Used my wildcard last week and got 87 points which has got me out of the bottom 10 in some leagues I'm in, wouldn't have had to use it if I hadn't benched Son for the United game where he got 20-odd points lol. Not so good this week, 28 points with 2 to play, My team atm is:

Ryan
Castagne, Dallas, Kilman, Robertson
Salah, Foden, Bruno Fernandes, Son
DCL, Kane(c)
(Steele, ASM, Mitchell, Brewster)

Really should have joined you guys' league

 

Surely you still can? If you were playing from the start, does it make any odds if you join late?

Feel free to join now. The more competition, the better.

 

Thanks for this, really cool perspective.

 

I was under the impression that you'd be on 0 if you joined a league late regardless of what week you started on, is that not the case?

Edit: Fuck it, will join anyway though

 

Nah, you can join a league at any time and you'll always have your overall score so far.

 

Yeesh. Brighton looked as if they started that second half after having already played 90 minutes.

 

Burnley away is always the most boring game of the year

 

Such a tame game so far but credit to Burnley for doing a "job" on Spurs' attack. They've even had the better chances if you can call them that.

 

0-0 suits my fantasy team just fine, so I'll allow it

 

Yeeeeeessss. Yeeeeeessss. Stay boring and terrible!

 

Not watching the game but I presume Burnley have worked out that you shouldn't give Son and Kane 40+ yards of space behind your defensive line.

 

Does that count as a Kane assist?

 

Kane saving a goal and then creating one. He is unreal.

 

Back to back clean sheets after the west ham debacle is nice to see

 

He also has 5G and 8A in 6 league games

 

he’s good imo.

 

David Squires on ... Marcus Rashford v the Tory government

 

The return of Poppyman in the run up to November.

 

The Simpsons reference at the end made this absolutely perfect haha

 

Ngl, this is the best chance for Spurs to win the league. Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, City and United all look weak.

I do wonder though if all the teams in Europe may struggle in the second half even more. Could give someone like Everton or Wolves a chance.

 

The Newcastle VAR shit and the West Ham bottle are 4 points that would have us at the top right now. But the team looks to be growing a better mentality under Mourinho despite those 2 results and the depth is the best we've ever had. If we don't do it this year it'll never happen in my lifetime lol

 

I don't want to sour our chances but we also haven't played any of the bigger times yet besides United. That stretch in November/December of City/Chelsea/Arsenal/Liverpool/Leicester will determine a lot and show me what the team fully is.

 

Yeqh this is the counterpoint I guess. The only truly good team you have played, you also lost to. As always, it will hard to tell until Christmas.

 

uhhh why?
