Another red arrow and it feels like all my decisions are going against me. I have now dropped outside of the top 2 million in the overall rank.
51 points was saved by Erling Haaland as a captain pick, while Casemiro was my next highest scorer with seven points. Those seven points were more than my three defenders and my goalkeeper.
