Mousset off

Zaha lucky to escape a yellow, looks in the mood for a stupid one though

In hindsight Brewster is probably the most correctly priced player in FPL history.

Also in hindsight, SHU was the wrong club for him. A team like Brighton, who were in for him, would suit him a lot more.

I think that one is a bit crazy really, rather than the City one.

I kinda get what what i assumed happened in the city game, but the PL is running the risk of games being cancelled last minute every week, if they have teams hanging out together before matches waiting for results form tests - like realistically how can any game go ahead once one member of the squad tests positive if they are all together from time test taken to results received.

It's the Fulham game that pi$$es me off most - players have tested positive, so the game against spurs on the 30th is postponed, then new years comes along - and likes of Mitrovic are pictured at a party, then they retest the players/staff, and now more come back as positive.

I would find it very hard to imagine that Fulham could not pull together at least 14 players for the game as per the PL rules that stated at start of season.

No, you didn't need hindsight for that - we all said it at the time - the style of football they play was never going to suit him. He either got a sh!t load of money to go or he needs to get new advisors.

Brighton, Wolves, Villa, or Palace would have suited him way better.

That is assuming he's half as good as everyone was making out - the fact the Klopp sold him would lead me to think that he wasn't - plenty of other pool lads went out on loan, his contract was no an issue so could easily have sent him out.

I’ve two city players and with all the reports I’m almost conceding that that game is going to be cancelled.

Why do it last minute?

He strikes me as just another Ibe/Solanke...overrated youngsters that attract huge transfer fees because they're British.

77 including bonus points with Salah, Zouma and Justin to play.

Damn. Don't have him but was eyeing him up to being in as my cheap defender.

16 year old striker Hackford on for Blades.

What a hero....been in my squad since GW1.

Another one of my players that I've never seen play.....does he offer anything going forward at all??

Sweet CS for Mitchell

COH

Mitchell to Taylor a couple weeks back was one of my worst transfers of the season so far.

Ginger n Lemon

Happy new year everyone.

Amazing way to start it with

Martinez

Coufal Mitchell Robertson

Bruno Grealish Son (c) Salah

Bamford DCL Vardy

What reports have there been?

Edit: I’d be delighted for it to be called off with Mitchell & Coufal coming in for Dias & Cancelo

Not a whole lot unlike PVA but he's a much better defender so can't see Roy dropping him right now. Palace have some nice fixtures after the DGW as well.

Yeah I have heard nothing about it being off.

Almost certainly going ahead

I am the only baffled to why Gross doesn't start for Brighton? He's the only creative player they have.

Cheers....very grateful for the points....I guess few bonus points would be just greedy :-)

CSF

Live rank of 108k (after others get their autosubs in) which is a season high for me.

Unfortunately with 6 games left in the gameweek, I only have 3 City players left to go so it probably doesn’t get better from here.

Degag

No Podence... is he injured?
