It’s things like this that make me very nervous about having 11 k invested into F1.
Yes things can go wrong . But no announcement makes me worry . People have a lot more than me invested . Please F1 keep your customers informed at every step what is happening .
The news page hasn’t updated in weeks too!
Just not good enough F1 . Although I’m making very good profits I do worry about the overall long term survival of a company run so shambolically .

@Timothee-Atouba said in Carnage at the top!!!:

@Spot-the-value. Like you say, lots of IS’ing to get on this rise. Which means plenty of it will be soft money from people with an itchy finger.

Yes it’s a tough thing sometimes to have to admit you have missed one of the big risers . But you can’t own them all!
Some just can’t seem to accept that .
I think the key for my success on here has to be about patience

I try not to worry too much about short term rises or drops. My main point really was the amount of people who were willing to sell blue chip holds at big losses to board trains that are already some way to their destination .

Wow the rise of Bruno and Jota have caused a major fall in most of the other top 20 PB players.
Some people must be a long way down on cap app last 48 hours. Never seen so much IS of high profile holds at big spreads . Fortunately I got Jota at£1.35 but joined the Bruno party a couple of weeks ago at £5.02. So my overall performance over last few days looks great . But have taken some lumpy hits elsewhere . The non holders of the above 2 must have taken a biggish hit I would think .

@Spot-the-value. Bought 1000 on the team news. This was a good call. Now let's hope you are also right about him scoring vs spuds 🚀 🚀 🚀

Of course he gonna score v Spuds!!! He always does . Just gutted the crossbar and a late Spurs goal messed his PB up somewhat .

@ChazFI123 said in Marcus alonso:

@Spot-the-value. Just to clarify I wasn’t having a pop at the shout of buying Alonso, I’m just not convinced they’ll play 3 at the back all that much. Alonso there really isn’t much downside to, at some point he’ll hit £1

No matey I never see it as a pop at all .
Apologies if it came across that way from my point . Fully agree ChelseA won’t play that way too often although I knew they would today and expect the same against Bayern .
But my reasons for thinking Alonso was a good buy at 69p we’re more about knowing he would start today but more importantly I’m convinced he will be an Inter Milan player next season .
69p was a no brainer .

@Chris-J said in Marcus alonso:

@Barkez_86 quite a lot of competition in the full back positions at Inter already isn’t there?

I held Lazaro earlier in the season and sold up as he struggled for game time.

I would expect Alonso to be first choice though given how well he performed under Conte.

Conte loves him .
He has signed Moses in the opposite side as he loved Alonso and Moses when he won the league with an average side .
The wingbacks made that side and I’m sure Conte sees the same for Inter .
Besides that although defensively a 5 out 10 going forward Marcus is a 9 out of 10 !!!

@ChazFI123
The system isn’t rigid !!!
It’s horses for courses . Without CHO and Pulisic my feeling was to be a threat you needed to have width elsewhere .
Alonso prob in the top 10 wing backs in modern football had to start .
And we all now just how good Reece James is . On another day Alonso could have had an PB Performance but the crossbar and a late Spurs goal put paid to that .
My point was at 69p you don’t often get players of his calibre at 29 years of age with massive transfer spec to inter on the way this summer .
He will be over a pound by late July possibly 1.29/1.30
Happy days .

Hope one or two of you listened!!

So here we are again with Marcus Alonso down to 69p . A player capable of winning MB and scoring or assisting .
I have just gone in as he has an early kick off on Saturday against Spurs .
Why would he play I hear you ask?
His record against Spurs with goals and assists is second to none.
He played at the reverse fixture and tormented Auriel throughout and won the pen that led to the second goal . He has a habit of popping with goals against Spurs in fact two at Wembley in Spurs fixture whilst WHL development . This fact won’t be lost by Frank I’m sure. So we have two scenarios .

He starts v Spurs and as early kick off probably rises at least 10p pre kick off . Likely to then start v Bayern as Cfc very likely to play a back 5 .
Less likely I believe he doesn’t start v Spurs or Bayern . We then have to wait for the inevitable transfer in the summer to Inter . Which I believe would shoot him to over a pound .
He is 29 a class act suited to PB matrix as a wing back and although unlikely to make the euro squad a Spanish international . Surely at 69p this is low risk trade with a potential big up and poss IPD to boot . A pump . I suppose so but I’ve gone in at the price and look forward to the team sheet at 11.30 am Saturday
