Anyone else not received their covid pre match forms?

Lock the thread! Signed a new deal!

How would one get onto a waiting list for one? Albeit I’m sure it’ll be 10,000 before me in the queue!

I dunno, if Madrid sign Mbappe or whoever he'll probably lose out given their fans still criticise him for his end product infront of goal. Asensio is also fit again so presume in long run he'll be a regular again in their line up.

It's a bit like Odegaard who in last two seasons has been loaned out to Real Sociedad and Arsenal and I rate him just as much of a talent as Vincius. We shouldn't be miles behind those sort of teams now so don't see why we can't enquire although perhaps he's too established in their first team.

Rodrygo and Kubo certainly aren't so perhaps those two are more realistic.

Rodrygo is considered the much better all round player to Vinicius by many real fans and pundits. Hasn’t yet established himself but think he will surpass Vini. Would be happy with either be very surprised if we were able to mind you

I know it’s Twitter but hey look a random player we’re linked to

In a selfish way I hope this doesn’t happen, I bought 5000 shares at 4p in him on football index. Probably would’ve shot up by a quid if he moved to Europe, now that football index has gone bust it’s worthless

IF and its a big IF he is available to purchase we would be stupid not to have a go this is a player who for years is supposed to be a world star and just needs to play in a top league every week at a club he will be staying at for a few years.

Edit - Just looked up his stats he played 32 full games worth of minutes last year for Real Sociedad and got a mix of 16 goals and assists

The year before for Vitesse he played 37 and got a mix of 23 goals and assists.

He turned 22 last month....

I watched a lot of sociedad last season, spent some days in San Sebastián so had a bit of an affiliation to then! Boy odegaard is good! Won’t happen though, unless Lange can work his scandinavian magic 

Jacob Ramsey starts! Big chance for him. No Trez

Yeah, but knowing he’d just had a nasty knee injury I’d have expected the Liverpool medics to want their £150m asset to stay off it.

I dislocated my knee when I was 16, I couldn’t walk on it as my knee was on sideways

 

Yeah good point! My knee is worth about £1.50 so nobody cared less! Defo looked, when I saw the picture yesterday, like it could be serious

I was surprised VvD walked the perimeter of the pitch and out to the car park away changing rooms with a damaged ACL. You’d have thought they’d have stretched him.

First time I did my ACL I managed to walk home from the football pitch, the initial tear is excruciating and then you're able to put some weight on albeit still painful, then the week after it eases up

No idea if Mike Gallo is reliable, but this bloke is a new name...

This would be remarkable if we were able to get it done. Barcelona were in for him before his injury

No Neil Taylor, no el ghazi, makes me happy, makes me feel this way

Erick Pulgar potentially going to Leeds for a steal at £15m. If you believe the tittle tattle on Twitter. That’s an absolute steal and the CM we would need. Watched a lot of him this last year as I hold a lot of football index shares in him

I think sky have been pretty clever in putting it on live, knowing it’s our first game of the season means people will make extra effort to watch it, plus some neutrals might keen to see how we look.

I just wish I hadn’t booked a table out for me and the missus on the assumption that it wouldn’t be on the TV oops.

 

Unlimited ribs and wings tho for £13, be rude not to!

More importantly, where on earth is a deal like that!

what kind of players do you invest in?  i just invested in grealish at the moment. surprised how much more expensive trent is to robertson i guess that to do with age. 

I have quite a varied port. But I watch a lot of European football so that helps haha! Trent is more expensive because of a few reasons, he tends to score higher PB than Robertson so therefore will tend to beat him to that. He has England potential for PB and is in the media more!

do you still use it, don't really understand what happened yesterday seems everyone lost a lot of money.

Yeah man still on there. Port took a huge hit yesterday with this new system. However its turned it much more into a proper market and I'm still confident in the product!

Don't trust Villareport, I'll believe it when I hear it direct from Guilbert. 

It’s on his Instagram

How can you not drool at the thought of Kubo in a Villa shirt.

 

You can, but it’ll be a Villa-rreal shirt since he’s gone to them on loan for the season

Yeah defiantly won’t be postponed just played later

Isn’t that what postponed means?

My mystic mind says Man City away first 

so that’ll be postponed

followed by sheff United at home and Fulham away

Great choice. He really impressed me playing for Villareal when I first saw him 18 months back, had good games v Real Madrid and Barca in last two seasons so has clear talent.

I know he's been linked with bigger clubs but none have signed him so far and Villareal will always sell players if the price is right to premier league.

Raul De Tomas is a good striker aswell. Moved to Espanyol for 15m in January but they still went down so he's one I'd look at.

Crazy how espanyol went down. Raul de Tomas was very good as was Adrian embarba. Think he could be a good squad player tbh. 

Anyone know who’s our rep? Player?

There's a factory just south of Paris that works 24/7 producing crate after crate of players named some combination of Youssouf, Moussa, Traore, Dembele, Bertrand, Sissoko and any variation you want of Mamadou. Fofana is a new model they are working on recently.

Best comment I’ve read on here in a long time

Curious if people are still using this and if they're making any money? I'm tempted to give it a try and wanted people's thoughts/tips (is it worth bothering and any easy mistakes to avoid).

Hiya mate, still massively into this and have made about 2k so far since July. Feel free to shoot over some questions in a message!

He posted a pic of him on social media with his face swollen midweek with tooth problems.

Poor bastard seemed to constantly be getting smacked and clattered on the same side today as well. lol

I think the Watford players will have known about these tooth problems and targeted him. Definitely one of my favourite players at the club right now!
