@TotalPunt

We appreciate your efforts nonetheless! 👍

Today highlights why the media side of the platform must change asap ...

Antonio scores 4 goals for West Ham and is only 4th in the leaderboard.

Bruno had a wild party back in 2016 and is running away with media buzz today ...

Absolute nonsense! 🤣🤐

@London-Is-Blue said in Matchday thread 11/7/20:

@johnboywalker Gilmour out, should be Jorginho to start and Antonio goes and has the game of his life in terms of PB.

Fat frank will probably put himself on the park before Jorginho ...

I reckon Jorgie must have been trying to fire in about Frank's missus? 🤣

@King-Fergus

I don't think you can go wrong with Courtois, Ter Stegen and Oblak.

I'm not buying them for team of the month (although it would be a nice bonus). I'm buying them for days like yesterday. The bronze and silver match days where there are only a handful of teams playing.

On these days, a win (18pts) and clean sheet (40pts), already gives the top team keepers a head start over the competition.

Courtois would have taken the 1p top GK dividends if they were in place yesterday.

Then take into account that the knockout stages of European football are usually silver or gold, and you could make some serious coin from top keepers, who are currently wildly underpriced.

@Gazz127

Conversely, Zidane has attributed Madrids post lockdown run of 7 wins from 7 games to the fitness coach/physio, Gregory Dupont.

It is interesting to see the shape of some players since the return of football. Luis Suarez looks like he has gone back to cannibalism ... tubby prick!!

Luke Shaw doesn't look like he's put on anymore weight, which is most surprising!! 🤣

@Maldini07 said in Kimmich keeps dropping:

Any other players out there that just seem to be hemorrhaging? When the announcement was made he shot up over a pound and has now dropped to +0.39p. I imagine it will keep dropping as well.

I can't figure out why though as he is shoe-in PB divs and TOTM across next season.

I wouldn't be concerned. Basically, what happened last night was Kimmich's price rose to a max of £5.77. He is currently priced at £5.16.

The remaining 61p of Kimmich shares are all sat in a sell queue, that probably won't sell anytime soon.

Either way, there is now £5.77 worth of Kimmich shares in circulation.

When the platform picks up, he will rise back to his peak.

He is one of only a handful of winners (other than goalkeepers) from yesterday's announcement.

@StevieP said in European draws:

Not got time to post it all, but one of Liepzig, Atletico, Atalanta and PSG will be in the Champs league final this year

Atalanta 😍😍😍

Rock n roll football at it's finest.😎

Defence? What the fucks that!? 🤣🤠

@ChazFI123 said in Can someone official please get us an explanation?:

@johnboywalker you seem have to been very quiet? Or have I missed your thoughts on yesterday? Or are your thoughts a bit like Pandora’s box 🤣🤣

Still taking it all in mate ... there are positives and negatives.

Along with others, I'm very much underwhelmed with the announcement, but also understanding that the Index are attempting to be 'fiscally responsible' in the current climate.

I think they need to stop the pie in the sky bullshit posturing 🚀 and just be honest with traders. The recent tweet from Adam Cole was the first time I've seen him actually play down expectations. It was refreshing.

Team of the month is a great idea, but announcing goalkeeper divs at this time is a poor decision. It simply caused money to transfer from top to bottom, at a time when consumer confidence in the platform was already nearing an all time low.

GKs should have had their own category years ago, but I cannot fathom why they thought now was the ideal time to implement it ... 🙃🤡

Most are still stuck in their current holds with no realistic chance of exiting without taking a massive financial hit.

The platform will now likely be stagnant until the introduction of sell orders at the earliest.

But here's the worrying question I ask myself;

If you had the opportunity to sell your entire portfolio today and walk away (temporarily or permanently) with your current profit, would you?

I think the majority would say yes, which only increases the frustration being felt by many that they are currently being held to ransom by FI.

@Marksandygill said in Can someone official please get us an explanation?:

@ChazFI123 That's my worry if they keep 5 subs for next season! Before if you were leading you'd make subs at say 70 mins, now they seem to be doing it at 60 mins then a couple more at 70 mins! Look at Bruno last night!

I wouldn't worry mate. I'm confident the 5 substitutions and drink breaks will be gone for the new season ...

They served a purpose to ensure players weren't being unnecessarily injured following the extended and enforced break caused by lockdown.

In hindsight, all they do is disrupt the fluidity of the game. I'm sure most would agree.

I'll be gutted if RdP is pipped by Banega here buy it's looking like it's on the cards 😫

Banega just got another free kick in the 92nd minute, so looks like your fucked bud! 🤔🤢
