Rutter has got off to a good start, it seems. Interesting buy.
I used to buy Max Aarons, quite a few years ago, when he was a kid. In those days he developed really quite well, but I've not paid him much attention in recent years.
I see you've broken the Dundee curse...

I see you've broken the Dundee curse...Thanks, yeah Rutter is one I looked at some time ago in a save in FIFA23, I think. He played for Galatasaray there. I've watched him a few times for Leeds since, and he strikes me more as a winger than a natural goalscorer. So he actually didn't match my search criteria for this window, as I started looking for a more proper number 9. But with 6 goals and 3 assists in his first three games, I suppose he's on the right path to prove me wrong...
Max Aarons, the same here. I looked him up a few times, when he was younger and had just got a scanned face in the game. I'm not sure I've ever signed him, but he seemed like a good option now, continuing the approach with "failed talents" from the Football League; James Tavernier, Todd Cantwell etc. And I suppose there's a Bournemouth link too, with Lewis Cook, Marcus Tavernier and now Max Aarons arriving at Rangers.
Big turnaround in the derbies this season. You had the upper hand for most of last season, but not this. Interesting development.
Some big scores recently in the Cinch Prem. It underlines how two-sided the league really is. As you predicted, it is really down to a two-horse race again.
Close call against Viktoria in the first leg but a comfortable return match. Given the 'names' left in the competition, Stade Rennais isn't a bad draw. The Milan-United draw iooks to be quite tasty.

Yes I agree. It's the third consecitive season with Rennes in the Europa League knockouts, so they shouldn't be taken lightly. But with a number of usual Champions League teams in the mix, I'm sure we could have done much worse.
The derby development IS quite funny actually. I was on some upgoing curve in the derbies, winning back to back domestic doubles and outperforming Celtic in Europe too. But last season they beat me in the semi final in the Europa League, and now it seems the tables have turned with them reaching the Champions League knockouts and having the upper hand in the derbies. It does make my overall experience from this game better though, not just going from strength to strength, but also encountering a bump on the road along the way.
