so far, worst La Liga season for me, but this one is different from previous few seasons, Barca on top, and low number of draws per round

I had many terrible seasons not just in La Liga but almost everywhere other than 1 or 2 pools, but La Liga seems to be my worst performance, which is also the league I watch the most, so I can concur with discussions above, watching a lot doesn't make you an expert (or doesn't make you lucky lol).

Anyway, don't forget tomorrow game again, time for Valencia to lose? Wink

but if watching football has any correlation, then I should stop watching PL games...

more watching leads to overthinking the score, and you should go with a flaw in first part of the season, second part is for improvement (not sure that it is working, but good theory dough)

whenever I change some score, it finished with exact score that I previously put and no points for me, so I decided to not changing score, but of course had to do it sometimes and ruin results

Eh, wow. Rayo won the game with final kick of the game, thought it was already 1-1 and only Trofo and fmbet took points but Elche lost their way apparently, 8 yellow cards, 7 in the second half, that's what I call truly costly, all for nothing to defend a point and then taken away in 8th min injury time.

Didn't watch though, was too busy watching Leicester win and helping me make up a terrible past week of betting!
I really needed this Rayo win. Maybe it didn't changed anything for me in pool, but at least they saved my bet. Switched to this game after 2nd Leicester goal and Rayo played better. While Elche  is heading straight to Segunda with such performance.
Of course they scored and ruined my perfect score. It seems I will have to stop running these pools, every pool I am running I am bottom of it while I am doing quite ok in the pools where I am just a participant. Go figure. I guess it is the added pressure getting to me Smiley Or maybe the fact that I am watching PL almost exclusively.

Yeah, poor Trofo and other guy. They got robbed, that's the truth. I'm not finding it easy to tell myself to do more of these 2-1's since when I do it it seems to hit more exacts than my other scores, but yeah I think Rayo saved a looot of people, judging from the markets I was looking at on p2p (also a strange game as it had more volume than usual but maybe Monday night football?).

Can't tell about how running a pool affects me. Currently am absolutely rooted to EPL bottom, doing so-so in UCL and here, not in any prize spots yet, but if watching football has any correlation, then I should stop watching PL games...

Sorry about missing your bet buway, but Real are like Liverpool, even if they drop points, losing is quite impossible to happen at home!

Real Madrid lost first points at home right ? As this is the first draw for them in LaLiga.  Shocked
Not just lost points in ordinary way, Real had a late penalty and Benzema managed to miss it. Too make things even worse they had numbers advantage that last 15 minutes as well.

Sociedad was the match of the day in Spain for sure, never would have thought there is any chance for more then 2 goals on that game. If we take into account all the leagues, Manchester derby was a bit better, higher profile of clubs made it my to go match and it didn't disappoint.

It's even more amazing for the circumstances of that game for sure! I was just mentioning yesterday we had such a good goal difference, and usually when I hope for Real to drop points, the outcome goes against it, at home too, and against Osasuna of all teams.

I have not been happy like this in La Liga for such a long time. I know it won't last but we can all dream Smiley

For some reason unknown to me, after the equalizer from Osasuna I still strongly believed Real Madrid will win the game, simply because that's how they often do, but Benzema failed to convert the late penalty which could have been the game winner and that ßÍßßgave Osasuna the chance to return home with a point.

At least the only take home as Barcelona is that we've gotten even with Real Madrid in terms of point and much better with goal difference.

Betis could've jumped into 3rd place today but instead they took a goal in minute 9 and a few minutes after a red card and basically game was over before first half ended. Celta Vigo after they scored , they kept the ball under control and gave few chances for Betis to score but I'm still happy as a Betis fan for seeing them in top 4 in LaLiga so far.

I originally have a European IP and I use VPN, so I try different European countries and everywhere the imgur tells me "error, try again later." So don't worry about your location, it's unlikely to be related.

Terrible results in the pool for me. The international break was bad for the teams (or for me  Grin ).
Not just for you. Not just this round, but whole season so far. And it's not even about place, it's about how little points in average I'm getting every round. I got burned big by Villarreal and I still have too much faith in Valencia, especially in away games where they got just 1 point so far.
If someone watched Girona - Real Sociedad game, you had to like it, 8 goals scored by both teams, it's hard to describe game in few words, you had to watch it. 3:5 Sociedad win brings me some money, but i
Now we have Real game and Ossasuna just made score 1:1. Very attractive live odds for Real.

I've had problems with imgur for a long time (maybe due to VPN, I don't know) so I stopped using it completely and now I use imbb mostly.

Atlético are leading 1-0 after the first half and the odds for their victory are still very attractive - 1.3. Do the bookmakers really think that reliable Simeone will allow the team to take risks and give Sevilla a chance?

Imgur's naughty towards non EU IPs, as I mentioned. It's always "Refreshing" for me to go home to my own land after some years and suddenly get blocked and slow service on almost every internet service I use. To remind me how shitty things can be for some people haha.

Anyway, Griezmann in at 61st min yesterday, the earliest he's been subbed in all season heh.

You got your betbuilder lost just by the 2+goal right slam? Spot on on the yellow cards too, and leading both halves, shame about the lack of goals... but better than drawing 3-3 honestly.

If it helps you feel good, I put a small bet on Osasuna Wink

I just realized we have a very good goal and defence, but the best was to keep a clean sheet, maybe only now to work on our bookings as we still ended up getting 4 yellows last night (I did expect many as usual).

Now Valencia is the one keeping us on track for another 0-0 game lol.

I don't think Barca will have an easy game tonight. They have lot of injuries: Depay, De Jon, Kounde, Araujo, Bellerin..... and most of their players were away for national duty. On the other hand, we have Mallorca that has been in training these whole 15 days preparing just for this match.

Yeah it didn't turn out easy even though Lewandowski scored early. But I'm happy for the win anyway, and can still hope as a dumb guy for Real to also drop points Wink

So not even a single person went for a draw. Can't believe I thought it was going to be a close one, so I only put 1 goal win, then they of course went to go 4 goals. Had a feeling for a lot of goals in other games but that was a sign for things this weekend I guess? Let's hope so Wink

Can't share bet right for Betbuilder and can't access imgur so my Betbuilder is Barca leading HT/FT, win by 2+goal, over 3.5 corner, both teams over 19.5 booking points Smiley = 5.55 exactly!
Strange, imgur is working fine for me, just tried it. Maybe it something about your location, if it is try to find alternative, there were at least 10 good options last time I researched those sites but forget about them in the meantime and just used imgur.

Anyone got tricked with Villareal? Haha... 0-0 man.

^GL with that BB! It looks solid, tbh. The Williams brothers stole the show, as they usually do... a bit of joy for them as they both got their 2nd caps for national team. One brother Inaki for Ghana, and the other for Spain (scored the winning goal that took them to Nations League finals). Amazing story.

Oh and yeah I use imgbb but it also screws up on the forum from time to time. Imgur is definitely not always friendly to Asian locations Wink

I fell for it too, there is no way I wouldn't have with Cadiz being the bottom dwellers, I expected a flawless win for Villarreal, but it's just football I'd say and the odds were tempting too tempting to be ignored.

Fun fact; Cadiz last 7 game have all ended with just one side scoring, only just 1 from their last 10 games have ended with both sides scoring, that's another stats to putting in to consideration next time.

it is not football, it is business, after all
did not know that fact about Griezmann, but it does not sound too "sportish" to have this kind of behavior,
That is regular clause that is put into the contract of most high profile players that sort of flopped in their team. That way you get rid of the player and have a chance to get decent amount of money back and the team that is buying has a safety in case that player really isn't good anymore.

Yeah, I only heard about it while watching Champions League, the game where Griezmann scored in 12 min injury time, and then the commentator was discussing how he played 50+ mins in that game giving Simeone a headache in the next game. Then it was revealed about that time.

Right after the game also Griezmann himself said it was difficult to sit on the bench wanting to play but knowing you can only play a certain amount of time. He wasn't complaining but you could see he was very frustrated about it.

I feel it's sort of unsportsmanlike too, that business gets into the spirit of the game. Same as those teams that sub on a player for just enough minutes to make sure they get their "medal" if they win a tournament, or # of caps in contracts, etc.

Crazy modern times huh?


it is not football, it is business, after all
did not know that fact about Griezmann, but it does not sound too "sportish" to have this kind of behavior, and it is connected just to money spent on player, IMO, this should not be allowed, because it directly influence player and team, and broadly speaking - it could be said that competition is not regular with that

but what a heck, they are not going to change, money above all
That is regular clause that is put into the contract of most high profile players that sort of flopped in their team. That way you get rid of the player and have a chance to get decent amount of money back and the team that is buying has a safety in case that player really isn't good anymore.

Problem is Atletico behavior here, and their decision to deny Barca their rightful money even if costs them some points along the way.

Another similar clause that is part of high profile young players is percentage of future transfers. Dinamo zagreb will get shitload of money for Guardiol transfer when he finally leaves Leipzig.
