@Pamoldar well if I creep back into Top 20 this week I'll be happy cause it'll probably mean I won either my crazy ticket or my acca.

Not sure about you but the way the matches are progressing I thin we will see an upset week this week. I am having a feeling that we will have lowest scores in the pool again like a week we have few weeks ago.

Utd lost, City and Liverpool both are behind - Newcastle and Shuff on fire! Let's see how we end this matches.

Guys, come on. Am I the only one who went for the predictable Bournemouth win? Harry Wilson, our boy, he should have been on the scoresheet too, or at least one assist in the second half when he missed 2 unmarked players to his left.

United losing away really isn't a surprise anymore, right? =p My only mistake here was overestimating them, (I predicted 2-1, thinking they would get their usual penalty and somehow find a way to score).

I've got an interesting day ahead of me. 2 accas, and 1 unrealistic ticket. They're all sort of hedges against each other.

@Pamoldar well if I creep back into Top 20 this week I'll be happy cause it'll probably mean I won either my crazy ticket or my acca.

@tomahawk They're absolutely not the same Wolves, but when they can click, as they reminded us at Etihad, they know how to punish. And Arsenal also, keep reminding me they're the same flimsy lightweights. As you say though, it's more formation than form right now for the Gunners. If Emery is still stubborn I have a chance.

Oh and, Liverpool AND City down 1 goal? I hate VAR =p From my view, Villa's goal marginally offside, and Bobby marginally onside. But I suppose offside tech is flawless (right?). But ok at least we're attacking. So different when we rest Fabinho!

Gentlemen, welcome back to what matters in life.

@hilarious ludicrous scoreline is def coming for City but not against Soton for sure, they still bear scars and won't want to open wounds so soon. I

I somewhat agree with you, Southampton will be playing very consciously and I don't see City stepping on the gas too much as well, It should be comfortable win for City though, but I think at most an 3 nil scoreline.

Wooow... Just when you think Man United is getting back on track, a mostly low but mid table club tells them... 'NOPE!'. Cheesy

I had the same opinion too man! And Thanks to Man Utd's mediocrity I'm starting of the week with zero points. Maybe I'll find some luck in the usual 3PM (now 4PM btw) fixtures.

I had Sheffield and West Ham to both win their fixtures 2 - 1, but now I think of going with a draw for all other 3 fixtures except Arsenal, Liverpool and City, maybe I can get lucky with at least two.

I went for a draw on my ticket, don't even remember what I picked in the predictor. But one thing is for sure - I am giving this United team too much credit based on previous results.

They play truly awful, I do not know why I constantly think they will turn it around. They deserve the position they are in and I will start treating them like it.

Well they are 1 - 0 down. Possibly another draw or lose awaiting for them but if my prediction gets true then I can expect a 1 - 2 win for Utd and to have a correct score. But I am really not sure if this will be final outcome. I am in doubt that even they may lose the match.

Just one member with 1.5 points other all pool with big zero very disappointed with this result.

only what is good from this game no one of the top players on the leaderboard has zero points.
I don't know why I watch Manchester United games. like I'm a masochist. No passion, no will, only one or two players look like something. Ole has no capacity to lead the serious club and for sure not Manchester United. He needs to go back to Norway league.

Tell you what looks good value, Wolves away win. Arsenal are light as ever and can't deal with some sass which the Mexicans can do. I parlayed that with pool for 6/1.

I was about to go for a Wolves ML in a parlay, but then I thought "this isn't the same Watford from last season", they're more inconsistent, plus if Emery plays his cards right and goes for Auba/Laca/Pepe in the starting XI with Ozil as the creative midfielder, they could wreak havoc in Wolves defence who's missing Boly.

Will United comfortably win or will they slip up and return to the previous poor form from a few weeks ago?

Hopefully not, I have Man Utd and over 1.5 in one of my acca. They're unbeaten in their last 4 games, lost only one game in their last 8, to me they look more solid than Bournemouth.

One bad week & you can probably lose 5-6 places on the leader board.

Yup... And I stopped caring. I'm just gonna go Lawro mode soon if I lose any more places. Lol.

Anyway what do you guys think of the Wolves, draw no bet at 3.67, away vs Arsenal? Seems like nice value.

I really had a busy week so did not find time to make the picks. I will be doing them now. I still have FJM to pick too LOL
By the way, not sure about other matches but for Liverpool I am going with a 1 - 2 win.

Talking about the pool, man! I really need to go a long way. This is where I stand LOL

My goal is to have be in the top 10 place this week

A few people still need to put their scores in.

What does everyone think of this weeks opening match between Bournemouth and Man U? Will United comfortably win or will they slip up and return to the previous poor form from a few weeks ago? I think United should win but I don't think it will be easy as Bournemouth are at home and also on equal points with them and for that reason I might go for the draw.

No real games I'm that interested in watching today other than the City game but only in the hope that it'll be a goalfest. I didn't actually realise that City played Southampton in the EFL cup on Tuesday. They beat them 3-1 but with a weakened team. I'll probably actually go for a 4 or 5-0 on the rematch but as I said before I wouldn't be surprised if it was much more but City might put another weakened side out due to the Champions League on Tuesday.

Also still looking for this:

It's both a good and bad thing (depending on where you are in the table Grin

). My only issue with superbru is the scoring. I think you should get more points for an exact score and with getting 1.5 points for a close score it makes the table even closer. Something like 1 point for the outcome and 5 for the exact score would be more preferable imo.

You say that because you have 3 exact scores and all other wrongs in the last round. Grin

Lol. Well I actually didn't realise that but I have stated a few times that the points system would be better if it was changed, but since you mentioned it getting three correct scores and finishing mid table for the round is quite harsh Grin

. I think the BBC site we used when I first started the pool was something like 10 points for a correct outcome and 40 for the exact score and that was much better. I like that you can get an extra half a point for a close score on superbru but it makes things far too close in my opinion and getting a correct score should get you a significant bonus since it's relatively hard to do (and getting just the outcome right isn't that difficult).

BTW, does anyone have a SkyGo account that they'd be willing to share access to? I can pay for such. Tried to sort accounts for both Dazn and Hotstar but no luck so far.

If Leicester can beat them 9-0 away could it be even worse for them at the Etihad?

Nah, mainly because those kind of scorelines are extremely rare in professional football. How many times have you seen a team conceding something like 16 goals (or more) in just two games? Only in those 5th division games and youth academy football lol I'll go with something like 3-0 or 4-0, comfortable win for City but nothing crazy since they have Champions League next week.

I'm used to it, I'm stuck between 14th (decent week) position and 20th (a bad week) position. I feel like a mid-table team Sad

I anyone going to go for a ludicrous scoreline on the Man City / Southampton game this weekend? If Leicester can beat them 9-0 away could it be even worse for them at the Etihad? City beat Watford at home 8-0 last month so could they eclipse that? Not sure I'd go for that sort of result but it wouldn't surprise me. I'll probably go for somewhere in the middle. No real thrilling games this weekend really or none I'm that interested in watching except for maybe the possibility of a goalfest in the City game.

That Southampton 0-9 Leicester was a freak scoreline, that score has only been matched once & it was Man Utd vs Ipswich in the 1990’s.

City will batter Saints but I don’t think it’ll be as high as 9-0. Maybe something like 4-0 or 5-0. The game against Leicester they had 10 men for most of it. You’d hole for their sake that the manager has kicked ass & they’ll fight a lot more on the pitch to avoid another humiliation.

Well I don't think it will either, but a team like City should be hammering the shitters regularly by half a dozen goals really. They've already had a couple of 5-0's this season and if they can beat Watford 8-0 and 6-0 this season then I don't think it's out of the question to see a similar score line again or even more. I know Southampton will want to bounce back but that's easier said than done against City at their homeground.

I do not think it could happen again. Southampton they will play much more cautiously with much more respect to Man City than they had to Leicester. I think he will make maximum effort to avoid another humiliation, although it would be "acceptable" against the Man.City.
very interesting for predict is Arsenal vs. Wolverhampton and Everton vs Tottenham wherein each result is possible. I lost a lot of points on Everton and Wolves games.
