We gave PSG a thumping at our place in the cup this week so we will hope to repeat that success. Did either manager learn much about the opposition? Probably not. PSG will have a bit more confidence at home.
It's super tight in the chasing pack, Newcastle have the chance to do everyone a favour. The Toon have been inconsistent so far despite some great signings. Up front they are weak on paper (Man City game aside) so they might struggle against Schalke who are the complete package.
Villa and Madrid both have winnable away fixtures, but hopefully at least one of them will slip up.
Man City have as good a chance as ever to pick up some points, I think the Black Cats edge it on paper but with home advantage it could be a sky blue win.
Likewise Chelsea don't look great at the back, and they could well come back from Brazil empty handed.

I think for the chasing pack all eyes will be on the schalke vs Newcastle match and hoping Newcastle can get something out of the game!
Now united away this weekend not a bad side so will have to make sure I set us up tactically correct or it could be a slip up!
Not expecting much from PSG against Aberdeen so more of a reason I have to win same as the Madrid game!
Now Man City they have had some bad luck in this season so far but I think we are now gonna see the best of them, how will the new goalie get on??
Then it's off to Brazil for São Paulo vs Chelsea I see this being a draw which doesn't help either team

My major signing of the week was taking my gk, from a 28 rated player to a 29 rated one.
Will he help me keep a clean sheet!?

Yes I was wondering whether giving away 3 years for +0.4 skill points is a good deal or not. I guess every little helps you, and I doubt you're planning to keep him as your no.1 until he retires. Meanwhile for Barca he's a bench warmer, so 3 extra years is useful for them.

I had to look at my gk, he had gained 105 abs since the start of the season, to become 29 rated would taken 4 times as long as we have already had this season approximately.
Its a small price to pay in age, as my new gk has a good 5 seasons left, that is AGES in EFL, so plenty of time to try and bring in somebody even better...
