Bruno or KDB is a big decision in the next few weeks

Have to know how accurate the 20% is and what impact it will have, with the amount of new teams created all the time, given it's a 12:30 game as well he'll be in loads of teams.

If only there was a way of seeing playing % owned from teams playing since GW1.

Strange they would award it if not sure, would you not wait till confirm and add it.

What will they do if Rashford comes out after the game and says he touched the cross, ala John Terry all those years ago

Was just gonna post that. Can't believe he's that highly owned.

Hamez goal be nice

I still can't tell if DCL got a touch. In one angle looks like he does, in the other it doesn't

COH

Having not seen it at all I can say he definitely did

*disclaimer - I own DCL

It's impossible to have everyone. Like to me you're seriously hurting overall team level by having 4 of Son, Kane, Salah, KDB and Bruno, never mind the others like Mane, Sterling , Aguero etc.

3 seems the most without seriously skimping elsewhere

I was more getting at - the number of new teams being created since GW 1 could have loads of Bruno in their teams. There are like 1/2m more teams now that in GW1? Maybe it's a smaller %.

PEA is owned by near 14% despite being 12m and doing f**k all for most of the season, so is he in dead teams, or teams created for one week only? Doubt there are 14% of active players with him in their team

Ace2007

Bruno got a yellow btw

Ace2007

Pickford with another Howler and gets away with it

Maguire has to get a penalty here - astonsihing that he gets cleaned out and no penalty

Michael Keane kicks Maguire, then Pickford kicks him - both missing the ball and VAR says no.

Shanotheslayer

United robbed of a penalty.

VAR wrong again

Looks like mcguire pushed him first tbf

Shanotheslayer

Anyone know what happens if Maguire misses the ball on that Digne tackle? Assume it's the free out for offside? Why were they reviewing the tackle? To see if it was a yellow?

Who is on pens for Everton?

So much slack over the Pickford incident, he could give a yellow/red for dangerous play from what I recall.

Really not sure, I'd imagine a free out.

If it's offside or a foul, the game is stopped I thought. Whatever happens after has no impact on the game unless it's something like fighting.
