    Decided to use my second transfer in the end. Injury doubts made it difficult to favour saving the second transfer. Mbeumo + Cash to Gordon and Pedro Porro. I don't expect many points from either this gameweek, but I can only hope that it works out over the next few gameweeks.

    Mbeumo out Gordon in for me too.

    I considered Gordon though with Newcastle injury's and them running out of steam vs Everton opted for Foden, Foden probably will end up being victim to Pep roulette :))

    Endo was fouled IMO... VAR is a joke how long does it take.

    No penalty.

    At the 60 minute mark, Liverpool zero shots on target.

    Ayew sent of for Palace second yellow, that changes the game as Palace were looking more likely.

    1 - 1 Salah, wicked deflection.

    Dam Liverpool scored Harvey Elliot from a Salah assist. 2 - 1.

    Missed the deadline though not sure I would have changed anything, i have 2 defenders that keep getting benched so its really difficult to call who will start. I ended up bringing TAA, Mctominay and Foden.

    That's a great trio given their form. Couldn't stretch to bringing in TAA, though I would love to have him i my team…

    Hopefully it will work out, I still want Saka though its either him or Salah at the moment.

    Think I will go and get my daily steps in and go for a walk in the miserable rain lol then watch the Palace v Liverpool game.

    It's difficult to get an optimal team with the likes of Salah, Son, Saka and Haaland taking up considerable funds in your team. I need to drop one of them if I want a premium defender. Saka might be the easiest to drop, but he's delivered points quite regularly…

    I'll be watching Palace vs Liverpool too. Still spend most of my time on the sofa with the cold I'm struggling with.

    Cold sounds rough, had it over a week?

    Only since Tuesday, but feels long enough! I'm a bit better today, so I hope I'll be able to go to work on Monday. I can do some of my work from home though, so I've been able to keep doing some work despite not being at the office.

    Was hoping for a draw between Palace and Liverpool, but with several players out and Ayew being given a red, a Liverpool win was the most likely outcome.

    I buy something called Metatone its a tonic, i take it every winter seems to work as keeps any flu or colds at bay.

    Liverpool winning not good, United struggling to score at home Bournemouth leading, my transfers in recent weeks all back fired.

    Can't remember having heard about that before, but I'm sure there are similar products on the market here too. Can't complain though, I got through last winter without getting a cold.

    I think the last month of so of football have been difficult to predict – especially from a FPL point of view. Tells something about how the season have been so far.

    I guess the Premier League is just very competitive or there are just no stand out teams, everyone seems to ship goals for fun which makes buying defenders an almost impossible task.

    Well if things were not bad enough Bruno got a yellow and misses the trip to Anfield, if we get battered next week Ten Hag maybe in trouble again... he probably already is.

    Fun facts ...

    Bournemouth's Iraola, along with Arteta and Guardiola, is one of three Premier League managers from the same small provincial Basque region of Spain.

    Gipuzkoa ... I'd never even heard of it.

    Soon to be four managers should Lopetegui join Forest ...

    Must be something in the water ...

    I guess it's a combination of both really.

    I knew Bournemouth had done reasonably well of late, though i expected much more from United... Chelsea really must have been terrible to make us look good midweek.

    I have issues with TH tactics, I have all season.

    I will take a 3 - 2 win to Arsenal with goal involvement from Luiz and Watkins, otherwise I have another terrible GW incoming.
