Holy.. Is anybody else watching this rn? Arteta and his boy at Arsenal mad. 
I def didn't expect this.

@Trofo yeah, you have certain players that need conditioning first before they play a preferred style/tempo, and not many clubs/managers recruit players for conditioning -- which is something almost certainly Liverpool currently does, but yeah you have to push through some pain barriers at first to get there and not all players are willing also. Trent's another lightweight player who's been asked to get stronger every day at training so it's not impossible to fix some weaknesses.
Oh I've hit 4/7 back to back now but yeah one of the big Six always screws it up. This last one was Liverpool haha (Robbo only scoring).

Don't forget to put up your picks in Superbru and FJ majestic 7 new match day starts this evening with Chelsea game. I again had 4 correct in Majestic 7, damn really had high hopes for this one and Salah and Auba came very close to scoring a goal and getting me a free bet at least.
I had 4 correct picks more than 4/5 times and yet to have at-least 5 picks to have something, winning 1 BTC seems to be a dream for everyone. I already made my picks and I think for us its better discussing on their official ANN. With that thought I made a post there: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.54793352

Gotta give them credit, they stood up well most of the time but Southampton did look stronger and fitter. I personally remember playing full games 2/3 times a week and at my peak I didn't feel more tired, unless I had injuries but keeping the same team playing keeps you sharp and build mental telepathy haha. But I agree, if your players aren't fit (as clearly Pogba showed) then you don't keep playing them.
There is pros and cons for keeping the team same or rotating it every game. Maybe the best balance for me is a squad of about 14 players where all of them get similar minutes on the pitch (except goalkeeper). Not all players are same and while some can play a full game every 2 days there are others who can't. United has quite young squad, especially in the attack so they don't have to do many substitutions but I feel like they should rotate their midfield players a bit. Maybe Fernandez can play every game, he is on the low side with his weight and I guess he has high fitness. Pogba and Matic probably can't keep that tempo so maybe Fred and McTominay should get some starts. Defenders usually do a little less running so they should be fine.

I'm glad they got the goal for the draw as that means no points for anyone. Four people went with 2-1 including tokeweed and LTU_btc which would have moved the later to one point behind me.
Good thing is that there are competition in between all of us too to have better points in the pool. Yeah, most often I expect results even if I am with the winning side when I see the closest of mine will get much point than me. Like say in a match I have 3 - 0 and another one have 3 - 1. If the score is 2 - 1 then I always pray not to have another goal for the team I picked instead the opponent to score one more goal. This way a 3 - 1 will not give him full 3 points and me only to have 1 point 🤪But it seems if you really do not do well in the upcoming 3 rounds than it will be harder for me to be in the first 5 considering 2nd position is gone for me already 😒
Toke is the one who can have peace. Damn Toke!

As a Chelsea fan, dieing down due to our most recent lost that almond cost us our 3rd spot on the table, I'm the most relief seeing United drawing with Southampton and most importantly, seeing them still 5th on the table.
As a Liverpool fan, seeing United drop points is always a joy, but sweeter when they're the clear favourites and form team (I had Saints at 12/1 to win!) but no worries, you'll get past Norwich, but I'm not sure your defence will hold! Meeting us will be a different matter though;)
As I say in my previous post here, Ole insist to play with the same players last four or five games, probably he doesn't even know why. it was obvious they were tired, plus they played under pressure because they could have made significant progress on the table. Of course, in the last 10 minutes, it was obvious that their performance disintegrated. Close to Mourinho style.
Anyway it will be interesting, Chelsea also needs to play against Liverpool, and it will be very foolish to expect 3 clear points from there. There are no guaranteed points in his last match against Wolves.

Wow, what a round - 8,5 points is the maximum collected so far.
No point for anyone in the last game. What a petty for Utd to drew with Southampton.The pool is getting more challenging for me. Now MoSalah took my place and ahead by 3 points. I need to do something to have a good round for me. Round 36 is starting with Chelsea match. Are they going to win or we are waiting for any unpleasant surprise?

Anyone anticipating any thrashings in the next few games? Chelsea playing Norwich tonight who are already relegated and have also lost their last 8 games. Chelsea are only point ahead of Leicester and Man U so need to keep hold of the Europe spots and Wolves and Sheff United are gunning for them as well. Man City Bournemouth tomorrow and that could be a drubbing. They've been playing pretty shit lately except for the bizarre 4-1 win they go against Leicester last week. Away to Man City I don't think they'll be that lucky though.

Saints ruined the party for United, who were in 3rd place for a good hour, until that Obafemi bundled in goal. Damn, but with City's news today (that was stupid wasn't it guys, I mean how do you overturn a ban unless it's even more money involved?), it's going to be crazy to see who gets the CL spots. It's all down to United vs Leicester.

I did lost hope around the 90th minutes until that corner was awarded to Southampton then regain some believe that the saints meant get a point and thankfully it happen as I wished.
With the United draw and Leicester lost we're still one of the favorite to end the season in top4 and I'm quite sure the boys won't make that mistake again as we play Norwich tommorow. This time we'll be getting the 3 boldly written on our jersey as scoreline (Chelsea 3-0 Norwish)

Wow, what a round - 8,5 points is the maximum collected so far.
it was a weekend full of surprises: a Liverpool draw, Chelsea getting crushed by Sheffield, a shocking win for Spurs, and then Bournemouth with the biggest upset.but let's stop with the surprises, yeah?
I have a 3-0 win for Man Utd in the pool. One of the easiest games for Ole & Co in this final stage of the season.I thought about a possible outcome on the Liverpool draw game, but I changed from 1:1 to 1:0, I didn't want to take any risk here.
Also, I am not sure about ManU game that is so easy, they know that they can top up to 3rd place, and there is for sure some pressure to all players. I think it's most obvious on Pogba. I picked 3:1, so now I am waiting for one goal to get the exact score.

If nobody from the top 7 gets the correct result tonight, we won't breach the 10 pts barrier
I did some research because I wanted to know if it happened so far and we were close to it 3 times (10,5 points in round 8 and 10 pts in rounds 25 & 32), but actually already ended below 10 in round 28 (8,5 points).
Good old Rafa would say 'we must improve'
But sadly now we cannot improve in this round we have to wait for next season and then surely we are going to do something good and improved. If nobody from the top 7 gets the correct result tonight, we won't breach the 10 pts barrier

Manchester United is in great shape and fighting for a place for the Champions League
Southampton without any clear way laying in the middle of the table, but able to score goals
My pool pick is 3:1 and I will take a risk and make a bet on an Asian handicap -1.5 on MUTD
In Pool I already done this same choice as I am also looking currently Manchester United players are doing great job and they can ruined this Southampton side with few goals as now city rivals already in Champions League and they have good chance to qualify after winning this match.

What the hell happened to Leicester? 1-0 up until the 67th minute and on aim to get me a correct score then they ended up losing 4-1. Anyone going for anything other than a home win on tonight's game? United have been playing pretty well recently and should win but Southampton have had some good results as well including beating Man City.
They don't deserve to qualify for Europe and doubt they will. Hopefully Wilves or Sheffield will instead. Regardless you moved up there places to sixth behind me. It's going to be real hard to hold on to the top 5 spots as it's so close.
I watched Tottenham vs Arsenal game, they killed my interest in football today. I'm not sure what their tactics are (for both teams). I hope none of them will qualify to European cups in next season, it will only embarrass Premier League. because of them, I missed an obviously good match between Bournemouth and Leicester. I think, Leicester going out of top 5 for sure. They can't play without Madison and Soyuncu against Wolves and Man Utd.
There are only few teams play seriously with desire to win(Man Utd, Sheffield, Wolves). All other from the middle of the table play just to finish this season, like Everton, Newcastle, Crystal Palace... Really hope, West Ham, Watford can stay in PL.
