Season 33 Week 17 processing...

Genk 3 Beveren 0 Camavinga on 74 minutes.
Santos 4 Botafogo 3 Rodrygo header.

Etienne 1 Marseille 2 Szymanski header on 75 minutes.

Roma 1 AC Milan 4 Petagna on 76 minutes.

into the last ten minutes...

When Fergie said squeaky bum time ….

Norwich 0 Soton 1 Duricic on 88 minutes.

The ref blows for fulltime...

The roundup will follow shortly...

Seems 3 teams managed to scrape through but Independiente’s first loss of the season sees their lead cut to 5 points - no time for complacency!

Some reinforcements incoming this week which should help to freshen things up for next season with plans fully in place for all the teams!

To not even grab a point at home to ten men City is a disappointment to say the least with a man advantage for majority of the game

Delighted with the week overall. 



Rotations , CUP games, League games .... 

Watford, have they finally clicked after a couple of changes for people and a return to the side for Maddison..

Genk, make it look routine but the manager has to keep the team fo used and engaged and avoid complanceny 

Leverkusen, comeback was real. The lads benefited from being rotated heavily in the cup. And looks to have helped keep the title race alive. 

Botafogo, What a match!! However couldn't replicate the cup form. But still plenty to aim for this season!

Charlton - delighted with a win in a very tough game!

Nantes - a drab 0-0 by the sounds of it, but with Etienne losing and the players available, I couldn't have asked for much more!  Another away game ticked off.

Wolfsburg - another drab 0-0 means we lose top spot and now a point behind Leverkusen but still ahead of Schalke due to their stalemate (that sentence alone still sounds ridiculous!) Similarly another away game ticked off.

Underwhelming week results wise but in the grand scheme of things not too bad....

well, short and not-so-sweet, 0-0 is disappointing!

Apologies had to pop out and do some support for one of my customers so no time for the normal roundup because Ive just finished sending out the email turns, let me know if there are any issues.

Thank you Paul, no need to apologise! 

Have a good day

Thanks Paul, thanks for another entertaining week.

Just a small issue, I think, with Brazil.  Casemiro is suspended for the World Cup final but I don't think he got sent off or booked in the semi final?

Thanks

Hi Paul, bit of a random and possibly obscure one but Barcelona and Nacional had their estimated fans go back to 300,000.

Ive checked and Casemiro should not be suspended so I have reset him to 12 disciplinary points and he is now available for the World Cup Final. Thanks for the heads up.

Is that the case for Shaw and Walker ? 

Thanks,
Phil

500,000 should be the limit but the system is capping that at 300,000 by mistake. A fix is ongoing for next week so it should show the correct value next week. Thanks for the feedback.

EDIT - ACTUALLY I CHECKED AND THERE IS NO LONGER AN UPPER LIMIT OF 500,000 THE UPPER LIMIT IS NOW 999,999,999. I FORGOT WE REMOVED THE 500,000 A FEW SEASONS AGO. Ive fixed the typo and the actual fans will be shown next week instead of the 300,000 soft cap.

Same problem Phil so Walker and Shaw are NOT suspended.

Brill, thanks

Cheers P, all seems fine here - except drawing my lge game 0-0 with chances being 21 to 0! 
As Big Ron once said, 'I'm not flayin 'em for that!'

Same problem at Wolfsburg! To make matters worse, I was against 10 men for 2/3 of the game as well! Missed opportunity for sure.

I think complacency probably plays a part and/or tired players if they played mid week games. Maybe even exacerbated if playing away from home. Had this at Barcelona where we dominated Sociedad but couldn’t score.

Even more dissapointed now that I know City were down to 9 men and i still didn't equalise. also another penalty miss for me and City.

is there a stat on how many penalties are scored in game Paul? i always seem to  miss and advantage would mostly be in the penalty takers favour

Chelsea estimated fans have dropped to 300,000 when it was over a million last turn , that seems to be only issue i can see
