Another bad week for me on the last round, unable to keep may position on the leaderboard better as I'm dropping down a lot this week (out of the top 10 now). I feel that EPL this season is a bit harder to predict than last year  Sad but there are still so many rounds left and there are still many points to grab till the end of the season.
Well done for LFC as always, you are still the best till now IMO as you have more consistency in collecting points every round.

Congrats to bigdaddy as well for getting the yellow cap, you did very well last round. Keep on getting great prediction every round like what you did last round and you may beat all of us   Grin

Son is getting hate because it looked like a revenge tackle for that elbow he received a minute or 2 before. Sure, he did not mean to hurt him and Son really seems like a nice guy but this was reckless and the outcome is horrible. I honestly think it was not even a red card, but really foolish and unnecessary from Son.

Yes, players returned from leg breaks before, Carragher broke it and played 10 years at the highest level after it. But more often than not, it ruins careers.
Shaw is struggling, Ramsey never fully got his game back after it, Eduardo da Silva completely lost his.
The unluckiest one I remember was Djibril Cisse who broke both legs on 2 separate occasions - he still played for 10 years after the second one but on a much lower level.

I'm very happy!
And you should be, almost top 10. Congrats!

Also, I read on some newspaper speculation that is a possible career-ending, I hope they are wrong.
Is there even a full medical report from Everton? Newspapers sure love to exaggerate things. Coleman, his teammate, broke his tibia and fibula (I'd get you a picture but it is extremely graphic) and the guy is still playing in competitive football two years after that horrific injury so, don't believe such "news".

Oh shit! Such injuries is the worst part of sport.
I like Son a lot, but this foul was really stupid and not needed, it was obvious that's not going to end well. No surprise that he is getting lot of hate. Obviously he didn't wanted to hurt Gomes, and he was in tears after accident. Unfortunately, such things happens sometimes...

I don't think Son's foul made damage, more are from Aurier's start. Though it doesn't change the fact that its terrible injury.

Can't wait for upcoming Liverpool - City battle next week. It's 6 points game, especially when we look at the table. It can be even decisive in title race if Liverpool will win. As neutral fan probably I should wish City win, but damn, I know how many guys are waiting to see LFC finally winning EPL trophy...

Yep, a leg break. There is a clip on Twitter, it is 90 degrees. Looks truly horrible.
Oh god! I hope he recovers soon. These injuries sometimes really cost the career of a player. Son seems having really negative reaction from the social media. I do not think a player like him deserves this. It's just an accident.

There was few long VAR checks and a real bad injury for Andre Gomes. I am quite sure he broke his leg. They didn't show it on replay but it seemed to me on first watching that his foot was turned 90 degrees. Son and Aurier were involved in incident and they both looked like the are on verge of vomiting so it wasn't anything good. Hopefully he will make full recovery.

Just a mere 7.5 points for me so far, my all time low I think.
That's your all time low? I think I've gone an entire round with 3pts or something like that  Tongue

6,5 pts in total for me in this round and still going down in the leaderboard Sad  

Did anyone spot the bitcoin signs in the perimeter boards in the Everton vs Spurs game? Pretty cool (can't find a pic tho :/)...And then that awful injury, poor Andres Gomes, the sound of that was terrifying.

I was also wondering what the F** was going on. The goal in the 97th minutes and I was thinking this is it. I had the whole three point. But the match was going on! Checked the added minutes and saw 12 added minute. Did not watch the match but really wondering what was happening out there.

I also hit the correct score by the way. One of the best round for me 🤪

@LFC: City probably more gutted than Villa last night, when they scored their second, we were still trailing 0-1 haha. Seriously can't wait to host them now. 31 points after 11 games. Has that ever happened in EPL?

I was absolutely fuming that we were losing to them, I couldn’t believe we were about to drop points to Aston fucking Villa. I bet Pep was rubbing his hands together......but then the mentality giants found a way. AGAIN!!!!!

Did you see the Firmino disallowed goal by Martin Atkinson on the VAR? I’m sorry but he must have taken a bung. He, personally has tried to screw us numerous times. The media are picking up on it over here, he moved the lines several times to try & make Firmino appear offside.

Take a look - https://twitter.com/sennesation/status/1190991043451400192?s=21
Media picking up on it - https://twitter.com/beinsports/status/1190718797340000256?s=21

Luckily it didn’t cost us but this Martin Atkinson guy needs to be exposed.
Things like this can lose you a title because City are so close to us.

Any way, rant over. On to City next week, if we win you could possibly say there is real daylight between us but lose & they’re right on our tails.


I doubt it's anything to do with Atkinson but shityy var. Did he view the footage on the screen or just take the VAR guys word for it? Var isn't perfect in those sorts of calls because of the camera angle. The only way it would be ideal is if they have a camera running up and down the sidelines which would be silly.

I know a guy who paid £3,000 for a ticket for Madrid & it was a fake (obviously he didn’t know). The barcode didn’t scan & they ripped it up in front of him.

This is why I'd never but a ticket from a tout. Far too many scammers taking advantage. Would be great to see a final or maybe some sort of high stakes game at a major venue but I wouldn't shell out more than £100 or so unless it's maybe the El Classico or something.

Looks like Hilarious is going to be the new leader in the pool except Tottenham losses the match, then MoSala(I don't even know who that is  Huh) is going to take over.

Grabbed the full three points in the dying minutes:

Definitely do wish I had access to Sky boosts, that was incredible, and yeah guys I'm also waiting for someone to suggest a good legit subscription that also works ex-UK.

Darkstar sorted me out with a Dazn account but I'll probably need a dedicated Canadian IP to use it. Seems like they're only $2 a month with PureVPN for one so very cheap. You interested in Dazn? You can have two simultaneous connections  and 5 with Pure VPN.

0.50 difference. LFC_Bitcoin is at the top but the competition is really getting tight. 😊
By the way, I never thought that I will have a good week in this round. May be this is the highest I have in this week. 13! I can not complain. Today was a very good day for me. 1.5 from the first match and from the Tottenham match 3 points.
Good to see me in the top 10 🤪


LFC win - One hand on the trophy, 9 points clear?
Draw - I wouldn’t mind
City win - Shit they’re close, only 3 points behind Grin
You pretty much said it LOL
I hope have the first one.

If I paid that much, that guy who sold it to me would go with me to the entrance Grin
The craziest thing I heard is a guy I know who bought a ticket for King Kenny's Wembley final for 300 pounds, was fake, bought another one for 300 pounds, was fake again.
Then somebody told him to complain at the ticket office, he did that and they sold him a ticket (apparently they had some spares for such cases) for 75.

I paid £1500 each for 2 tickets for the CL Final in Kiev.
I was quoted £3500 each for tickets to the CL Final in Madrid. We said fuck that & went to Madrid with no tickets. Was great fun & an amazing atmosphere, drinking in the fan park from 10:00 hrs.

Holy s**t!!
I mean, I understand that. My friends went, paid 400 euros each in 10th minute of the game in Kiev. Went to Madrid, couldn't get one as well, not even in the 60th minute.

I did not want to go to Kiev knowing I don't have enough for a ticket, Madrid was even worse. I'll pick some of these 'off' games like Salzburg away, that and a trip to Liverpool every 2-3 years is all I can currently afford.

I had a ticket for Wolves last season, Kop. 2 or 3 months before the game, when we were top of the league, tickets were being sold for a few thousand pounds. Really unbelievable.

@Pamoldar - I’m not no, guy is charging £400 per ticket or £750 per ticket in hospitality.
I will not pay those prices unless it’s right at the end of the season & we are going to lift the trophy. For Kiev & Madrid no problem but no way in November when we’ve won nothing.
This is insane 😆
These guys waits for the right time LOL
They surely have people to buy even at that price.
Anyway, doesn't matter if you are watching it from the gallery or home, we need to show them (City) that we are the true champ this year. This will be a hell of a match.

It’s going to be pulsating game. I just hope no wrong decisions from referee or VAR.

I usually get my tickets normal price or a little bit over. No more than £100 each. I am going to the Genk game on Tuesday.
