3 exact scores is not lucky, you could have done it on the spin but they were great picks regardless. The 3 you got wrong were the most difficult to predict this round. Great job buddy.

The Newcastle game gave me my second correct score of last week and also was the final game in a bet I had, so it was a good finish to the match week. It did not help that almost everyone else got the correct score for that final game.

So, another year for me fighting in the top poistions of this pool in the early stages? First one ended up in second place losing it by one points, and the past season ended up in a disaster and outside the paid spots in the last rounds. How is gonna end this year?

I still have my hate to one team who always find the way to fuck my selections, and that shit team is Crystal Palace, what a peice of crap they are.

Thanks guys 


You just need to have a lucky streak of exact scores to help you climb the leaderboard.

As for my case, I was unexpectedly lucky....



I actually forgot to put in my prediction for the week and missed Southampton - Manchester United game. It took me less than 2 minutes to filll the rest of it because I was about to hang out and yeah my points were rubbish for the first 6 games then somehow hit 4 exact scores..... pure luck for some reason

Newcastle 3rd in Premier League 
This was an impressive comeback for Newcastle and win against Wolves in last 15 minutes, but they ruined my prediction in superbru  
I had terrible performance in this round and I dropped hard in leaderboard with worst result and wooden reward.
Congrats Arallmuus 🔥

Congrats Arallmuus, 18 steps ahead is a good jump. I am not making a good progress, struggling at 41th position.

Congrats to arallmuus for winning the Round 4 Yellow Cap

He makes goal scoring look so easy. For a league that has had so many great goal scorers he still somehow blows everyone's mind with his stats. Whatever they paid for him, it was a steal of a price.

I think Sean Dyche may secretly like the thrill of the nerve racking relegation battle so he sets up his side to fail, only to recover in the second half of the season.

Man Pep must be sleeping hard at night wondering what happens if Haaland is injured or gone.

Brighton? I don't know, I saw they should have won, but like I said, Liverpool or City was bound to lose.

Everton! It must be even feeling worse than Southampton and Ipswich to be getting such bad results.


Best feeling in the world lol

Anthony tried all possible best to make more money to the FA - the new rules are joke -  refs can make a decision and players can't even react about it or speak to them about it. I miss those days when players would talk in faces of refs for being a pussy, now you dare not. Just play and don't speak.

I remember Sterling was only 17 or 18 back then I didn't know about his contract situation with Liverpool until now. Crazy scenes...


The moment they turned a shitty Sanchez into a prime Buffon I knew they were done for. It feels good to play shit and still win. 

Damn what happened with Liverpool today against Nottingham?
I didnt watch the match, but they ruined my great ticket on Sportsbet, I said I wont add this low odds anymore and I did it again  
Very poor performance for me this round in superbru, last two matches are my last hope.

Chelsea is a mess of a team, and they wasted so much money this season for nothing.
But look at poor Everton, this guys are going down to Championship super fast.

That was a great game to watch. By the way Cherries were killing Chelsea and I have no idea how they haven't scored. Probably just because I had both to score on the ticket. They even missed a penalty and hit a couple of woodworks.

Finally had time to properly watch some of the games. Wife isn't happy but I had a marathon today, second half of United, then a mix of Liverpool/City/Palace then whole Villa and whole Chelsea games  That is what a proper Saturday should look like.

Finally, Arne Slot is brought back to the ground, I couldn't bear to watch Liverpool in injury time, I was sure we would even concede a second. Guess we all might as well give City the title. Again.

Oh and Bournemouth-Chelsea, 14 yellow cards (not even counting 1 for Enzo), the 13th already breaking an 80-year old record, I heard the commentator say. And we thought United-Arsenal would forever be the spectacle of bookings. Nkunku of course scores, and what the hell was that celebration? Haha. What's the punishment again when a team gets more than 5 yellows? Or is it just a fine?


Then you know the hurt. I saw you mentioned above Mount was offered 200k a week -- wow! And he thought that wasn't enough? I don't remember the numbers we offered Sterling back then but he was a teenager, and we were prepared to make him a record offer. Liverpool never paid big wages but we were ready to break the bank for him. A kid! To earn more than Carra who was just retiring, imagine, and he thought it was not enough. We put him on the stage. Rafa saw something in him, Rogers trusted him with senior games... and yeah, he got big-headed. I remember he even went on some interview that the club knew nothing about and shat on Liverpool.

Anyway, yes, still wish him the best, but I am sure he always looks back. I hope he always does.

While Fulham draw also helped get some green arrow trend to move up 5 positions, I’m still pretty much deep into the middle of the pile, hopefully of the trend can extend further, then perhaps I could break into the 15-20 position.

Everton is doing some pissing contest, because how they’ve managed to throw away a 2 goal lead for 2nd consecutive match day is quite beyond me, those are 6 important points that could end up being what would determine their season at the end of the league.

Brilliant game plan from 'Forest - 2 wins and 2 draws to start the season is a perfect way to start a season and give yourself a good shout to stay out of the relegation zone. They were helped today by Liverpool not forcing the game enough, but they were very impressive and that goes to show the level of competitiveness in the league.

Brentford almost stealing a point too, but Halaand was just too good again.

The Fulham draw helped me climb some places on the table, so not a bad start to matchweek 4

You're right Liverpool are back on the brink after Nottingham Forest beat them at Anfield. And Manchester City are still being carried by Haaland.

Brighton seems to have started to falter again? Against Ipswich still struggling even though they control everything and even more annoying is Liverpool in the Superbru Pot all guessed wrong.

I thought I was scoring an exact point until at the last minutes Alejandro scored the 3rd for Utd. 1.5 points lost in a minute difference LOL

I can not remember.

Wow Manchester United 3-0, when was the last time you could say something like this as a sure thing? What is more Rashford even scored, the world must be ending soon.

I guess next City and Liverpool will lose and Everton will be top of the league again lol


Shit, reading up I didn't know about Sterling and Mount rejecting good deals to move. I totally forgot about that or didn't know about it. Its not just England for sure, everywhere are moneygrabbers.

Hope you know we have a better Net spend and a way better wage structure than Manutd?


He was asking for far more than he was worth; if we give every spoilt Cobham bastard everything they want simply because they grew up in Cobham, we would no longer be running a football club, but rather a Cobham family ties.

Spoilt Micky Mount rejected a £200k/week (excluding bonuses) deal to accept the same amount at Manutd. We didn't take anything away from him; he was never a proper Chelsea, and did you see how his dad and entire family reacted when he signed the Manutd deal?

With how many billions spent yet we only have one win against Manchester united in last how many seasons?

He won a trophy last season, what did Chelsea get? Conference league qualifications ha.

Not bringing the youth and women teams into this conversation, I know Chelsea leads in that but all I'm saying is he was worth that salary increase (as I think about it). He loved it at Chelsea but he wasn't given the respect back.

He wasn't asking for much if we're being honest here. He would had been a better player if he was still playing for his boy hood club but we took that away from him and now he's in a foreign environment that doesn't match his spirit.

I don't mind we bringing him back, right now injuries is killing his career and that's just sad for the potentials he had. Chelsea didn't fight to keep him.

Chelsea is better off without Mount, and everyone we have in his place is an upgrade on Mount, and Chelsea finished ahead of Manuted last season; he is only playing Europa because they won the FA Cup and qualified automatically.

Moving from Chelsea to the current Manchester United team is never an upgrade; we are far a better team. From youths to the women's and men's teams, including training equipment. 

Mount is a bang mediocre player who is already being exposed. A £140k/week player.
