Mane is out with Covid so just grabbed Jota from the bin. Eases the pain some bit!

Nice pick. I was looking at the bin last night and picked up Armstrong and Bertrand for this week vs WBA.

I picked up Tielemans v West Ham

He should get a run out this week and probably start next week from what Lampard has said.

Monster haul from Chilwell incoming and of course Trimm Trabbs has him - I feel like getting sick!

Jesus, some score there. I have you next so I’m hoping I’ve just missed the brunt of the storm there.

Green&Red

He’s one for ye, I’m in an NFL draft, this guy accidentally subs out someone he wanted to keep. So say brought in Harvey Barnes and dropped Son instead of Keita. Sticks in a message to the group saying, sorry about that lads, can ye leave him there so I can pick him up on the next waiver.
Acceptable?

If i believed it was an honest mistake then I would let him get him back.

Yeah. If it’s genuine then it’d be the right thing to do.

At the same time though it wouldn’t be wrong of the group to ignore his plea. His mistake. Lesson learned. But I’d always lean toward believing him and playing it ‘fair’.

Is there a reason, you can think of, that makes it likely that he did want to transfer out that player ?

Green&Red

I’d have thought above anyone Klopp you’d have said f**k him!

No reason, genuine mistake. The commissioner has the power to read him. If I wasn’t routed to the bottom of the league I think I’d have said no to it

Did he message the group straight away?

And do you think everyone else will be fair; hate to have first pick, and then see the next guy pick him up!!

Happened last week and by the time I saw it the commissioner had already thrown him back into your mans team, no real debate on it

Should have been a group vote.

Although ‘commissioner’ sounds tooled up with power so maybe it was his call.

ps - you’ve mistaken my previous examples of hungover intolerance as a norm. I’m actually quite a just person.

Wasn’t expecting to get Cavani, and now instead I’m wondering why nobody else wanted him.

Would be worried about his minutes to be honest.
I think Wilson will out score him by a mile but who knows. Gonna be a crazy season.

Jorginho was my first pick, quiet happy to get him

My thinking behind Cavani being a better pick for me than Wilson is that I’ve enough guys in my team that mean Wilson won’t be a starter in my team when everyone is fit.

So I can cherrypick Cavani for fixtures that he is likely to play in.

I forgot to change my team from last week, not sure how I'm set up.

Of course you’re getting your 8 Maguire points off your bench

All the pundits were saying he needed to be benched, looks like it worked.

Trimm Trabb

Looking to move on Martial or Jesus but to get a decent midfielder in the trade.. anyone got an offer for me?

Proposing I take a good mid of yours for my worst (Pogba) and you take Martial or Jesus off me for your dud forward - might be a deal that works for someone?

If only I had a dud forward. Or do I.

I would take Martial for Mitrovic and you can have Mahrez or Willian for Pogs?

Hmmmm, should anyone help strengthen the position of the the guy in 1st who has a 9 point lead?

Why you so hot on having another top midfielder ?

You have 3 from what I can see.

Have a look at my team. I’m a big Martial fan. See if you can make me an offer.

November/December return according to Manchester Evening News.

Always worth asking.. Foden wasn't quite enough for me

Your getting a bit greedy with the Liverpool players CSF! A Brewster goal and you'll be wiped out!!!!

Correct. But on the contrary, no goal and I get roughly 18+.

Trimm Trabb

35 from 5 looks pretty damm good.. until I check to see Klopp on 38 from 4.. bollocks!

Klopps remaining players look like they should outscore mine so need lady luck to intervene or will be losing with a high score..

Lady luck better stay well away.

If I don’t get 3 points this GW then I give up.

39 from 5 so far.

Triple clean sheet from defenders with a goal from Walker.

Podence scored too.

Baps everywhere.

Whoever is playing Average this GW might struggle.

Hopefully it will be a closer league this season. Seems to be more competitive.

Green&Red

This is what I hate about draft


I have Mitrovic in my FPL team so want him to do well but if he does too well I’ll lose the match in this

CSF

Reckon after that Maddison assist I will be a point either way from average or even a draw. If only he'd taken it and scored I think I'd have stolen the win.

Average has already taken me for 3 of its overall tally of 7.

It’s taken an early lead against me this GW. Son of a bitch.

Trimm Trabb

I'm 3 points ahead of you Dearg and you have Tarkowski & Zaha v my Pope so if Zaha blanks I could nick it - unless there is a difference between Pope & Tarkowski.

Have Zaha in my proper FPL team so not sure what to hope for..

I'm 3 ahead as I've Aurier subbing in for my no shows Greenwood and Laca so I should win. You're team is ridiculous though, I think you'll end up winning the league.

Ah I forgot you had Jota, Yea I'm gonna need Zaha to do something or another defender goal.

Looked at Trimm’s team there on the back on what Dearg said.

Hard to argue with that. Looks some squad of 15.

Trimm Trabb

Jammed it with the Zaha COVID situation - took me about 20 mins to remember it was good for me in draft.

Thanks for all the love for the Trimm Trabbs - plenty of players in that 15 I wouldn’t be overly confident in but I hope yee are right and I rise up the rankings.

3 no shows with only 1 sub was the difference. Covid hit me hard this week.

Think I’m only 3 pints ahead of average so your autosubs may do me over.

Don’t think the game tonight would have pushed Average up too much.
