England has five teams in the Champions League for the first time and amazingly all of them are still unbeaten through three matches in group play. Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham all lead their groups with a combined 11 wins, four draws and no losses.
Hello Hello everyone. Welcome to another week of FCEPL.I’m Bryce Badwan and Arsenal fans! Are you okay? That was a rough one even for a neutral.
Alright lets get into 3 players you should look to pick up this week for your Fantasy Premier League squad.
Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City):
According to Pep Guardiola, Kevin De Bruyne is now “the best player in Europe bar one,” that being Lionel Messi. Against Stoke, De Bruyne provided a masterclass in all things beautiful, laying on two assists and three hockey assists.
Falling from grace is a long distance. A little more than a year ago, the whole town of Leicester City was celebrating an historic event: the Foxes had succeeded, against all odds, to win the Premier League title for the first time in their history.

Jose Mourinho's job is to win soccer games.
Actually, I'm going to walk that back. Jose Mourinho's job is to not lose soccer games, and he is extraordinarily good at it. What he is not extraordinarily good at is caring about literally anything else. For example, the feelings of anyone who may be watching one of his teams play a soccer game.
As such, readers will be shocked, SHOCKED, to learn that Manchester United travelled to Liverpool, parked the bus for 90 minutes and came away with a point. Importantly, they did not win. More importantly, they did not lose.
