Big game for us tomorrow in the early kick off vs Leicester. We can’t really afford to lose in all honesty. The title is gone for us but we need to really put some good results together to guarantee a top 4 finish. No CL next season would be a disaster.

My predictions are in Smiley

I don’t think Liverpool will lose I predicted a 1-3 win for them.Did anyone notice that this is another week with more than ten games as it has two additional games which means it is a 12 legs week and there is big room for improvement for everyone.

In a bid to further my positions in this group, I've gone for a lot of draws. Have a good feeling we'll be seeing cautious teams set out especially with the big four or big six anyway, because of Europe competition coming up. City will play their game in hand for this round too, pretty tough Spurs and Everton. Big wins still expected though they're on fire the whole time now with a dozen consecutive wins!

I've gone for 3 draws this week and mostly home wins. Not sure many of this big six will have much trouble expect for maybe Liverpool against Leicester. I'll be watching that game for sure as anything could happen. I definitely don't trust Liverpool to win especially away but I think they are due a bounce back but Leicester will probably be at full capacity with Vardy back. Hopefully there's lot of goals. Same in the Arsenal/Leeds game. Can't pick a winner from that so a draw is probably the best bet. I'll probably put my high odds both teams to score in both halves/2 corners each team each half and 2 cards each team as I think they could be fiery games.

I think Germany is a great country and they should absolutely make an exception for one of their respected citizens to allow him to take place to his mother funeral.It is out of my scope of understanding how can someone with Klopp status to miss this funeral.The goverment of Germany should act immediately and make an exception in my opinion.

If this was a politician or a royalty, you can be sure they would have made the exception immediately. I feel so bad for him even though he is not my team coach, but he is a nice guy and this is a blow. I agree with hilarious though with all due respect, I die and I prefer to just have a hospital cremation with nothing left not even the jar to keep my ashes. Save my family some funeral costs too:P

I'll probably go for a draw if Vardy is playing. Maybe Liverpool can turn things around in that game though.
I will go for a win as usual no matter who plays in the final XI from both teams. It will be a very close match for sure so my preference will be 1 - 2 or 0 - 1. I think there are still plenty of matches left so maybe we cannot say that we are done yet. Few slips from the top teams, and few good rounds might give our confidence back.

Are you thinking with your heart here and not your head?  Grin I think it should be close but I think a draw is likely for me given Liverpool's shakiness. I certainly don't trust them to win especially away and it looks like Vardy will be starting as he started in the cup tie but was taken off halfway I think.

Could not agree less with this. I feel sorry for Klopp but why would his grief be more important than grief from some anonymous who lost his mother? If there are rules, they should be same for everybody. Germany is a great country because of that and they are strong enough to not cave in to outside request. Good example of this is that all German clubs playing in Euro competitions have to play their home matches outside of country if their opponent is from red listed country.

Yeah, it shouldn't be one rule for us and a different rule for the rich and famous where they get a free pass to travel around as they like. However, I don't think the restrictions should be so severe that you can't travel for things like funerals. Covid is hardly the plague. He's being tested for covid every week as well along with the team so if he's clean then he should be allowed to go but as should everyone else regardless of their status. I think people coming back to the UK also have to quarantine for two weeks so the risk is minimal there, though maybe that would be a problem if he had to miss several Liverpool games. Personally, I don't think funerals are a big deal anyway. I don't even want one. Once you're gone you're gone but I know people have differing beliefs and feelings towards that.

I got a hat but didn't get the coupon, I got a message from Steve asking for the username and I answered him and I don't know if he forgot!!  Grin

Just message him again either on here or superbru.

Well it can surely be read that way and I agree 100% that the rules should be the same for everyone.However I am sure Germans would not mind and not ask the same if for Klopp is made an exception,I know their mentality as I have lived there for a couple of years.They respect a lot their “bekannte-well known” figures of their country.

The lack of motivation in the pool is temporary, I am well aware of it and I know one of two good round will bring me back but it hurts the way boys are performing lately.

Im not sure if this will make you feel better but I was on top 5 for few early weeks then I keep on sliding down the line ( IIRC I was on 2nd position and was trying to close my gap to Tomahawk's point ) and now Im on 20th, it is sucks.

My point is apart from Tomahawk , everyone has been really inconsistent but you know that you dont have to get into top ten. You just need to win the Yellow cap and aim for the freebets to make up for it. As long as you get back your buy in fee for the pool then its good enough

News broke today that Klopp’s Mother died, he can’t go to the funeral as Germany has banned UK arrivals due to covid. Terrible news, hopefully Klopp is OK & the players sort their form out for their manager, he deserves it.

This is sad. I really feel bad after reading this. Imagine not being able to attend your own mother's funeral

Skybet is pretty good with promos and offers lots of different accumulator selections and you can make your own easily with the request-a-bet feature. They're pretty much the only site I use because I like the free £5 bet they give you every week as long as you bet £25 and I usually rack them up to save when I'm on a bit of a loss run to try recoup my money. Occasionally they give you free bets for other stuff as well. You could probably use it with a proxy I guess, especially if you'ver already got an account registered with them.

I'm going to check actually yeah. I was forced to re-KYC on a few bookies and couldn't any longer back in 2018 as they need fresh new bills and I no longer stay there. I'll def find out and actually next season I'm seriously thinking of paying through the nose to get a SKY connection anyway as I'm moving house (not by choice so might as well pimp it up).

He should go... I feel so bad, I remember a past interview once during covid where he said the only things he worries about in life was the health of his parents. Typical wholesome guy. Let him grieve, and let the boys win everything for him. They owe it to him.

38th position

Lol Im on 20th. At this point I dont think I might make it to top ten but atleast I'll do my best on every round to get another freebets. Does sportsbets still give 5mbtc freebets for the yellow cap winner?



You still get a free bet for winning it but I think it's $50.

Really, it is sad news, and I hope that this does not affect the klopp’s and the Liverpool FC and the club's return to many victories and competition for the title.

^  Damn...  Sucks.  That could either get him and his boys fired up or further decline.  But squad for squad, man for man and the styles of play, I’m still leaning Liverpool.

RIP Mommy Klopp.

stay motivated, and Liverpool should too, it is not finished yet, we will beat City at Goodison to get your hopes back
I really hope Liverpool come back and start winning the matches from the next round. There are two consecutive home loses, 10 points behind from the top team on the table, poor defense, forwards are not in their best shapes. There are many things wrong with the team right now.



City have a game in hand as well which they'll be playing at the end of this round on the 17th. Liverpool's next game is against Leicester away and that could be tough for them but Leicester have bene hit and miss recently. Vardy should be back now and starting as he played the last 30 mins in their last game. They have a cup game tonight though but seems Rodgers is going to be giving some youngsters a game: https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/jamie-vardy-timothy-castagne-injury-4980506

I'll probably go for a draw if Vardy is playing. Maybe Liverpool can turn things around in that game though.

Yup.  I’d also be comfy betting Liverpool win to nil if the line is good.  City and Leicester are worlds apart in how they play.  And I don’t think Rodgers would be playing his squad to press as hard as Pep does his.  It could even be a boring game.  I feel like it’s 0 - 1 for LFC.

Everyone is climbing up to the top and I am sliding down to the bottom. My best is top 5 and now down to 8th in the leader-board. It all started with a pick I missed in the round before last round. From the last two rounds my collection is only 15.5

I think I am losing my interest from the pool. It's obvious the recent performance of Liverpool is effecting my motivation.

You should keep going.I once won the yellow cap together with another member and since then my motivation has been up and so the places on the leaderboard coming from 49 to 26-29 places lately.I am still hopeful so you should be too as there are plenty of games to be played and emotions to be felt.

do not be like that, your are still top 10, I am hoovering around position 45 from the beginning, and still not missing rounds, think that have not any position within top10 in a round
and last two rounds were a bit better, but far from any success in guessing exact scores

Superbru is actually sending mail after rounds where you were better than average, and I just found out that few rounds ago, since all my rounds before that were lower than average

but, nevertheless, it is just a game, I change my expectations from top 5 in the beginning, to be within better half till the end, not easy, but not impossible, currently on 36th

stay motivated, and Liverpool should too, it is not finished yet, we will beat City at Goodison to get your hopes back
