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.

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:)

Pinging again because we have games tonight. Valencia are the bookie favorites and they did start well but I keep wondering if we will end up getting scarred if we put our faith on them because last season, they were horrendous overall, only winning 10 games, while bookies kept putting them as favs.

First game is hard to pick though. I guess a draw?

Both are hard to pick, at least for me. Leaning towards the draws for now but will probably change something till the deadline. Waiting for my multi 5 insurance on Sportsbet to reset and then I am searching for some markets. Probably one or both of La liga games are going to the ticket so some research is in the plan for me later today.

Sheesh, I got 2 close scores. And Valencia scoring 3 goals and not letting in any? I thought my 2-0 was also overly ambitious and yet it only got me half the points. That's what I mean about Valencia, they just want to play like this and trick you into thinking they're finally going to do well. Or are they going to maybe? So frustrating:) I have to say well done to tomahawk09 for getting it 3-0!

Quite an impressive way to start the game week for me, I had one exact score and one close prediction (I could have had both exact though) I just couldn't have foresee Valencia scoring 3 goals, but still 8 games to play for.

Mallorca really held their ground after taking the early lead.

I continue to do so badly in this pool even though it's the league I bet on the most. I guess now I know why I should just not play anymore:)

I had the same notion last season, despite La Liga being my 2nd favorite league after the EPL (due to being Barcelona supporter). However, I think I'm not so familiar with majority of the teams any longer after proper study, I used to rate most teams basically on what I thought they used to be rather than they currently are, I'm speaking of teams like Valencia, Getafe, Bilbao, Villarreal and co.. most of these teams used to be fight for the top 6-8 place, but last season they all struggle a lot and cost me a lot points.

La Liga's my favorite but I guess it is just because I've followed Barca for such a long time. I do know even most of the games been shown on tv was from EPL but I always really liked the Spanish style plus the crowds and those drums at the stadium.

It's different when betting I guess, as you study different things and are less emotional?

Hey guys!

Regarding the 0.5 mBTC Free Bet for participating in this pool, Steve hasn't been active on the forum since last week (I'm assuming he's got other matters to attain to).
Please don't fret and thank you all for the patience while we await Steve's return; he's beyond fair when it comes to paying out Free Bets as we all know.
If anyone has any questions going forward re: Free Bets, please send me a PM on the matter.

No problem! I get random freebets in chat in SB quite a lot so I honestly have no complaints and this will be an additional bonus whenever it comes to us. I think they're busy upgrading chat on site too, and everything else looks like it's progressing well so we are very happy here.

It was a pretty good round for me first yellow cap for the season and considering that I missed out on the first game on Friday. I would probably wouldn't get the right prediction more likely I would predicted Betis to win.

Wow congrats you got your first yellow cap even though in reality you missed a game, that's something great, man. But there are also only 2 participants who got points in the match Real Betis - Cadiz and they are rdbase and Harkorede. I also want to congratulate MoSala, because he has collected a high score and it is the highest of two different tournaments also in Serie A and EPL. This was a surprise at the beginning that made me feel more enthusiastic or maybe pessimistic about being able to pursue it. Grin
