Hi guys we are just a few hours away from deadline and most of us didnt submit the teams for this round yet, so here comes the tag for everyone who didnt submit.

Thank you for reminding us again, this time I almost forgot to post my predictions, but than I saw this topic.
It is so strange to see many teams that are lower class in selection for top five teams, but I think this is going to change in next few rounds.
This is not looking like easy round for me, but I had to make some selection, and it is time for me to finally win a round.
Why did you add only Monaco from French league teams?

I feel like this was the toughest pick I ever had to make. No Barca or Bayern immediately removes 2 of the favorites and a lot of others have though fitures.

Anyway, made my picks, now lets see if they are any good.

This is gonna be my last call, i know msot of you for sure already saw my last tag but just in case anyone miss it here we go again.


ROUND 4 WEEK FROM 16/10 to 19/10 [DEADLINE: START OF DEPORTIVO LA CORUÑA GAME ON FRIDAY 16/10].

Code:

slaman29

As always let me know if something is wrong or not working.

Good luck.


To be honest i agree with all of you, it was suepr hard to pick the teams for this round, the more i look around and the more research i do the more doubt i have, a lot of teams who looks good in the paper face some really tough teams in defense.

For me personally there was more difficult rounds to choose, but it only makes things more interesting. Choosing Bayern, Barca and Real each week without thinking was boring. Changes that were made this season were very healthy.
But damn, choosing team which will concede least goals is even more difficult than choosing highestscoring teams

[famososMuertos]

In this new round, the choice of a sixth team is once again a significant factor, though I don’t expect to see as many teams conceding 3 or 2 goals as we did last round. In fact, I think it’s quite possible that at least 3 teams will concede 0 goals... meanwhile, I’ve decided not to stick with the same choice I made last week—I was very close to repeating it... I don’t think that defense will hold up this week; I just hope there are no surprises.

Im not gonna lie i spend more time selecting the six team (relegation) than in the other ones, is nearby to impossible to know how that teams are gonna behave, since most of them are super bad and irregular we aim just to look into against who they play and if they are in away or home condition, in both case i dont know how much relevant that is since we dont have so much data until now to really know which choice is good or not.

While we are an on that 6th team conversation, I would actually prefer if we were looking at goal difference not just goals conceded. Seems like better and more fair metric. For instance when they play 2:2, it would be a net of 0, instead of -2. Seems counter intuitive that 0:0 is so much more valuable than 2:2.

Thanks for the tag darxiaomi, I would have forgotten this time for sure.
I was out playing with kids and I was sure I submitted days ago.

I disagree here. The competition is about goals for, so the perfect addition is goals against - not goal difference.
It's also tougher to pick the team.

I really like this addition in its current format.

Hi guys not so much time here but here it is the distribution of teams for this round!



As  expected Manchester City was the most picked team since it was the only one from top who play against a weak rival.Real Madrid also super selected.

If you ask me i like how it is distribute, is a lot of diference and most of the teams were selected at least one, only 5 teams didnt get a selection and most of them are really weak.

An expected distribution, and yet I still have questions for the person who didn’t pick City, and for the two participants who didn’t pick Real 
City have already scored two goals, and the first half hasn’t even ended yet. At Real, too, there will be those looking to pad their stats at Sevilla’s expense.
I decided to completely ignore the Bundesliga for this round, and now I’m glad that no one picked, for instance, Elversberg - they’ve already scored 3 goals in first half lol, but who could have known?

[notblox1]

Wow goodpunt is smashing it so far with 7 points 
Bloody damn Dortmund didnt score a single goal against Union Berlin, what just happened there? 
I dont think this round is going in my favor this time, but stranger things have happened so lets wait and see.
My battle with Mafia this time is Freiburg and Arsenal against his Inter and Roma

[arallmuus]

for instance, Elversberg - they’ve already scored 3 goals in first half lol, but who could have known?

I was the only one that had them on the 3rd round and they scored 0 goal  and now they scored 4 goals when no one picked them

You know what , dropping Barcelona off might have saved my ass somehow. I wasnt really going to pick them even if they were on the list because I thought Betis would atleast give them some trouble especially with the packing schedule but oh well they are unstoppable

The only thing that I wanna highlight is the 6th team, if this is rotated every 3 rounds then the whole distribution on the 6th could get alot more interesting

[famososMuertos]

We’ve already completed the task with the sixth team, ZERO, so now we’re back to the standard mode of the old-school Madness. The surprise of the round so far is Elversberg; such a surprise, in fact, that no one included them in their picks. (4-3 Augsburgo)
Elche has managed to keep a clean sheet for two consecutive matchdays, while Fulham, at least, delivered as expected.

Elche is turning into a gold pick for you in Madness!! Since they're still in the relegation zone you can keep exploiting them for a while, especially since over the next couple of rounds they continue to face average teams.
Bizarre round in the Bundesliga with the big hitters flopping. I need Freiburg to bring the heat tomorrow, they're my joker pick after Mainz let me down.
