      That comes out to two. Not great, Clive.

    Who can I replace cucu with? Have arsenal defender and don't want Liverpool. City only ait nuri but he injured. Anyone recommend a solid def from the big three?

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      10 months, 20 hours ago

      gvardiol might be alright but lack of defcon really. he has the goal threat from set pieces, nearly scored vs napoli

      1. SINGH
        • 7 Years
        10 months, 20 hours ago

        Thanks. Guess I will go for either him or Dias now.

      Double Arsenal

      You can never have enough Arsenal defs

      1. SINGH
        • 7 Years
        10 months, 20 hours ago

        I am reluctant to have 2 from the same team. 1 goal and that's 2 clean sheets gone

    Is Palmer injured?

    1. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      10 months, 20 hours ago

      Yes

    Transfer deadline day I transferred out Cucurella for Guéhi.
    Ten minutes after I was hating the move.
    I even thought about spending my Free Hit to cover my mistake.

  6. FPL Sanky

    Palmer captain fail

  7. Couto
    • 6 Years
    10 months, 20 hours ago

    Goals conceded 2, -1 pts for Sacnhez wtf?

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      10 months, 20 hours ago

      Do you not know how the game works? Defenders and GKs are on the hook for goals conceded after RCs.

      1. Couto
        • 6 Years
        10 months, 20 hours ago

        ouch 🙁

  8. The Bandit

  9. Shark Team
    • 8 Years
    10 months, 20 hours ago

    Why the Wirtz and Sesko money were not donated to charity instead?

    1. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      10 months, 20 hours ago

      Good question!

    2. Mr. O'Connell
      • 14 Years
      10 months, 20 hours ago

      No team should ever spend that much on any transfer ever unless it's for marketing reasons

  10. Thanos
    • 4 Years
    10 months, 20 hours ago

    Hahahha Casemiro lol

      10 months, 20 hours ago

    1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      10 months, 20 hours ago

      He’s warming up, I didn’t think they could do that but maybe has changed

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 14 Years
        10 months, 20 hours ago

        Yeah changed it just before this match actually

        1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
          • 9 Years
          10 months, 20 hours ago

          Maybe he’s just trying to sort an injury problem I don’t know, but probably won’t come back on as only one sub left

      2. Sgt. Schultz
        • 9 Years
        10 months, 20 hours ago

        12th man

  21. Shark Team
    • 8 Years
    10 months, 20 hours ago

    If I was Amorim
    Sesko Amad out
    Ugarte Cunha in

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      10 months, 20 hours ago

      Ugarte? The man who can't pass the ball to an open teammate five yards away?

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      10 months, 20 hours ago

      yeah cunha needs to come on to give united control

  22. F4L
    • 11 Years
    10 months, 20 hours ago

  23. Kaneyonero
    • 9 Years
    10 months, 20 hours ago

  24. Thanos
    • 4 Years
    10 months, 20 hours ago

  25. chocolove
    • 15 Years

    Game of two idiots

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      10 months, 20 hours ago

      Very harsh on Casemiro imo.

      1. chocolove
        • 15 Years
        10 months, 20 hours ago

        At least he knew he is on 1 yellow card already

  26. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    10 months, 20 hours ago

    Cas 100th career red card it seems

  27. nanxun
    • 4 Years
    10 months, 20 hours ago

    Casemiro. Dipshit.

  28. JBG
    • 8 Years
    10 months, 20 hours ago

    That was never a YC... but it was coming since his first silly YC

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 14 Years
      10 months, 20 hours ago

      Reckon the ref was bored. It's never a second yellow.

  29. Kaneyonero
    • 9 Years
    10 months, 20 hours ago

    Open game now C'mon JP take advantage

  30. Shark Team
    • 8 Years
    10 months, 20 hours ago

    If I was Maresca:
    Garnacho in
    Chalobah out

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      10 months, 20 hours ago

      It's really a good thing you're neither Maresca nor Amorim.
