TFF chit chat 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th May

This bit is also of interest

Klopp is confident Salah will be able to play in Liverpool's final Premier League game of the season against Wolves at Anfield on Sunday, where the Reds could win the title for the first time since 1990.

They've said concussion for Salah. Not sure exactly how the 7 day thing works but the Wolves game is 8 days after. I'm still keeping Mane over him.

Post by **SPR** » 06 May 2019, 13:00

Given I have 2 transfers left and I have Rashford and Pogba, I'll probably gamble that Salah plays rather than keep either of them.

Where I have Salah and Mane and was going to sell Mane (worse recent form) I will now sell Salah (risk of not playing) instead.

Planning yes..! It now seems like Salah is ‘allowed’ to play Saturday. Personally I can see Liverpool winning that game 4 or 5 nil. Salah/Mane could easily get 10 points each. City’s game have been a lot closer (score wise at least) in recent weeks.

My team is basically 5 city, 4 Liverpool plus Doherty and Jiminez. The only players I can swap for city players (to facilitate moves) that I don’t already own are mane / Salah and vvd.

I’m the same. 5 City, 4 Liverpool and 2 Wolves. Can’t make my mind up about Salah to Bernardo. Is everyone leaving Mane and Salah in?

Same here. 6 City 4 Pool plus Jimenez. 3-1 beckons but if I go VD to Kompany and Mane to D Silva will both be guaranteed x3 games!

Post by **Cassius** » 06 May 2019, 19:54

Auba to Walker or D Silva - who would you go for?

I don't like the fact that the attention-seeking Mike Dean is refereeing this game

He's reputed to be a Tranmere fan. I don't know it that means he has pro or anti Liverpool tendencies.

Post by **Maldini** » 06 May 2019, 20:38

From Merseyside isn’t he?

I wonder how many of his family/mates support Liverpool?

I don't doubt his neutrality .... I just feel he likes to make the headlines with contentious decisions from time-to-time.

Post by **Maldini** » 06 May 2019, 21:04

He’s got two sons who are Liverpool season ticket holders.

Don’t doubt his integrity but it’s an odd appointment all things considered.

Post by **brencarr** » 06 May 2019, 21:05

David Silva is pushing his luck .... one mis-timed tackle and he's walking. Get him off and get Sane on

Post by **brencarr** » 06 May 2019, 21:29

(what a) Goal - KOMPANY
Assist - LAPORTE

Man City 1-0 Leicester (70 mins)

Any second kc?

Crikey. Absolute screamer.

The goal was a great example of when there should be no kc.

Now why should Laporte (who I have by the way) get a KC. It’s no different to the Luiz pass last week for Rudiger’s screamer. Consistency.

Post by **Maldini** » 07 May 2019, 07:58

My guess is that it’s because Rudiger didn’t score.

Led to a goal though. Their reasoning doesn’t stack up.

“Luiz played a simple pass near the half way line which we considered not to bypass any Man U players and wasn’t particularly key to Rudiger having a long range shot”

So what’s the difference with Laporte?

Post by **Maldini** » 07 May 2019, 08:16

The simple pass didn’t directly lead to the goal though. DeGea saved it.
They’ve consistently not given a second KC in these instances.

Historically in every single fantasy football game, the final pass has been awarded an assist/KC.
