57 with Diaz to go

Cartman78

Grim....28(-4) with Salah (C), TAA and Diaz left.

Reece James trolling me yet again.

16 points on the bench.

Mr.Nice Guy

41 with Salah and TAA to go. Raging I benched Sanchez for Ward. That's the 2nd time I've been punished. Won't be trusting Ward any more as he doesn't look up to this level.

Lemlin

28 with captain Salah, TAA and Diaz to go. Had 2 transfers and have already gone James to Perisic. Early I know but so pissed off today had to take some action!

What happens if the game gets called off tonight? I'm not so sure that a rearrangement will be accepted by both clubs this time.

Your subs will come in! I’ve a whopping 2 points from bench so hopefully the game will be fine

I'd happily take those subs points! I would have 14 points coming in.

I meant more if the game is given as a 3-0 away win, would there be points attributed to players in FPL? I'd assume not.

I'd be happy if they just designated the 3 goals to Salah (C) alright.

But if it would be 3-0, I'd say it'll be 0 points for everyone, subs come in and no re arranged fixture. Nothing FPL could do about it tbh.

FWIW, I think it's highly unlikely the game will be called off at this stage.

Man Utd — de Gea; Diogo Dalot, Varane, Martínez, Malacia; Eriksen, McTominay; Elanga, Bruno Fernandes(C), Sancho; Rashford.

Liverpool — Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, van Dijk, Robertson; Milner, Henderson(C), Elliott; Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino, Díaz.

Elanga post. Pool shaky at the back again.

Could be wildcard time

VVD has turned into Maguire

TAA yellow..will get a red the way things are going

TAA having a shocker by the sounds of it....booked now

Trent has been horrible. I'm starting to come around to Ace's way of thinking and might get rid after Bournemouth and reinvest in midfield until Pool sort their defence out.

BATB (Big At The Back) has become

Blank At The Back 🙄

Mr Crispy

Even with BOU next I'm tempted to get rid of all Pool assets.

Martial on for Elanga at HT.

Rashford goal

Have seen goals given offside for less, VAR seems to make it up as it goes along.

I think they go with whatever Gary Neville says.

Salah goal (Carvalho)

Robertson subbed

Salah the only Liverpool asset worth holding onto it seems.

Dr. Bre

That captain salah goal should get me to about 50 points for the gameweek

COH

45 points and a further drop down to 2.5m OR

unHEWT

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

Used WC almost exclusively to get Salah in as (C) for this GW.

I am so relieved!

Mr Crispy

OR really doesn't mean that much this early in the season.

shmeee

Another week where the defence is absoulte shite. TG for Saliba. 54 all out. Salah and Saliba big winners mixed with a few 6 pointers.

It's funny cos it's true!

Father Hernandez

49 all out.

My 5 defenders getting a whopping 3 points between them.

Whoopdedoo.

Benimar

40 points. Really disappointing. Starting Neco and Ward over Andreas and Sanchez killed me.

Could justify selling Trent, Dias, Luis Dias and Mount, but they all have good home fixtures. if things don’t improve for Liverpool and Chelsea on Saturday I can see an early wildcard.

Mr Crispy

42 for me. The only consolation is that most people did as poorly, more or less.

Lemlin

Should finish on 46 when captain Salah gets his bonus. Poor week.

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

64 all out. Delighted.

Still early.

wanderer100

49 all out. Rashford nice little differential with the 10 pointer but defence/Gk cost me big time this week with just 3 pts from 5 players

Muahahaha

51 all out, c Salah saving the game week really. Will hang on to TAA for the Forest game but seriously thinking of selling, he is not on it and Pool are coughing up loads of chances for the opposition

Yuck yuck yuck.

what a horrible week for me. Finished with 45, (8 points from my 5 playing defenders, and ASM laughing from the subs bench with his 13 points.)

Needless to say, red arrows everywhere.

Still, I think this week is an aberration and I think my team can definitely do better. Will hold on to everyone this week, and do a double transfer the week after.

Cypher_sounds

40 points. Poor start to the season.

2 transfers -4 done and team set for the weekend. Out of sight, out of mind till Saturday morning.

In a similar boat, have TAA & Robertson. (Presume you mean Bournemouth, not Forest which is a better game)

Will hold for this weekend but tempted by a WC after if it goes to shít.

Muahahaha

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119509596#Comment_119509596

yeah sorry Bournemouth not Forest. There is something not right with the Liverpool defence and this goes back to last season where they didnt have a clean sheet in the final 5 games, that has continued into this season and the problem hasnt been resolved. When you see VVD and Milner on the pitch arguing with each other over a conceded goal you know something is up. They coughed up stacks of chances to Fulham, Palace and United which is uncharacteristic.

Even if they get a CS v Bournemouth Id still consider selling at least one of them until you see an improvement in defence. I know people say you own TAA for his attacking returns but Id like CS too in 1 out of every 2 games and right now its 0/3 so not looking good. Ive a mate in a ML with the double Liverpool defence and its killing him so far.

VVD was a mess for their first goal. Standing there like a statute when he should have come out to try and block. Can't remember him being this bad previously.
