Lerma - City cleanie gone.

Ake had been subbed before that for anyone that owns him.

Mr Crispy

Gutted. Mahrez's 1 point cameo is going to block my only sub coming on - Andreas with a 1 point cameo...

Need a TAA haul to stop the day from being a total disaster.

Weird week already,no Nunez hurts and got salah and Trent in but left c on haaland by mistake was meant be on salah, not the worst result but feels like I fcuked up atm

Mr Crispy

Saka's blank and a Salah haul will really destroy my rank. At least until midweek, when it can really get bad. 😅

Henderson and his big head blocks a Trent (Salah) goal

Mr.Nice Guy

Think Henderson cost me about 15 points there in not getting his head out of the way.

Oh my god I just saw that. As a Trent captainer I'm fuming!

Glad these Pool players will be straight back out of my team...poor showing so far.

Salah off the bar

Cypher_sounds

Think it's time to sub TAA now Jurgen, just so I can actually enjoy it when they concede.

Just been subbed!

Very nice 12 points, cheers Klopp!

Planned all week to do James to VVD and captain TAA, then got mad idea to get Salah in for -8 and gave him the captaincy - if i just played things safe i'd be doing so much better

Gakpo subbed

Robertson booked

Captain Trent pays off in the first game, albeit not with the expected returns.

3rd CS in a row for Liverpool in the league. VVD returning has made the defence more solid.

No Nunez means no fun in attack.

eagle eye

I've 36 points from six as KDB didn't play. Badiashile left to play.

Just the three Arsenal lads left to go then. I'm happy at this point that I decided not to make any changes, that could all change midweek though.

Mr Crispy

Tottenham XI: Forster, Romero, Dier, Lenglet, Emerson, Hojbjerg, Skipp, Davies, Kulusevski, Richarlison, Kane.

Subs: Austin, Sanchez, Son, Perisic, Danjuma, Porro, Tanganga, Moura, Sarr.

Chelsea XI: Arrizabalaga, James, Silva, Koulibaly, Chilwell, Fernandez, Loftus-Cheek, Sterling, Felix, Ziyech, Havertz.

Subs: Bettinelli, Badiashile, Aubameyang, Mudryk, Mount, Zakaria, Gallagher, Madueke W Fofana.

Fitz*

Just realized Badiashile is not starting. Not the worst thing when I have Kane also. Hopefully Kane gets a hat trick and Badiashile stays rooted on the bench.

Mr Crispy

I need Felix to get me a few points today. It's really not happening, is it?

Fitz*

Thiago Silva gone off injured. Fofana on, and can still pick up CS points should Chelsea get one.

Listening to the Newstalk commentary....not a single mention of Felix...what a dud of a signing he's been for me :-(

Red card for Ziyech

Fitz*

Ziyech sent off by VAR. But then changed by the referee to a yellow card.

A few other yellows dished out - Havertz & Emerson Royale.

Edit...changed to yellow

Crazy few minutes

ForestFire

From what I could tell Ziyech was sent off by the Ref and not VAR (They already looked and so no need to inteven), it just took him a long time to show the Red?

VAR doesn't send someone off automatically, so how could it be them without asking the ref to look at the screen?

Then When the Ref showed the Red card, only then does VAR get involved to ask the ref to look at the red card.
