💯 Our player of the week

Elisha Owusu (AJ Auxerre): 100 points against Stade Brestois

After losing four games in a row, AJ Auxerre recorded their second win of the season against Stade Brestois. Elisha Owusu played a big part. The Ghanaian midfielder scored the first goal and later provided an assist en route to a 3-0 win at home against a team that won the second game of their Champions League campaign just a few days later.

🎙️ Podcast highlights

Make it a Double Double

This week, the boys are back to full strength and welcome in the first ever manager (close enough anyway) on Sorare, YNWA! Talking all things football, basketball, populous American states (obviously) and displaying Aaron's ever improving ball knowledge. Come and pull up a chair at the Sorare saloon.

Listen to it on Spotify or watch it on YouTube.

🗓️ Competition schedule

• Game week 17 (11-15 October): The international break calls for an international competition – and there's also an All Star competition available.

• Game week 18 (15-18 October): We're looking ahead to this one – select your own target and win Essence when you score enough points (and there's also an All Star competition to win cards).

• Game week 20 (22-25 October): Two special competitions for all managers with players in the European competitions as well as the much-loved All Star global competition.

➡️ And to plan ahead, here’s the entire calendar for October.

Do you want to know more about your players? This is a great little tool to improve your gallery. It helps you to optimise the XP on your cards, you can quickly check which competitions offer the most rewards, and you can get alerts when your players are transferred. Finally, you can even provide suggestions to other managers which cards you may be willing to swap. And on top of that, it's all free!
