        My patience is really wearing thin with Rogers

  2. The Philosopher

    Kept Thiago and sold Bowen. Season over.

    1. Absolutely Muñozed
      5 months, 16 days ago

      what happened to Thiago??

      1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        • 9 Years
        5 months, 16 days ago

        Hasn’t scored his customary brace/hat trick yet

  3. Sailboats
    • 10 Years
    5 months, 16 days ago

    Konsa wastes an opportunity

  4. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    5 months, 16 days ago

    Time to head into the stock market?

  5. TheBiffas
    • 5 Years
    5 months, 16 days ago

    Wonder why Luiz didn't get a sniff at relegation threatened Forest?

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      5 months, 16 days ago

      Too similar to Anderson?

      No idea though

  6. Sailboats
    • 10 Years
    5 months, 16 days ago

    Ngl Thiago looks 45 years old

    1. FantasyTony
      • 8 Years
      5 months, 16 days ago

      That feels like how long I've been waiting for him to score.

    2. The Philosopher
      • 5 Years
      5 months, 16 days ago

      That's what not investing in the stock market can do to a person.

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        5 months, 16 days ago

        Not funny and getting boring

        1. Ball Ake
          • 2 Years
          5 months, 16 days ago

          We're in a Bull market

  7. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    5 months, 16 days ago

    How are Villa defenders looking? Does anyone look more appealing than Senesi?

    1. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      5 months, 16 days ago

      I've got Konsa but he's pretty much permanently benched with having a 6 pt ceiling

      1. Jet5605
        • 11 Years
        5 months, 16 days ago

        Cash seems to be the popular choice due to some attacking threat but no DC.

        1. Gizzachance
          • 11 Years
          5 months, 16 days ago

          Need at least a cs from him

  8. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    5 months, 16 days ago

    Why are people complaining about Rogers? Trying to jinx it or what? Watching Mu game.

    1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      5 months, 16 days ago

      He seems to have stopped shooting since I bought him 😆

  9. Tonyawesome69

    Too easy for Fulham playing through the United press

    1. JBG
      • 8 Years
      5 months, 16 days ago

      Great pass to Lammens from Fulham there

  10. JBG
    • 8 Years
    5 months, 16 days ago

    Šeško should come on, needs more physicality up top and someone that can take down a direct ball. Actually thought Carrick would start him because of that.

  11. SpaceCadet
    • 12 Years

    Andersen yc

  23. Jet5605
