Would be great to have some commentary explaining how. Ie chips played, lessons learned etc.

On wildcard. Is there a City defender I can rely on? If Nunez was nailed I’d be all over it. Dias has played a lot of 90s, but we’ve been there before, haven’t we…

Same boat. Last year my three-season rank was 100 in the world. This season I’m 2.5m as I type and my team also has Bowen, Diouf and a BB with zero returns from three players. Tough times.

Having seen Gok’s second touch usually be either a header or a throw-in for the other team, I’d suggest moving him on. For anyone. Literally anyone.

As Ali G would say, is you for real?

First off, this was your big chance to break free from the tyranny of the sodding 3-4-3.

Then there’s Sesko - even his mum would pick Ekitike over him right now.

And Amad, bless him, feels like he’s had fewer minutes this season than Bruno’s had missed pens.

If Burn is playing left back more, I’m not sold on his defcon potential.

You mentioned Sesko in the earlier post - don’t do it to yourself. The pain will be too hard to watch.

This is free hit good. Respect.

This. 100%.

Respect to Jim for doing the seemingly impossible and downgrading ETH

They remind me of what United used to be - relentless, never giving up until that final whistle. That’s what champions do.

Serious question: what has Amorim done for anyone to think he’s the man?

Amorim has lost 15 times in 28 Premier League games as United manager - that is the fastest a manager has reached 15 defeats in the competition, promoted clubs aside, since Paul Hart with Portsmouth in 2009
August 27, 2025 at 7:40 PM
How is this 50% when he’s out for up to four weeks?
August 25, 2025 at 11:49 AM
Decent team. I’d just hold the line and roll.
August 24, 2025 at 10:14 PM
Hold Palmer until we hear about the injury. Got a plumb fixture next week.
August 22, 2025 at 8:53 PM
This is great – thanks for sharing. At what points during the week do you feed data into the model? For example, is it most up to date on a Friday, or does it update at different points during the week?
August 20, 2025 at 8:31 AM
Not a United fan, but I agree with every word. Fernandes would walk into and improve any team in the country. Few players in the past twenty years have combined his level of talent with such relentless work ethic.
August 18, 2025 at 7:59 AM
After one game, I agree Haaland looks the better pick. But we all chose our squad for the first five at least.

If you ditch Mo tonight and he catches fire, what will you do when he faces a hapless Burnley in a few weeks?

Right now Haaland is no great threat to your rank. His EO is low.
August 17, 2025 at 9:01 AM
Your team is fine. You only had a couple of punts and they need a few weeks before you can judge them.

If Anderson looks average today, a simple change to Rudolf before he rises tonight and you’re in decent shape.

TLDR: Your team doesn’t need a wildcard.
August 17, 2025 at 8:37 AM
Yup
August 16, 2025 at 12:55 PM
If we were picking a team for just one week, a lot of us would have plumped for him.

But we weren’t, so we didn’t.
August 16, 2025 at 12:52 PM
Just watched Ronnie’s two 147s. The final red on the second was outrageous. In an 11-frame match he also knocked in 134 and 142. Surely the highest-standard session the game has ever seen.
