Ah, I didn't even realize Barca-Sevilla was postponed, I saw the pick available in Superbru but was looking for the match in bookmaker odds and couldn't find it. Just realized my old news feed also didn't update.

All my picks entered, I don't know how to pull myself out of the bottom but this time I went with "crowd" consensus.

This postponment will do be of great help to Barcelona, they'll prepare very well against Bayern Munich on Tuesday for the Champions League.
It won't be an easy one, Bayern won't get things as easy as they think.
Hopefully it ends a draw, because I don't see any side taking all three points with themselves.

I belleive that two games in Laliga have been postponed as according to Flashscore not only Seville vs Baca is postponed there is also Alaves visiting Villareal,
I still didn't check Superbru but my answer what happens if a game gets postponed on Superbru when you locked your prediction is it going to stay locked again when they play the match I another gameweek or it resets and give you another opportunity to choose because if they play a double gameweek and a team still crammed with fixtures they tend to rotate a lot of players and that going to affect the results.

Unfortunately, international break continues to screw with our games so it has been confirmed that Barca- Sevilla game is postponed due to multiple players from Sevilla playing for Argentina just day and a half before the derby.

can we (la liga only pool participants) still participate in this week's free bet challenge? which game is gonna count for La Liga pool?

Not sure if you are joking Grin

That free bet challenge is for participants of both pools, no matter if they are playing just in one of them. Go enter your prediction. To phrase it differently, if you paid entry to one of my pools you got the right to participate in free bet challenge.

I will try to pick one game from each league every week but when we have great games in one league and shit in the other....I will opt for derby games.

It's pretty early so you'll be fine. At least you're not that user sitting in last place in the EPL pool Cheesy

He's definitely out of the race after just 3 rounds unfortunately

it is postponed, where there is time usually in Superbru, it said postponed, as well as Villarreal match, that is postponed as well
there is not much to see this weekend, Real is playing home against Celta, could be tough, but win should be certain, and Atletico is playing in Barcelona, with smaller city rival Espanyol, that is still score-less this season, but now have conceived one goal from Mallorca, so I do not expect goals there

from other matches, cannot wait Monday, for Maximiano to hopefully debut on Granada goal, so do not expect goals there as well

Time to bump the thread a little, don't forget to put your predictions in.

Unfortunately, international break continues to screw with our games so it has been confirmed that Barca- Sevilla game is postponed due to multiple players from Sevilla playing for Argentina just day and a half before the derby.

And that should have been one of the games for our free bet challenge.

On the other hand, Barcelona got rid of Griezmann's high salary, but the strange thing is their contract with Dutchman Luke de Jong - at the request of Ronald Koeman, as the media said - despite the low level of this player and his very weak appearance with Seville in the last season.

I also thought that was very strange. I think in normal times I do enjoy watching Dutch athletes play soccer but I'm still not even fully convinced by the one star we have from Ajax in our team. Koeman is Dutch himself so maybe he thinks he can squeeze out the best from his own country but I also thought this was an unneccessary buy.

Oh and I'm so happy Fati got No. 10.

Atletico madrid, tho...Suarez, Joao felix, Griezmann, Carrasco, Angel Correa..too much firepower! but you just know they're gonna win most of their games 1-0, just Simeone things lol

I am not afraid, only so many attacking positions in the team while Simeone is the coach. Half of them will be expensive bench warmers Grin

More seriously though, this is confirmation that Atletico is tired of Real/Barca domination and they plan to take few more championships if possible.

The last moments of the transfer window have seen Griezmann returns to Atletico Madrid.
Atletico reinforced their chances to defend their championship they need him because Suarez alone is not enough and Joao Felix hasn't done anything yet, so it was very logical to try to bring Grizzo back to Simone he did not shine greatly except with him, especially since his level with Barca recently was weak, even with the departure of Lionel Messi .
- the argument of some that Griezmann did not appear at his level - and at the same time his exaggerated salary, which amounts to more than 24 million euros. Net, a very, very exaggerated figure set by the previous administration led by Bartomeu.

So Barca got rid of the Griezmann Grin

Time to pop open the champagne.

He is going back to Atletico so everybody is happy. Barca has money to finally register Aguero, Griezmann will again play good football and Atletico is serious contender for another title. I just don't like the rumors that Barca is looking to buy De Jong from Sevilla as replacement, have nothing against him but he is not player for Barca. Better to use some young guys and players they already have.

Now if someone would just take Pjanic & Umtiti.....

Not quite just yet, it's a loan, but yeah, pleased to have another mistake off the books. I don't know though, Suarez was a sure mistake and we practically gifted Simeone the title last season. Griezmann and Suarez together I think now means they should make a proper defense of the title, I'd say should make them top favs now.

Have to focus on our youth squad, man.

Barca got rid of their best player (quality wise, doesn't matter if he never fit in the club)...as a real madrid fan, cheers to that Grin

about the wages and Aguero...Barca was able to register the argentinian yesterday after Jordi Alba and Busquets accepted a paycut. Heh! I suppose they didn't know Griezmann was gonna leave a few hours later Roll Eyes

Atletico madrid, tho...Suarez, Joao felix, Griezmann, Carrasco, Angel Correa..too much firepower! but you just know they're gonna win most of their games 1-0, just Simeone things lol

Ha, I fully expected to be last after terrible round but it seems there are few of you guys in even worse shape Grin

Doesen't matter, still only begging, plenty of time to attack paying positions. Or more realistically, watch the difference to the top grow every week.

yeah it's still in the beginning of the season and you don't know when you will get some good rounds.
In the first round I was 11th with 7.5points behind top two rounds later I'm 2nd tied with the top on number of points.
So as long you stay close for the last 5 rounds anything can happens.
You Don't know when your luck will start to kick in.
Or you just Suck at it Grin

and every gameweek you see the gap gets larger.
For me I was very lucky specially this gameround.
I had most of my predictions have 1 goal in them that made me get 3 correct score.
I feel that Laliga is getting fewer goals scored then the other top major leagues it could be only explained that with Messi leaving Barcelona and and the total spending in the league is far less then other leagues.

It's nice to get early starts yes, but also nice to be right at the bottom so nobody expects you to sneak back up and get yellow hats later haha. I try not to let these results get to me but it's funny being in this position when it's supposed to be the league you know the most among all the big European ones:p

No Messi no goals? How boring life is:p

Barca won without playing great. First half wasn't bad, but second was struggle. It was interesting to see youth like Gavi and Nico playing in difficult game. I'm Barca fan, but I must admit that some kids on our bench aren't very familiar for me.
Atletico managed to take draw from game with Villarreal after scoring on 95th minute. It sounds a bit weird because Atletico dominated game and Villarreal made just 2 shots in total.
Also, a bit surprising Rayo Vallecano big win.
After 3 rounds we don't have teams which haven't dropped points and 6 teams collected 7 points and sharing 1-6th places. Now we are going into international break.
And I'm not going to comment my performance in the pool so far...

You and me both buddy. Time to get used to not knowing half the team this whole season too. I'm just really waiting to see us push out even more of the costly stars (or just one guy Griezmann no matter how important he might seem now).

I even still feel really really weird not seeing Messi on the team bench or on the field. You know I saw him coming on for PSG on youtube and that gave me some weirdness too.

yeah, unexpected, but I could not believed that Granada did not gave a chance to new goalkeeper, that they brought last week (Maximiano), instead having their third keeper on the goal
Rayo used early chances, and Granada game was crushed, I actually cannot remember them scoring more than 2 goals on any match?

Atletico played well, but could not finish, and Villarreal took point with 2/2 realization, but if you are watching Belgium league, Gent won 6:1 over Brugge, with 6/6 shots-on-target/goals, and Brugge was a bit better on the pitch, so Villarreal is still reasonable

Osasuna scored two goals in overtime to get a win in Cadiz, congrats

You have to watch there games week in week out, so as you could get use to there style of play tactics,if they're good ball possession keepers.
I do watch Athletico Madrid a whole lot, I got to know they're offensive off the ball, possibility of them grabbing a yellow card is likely at anytime.

Yes I know, but when your timezones are not helping you, and you have weird working shifts like I do that are never certain every week, then it's not even physically possible to watch them.

This is why I like the weekend games, at least a few are in the afternoon so for me it is late night. Not too crazy but staying up after midnight is only reserved for Champions League:)
