    Another 2 assists for Paquetta today, plus 3 from last GW. He almost went to ManCity before the deadline but something to do with possible gambling charges stopped it, I think.

    This game could go either way, TAA hits the bar.

    Liverpool totally overloaded then should have scored.

    Liverpool looked like the red arrows, must have been 6 players to 1 lol

    In isolation I think Arsenal should be happy to have got away with a point. Liverpool dominated and should have scored that second goal. This game also shows why Arsenal won't be true title contenders this season, IMO. A City team with a fit Haaland would have won this game comfortably.

    Just a horrible referring mistake against Nottingham Forest ... Willy Boly sent off for a second yellow when replays showed it wasn't even a foul.

    Good point for Arsenal,they are my tip to win the league this year, Anfield is a very tough place to go for any team.

    Just saw this on Twitter. Unbelievable!

    It's definitely an improvement for Arsenal taking a point rather than missing out on all three like they usually do. Still, a very shaky performance by the Gunners.

    All that talk of Newcastle's Gordon being tired, injured, needing a rest etc. ... and he ends up playing 90 mins. again!

    Good game, very intense and could have gone either way.

    I have made one transfer, I've not even checked if Haaland is fit decided not to bring him in until fit or my wildcard.

    Here's a look at gameweek 18 before the gameweek 19 deadline! Gameweek 18 was a low scoring gameweek with an average score of just 36 points. Few clean sheets and few points among popular players made this gameweek a disappointment for many. Still, there were managers who finished the gameweek with good scores, like Liverpool Richmond, our gameweek winner, scoring 62 points. Congratulations! =D>

    Gameweek winners:
    GW 1: Dinamo Skruknott
    GW 2: Liverpool Richmond
    GW 3: FC Anfield

    GW 5: Liverpool Richmond

    Merry Christmas FPL Managers.

    Merry Christmas! :)
    I have made one transfer, I've not even checked if Haaland is fit decided not to bring him in until fit or my wildcard.

    Not made a transfer myself yet, but due to injuries I likely have to bring in another defender.

    Tsimikas is an issue for me so had to do something with fear of rotation, my keepers don't have great fixtures either, I really should have stuck with Onana just for his points haul I sold him way too early.

    William Saliba should be working in the VAR lounge when he retires..... :))

    Looks like Tsimikas has to go for me as well. Can't take the chance Lascelles will play.

    Arsenal were really lucky there. They have not always had luck with decisions so far this season, so it was about time things went their way in that regard.

    VAR mistakes still seem to happen every week.
    Erling still 50% chance of playing, any updates ?

    VAR .... a solution:

    Just use it for "clear and obvious errors," what we were promised originally. No offside line measurements. Only mistakes that are obvious to the naked eye upon video review. Like the ridiculous yellow handed out to Boly last GW.

    BTW, those onscreen line measurements aren't even scientific. Every tenth of a second counts, as someone in the VAR booth is making a subjective decision at which precise moment to freeze the play.

    Here are the gameweek 19 captaincy picks!
    Salah: 11
    Son: 2
    Haaland: 2
    Isak: 1
    Solanke: 1

    Uncertainty regarding Haaland's fitness and a good fixture for Liverpool, makes the majority of our league look to Salah for captaincy points. Two managers will be hoping for Haaland to feature, while Isak and Solanke are backed by one manager each. Goof luck everyone!

    No updates I've seen at least. Expect he might get minutes, but the full match might be early?

    VAR mistakes and inconsistency has been the main talking points so far this season. The fact that we (and obviously pundits) talk about this every week just shows how much work that needs to be done to improve the officiating…

    If only applying VAR to the clear and obvious errors, we will also see much shorter delays when VAR is used in games. I might be in a minority, but I have nothing against VAR really. It's just the way it's been implemented – and the fact that they still manage to make big errors – which makes it frustrating.

    Leno got 0 points also, i am having such a great GW.

    Solanke scored but it is not much consolation.

    Early still, but with Newcastle assets not getting their clean sheet, I expect the gameweek average score won't be that great.

    Mctominay dropped so that's another player unlikely to get points for me, TH finally realities Mctomnay should not be starting. I think this could end up being TH final game as manager if we lose badly at home.
