    Johnny Kenny has transferred to Celtic, but I assume he is not
    allowed to be registered for the CL.
    Going to be tough coming up with 12 players this round, as I think I
    have some injuries too.

    McGinn out, not even in lineup.  Souttar is injured

    New lineup, for now:

    DF: Taylor, Robertson, Scales

    FW: T. Parrot, T. Lawrence (rangers), B. Johnson (spurs) (C), A Idah

    Caught off guard by Besiktas-Athletic early start. Immobile started,
    Inaki Williams came on as a sub, final score 4-1, surely some of my
    UtNers got something... nope, nada, zip. It's all rigged by milivella,
    surely!

    That was a good call. Unfortunately Engels missed his penalty.

    Santi Gimenez gets his second from the spot, and the Rockers jump into
    first place. America is definitely becoming great (again?), but not
    thanks to those USAian slackers!

    A goal by Captain Haaland for the Vikings, and a few more left-outers
    (maybe the Jogo went a bit too far in its no-tinkering strategy?)

    Default lineups the ones that finished MD5:

    Who is even left now post-Conference? That'll be something for
    tomorrow. For now just make sure the early games are ok.

    Flickers
    DF: Tah, Rüdiger, Can
    MF: Kühn, Musiala (C), Goretzka, Sané, Wirtz, Führich, Wanner, Bischof >>> FW: Werner

    No action needed.

    Flickers
    DF: Tah, Schlotterbeck , Rüdiger
    MF: Wirtz (C), Nmecha, Kühn, Musiala, Goretzka, Sané
    FW: Undav, Leweling, Gnabry

    Being forced to wait in the rain for 90 soggy minutes, in prime
    tinkering time, cost dearly.

    Vikings
    DF: Danielson, Gunnarsson, Jansson
    MF: Nusa, K. Hansen, Gulliksen, K. Eriksen
    FW: Håland (C), Gyökeres, Sørloth, Elyounoussi, Botheim

    Bøving is in the early game, and with the now thin squad there's room
    for him.

    Vikings
    DF: Kristensen, Odin Bjørtuft, Niklas Hult
    MF: Bøving, Evjen, Hugo Larsson, Hedlund
    FW: Håland (C), Gyökeres, Højlund, Hauge, Zinckernagel

    Nobody in action this evening.

    Zinckernagel is now in Chicago so maybe drop him from the team?

    Vikings
    DF: Kristensen, Odin Bjørtuft, Niklas Hult
    MF: Bøving, P. Berg, Evjen, Hugo Larsson

    Being forced to wait in the rain for 90 soggy minutes, in prime
    tinkering time, cost dearly.

    Højlund isn't starting, but I can't find a good replacement. Isaksen is
    on for Lazio, but they're playing a Spanish team, so... Hope for Zirksee
    to suck and Højlund to come on as a super sub.

    That was a good call. Unfortunately Engels missed his penalty.

    (Elsewhere, goals by captain Santi Gimenez, Gyokeres and some left out
    goals)

    A goal by Captain Haaland for the Vikings, and a few more left-outers
    (maybe the Jogo went a bit too far in its no-tinkering strategy?)

    Standings after the Wednesday matches:

    Rockers 5:   Gimenez 2 (x2), David

    Goals by tinkered in Hogh (2), Evjen and Prince Adu. Nice battle between
    the Vikings and Rockers for first place, winner gets Greenland.

    Sub Troy Parrot saves the Gaels' blushed with a late winning goal for AZ Alkmaar.

    Just a Schwab goal in the last batch of matches to lift the Wonderland

    Looks like it will be a between the Vikings and the Wakas again, with
    the surtprising Rockers and the tinkerless Jogo maybe also with an
    outside chance.
    Double points in the last round.

    Rockers 5
    DF:
    MF:

    Perfect efficiency score for the Rockers!

    With double points, that lead is only good as a tiebreaker.

    With the final day schedule, not much can be expected from the Europa
    League vikings. Could be a good Flickers day, though.

    Byskov's goal has been assigned to Valdemar Andreasen, but as he's a
