This GW has been the strangest for me, from the very first game I already knew that this week will not go nicely for me.

Bowen scored a goal, I did not have Bowen, lost point.

Pickford my second choice goal keeper scored an own goal, lost points.

No clean sheet for Ramsdale still.

Jackson missed a clear goal opportunity.

Casimero and Fernandes were lost in the game against Arsenal.

No goals from Mitoma and March.

Poor performance from Isak too.

22nd on the leaderboard and I am not proud of it. I need to do better next GW.

Okay, I got it. I will probably keep Sterling in my team but I would keep a close eye on his performances in the coming weeks. As for Mbeumo vs Mitoma debate, since Toney is still suspended in Brentford attack, Mbeumo will continue to shine + he takes penalties now as well. I think that gives him the edge for now.





What do you all think about Nunez now? Looks like he has won back a place in the starting line up and did reasonably well yesterday with 2 assists yesterday.

I can think of another player in my squad instead of Mbeumo after Toney joins the team. About Darwin topic frankly I would have definitely transferred him instead of N.Jackson if I had a transfer right. He could have even made a hat-trick in the last Aston Villa match if he was a little luckier.  Cry

Not a good week to not have Haaland, eh? Roll Eyes

for the participants who do not have this striker in their squad already Wink
for me personally, he has already brought a total of 40 points yesterday, because i also have him as a captain. what annoys me a bit that Joško Gvardiol did not play yesterday and i have scored with him (also in my squad) zero points Tongue
with Saka, Havertz and Gapko there are still these three players left, who can still get some points for me today

My kid plays and Haaland is a must-have, think we knew this a season ago, but I'm going broke with Nunez captaincy, I'll hold him all throughout injury. Going down with this Darwin ship, for better or worse (hell, 18 points isn't too bad... sob).

What do you all think about Nunez now? Looks like he has won back a place in the starting line up and did reasonably well yesterday with 2 assists yesterday.
His on my radar atm especially that I thought his body language and eagerness to play looked better than before, and maybe because his finding more of the ball in the 18 yard box and should be getting more goals going forward.

I'm on the Nunez train since game day (or at least MD2 maybe my autopick didn't have him fit, can't recall.

There's not been much wrong with his body language before, why I like him, he doesn't feel down when it doesn't happen for him. Mne had an awful first season in terms of conversion, I'm okay with Nunez really. I smell a triple captain coming =D

@logfiles why Haaland no captain? A waste!

Do you still think Haaland can't reach 34 goals in the league?
As long as Pep doesn't have a hand in how many games he gets to play, Haaland will get 34+ goals..if Pep limits his game time he might not break this number Smiley

Btw this is a true golden boot winner and what I like about him is that his the old skool kind of striker that doesn't need the fancy footwork to get goals, so that 34 goals is going to be easy to get!!

Having him wasn't enough, As I witnessed it. You had to captain him, I didn't  Grin, and I am not surprised that I was one of the poor performers for this game week. Almost 97% of the players in our mini league captained him.

However, I am still defiant toward captaining him like the masses always, Just experimenting on looking for differentials to see if it finally pays off like it did in game week 2.

I also added Maddison to my squad for 7.7m this week. I think that Mbeumo is a better choice than Mitoma. About Sterling he didn't have a very bad match in fact. However his teammates acted clumsily on the chances he prepared. If there were quality finishers beside Sterling I think he would have made a contribution of at least 2 assists last Saturday.

It wasn't a good gw for me. If Jackson turned Sterling's pass into a goal in the last minutes everything would have been fixed. I don't think he is good at finishing at all. Chelsea are absolutely feeling the absence of Nkunku. I think Enzo was the best on the pitch despite their losing against N'Forest.

I should've taken the advices you guys shared here.  Sterling now looking like a 1-match wonder to me. Blank the entire 90mins. Getting Maddison or Mitoma would have been a much better deal.

I left my TV to go use restroom at 90+1mins and returned to find it 3-1! How did it happen? I was wondering how Manutd Defence got unlocked in a matter of minutes when I remembered Maguire was brought on. Is it a coincidence?

Defenders were awful again! Dropping an average 2 pointer.

The defensive quality of that Man Utd team dropped after the introduction of Maguire and Evans. Man Utd held their end nicely in 90 minutes but after those subs, Arsenal unlocked the defense to win the game. It's funny to think that Man Utd were up 2-1 in the 88th minute but it was ruled as offside but on the 102nd minute, Arsenal was leading 3-1.

Looks like Man Utd lost their cool in the final minutes immediately after Garnacho's goal was ruled offside.

Saka wasn’t so impressive today. To have missed two golden opportunities, he just wasn’t in for anything explicit. Fortunately, two loosed canons in D. Rice and G. Jesus had to get there first for the team and against Manchester United.
Saka was properly kept quiet by Diogo Dalot who we were unsure will be able to cover that win properly. Rashford of course did very well many times dropping back to give assistance to him behind against Saka.

Maguire to me was not the problem. The problem is with the entire Manchester United team that are inconsistent, switching on and off and not being able to maintain the pressure. The were always dangerous anytime they attacked, but they were not given enough opportunity by Arsenal who worked hard to recover the ball anytime we lost the ball.

I was impressed with how Rice played today, but for Havertz? I feel he should not start games for us. He is not ready for it, there is no good connection between him and Martinelli like Xhaka provided.

Fabio Vieira should be given more opportunity to play, he was spot on with the timely assist to Jesus to score the last goal that was excellent.

I am really proud of Arsenal, we look almost like Champions league football material.

What a game!

United tried to hold on, but they were washed away during stoppage time.

Couldn't identify xGI streaks across matches except for Saka and Rashford, so if you own them... keep 'em  Wink

I was amused by how during the post-match interview TH said that “we have to accept the referee’s decisions but...” and further enumeration of the many alleged mistakes that the referee made  Grin According to TH, United should have won this game but for some reason when I look at the statistics I don't believe him  Cheesy

The stripped white and black jersey for Manchester United don’t have that feeling like am watching a Manchester United game here, worst still, the Arsenal dominance is way high on the pitch.
It isn't black, it is dark green but looks quite like black on TV. Or maybe our mind interprets it like that, I was thinking I am watching Newcastle for first half an hour and getting surprised every time I see United player  Grin Ok, embellishing a little but it was weird experience.
Yeah, I only later noticed that when the camera zoomed in but mehn, it was so Newcastle United and the only convincing part to it was, the billboard fixtures and the style of play as am sure, Newcastle United will play way much better than  Manchester United showed in this match. They played like a scared team, always delaying the ball and were willing to settle for a draw even.
It was a lovely ball and brilliant finish from Garnacho, I feel that goal should have been given but, it was just inches off.

Saka wasn’t so impressive today. To have missed two golden opportunities, he just wasn’t in for anything explicit. Fortunately, two loosed canons in D. Rice and G. Jesus had to get there first for the team and against Manchester United.

That triple captain chip really paid off for you.
It sure did. A hat trick and an assist for just a game, it’s a performance for a double game week.
Congratulations on taking the international break initiative to use that important chip. Great one pinning your name to GW4.

What point expectation do you have on Havertz to have let him future on the squad… he’s just another average player who’s point is basically based on team performance, he doesn’t have any real critical contribution to the games. He’s loosed pass gave Manchester United there goal. I guess his just an available price option for you Cygan, isn’t it?
And Saka picked up a yellow card, that was so unnecessary and I feel the referee shouldn’t have given that, he was in possession of the ball, was falling and trying to get the ball before he made that contact with B. Fernandez. Still waiting on his goal.

this is just the week when all questioning about Haaland came to pay-off
made that mistake last year, and this season I have him as perma-captain, expect for some DGW, when I will question that, but all other weeks he is C

aside of him, other let me down so far, but there is more to play, and Arsenal vs United is what I am looking for, due to having for players in that duel

Ever since Roman Abramovichs name was detached from this brand thanks to the Russia-Ukraine war, this team has never been the same !! At this point it gets me to think current owners are all about the money or they totally have no love for football one bit !! Pretty much Something  similar with what happened to Leicester after previous owner passed and successor came with a different vision which saw the foxes performance tank and got booted out of the Premier league...and hope the Blues don't go down this road Huh

They are attempting to transition the club from buying to producing in the long term, but the early signals are not promising. The vision is sound, but the implementation is flawed. We could have spent £1B on Mbappe, Neymar, Osimhem, and some top creative midfielders and experienced defenders to return the side to the top four, but instead we went for some random Brazilian and British youth players.

To be fair, Arsenal were so stingy back then and didn't spend so much like Chelsea spend these days. I am at a point when Chelsea sign a star striker or playmaker and inside me, I know he's going to flop  Grin

Have you noticed how you have even already forgot how go Nkunku was before he set his feet on Chelsea? He left RB Leipzig at the top level. At 25, he should be getting closer to or hitting his prime, but... it's Todd Boehly's Chelsea!

I've already convinced myself that no striker will ever replace Drogba and Costa, and that everyone who joins our project dies. We had a very strong preseason performance with four at the back, so I'm not sure why Chilwell is playing at LW when we have good natural LW players on the bench. POCH OUT.


Problem is those young players costed more then proven players would have costed. When we are talking about young teams that is usually a combination of own players grown trough academy plus several relatively cheap signings from countries like Netherlands and Portugal, you know what I am talking about.

We won the 2020 CL with this style, but what we have now is strange to me.
