High stakes.

Yes! I did go back and check my spreadsheet's previous version. I gave you two points for this game.

I take full credit. I'd still release him...

I gave you the points - I've just not written the post correctly. Thanks for pointing it out.

What are your thoughts, folks?

It is tight! @Yorkie Bear retakes the lead of 'goal difference'! Correct Result (1 pt): Everyone who entered. Correct Number of Rangers Goals (1pt): Yorkie, SBG, Devil, compo, BEAR, Dado, DJ, Franc, r_s, CammyF, 26th, T-1000 and BD. FGS (2 pts): - Correct Score (3 pts): Yorkie, compo, BEAR, Dado, Franc and r_s. Latest Standings:

VAR bottled it at the end: clear penalty.

Three points and up the road.

I stand corrected. Apologies, @BlackSocksRedTops

Renew!

Ah - I could be wrong, to be fair. I do recall him playing the same team two games running.

I hope so, too, but I don't see it: they have to go to Citeh.

Of course it's not.

I've gone full pessimism in the GPL.

I was always in favour of retaining Ryan Jack, with the caveat that he would be able to play 20-30 games. He's only played 12 games worth of minutes this season (1080 minutes from 22 appearances), unfortunately. I think it's time to release him this season.

I would love to see a Liverpool victory: mainly because I detest Citeh, but also because it would make a brilliant end to the season; I don't see Citeh dropping any more points, so a little head start for Liverpool and Arsenal would make it interesting. A Citeh win means the season is over.

I wouldn't write off Raskin just yet - remember a month or two ago Cantwell was hooked at half-time (twice on the bounce?) and eventually learned what PC wanted him to do, becoming an essential player. I do think the box-to-box 6 role that PC likes suits Raskin.

Roofe is certainly one that would be higher up the list, but I thought Lundstram would provide a better subject for discussion.

This is the squad management argument. I think it's a good opportunity to free up high wages and reduce what is still a bloated squad.

Lundstram's contract ends at the end of the season. He is clearly a superb performer, yet is past 30 and presumably on high wages. With our new DoF could we prioritise a younger, cheaper option, a la Diomande? Or, is he too important to release? From a squad management point of view, I can see the argument for releasing him. What are your thought?

You could set your watch by it. The top two lost last week as well.

I love how Diomande has just instantly become an important first-team player. It's been far too long since that's happened.
