Problem with Scamacca was the pricetag. He was never that player. And he was never starting material, just a useful rotation player.

Haaland is a monster. Scores from everywhere in the box.

Can Haaland stop scoring? Fucking guy's odd to score anytime was x1.4, I don't remember seeing it that low consistently for any player. Ridiculous monster.

lol. Lukaku does not have that killer instinct. Bad first touch. He is finished.

Well, that was the expectation when he was 16-17 and played for Anderlecht. Those were my hopes too, but his character and lack of improvement is another thing.

Arsenal will be top four for sure. Just not sure they can stay ahead of City without Jesus. Lot of games to go.

So Arsenal & City are the top two, but after them it's open with a few teams in play. Way I see it those three are Liverpool, Man Utd, and Newcastle. Of the three Utd has the weakest roster due to their forward situation, but I think their defense may carry them. Liverpool has the most talent so I think to a large extent that is going to keep them in it. Newcastle I see as the likeliest to fall out of the top four. But any of the three may come up short.

Tottenham won't be top four. I expect they'll drop to 6th or maybe even 7th depending on that next tier of teams. Chelsea should be a team that makes a strong push but they are going to find out running around buying everyone doesn't guarantee anything. I figure them for 6th, maybe 5th.

Jesus is out for maybe 3 months, there's no way Arsenal owners won't go for a new striker similar to Jesus, with good pace and dribbling. Mudryk fits that perfectly. This could be even a 100M€ splash including an extra midfielder. They will spend because they have a shot at the title.

saw the 2 own goals of the leicester player. At the first one it's hard to say if it was he's intention. And the second i have big suspects, can't understand what he made there. The ball came fast to him yeah but he could do better if ask you ask me..

He wasn't really trying to score an own goal on either occasion lol

First one was extremely unlucky. It felt like a good decision to send it high but he missed the timing and/or the ball trajectory coming his way.

Second was actually a decision/balance thing. After the ball hit the post he had less than 2 seconds to decide and felt that there was another player on his right and tried to kick it out with his right foot towards his left side rather than risk hitting it with the left with a possible deflection sending it in. Obviously he fucked it up, but it's clear that he wasn't intending to score own goals!
