicted BTTS in 3 games, so tomorrow I need that both games would end with such outcome.

Yeah, tennis isn't for everyone, especially when some games can be played for 3 hours and more. Can't say that I watch it in detail, but I often turn it on in background to follow what's going on. What really makes me sleep is most of American sports like NBA or NHL. Not sport itself, but all these frequent and extremely long commercial breaks . And fact that most of their games is palyed when it's night in Europe also doesn't helps.

[ralle14]

I also had Sabitzer in my prediction I wasn't aware that he's injured but at least both of us had him so we'll be both starting at a disadvantage.  

On the bright side, my BTTS prediction is holding up nicely still need one more as I need exactly two for the point, and a bit excited to see how the Bucks-Celtics game will turn out later today.

[Woodie]

Need some clarity on a few things that have come up....

• For us who are in division 3, how are free bet points allocated when you are playing against yourself as certain questions, scores are based on head to head scores?
• Secondly, as the games progress I think 15 rounds of the competition is going to be unfair for some players as others are likely to play more games than others looking at the number of players in each group.
  
  By using the formula [(n-1) x2] for home and away games, where n represents the number of players in each group, so for divisions 1 and 2 which has 12 players, the number of games to be played is 22 that's for home and away and for 1 legged games this is going to be limited to 11 rounds, and division 3 games to be played is 10 games for 1 leg while home and away means having 20 game weeks. Do we still maintain the 15 game weeks for season 1.?
• Lastly if its not too much work, is it possible to have an extra column for division 3 to show the free week each player to show how many times one has been free.
• Btw when getting promoted do we carry over the points we had or points will be reset when going to the next division?
