    1 - 1 at half time between Galatasaray and Bayern, if Galatasaray win I can't see United getting out of the group. Galatasaray are looking the better side up to now should be ahead.

    Not a good start by United our midfield worries me, Amrabat and Bruno sitting with Mctominay at 10 recipe for disaster.

    World class save from Onana saved us then, this is pretty dire, not sure TH knows what he is doing.

    Eriksen with a great shot, good save. We are attacking better since subs. Rashford was clean through and brought down...

    Rashford through again and leads to nothing.

    I would stay well clear of United players in FPL.

    Gotta love that ending ... first Maguire then Onana for the win.

    Rashford had such a great season last year and good pre season yet he has a slow start to this season for some reason ????

    Højlund seems to be playing well but not scoring.

    Maguire who was nearly sold scores, but i don't know what his defending is like now, improved ?

    Mount has done nothing so far. Maybe should have bought toney instead ?

    Manu need 2 strikers but are 1 billion in debt apparently ?

    I think with Rashford beyond his goals his general play is not particularly good, in fact I would drop him and Bruno on current form. His form now reminds me of the Ragnick and latter Ole era's.

    Rasmus does look a player though is feeding on scraps, TH playing inverted wingers does not help Rasmus, nor does playing Bruno in an assortment of positions. the only assist Rasmus has got from Rashford is when Rashford switched from the left to right flank.

    Mount did not even come off the bench last night, it looks like for now TH has abandoned his Mount project/total football and is trying to grind out results. For me Mount was not needed and the money could have been spent elsewhere.

    MU will end up spending in Jan i suspect (regarding a striker i think they will keep testing the water as to whether Greenwood could return), that debt has been there for years it never seems to stop the club wasting more money.

    The Glazer''s from what i have heard never put any of there own money into the club and just take out dividends. I am not sure what impact the 25% share sale will have assuming it goes ahead and will it effect FFP, there needs to be transparency with regards to the future of the club.

    There has been speculation that the Glazer's are sticking around as eventually games will go to individual clubs platforms as apposed to Sky etc which I hope happens. I would rather just sub to MUTV and watch all the games there. If and when that happens MU will make a hell of a lot more money. I am no expert on broadcast right's so i really don't know how feasible it is short term.

    It wasn't a great match, but Arsenal managed a win against Sevilla last night, which is very important as things stand in group B. Quite fun that the first goal was a play from Gabriel to Gabriel to Gabriel :))

    I've heard that Manu's stadium and training facilities need updating as well ?

    Sandro Tonali will be banned from football for 10 months over breaches of rules on betting on matches in Italy, the head of the Italian Football Federation has said.

    After a low scoring gameweek 8, many managers were happy to see their teams deliver much better scores in gameweek 9, where the average gameweek score was 67 points. Many teams managed even better scores than this as well, best of which in our league being CSAC, who managed 105 points, and a gameweek rank of 83 105. Congratulations! =D>

    Tonali is only one of several footballers facing or serving bans for breaching betting rules. It's not surprising really, given betting's exposure in football worldwide…

    Almost forgot about tonight's deadline, just had a quick look at my team gone for a punt captain for a change.

    @Torgeirtrap hows the healing process with your fracture?
  • Posts: 17,660
    Here are the gameweek 10 captaincy picks!
    Salah: 8
    Haaland: 4
    Watkins: 3
    Son: 2

    It's not often Haaland isn't the most captained player in our league, but this is the case this gameweek! 8 managers have put faith in Salah to deliver the points in a good fixture against Nottingham Forrest. Haaland meanwhile is only backed by four managers this weekend. Good luck everyone!

    I expect Luton at home will be a great fixture for Watkins and Villa!

    The healing process is going just fine, @Fire_and_Ice_Returns. I removed the stitches from the operation today, but I can't use my hand properly just yet, as I should avoid any heavy lifting until the follow up with the doctor in about a month. Most of the everyday stuff is manageable though.

    That is positive, stitches? Did you have issues with your tendons also?

    I fell asleep so missed the Spurs game, I see they won again...

    Just realized Watkins is my captain, I did intend to bottle it and switch to Salah :)) oh well!

    Chelsea play some decent football though desperately need a good center forward, goalless at half time i would not be surprised if Brentford nicked a 1 - 0 victory.

    Cole Palmer looks a class act I am surprised City let him leave, Palmer will get into the England squad at some stage with his exceptional passing ability.

    There goes my Colwill clean sheet, Pinnock with the goal thankfully Mbeumo got the assist as consolation.

    Chelsea have only won 1 game from the last 12 in the league at home, could be 1 in 13 if things don't improve... toothless up front.

    I am so happy Wolves scored a few goals as I was worried for a while having benched Burn.

    No, luckily it didn't look like there were any tendon issues. Just a fracture which required a plate being inserted.

    Spurs are really on a roll now. Wonder how far they can go on without losing a game…
    Mbeumo on 2 bonus points which i desperately need.

    I had two -4 transfer options before the deadline. One of which included getting rid of Mbuemo, the other one – which I ended up doing – placed him first on the bench. Udogie not featuring means I get his points off the bench! First proper jammy points of the season for me :))
