    Feel like my seasons done already.

    Panic swapped Pedro for Wood then had to deal with Frimpong injury.

    Own Bruno. I know it’s early but yeah worst start in 13 years by some distance.

      NGL. It is increasingly difficult to get over a poor start. You are behind in points and because your players are doing poorly you get the double whammy of price falls.

      Obviously you can catch up, but the start is becoming more of a factor then it was, say, five years ago.

        Absolutely spot on. This is why you can’t hold onto your WC like earlier. Use it to get ahead otherwise it becomes too difficult to climb ranks.
