Quick turnaround for us now. We play bottom side Fulham on Friday at 7pm. Hopefully a quick 6pts will have us sitting pretty going into the 2 week break that follows. Other matches are Friday Norwich(3rd) v Burnley(12th) Boro(1st) v Reading(10th) Monday Newcastle(9th) v Wolves(8th) West Brom(7th) v Sunderland(6th) Stoke(11th) v C.Palace(5th)

Does anyone know first hand who assisted the first goal? I have 2 sources giving me different info. One saying Ramsey (Soccerway) and one saying Chukwuemeka (Sofascore). I've gone with Soccerway because that's who I've used (trusted) for a long while.

Stats updated. Villa climb to 4th and 3pts off the top. Bogarde makes his mark with an assist, as the 3 most dangerous attacakers continue their impressive run of returns with JPB, Barry & Ramsey all contributing to the goals too.

My plan to halt my progress worked a treat. An almost 100k drop to fall outside the top 500k. All joking aside though, it wasn't too bad. My defence let me down but I'm set up nicely going forward. I took the wildcard a week early to beat the price rises and to be able to react to international injuries and covid. So I didn't really buy the players for the gameweek 9 fixtures because the fixture shift wasn't until week 10. And yet my wildcard team beat my pre-wildcard team's score. I have £2.7m in the bank but I have no Liverpool cover and I'm agonising over how to get Salah into a mi

Good win. I didn't see it all but the bit I saw we were head and shoulders above them.

Quality finish from Barry there. He had a lot to do from the initial take down.

It would be just like us to throw it away.

Ramsey & JPB getting regular attacking returns these days. Another goal and assist. Becoming our most consistently dangerous pair.

Interesting to see Bogarde immediately promoted to the older side after Delaney waxing lyrical about his debut during the week. Seems he's making an impression.

Early results are in. Newcastle 0-2 Norwich Sunderland 3-4 Crystal Palace Leeds 2-1 WBA Burnley 2-1 Fulham Norwich stay within a point of top spot with a win at Newcastle. Palace move into contention 3pts off the lead with a back and forth 4-3 win at Sunderland. An experienced Leeds side containing Rodrigo, Helder Costa & Pascal Struijk came from behind late on to beat the Baggies and go joint top. Burnley win the battle of the bottom 2 to put Fulham bottom. Just us left.

So they all believe in the same magic sky fairy, but slightly different stories about him. So it's a map of the effect of Chinese whispers on the impressionable.

League leaders Boro won 4-1 away at Wolves to develop a bit of a lead at the top. 10 of the other 13 play today. 4 early kick offs and we play at Stoke at 7pm.

On a topic that will interest this group, Dortmund have Moukoko on the bench this evening. He was 16 yesterday.

I have had it for as long as I can remember. It really works. It's why I will always pay my bear tax. Not a single attack ever. No I'm not an anti-vaxxer. I was just jokin' for teh lulz
