Are you using young lads? How is it going?

I toyed with the idea once upon a time.

Out of context this would be .... a legal minefield

What are the changes of Christian Benteke getting to 90 in the next PL review? or will his time out with injury mean he might miss out on it this time round?

He will need to score about 15-20 more goals to hit 90 by May.

He will def stay this time anyway

Well done to Villa on the win tonight. Sound fella, that manager.

I have hopefully now recovered from the ****e I put myself in by not changing the team, and should be back to 100% fitness for my first 11 this week.

Cheers al. Noticed you had a few big names on the bench alright. The squad fitness issue is a big deal this season. I haven't got the squad to rotate much unfortunately

The fitness thing is making this GW a little more realistic I think ...

Makes people think about who they choose to play ... no longer just picking the 11 strongest players and off ya go. I tend to through bench a first teamer here and there, so no real difference to my approach.

Ron-Robert ZIELER has completed his move to SS Lazio from Cruzeiro for 18,894,000

Being broke sure makes the makes things easier!!!!!

I suppose I have to up my expectations for the season considering league position and strengthening the most important area of the pitch!

i'm having no problems with my squad being unfit but I do seem to pick up an injury every match, yesterday it was pogba. last week i lost benatia and cabella, the week before that it was vidal and gustavo. what ive learnt is to not change my formation or tactics because of injuries, that cost me 4 games on the bounce and i got hammered in all of them.

Maybe it is just me but the fitness thing doesn't seem to be as bad for the last 2 matches as it was for few before that?

Nope, same for me. Not as bad but still different than before and different than other GWs. I also find that fitness drops the day before a match. Aguero was 94% on Friday but down to 91% on Saturday and for the match. As others have said, just need to adapt

Borussia Dortmund slumped to a 3 - 0 defeat to Manchester City in their Division 1 fixture.
