Not jammy at all this time Welshy, you had a massive slot advantage
----------------------------------------------------------------------
oh crumbs I read the slots the other way around I'm used to the lack of slots - how the hell did I get 8 slots? That can't be right surely

Welshy is used to being screwed over on the slot front to be fair, give him all the slots!

Sterling-------Geis------------Sinkgraven----Ghoulam

---------------------------Fekir-------------------------------

--------Lacazette--------------------Icardi----------------


well what can I say about this game?
one manager has brought the game into disrepute the other played a keeper at #10

Park for some reason although he had a slim chance at promotion through the game away I like his midfield though
Leiva in all fairness picked a solid team (even if he continues to shun Berardi) and I think regardless of Park going all Moyes, would still have had a good chance in this game

Full time - Pony 1 - 3 Lions
Scorers: Forster (Volland)
Lacazette (Fekir)
Icardi (Sterling)
Icardi (Ghoulam)

MOTM - Icardi - he may be a of the highest level but so's his finishing

Nice game this, really like both set-ups and the contrast between the two manager's style, one going for established stars and the other going for players with huge potential to be the best of the next set of stars.
What I do like about Elsie's side is that although he plays some lovely technical football, with over half his side clearing 6ft he has that physicality as well

full time Senseless - 2-1 Cambuur
Goals: Costa x2 (Yaya & Perisic)
Talisca (No assist solo effort)

MOTM -Costa - led the line well and bagged 2 goals for the home side

Draw 4

FiorenTino 2 (3) - 0 Blazingsmokers
Sturridge (Inler), Ibrahimovic (Sturridge), Suarez (OG); -

MOTM - Sturridge - Good addition down that side, plays well in Tino's system.

Slots - Tino 8+1, TBag 2

Review -

I've always argued that I see the team/tactics split as about 50-50, if you have the players but the wrong system, they're not going to perform. But the right players in the right game plan will do better than a bunch of nobodies in the same tactics. So it's natural for me to split the slots 5/5 based on team and tactics... With that in mind...

On paper, I prefer TBag's players, but coupled with the tactics, I felt that Tino had the better team. So that was 3/2 to Tino.

Tino's tactics were just better than TBag's, who quite frankly I don't think did them very seriously So yeah, the slots all went to Fiorentina I'm afraid.

Tino wins a third tainted title!

Trebs has wheeled and dealt and put together a very good side now. Good throughout although clearly weaker defensively down the right side due to absences. Decent setup, nothing over-complicated - good players in the right roles.

Fan half-ársed it this week with the title already sewn up; with such bare tactics I had to assume each player would play the "standard" way for their respective positions. Which is fine since all the players are a good fit for their positions, but Trebs clearly had the edge tactically this week given that he set up specific plans for opposition players.

---------------------------Morata-----------------------------------


With the best will in the world this was a mismatch; the home side may have some legends in there but they'd never be able to keep up with an excellent and vibrant Notts side, especially given the physical demands that would be placed on the twin #10s. I thought they'd struggle to see the ball let alone create much. Saying that, you don't lose your technical or mental capabilities with age and I reckon they've still got it in them to make a good chance or two for Milito.

I thought Alexis v Cashley was a mismatch and Morata would have a good time against the Tenby centre halves, though Milito could definitely work a yard against Jantschke.

Home 3+1
Draw 3
Away 7

RESULT: Tenby 1-1 Notts

Goals
Tenby: Milito (Rivaldo)
Notts: Alexis (Gerson)

Motm: Milito (Tenby). Changed the game by taking his one chance late on after Notts had dominated but failed to put the game out of the home side's reach.
