I went for Swansea & Liverpool. And I have Scott Dann for scoring defender, as he's had 2 I think my points should be even lower than other answers.
I knew we had Arsenal and Chelsea away so went for the obvious on 2 away wins #pieceofpiss Thanks for my pm @BobbyD x
THey have Boro this weekend I think Ive already won with selecting Boro to lose at home though Question is how many others did?!
I think @Jurgen is celebrating Spurs' victory at Boro a little early here though, they aren't pushovers and only lost 2 at home last season and 3 the season before. I know that was in the Championship but I still don't think it'll be an easy place to go this season.
I think you've ****ed yourself over a bit because they've only got 3 away games in their first 7 fixtures, you should've gone with a team that had 4 or more (Liverpool had 5, as an example, so much higher chance of actually winning 2 of them). Though I am bottom so I wouldn't take any advice that I give out too seriously
Lets not forget that some thought Guardiola was a fraud who just joined clubs who were already dominant and wasn't a brilliant manager. Go back to the summer threads and see how many Guardiola doubters there were, you'd be surprised.
Must admit I was one that said I think he'll struggle initially, it's the first club he's gone into that hasn't already been best in the league by a mile. At the moment, he's got them playing well and morale is probably high on the basis they've got arguably the best manager in the world at their club. The true test will come when City it a bit of bad form. Some managers don't have experience of managing a club through bad times. Look at Mourinho and Chelsea. Things started going wrong and it seemed like a new experience for him and he didn't know how to get out of it and it just spiralled. Not saying Pep is going to have same problem, but he's not really had to go through a bad patch in his career... worse he's had is not winning the CL at Bayern FFS
