      Hope so. Last piece of my Bench Boost with Dubravka, Esteve, and Diouf. It’s probably the best I’ve done on BB.

    Sold Mbeumo to get Salah (c)

        Bad process, Palmer was probably best captain option

    2. Moon Dog
        6 months, 25 days ago

        Maguire leading the baps, but is now off. Good for Bruno.

        Mbeumo off 🙁

          CHE don’t look like they’re likely to score.

          1. Moon Dog
              6 months, 25 days ago

              0 shots on target. Offered nothing.

            To think this time last night I had Dub in for Sanchez and took out Ekiteke for JP. Love this game. I was in the top 200,000 last night. Top 2M this GW would be a blessing.

              Msn U really are utter garbage.

              Palmer got injured or tactical?

              1. Scapegoat Salah
                • 9 Years
                6 months, 25 days ago

                Tactical from what I’ve read online

              Should have kept Maguire on 😛

            • Thanos
              • 4 Years
              6 months, 25 days ago

              Would be amazing to hear Amorim after United blows off this lead

              1. Magic Zico
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 7 Years
                6 months, 25 days ago

                Or we will never hear from him anymore ...

                1. Thanos
                  • 4 Years
                  6 months, 25 days ago

                  Oh we definitely will. And he’ll continue to say that I’ll stick to my formation

            • Moon Dog
                6 months, 25 days ago

                Yoro still too raw. Completely missed that header. Maguire surely 1st choice from now on.

              • Paul Psychic Octopus
                • 15 Years
                6 months, 25 days ago

                Why does this bloke always use one of his subs to swap a central defender?! Totally bizarre. Maguire would have cleared that.

                • 4 Years
                6 months, 25 days ago

                Any possibility of a Rodon DefCon point for that Chelsea goal?

                Im not up with the exact rules yet

                  6 months, 25 days ago

                  huh? Rodon??

                • 12 Years
                6 months, 25 days ago

                Why does Sanchez keep the second goal conceded when not on the pitch???

                1. Tonyawesome69
                  • 7 Years
                  6 months, 25 days ago

                  He was sent off, not subbed off...

                  1. Tonyawesome69
                    • 7 Years
                    6 months, 25 days ago

                    If a player receives a red card, they will continue to be penalised for goals conceded by their team.

                  6 months, 25 days ago

                  Cause red card means you still contribute to any goals
                  Conceded after

                3. Gubby-Allen
                  • 4 Years
                  6 months, 25 days ago

                  They are the rules. I suppose prevents a GL or defender getting a red card, team lose 8-0 and you be better off having them sent off than playing.

                      because he came on in the 2nd half

                      Brutal week but at least Caicedo remains the best value pick in the game.
