There is no other player in the league bar Bruno who can be poor for 90 minutes and still get a double-figure FPL return.

Wan Bissaka has been poor for years......

The thing is he was shi*e for large parts of last night as well and was more than fortunate to get the haul he did, but he will always be capable of that, will always be the penalty taker and last night proved that Ole will never take him off - probably afraid of the tantrums!

Personally I think if he had scored in the first half he'd have finished with a 6 point score

Ole probably kept him on to give him a chance of scoring

shmeee

Checking the MLs and by god, why hadn't I Bruno. 50 or so players ahead of me in the Zarquone Boards league and they apart from the odd player had Bruno.

I can't even see the likes of Son, Maddison or even Salah getting close to his haul now tonight.

Yeah, think they are trying to get the prizes or just doing it for the kick of being top. They changed the rule slightly so you can't sign up and use a chip to win the manager of the week prize.

I actually didn't realise there was a prize for it, interesting. I think it'd be fairer if it was only open to people that started in Week 1. In theory you could pick a team on GW21 with GW22 in mind and then play your chip in GW22, seems a bit unfair.


No danger of me winning it regardless though :pac:

That’s it, I think he was kept on to get a goal. If he already had one I reckon he might have gone off

If he had of got an injury a la Jota - there would have been some noise made about him staying on.

All those who use any chip or set up their team that gameweek to try get the top weekly score are ineligible for prizes so they are in effect wasting their time. But hey they get their 15 minutes of fame so I suppose that's a small win to them.

Isn’t that the aim of the game ? To use chips or set up your team to get the highest score possible, how could anyone win a prize if they haven’t set up their team or used a chip to try maximize their points.

Only 30 mins until the latest installment of Pep Roulette.

I have Gundog, Stones and Dias with only Coufal on the bench to cover any shenanigans (also have no shows from Brewster and Mitchell on the bench).

Was looking at the fixtures just now and noticed that there'll be a half an hour window this evening (starting at around 8.30pm) where 3 games will be in action....seems like ages since this happened (??)

Ahh...must have missed that.... although with homeschool and working from home, last Saturday feels like about 3 months ago :-)

Rumours of Laporte starting again - hopefully a Dias rest and not Stones again!

Or possibly as someone suggested earlier in the week they go with 3 CB's

It's mad and a bit disturbing how the City team announcement pretty much shapes an entire GW

As a cancelo, stones and Dias owner that’s great news. Just need the clean sheet now!

Balls, really wanted a city defender to be dropped with Wan Bissaka on the bench

Just normal left back. Won't be running up and down the wing I'd imagine.
