    Who can I replace cucu with? Have arsenal defender and don't want Liverpool. City only ait nuri but he injured. Anyone recommend a solid def from the big three?

      gvardiol might be alright but lack of defcon really. he has the goal threat from set pieces, nearly scored vs napoli

      1. SINGH

        Thanks. Guess I will go for either him or Dias now.

      You can never have enough Arsenal defs

        I am reluctant to have 2 from the same team. 1 goal and that's 2 clean sheets gone

    Transfer deadline day I transferred out Cucurella for Guéhi.
    Ten minutes after I was hating the move.
    I even thought about spending my Free Hit to cover my mistake.

      Do you not know how the game works? Defenders and GKs are on the hook for goals conceded after RCs.

        ouch ๐Ÿ™

      Good question!

    2. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 hours, 50 mins ago

      No team should ever spend that much on any transfer ever unless it's for marketing reasons

  10. Thanos

    1. KAPTAIN KANE!
      • 8 Years
      3 hours, 53 mins ago

      He’s warming up, I didn’t think they could do that but maybe has changed

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 13 Years
        3 hours, 52 mins ago

        Yeah changed it just before this match actually

        1. KAPTAIN KANE!
          • 8 Years
          3 hours, 51 mins ago

          Maybe he’s just trying to sort an injury problem I don’t know, but probably won’t come back on as only one sub left

      2. Sgt. Schultz
        • 9 Years
        3 hours, 50 mins ago

    Sesko Amad out
    Ugarte Cunha in

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 13 Years
      3 hours, 52 mins ago

      Ugarte? The man who can't pass the ball to an open teammate five yards away?

    2. F4L
      • 10 Years
      3 hours, 51 mins ago

      yeah cunha needs to come on to give united control

  22. F4L

    Game of two idiots

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      3 hours, 52 mins ago

      Very harsh on Casemiro imo.

      1. chocolove
        • 14 Years
        3 hours, 51 mins ago

        At least he knew he is on 1 yellow card already

  26. Digital-Real
    • 8 Years
    4 hours, 8 mins ago

    Cas 100th career red card it seems

  27. nanxun
    • 4 Years

    • 7 Years

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 hours, 51 mins ago

      Reckon the ref was bored. It's never a second yellow.

    • 9 Years
    4 hours, 7 mins ago

  30. Shark Team
    • 8 Years
    4 hours, 7 mins ago

    If I was Maresca:

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 13 Years
      3 hours, 51 mins ago

      It's really a good thing you're neither Maresca nor Amorim.
