    Went Dias as Laporte may have been rested. He then fkn takes Dias off before the cleansheet. I give up hahahaha.

      Same here, so frustrating to be on the wrong side so many times.

    KdB fighting for baps...

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Just needs another goal involvement.

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        That would make 3 certain. But he may get 3 even without.

      2. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        But, that's whatwe naturally hope

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Hope he stays on the pitch long enough to get 3 bps...

  7. Planet Jo

    Quite pleased with my Cancelo, Rodri and Coady picks.

    Less so with the others.

  8. Esalman

    78 from 16 with 3 hits and BB, 16 to play. Finally a good week after ages.

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Bad luck. One of those 50/50s with rumours of a Laporte injury not helping. I’m in the same boat. Decided to enjoy the match

    Baps situation:
    De Bruyne (33)
    Rodrigo (33)
    Laporte (32)
    Sterling (28)
    Cancelo (28)

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      long way to go yet

    2. Haalander

    3. putana

    4. ManUtdForLife
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Only 33 for KDB? This system needs reworking I think

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        Can't agree more 😉

    1. Royal5
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      He's begging for it

  15. Gandalf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Another day, KDB could be on 20 points by now

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      And Cancelo, too.

  16. Catastrophe
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Come on Pep, hook cancelo off and let Newcy score

  17. _Gunner
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Need Dias to be fit for next game !

    1. DF
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Fingers crossed but unlikely I reckon.

      1. _Gunner
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        I don’t really know what happened
        He seemed fine before he was subbed

        1. DF
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 1 month ago

          Too much football too soon maybe. That 120 mins midweek can't have helped.

  18. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Opta must find it difficult to differentiate between Rodri and Cancelo at times.

    1. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Very similar on the pitch

  19. _Ninja_

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        1. Old Man
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 1 month ago

          • 12 Years
          2 years, 1 month ago

          Strange to be happy at that when lots of money leagues are on a knife-edge?! Every point gained is much appreciated and needed!!!

      3. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago
