There's a thread on caf started today. Had never even heard of him before :lol:
:D Knew as soon as I looked at the teams interested that Varun would have shortlisted him after the thread was made on the caf. That pass of his was ridiculous.
I thought it was just because of the rumoured Spurs interest that was doing the rounds, but then I seen that thread. I've never seen that pass before either :drool:
Poor Pavard
Pavard is very happy where he is thank you :lol:

I think the lack of rotation over last few games has contributed. Pretty much all of your first XI are in the red.

The game has a mind of its own though. You can have a strategy that goes well then suddenly end up on a losing streak (see: me at start of season for 7 games and what has resumed a few games ago).

If you ever change your mind you are always welcome back.
I rotated alright the few games prior - It's just the last 2-3 games due to cup final and having to get a win in the league as well, as I had envisaged a loss against you regardless so was gonna rotate there regardless and take it on the chin, but I lost all 3 :lol:

Ya, I don't actually mind the losing part. It's just like what happened at Newcastle - for some reason I lost at shitload of games at in the second part of the season and was close to relegation - Gotta pull the plug and hope someone else can save the them. Frustrating part alright is I have tried formations and instructions and nothing works, time to move on as I at least tried but just doesnt work work. Ah well.

When you log on and see 6 new messages, you know something bad has happened. Beat Liverpool 2:0 but as a consequence have lost Isco to injury and Pogba, Bale and Kroos to suspension. Thankfully the next league game is against managerless Birmingham.

De Gea (94)

Roberto (91) Ramos (95) Matip (90) Alaba (93)
Goretzka (91) Isco (93)
Brandt (90) Kroos (95)➕ Martial (90)
Griezmann (95)➕

Subs: Kimmich (91), Monreal (90), Boateng (94), Sterling (91), Bale (95)⚽⭐, Pogba (93)⚽
Suspended: Eriksen (92)

Did not travel: Perin (89)

Key:
⚽ = Goal
➕ = Assist
⭐ = MOTM
= Subbed off
= Subbed on


Second leg of the Champions Cup game against Chelsea is next. Isco misses it due to injury while Kroos and Bale have a European suspension so I'm screwed. Congrats in advance @christy87
