Super Salah.



Around the Network

Salah is incredible.

And he's my captain in FPL so huzzah.



                            

Are we going to have a tournament like in 2014?

On the official FPL one, I did my free hit this week, had Firmino as well as Salah as captain (he's been my captain for weeks). I should be points in.

It's kind of sad think the fact Chelsea owned the 2 best players in the Prem right now, De Bruyne and Salah but currently don't own them. ... no not sad, funny. :P



Hmm, pie.

Schalke won today, so Bayern can't make their title official tomorrow. Title postponed until matchday 28.

Anyway, the more interesting things happen at the bottom of the table. Bremen was able to beat Cologne on Monday, today they took care of Augsburg and improved to 33 points, so they are almost in the clear now. 28 points in the last 17 games (that's when the new coach took over) is Europe League pace, but of course that's not possible when the first 10 games of the season were flushed down the toilet.

Freiburg lost and remains at 30 points, but Wolfsburg and Mainz lost as well and remain at 25 points. Mainz sits on the playoff relegation spot with a far worse goal difference and they've played disastrous football lately. Today they escaped with an 0-3, but couldn't have complained about an 0-7.

Hamburg got a new coach after they fired the previous one after fewer than 50 days in charge. Hamburg's new coach is tits...um... Titz. Yes, that's his name. The club even played well for a half, but then regressed to its norm and lost the game. So everyone down there in the standings is losing. Well, Cologne plays tomorrow, so they still have a shot to improve their position.

Wolfsburg might actually manage to avoid relegation despite being the team with the fewest wins on the season. Mainz, Hamburg and Cologne have just been that bad.

Wow Wolfsburg have declined quite a bit. They won the Bundesliga last decade and now hover around relegation.



you make a boring league sound less boring

International breaks... one of the worst parts of any season.

Just saw China 0-6 Wales.

Bad result for a country that supposedly wants to be ranked #1 in the world by 2050

In 30 years, very doable if they invest in it. I mean look at the opposite effect on our own team because of lack of investment in youth vs just buying already made success.

Our national team compared to 15 years ago don't even compare.



Hmm, pie.
