RED ALERT RED ALERT

Liverpool are playing Wolves Friday night UK time, so if you don't want to miss out on the potential 1-3 points there, then best get in with picks before that kicks off, which is 9am tomorrow morning our time. 

Picks for Round 18 (normal picks this week i.e. liverpool/chelsea results only, score + two players for arsenal):

Tonight: 

Wolves v Liverpool

Tomorrow night:

Arsenal v Burnley

Chelsea v Leicester City

FYI, I have some work to do... as mentioned before I will put up picks rules for a few rounds worth, hopefully will get that done today/tomorrow, and I'll also update points with the League Cup exit round for Arsenal that we selected in our initial season picks. 

My picks:

Liverpool: Draw

Chelsea: Draw

Arsenal 3 Burnley 1

Aubameyang, Lacazette

Ok, as an FYI, these are the initial season picks that I will be able to add in as they come to pass;

10) Arsenal finishing round for League Cup

11) Arsenal finishing round for FA Cup

12) Arsenal finishing round for Europa League

13) Liverpool finishing round for the Champions League

14) R19 and R38 Arsenal position in the EPL

15) R19 and R38 Liverpool position in the EPL

19) Chelsea finishing round for Europa League

And maybe this, but only if things go extremely swimmingly from here!;

16) Round number for St Tott's Day confirmation

So on that note;

Table after Arsenal's League Cup Exit (each person's points in brackets):

Brumbys     110 (0)

Downey26  110 (0)

RonnieMac 101 (0)

Paulm           91 (0)

Kwlap           89 (5)

Ajc28            83 (5)

Surge           75 (5)

That's actually awesome. The bottom 3 all picked correctly, but no one else, so it scrunched the table up nicely. Anyone's game lads!

FYI, the Quarterfinals were actually the 5th round of the comp, so Surge definitely qualifies for the points for saying "Round 5" in his picks. 

HOLIDAY PICKS 

If you're going away, or worried about forgetting, feel free to pick as far in advance as you like. If you really want to pick beyond Jan 31, then let me know, happy to throw up more rounds if we need.
