got crushed pretty hard today coutinho red card killed me in mondogoal too.

pretty ridiculous runbad since i predicted most of the results correctly (except for pool and stoke not surprising those were both the red card games, pools was after ham went up tho)

Cheers. Looks fairly "cut and dry" to me (vine if you care).

We shall see. Yes, I'm clutching here.

Yeah sorry to say but think I agree with wazzu24. Opta pretty much only seem to give it when it's a clear (non-deflected) pass.

I had a good day. I picked Shaqiri over Adam today b/c I'm assuming that Adam is going to get subbed a lot more often now that Stoke is rolling a deeper bench of attacking midfielders. I guess we'll see how it plays out this season.

Hopefully next wknd MLS is juicy since it's international week .... ie more money cause no EPL and ppl picking dudes who aren't even gonna play

Ya adam likely to get subbed around 65-70 min, but a game like this is perfect for him since he loves bombing low ev shots and crosses. He also would be taking penalties, which is pretty massive. In a vacuum it's basically pretty flippy, hence why i went one in my morning slate games, and the other in the late slate.

I was right about almost all the games just too much exposure to pool/stoke. Stoke was definitely the correct play since they still won the xG even down 2 men, they would have won 2/3-0 if it stays even all game prob so that's just bad luck. Didnt watch the pool game so no idea wtf happened there. West ham has a pretty bad defense so no excuse for getting rocked like that. When arsenal lost to them they at least had much better xG where as pool got clearly out played.

Seriously though what the **** are the chances of getting 2 players reds in one slate. Has to be like <1%. Pretty ****ty way to dump like 3.5k+. On the bright side there's another slate tomorrow with a ton of good spots i think people will miss and I've already made back 1.5k playing poker so far today.

/end rant.

I definitely feel lucky to have come out ahead today despite Guzan scoring negative and Coutinho seeing red. Top scorers not exactly getting it done so far this season.

i can't recall the exact slate that day, but i didn't think he was a good spot at all. i considered him for inclusion in a gpp lineup somewhere today and ended up not even doing that. i used adam a ton last season and it was free money. his price is pretty high now too.

i wonder if afellay will get his starting spot back after his ban. statistically, he has done about **** all whereas arnautovic/adam often do quite a lot even if they are a bit streaky.

i think action for mls will be weak next weekend. i find mls hard to predict tho.

Shaqiri and sterling were absolute gifts today. If stoke doesn't get 2 sent off and butland cashes I win all the money

Makes sense.

For some reason Vardy's goal hasn't been credited either. I assume they class penalties as goals??! ha

That's just standard Mondogoal being slow - he'll be credited before anything is settled

Found it hard to spend all the monies on today's lineup unless picking fat Wayne.

I faded him tbh, but hated the slate so barely played anything today. Managed to get a Tadic/Pelle/Soares combo in, though, so that might pay off a bit.

Gonna be skewed cause of red card, but ya memphis has a good floor. Memphis was the safest pick of mane/pelle/memphis. The soton stacks look way better than they should have cause of the red. Pretty much can bank on manu not being good offensively and memphis being the only worthwhile pick ever from them.
