Fuck off Pep, bringing Sane on in the 87th Minute

Was sure he would start with all the World Cup absentees. Think I’ll end in about 50, largely thanks to having 3 of our boys.

86 with another 20 odd on the bench. Expected the United-Leicester and Arsenal-City scores to be the other way around.

Got 72,happy enough, but moving up 3+ million spots in one day must be a personal best  ;D.

My watchlist really kicked ass, Shlupp Kante Neves but i had settled on Kenedy. For the Differential.  :( got that all right, and Obi-wan on the bench. i shoulda used the four. The mans name is Obi. Why didnt i use the four  :duh

lost my head to head to the RAWK leader on 111 points . oops

City have Huddersfield at home on Sunday and if Aguero starts he should score at least one. Have a bad feeling that Jesus might start!

I'm keeping him. He's looked sharp in pre season and will get them plenty, unfortunately.

60 points.  Played my wildcard already lol

I'm stocked with midfielders so can't bring Mané into the side without ditching at least one.  I'd also have to lose another Liverpool player - Alisson most likely.  :-\

It was also a pretty risky thing to do in week 1 considering that for a lot of sides you dont know who their starting XI is going to be .
Obviously it paid off for some, but I expect there were a lot more who didnt get much value from it.

So Sane didn't go to the World Cup, so you'd expect him to start the season ahead of Sterling, but he got benched in the first game. Has he had a falling out with Pep? Thinking of getting rid of him already may not start the next game either. Should I get rid of him? Will have 10.0m to buy another midfielder, De Bruyne? Dele Alli? Or someone else?

Yep, I had him and got rid already for Mane.

Much better having an "almost guaranteed starter" than a "who the hell knows" player...

On another note, I made three transfers on Sunday night.

Gini 5.5 Out Neves 5.0 In

Mkhitaryan Out 7.5 Richarlison 6.5 In

Sane 9.5 Out Mane 9.5 In.

So I should have banked 1.5, yet my balance is plus 1M?

How's that when no price taxes were involved yet?  ???

What's the thinking with this one?

Thinking of captaining Aguero but worried he may not start :/ May he play both?

City have an easy start this season so perhaps he will rotate them both to keep them fresh and sharp for the Nov/Dec run. But maybe he recognises the importance of a fast start to the season. This is why I rarely pick City players!

My feeling is Aguero plays better in bunches of games rather than be rotated. Whether it's been by accident or design it works for him. Imagine will play the first 4 before the break

Ive finished in the top 10k twice with no mancs. I just love that action  ;D

Last years Pogba failures were particularly enjoyable. I paid for it up front in the Ronaldo captain years though. Finished roughly last twice, was glad to see the back of him to say the least.

Lemme be clear...Sanchez does not strike the same fear in my heart  ;D

Ancient Chinese wisdom reveals this knowledge: Never take Mane out of your team. Serenity cannot flow past the chi without the unobstructed Trinity annihilating the low block of all evil first. It is known.

C Salah Firmino and Mane were literally the first 3 names on the team sheet and barring injury will see out the season like that. its 3 and 8 more people 3 and 8 more lets not overthink this.  ;D
