English Football 2021-21 - Featuring the Aston Lions!!! - Page 2 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

True…saw an article the other day with a headline like “Is Charlie Patino Arsenal’s best ever prospect?” Clickbaity, but still a good thing.

I sure do love our young players, that’s something at least.

Kind of seems like a midpoint between Wilshere and Xhaka. That doesn't seem like high praise now, but it is for a 17 year old.

Partey/Nketiah out for a month. Means Eddie leaves for free next year and some combo of xhaka, elneny, sambi for the first 3 games.

I could be up for something friendly. I think this current Pool side is still extremely good, but at the end of its current run. They’ve played a lot of big matches and Klopp’s style is intense

I'll request the bet on betfair see what odds they give me (if any)

If they don't then will have to work it out between us lol

My United>plop is equal parts homerism and the fact I think we saw the best of this plop squad 3 seasons ago and they've only added two significant signings since, both semi-crocks.

I'd still be up for a small bet on the points handicap, whatever the pinny lines are.

It's utd o/u 73.5, shaded towards the over, plop o/u 76.5, shaded towards the under.

2.5 pts diff seems fair. $25 @evens, I have United +2.5?

Ask them for some juicy odds like the 12/1 (industry low) they're offering on Werner for the golden boot.

Chelsea to win.

Lions to finish 10th. Feel the balance in attack might be off if we don't sign another attacker.

Brentford Norwich palace to go down.

Who cares about the rest.

Another attacker?
It's cover at the CB that you lack.

They just loaned Tuanzebe.

Can't say I'm a fan of the move from our side, should have sent him somewhere he'll play most games or just sold him straight up.

We need CM

And either a LW or CAM depending where buendia is playing. If buendia is out for any games this season we've gone back to square one where we have 0 creativity like when grealish got injured.

Watkins LW doesn't sit well with me. I don't want el ghazi getting many minutes.

It's looking likely first game is going to be 442 with el ghazi up on the left and some youngster on the right. It isn't going to be pretty

Axel is pretty decent cover and they have Hause as well, 4 CBs with no europe seems sufficient, even with the very live risk of Mings getting a 12 game ban for decapitation.

Watkins just gone off injured. Eeek.

Yeh were fine at CB now.

Watkins maybe injured. Buendia hasn't played last 2 preseason games, no idea when he's back. Bailey no idea when he's joining the squad. Luiz just finished at Olympics. Traore been injured and only just come back.

Going to be a **** start to the season. Preseason all over the place.
