Unusual to take a risk by captaining Salah. Good luck all

F1ngers

Salah > Diaz.

Frees up funds to tinker with my team over the next few weeks.

Good luck all.

It’s being reported that Raya is at the team hotel.

Rico starts according to leaks.

FT to move Jota to Diaz

2m OR

Isak benched by me, rumours he isn't starting.

COH

My team as per the WC thread. Got rid of Salah and Havertz from my original team so hoping those two dont punish me.

Was 50/50 over Flekken V Henderson too. Went for Flekken on a coin toss.

Looks like a week where there will be a wild rank swing, I see a lot of the top top players have dropped Salah this week, if ya have him, captain him.

shmeee

I've the band on Salah. Salah EO around my 2m rank is 66%. Don't own Haaland, Haaland EO 160%. This 12.30pm game will have plenty of goals that's for sure! I'd take Haaland getting 1 now and that be it....

WC Active, good luck all!

Haaland not moving great this last few minutes. Might have a knock might be able to run it off. Might not.

paulie21

Gvardiol (Grealish)

Scorpion Sting

Got Gvardiol on wildcard, noice.

F1ngers

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/122662665#Comment_122662665

Achilles, seems to be moving ok now.

COH

Got rid of Gvardiol on wildcard. Of course!

chrisd2019

Social media going a bit crazy this weekend, first its pics and videos of Raya at a hotel, now its Haaland's torn sock. Am sure the kit man can nip into the shop for a new pair for the second half..

Flaneur OBrien

I think we're in for a wild weekend with ranks as well. A genuinely exciting weekend.

Best of luck all. I think this is the first time I've captained Diaz, so apologies if he scores 2.

I'm regretting starting Onana ahead of Mitoma though.

fplfan12345

Yeahhhhh. Rico Lewis is on the pitch for the start of the second half. That’s a results.

extra gravy

After all that, Raya starts.

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

Hopefully haaland is carrying something and gets subbed off just to kill the captainers.

fplfan12345

Penalty to Newcastle.

Gordon fouled.

F1ngers

Doesn't look like Haaland is going to score today.

fplfan12345

Gordon then scores the penalty.

Foden on for Gundogan

Pope’s distribution is appalling. Half expecting him to offer a gift at some stage. He’s already tried 2-3 times.

Early game curse still a thing eh?

Newcastle barley clinging on.

Great save by Pope from Silva.

Great result there for the non haaland captainers. Hopefully Salah will dish out some justice now!

Happy with 12 points there from Gvardiol and Halland.

ForestFire

9pts for Gordon and Haaland no show means it's a good start…

Saka © (LEI H) and Duran (IPS A) to come in for Isak need to start making up some ground

Officer999

No Ben White in the squad….ouch! He’s gotta go.

ForestFire

Another pet gripe I have on the BPS…Grealish 33 for an Assist (And whatever else counts) and Gordan with 29 for an Assit and a goal (I know he doesn't get the assist)

But if the penalty winner scores the penalty should the assist not go back to the assist for the penalty??

thefallingman

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/122662936#Comment_122662936

the bonus point system is so flawed, Salah rarely gets bonus points, but someone who comes on and scores with ten mins left gets 3, it always happens

McBain11

I'm half expecting Haaland to still pick up the 3 bonus points once they get all those late stat adjustments in 😄

Scorpion Sting

Mbeumo in the 1st minute again!

Carvalho assist.
