Gaming The SM RedCafe League

Came from behind to win my game. Newcastle and Everton dropped points.

Top four
  1. Manchester United - 75 pts (+43 GD)
  2. Manchester City - 75 pts (+37 GD)
  3. Newcastle United - 72 pts (+20 GD)
  4. Everton - 69 pts (+25 GD)
Realistically, Everton can't win with their goal difference.

Remaining fixtures for the top three

Manchester United
(07) Tottenham Hotspur (A)
  • Manchester United have won 4 of the last 6 meetings between these clubs.
  • Tottenham Hotspur have won 2 of the last 6 meetings between these clubs.
(08) Arsenal (H)
  • Manchester United have won 5 of the last 7 meetings between these clubs.
  • Arsenal have won 1 of the last 7 meetings between these clubs.
Manchester City
(03) Newcastle United (A)
  • Manchester City have won 3 of the last 5 meetings between these clubs.
  • Newcastle United have won 1 of the last 5 meetings between these clubs.
(15) Wolverhampton Wanderers (H)
  • Manchester City have won 2 of the last 5 meetings between these clubs.
  • Wolverhampton Wanderers have won 3 of the last 5 meetings between these clubs.
Newcastle United
(02) Manchester City (H)
  • Newcastle United have won 1 of the last 5 meetings between these clubs.
  • Manchester City have won 3 of the last 5 meetings between these clubs.
(18) Queens Park Rangers (A)
  • They've played each other once previously - Newcastle United won.

Looking at remaining fixtures think it is safe to say whoever wins the Newcastle United vs Manchester City game will win the league, though with Newcastle being a fair bit behind with inferior GD it looks likely to be City even if Newcastle win.
 
With next line of concern checks tomorrow I think I should be okay:

GX1b8lD.png

From 89+, Bernardo Silva is only one at risk (61%, when 65% is needed) thanks to his rise.

Benassi could be at risk from the 88 and lower given he hasn't played a game this season and just rose last week.
 
League form of the current top four:

Manchester United (75pts)
First 10 games: W4 D4 L2 GF15 GA8 (16/30pts)
Last 10 games: W8 D2 L0 GF23 GA7 (26/30pts)

Manchester City (75pts)
First 10 games: W6 D4 L0 GF21 GA8 (22/30pts)
Last 10 games: W5 D4 L1 GF15 GA10 (19/30pts)

Newcastle United (72pts)
First 10 games: W7 D2 L1 GF20 GA15 (23/30pts)
Last 10 games: W6 D3 L1 GF18 GA9 (21/30pts)

Everton (69pts)
First 10 games: W4 D5 L1 GF14 GA10 (17/30pts)
Last 10 games: W6 D2 L2 GF17 GA9 (20/30pts)

Very similar form by both of us in first 10 games @The Stain
 
My squad for next season as it stands (the ^1 and v1 corresponds with change in # of that rating since I last did one ages ago when Memphis was still in the squad):

sCfVWNM.png

I expect Boateng and Gotze to go down though.
 
So to give an idea of the strength of my squad, this is my first XI:

De Gea (94)
Aurier (91) Ramos (95) Boateng (94) Rodriguez (91)
Pogba (93) Isco (92)
Bale (94) Griezmann (94) Özil (94)
Messi (99)​

And a cup XI where the only player used twice is De Gea

De Gea (94)
Roberto (90) Stones (89) Matip (89) Gaya (89)
Eriksen (91) Goretzka (89)
Silva (90) Götze (93) Sterling (90)
Martial (90)​

With Dier (89) as spare.

And so the German review comes. The review that will be for sure my worst review ever in the history of this game.

My predictions:
Jerome Boateng (28/94): -1
Mario Gotze (24/93): -1
Ricardo Rodriguez (24/91): no change
Leon Goretzka (21/88): no change
Tin Jedvaj (21/86): no change

Merry Christmas indeed.

Predictions:
David de Gea (26/94): no change
Mesut Özil (28/94): no change
Paul Pogba (23/93): no change
Christian Eriksen (24/91): no change
Raheem Sterling (22/90): no change
Anthony Martial (21/90): no change
John Stones (22/89): no change
Joël Matip (25/89): no change
Eric Dier (22/89): no change
Luke Shaw (21/88): no change
Kurt Zouma (22/88): no change
Calum Chambers (21/87): no change
Georges-Kevin N'Koudou (21/86): no change
Sam McQueen (21/76): no change
Brahim Diaz (17/75): no change
Marcus Edwards (18/70): no change

Really, I'd argue both Sterling and Dier should get an increase but none of the others. Can't see anyone rising though.
 
I'd like to see raises for Azpi and Sanchez, outside of that its unlikely.
 
Think only Winks will get a rise (Baker and Moreno out on loan), +5/7 maybe. Kompany with a drop.
 
Wasn't Renato Sanchez injured for most part of this season? How does he get a rise?
Disappointed with my rises so far.
Younus Malli (Expected + 1, No rise.)
Loureiro Allan (Expected + 1, No rise.)
Etrit Berisha (Expected + 1, No rise)
Daniele Baselli + 1 (Expected +2)
Edinson Cavani (Expected + 1, No rise. Don't understand this one.)
Marco Tumminello (Expected +2, No rise.)
Raul Asencio (Expected +2, No rise.)
Just hope that England and Spain give me some decent risers.
