Stanislas goal direct from a corner

technically it was an O.G, wasn't going in until DDG flap at it.

Will it go down as an OG?

Edit: Given to stanislas on the FPL site

Nah, it was on target

Dimitrov

18 with 3 Lukaku and 2 baps from the mighty Joel Ward baps to come. 7 to play. Content with that. Need a big one from captain Harry tomorrow.

SlickRic

There's no chance in hell that's an OG. Come on lads, seriously.

Lights On

Perfect start! Glad I didn't go with my genius idea to bring in Borthwick-Jackson

did DDG tap the ball over his head and into the net?
had he not touched the ball - would martial been there to head the ball?

It's as much an O.G as barry's assist the other day.

Own Goals
If a player shoots or passes the ball and forces an opposing player to put the ball in his own net, then an assist is awarded.

Benimar

Great. 12 from 4 and the DDG clean sheet gone already. 14 from 5 is ugly.

If the initial shot is on target, it doesn't matter how much the defender/GK deflects or it takes it away from someone else clearing it

Ziegler1988

Lingard off for Pereira

Ziegler1988

Fellaini unassisted goal

I do get that, but if you look at the definition of OG, as per the rules of the game, which is all that matters, it was an O.G.

It doesn't say if the shot is on target or anything like that.

If a player shoots or passes the ball and forces an opposing player to put the ball in his own net, then an assist is awarded.

that's as clear as day, whether you agree with the rule or not.

De Gea save point?

on 2 I think
didn't get one for saving at stanilasis feet when clean through......!

de gea save point
followed quickly by a king goal
Ritchie assist I think

Inspector Coptoor

33 points from 5
Lukaku - 18 captain
Ighalo - 7
Soare - 6
KDB - 1
Barkley - 2

5players to go only as I have three injured defenders.
Cech, Toby, Ozil, Mahrez & Vardy.

Glad I didn't sub out Darmian or Smalling for -4 as I would have gone for a city defender.

Murray should have scored at least 1 goal in last 2 mins,

Nick powell coming on for Fellaini

billymitchell

Not sure if this result will effect too many, bar the odd few ddg owners.

Ace2007

united losing 2-1 with 3 mins left of injury time, and what does LVG do - brings on Jones.

Jaggo

As a man United supporter this is tough to watch but Bournemouth and Howe have been a great addition to the league. Their footballing philosophy is excellent and the belief to continue with it when they lost so many of their best players.
I really hope they stay up.

With the way the 3pms went I would imagine there are quite a few points on the bench alright. Who did you end up with there?

SlickRic

29 from 4.

Moreno, Coutinho, Alli, Kane (c), Mahrez, Bellerin and Ozil to go.

Butland slightly píssed on my cornflakes, but ah well.

And you just slightly pissed on mine and Aces so you passed it on!

I definitely got away with having no City coverage today. Big time.

It could've been carnage.
