Two Gameweeks down and already the dilemmas are building; the siren song of the Wildcard button is calling.

Failing big hitters are the major bone of contention as Jonty, Andy and Luke join me for the second ScoutCast of the season.

We give our verdicts on Spurs talisman Harry Kane, while also assessing the fall-out from Manchester City and, in particular, the shot-shy Kevin De Bruyne.

Driven by another round of community questions, we also chew over The Pogba vs Mkhitaryan debate and the big Bournemouth bail out, before previewing Gameweek 3.

Oh, and after his ten point return on the Aaron Mooy investment, we wrestle to prevent Jonty dropping his name into the conversation at every opportunity. I think I counted two. That’s a win for everyone involved.

This ScoutCast was first beamed live via our YouTube channel on Tuesday night. Be sure to subscribe to get notice of future live episodes.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Good morning all 🙂

    Would you play ...

    Naughton or Daniels?

    Fraser or Tom Carroll?

      the swans

      Swansea play Crystal Palace away.
      Bournemouth have Man City at home.

      Good morning Virg. Naughton and Fraser 🙂

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        That's what I was leaning towards.

        But Jonty left a lot of Daniels points on the bench last season. Bit worried about that.

          When's the next twitter meet?

            • 9 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            I'm trying to change my ways and not to be a plonker these days.

            1. Dreams
              • 8 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              Stop promoting Trigger Lips. That would be a step ahead in the right direction.

              1. FPL Virgin

                • 9 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                TriggerLips is a FPL authority, though.

                His advice and analysis helps people get good GW scores.

                  He'll do that himself Virg. I'd say you should start your own blog or something. I'll be the first subscriber.

                    • 9 Years

                    Thanks Dreams 🙂

              Oh ffs everyone gets drunk and makes a fool... it's so shameful but it's so funny 😆

              1. FPL Virgin

                • 9 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                I called him unbearably smug and said he should thank Jonty for getting Pogba in. Wasn't my finest hour.

                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  And you called the who got the assist boys a disgrace to experienced managers for daring to suggest they wanted to wildcard early .

                  1. FPL Virgin
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 9 Years
                    8 years, 3 months ago

                    That was poor form on my behalf and I did apologise (again).

                    I do think there is a grain of truth in my point about SOME early wildcarders not planning properly for the opening Gameweeks.

        2. Dreams
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          At the current rate, I think it would be a better idea to leave the points Daniels may get you on the bench. 😉

      I hate those uppity damn swans! Have always thought they're better than me. Pffft!

      But yeah, pick the swans. 😉

        Do you find it hard to stay in character when discussing things like minutes per baseline bonus?

        1. FlockofSeagulls
          • 8 Years

          Stay in character? Sorry I'm not familiar with this human term. 😉

            Years ago we had a genuine Wookie regularly comment.

            He always started posts with a Rooooaaaarrr!!!

            Never once pretended he was a human.

            I embrace our feathered visitors - understandably with my Grav. 🙂

              Mornin' Jonty. 🙂

              Will you be ditching KDB even though he has only played 1.5 games?

              1. J0E
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • Has Moderation Rights

                8 years, 3 months ago

                Long term I want Eriksen and want to be able to consider getting Sanchez / Coutinho / hazard in.

                Yes kdb can do damage but at home city are suspect and 10m is very steep.

                As Ruth nz has said many times every £ is precious and player prices need to work for their team.

                I think Eriksen can next few, I think pogba can too ... but kdb seems an expensive luxury.

                He will punish me no doubt - and many others. They and I will get lol - ed at no doubt but with 2m in the bank and Eriksen raring to go I think it's the best move.

              Don't put your personal preferences ahead of your professional duties Jonty. That's really unprofessional. 😉

      Salah price drop is bizarre but welcome given I'd like to bring him in soonish. Sané price drop also welcome - I hop his price plummets so when he gets a run he'll be chip as chips 🙂

    Foster

    Elliot; Carroll, Mee, Long ... 1.5ITB

    1. More Tragic
      • 10 Years

      Kane > Aguero

      1. Turbolag
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Now's probably not the time to drop Kane...

      2. fedolefan
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        “When the game is in the last 15 or 20 minutes, the opponent is tired and we’ve moved them during the game, we can put into the game dynamic players like Bernardo Silva, Raz (Sterling) or Sane. In another game maybe it’s Sergio (Aguero) or Gabriel (Jesus). So it’s a point where we can win games in the last minutes.”

        Good luck dealing with that. He may outscore Kane this week, but be wary of offering such advice, given one is 100% nailed and the other is not.

        Stop. You are trolling now.

    2. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      If you're feeling cheeky, I'd do Willian to Siggy as a differential.

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      That's solid as a rock. I like the no Man City approach - wouldn't be going near them for FPL this year, Pep is a disaster zone

  5. FPL Virgin

    Is Coutinho staying???

    Barcelona have agreed a deal worth up to 150m euros (£138m) to sign Borussia Dortmund's 20-year-old France forward Ousmane Dembele. (L'Equipe - in French)

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Maybe. Keeping him in draft team for another week.

      1. FC Lackless [BALEGIUM]
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        this

    2. Turbolag
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      I mean, Liverpool was adamant that he would.

    3. Twisted Saltergater
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Salah sellers are going to feel a bit silly when Coutinho starts providing bullets too.

  6. FPL Virgin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Would you play ...

    Naughton or Daniels?

    Fraser or Tom Carroll?

    1. Mark
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 18 Years

      I'd always play the BOU pair I think. Just have more about them.

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks, Mark.

        Are you starting them both?

        1. Mark
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 18 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Depends. If Daniels is dropping, I'll likely go Trippier or Hegazi and start them.

          If I hold Daniels, I'll likely start Fraser.

          1. Captain Roberto
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            weren't you talking about a Bournemouth exodus? Now you're saying to keep them?

    Hey guys how are we doing?
    Am i G2G?

    1. That Was Easy!
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Yes, you're good to go. No reason for a hit this week although I'd maybe recommend a WC after this week.

  8. tafrère
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Is Kane that essential ?

    He scored 7 goals in the final two games of last season. So before that he was "only" at 22 (less than Lukaku and only two more than Aguero). He plays in a team that will lose most games against top oppositions. Do you want your more expensive striker to play in a team that will mostly score less goals than the opposite side when it comes down to big Premier League clashes ? (for example against Chelsea last week).

    I don't say it's a bad idea to own him or that you should get rid if you have him. Actually I just brought him in on my WC. But I didn't brought him in thinking of him as a season keeper but mostly because of the great fixtures coming. I think that with Aguero, Lukaku and Morata playing on top teams and costing 1m less or 2.5m less, you can go without him and upgrade other areas. Even Firmino can be a good pick and you save 4m doing that, that's huge.

    What are your thoughts ?

    1. That Was Easy!
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      You might've forgotten that Kane missed something like 8-9 games last year..

      1. That Was Easy!
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        I think there comes a point where 12.5 is too much to keep faith in a player when he's not putting up the actual points, but that hasn't came yet. I am more intrigued to see how Spurs will do attacking as a team this year, which as you said it if they aren't firing then there's many sensible options for cheap.

      2. More Tragic
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        which he might do again, twice his ankle has gone now

      3. tafrère
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Aguero did miss a lot of games too.

    2. More Tragic
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      same as yours

    3. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      You summed up my thoughts in the first sentence "He scored 7 goals in the final two games".

      I'm more than happy to invest in a player that can do that.

      1. tafrère

        I don't know, for a so called season keeper that's not really amazing news imo.

        garbage time end of season meaningless games.
        He's had zero in 2 'meaningful' games so far

          Bagged me 75 some points in the final 2 gameweeks, I don't care when he scores them.

            He's bagged you 2 points in the first 2 gameweeks.

              I included him in my GW1 squad to captain him this week, the 1-pters from him were shared by a third of managers so I'm not too upset.

    4. Turbolag
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      I believe he's not essential, but it has more to do with the other great premium options and the fact that I think his goal conversion rate will regress.

    5. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      He's had 14 attempts in 2 weeks (11 in the box!) & somehow managed to blank... think it's a genuine case of being unlucky & provided he avoids injury, the law of averages will catch up soon. At this rate he should definitely score v Burnley, hopefully a brace, possibly even a hattrick to balance things out

      1. Turbolag
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        The law of averages isn't real. Shots are simply an indicator of past scoring potential that you hope carries over to the future.

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          If he had only 1 or 2 shots, that would be genuine cause for concern. He could still easily be on 50 or 60 points from the first 6 games

          1. Turbolag
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            Sure, but in reality he only got 2. I want to dispel this "law of averages" nonsense and say that his performance by any metric over the first 2 weeks shouldn't affect your expectations for this week.

            1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
              • 15 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              You're contradicting yourself - by basing your expectations for his performance this year to regress from last year & simultaneously saying past performances should not influence future expectations... I believe his goal conversion rate will progress from his GW1-2 performances. It may not come in GW3, but combined with the fixture, it's likely to come in GW3.

              1. Turbolag
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                "Regress" was admittedly the wrong word to use. I suppose what I meant was "After examining the data, I predict that Kane's conversion rate this year will be lower than his conversion rate last year."

                1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
                  • 15 Years
                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  But the irony was that you actually refer to the law of averages bringing Kane's goal conversion down last year & then say you want to dispel it as nonsense in bringing his goal conversion up from GW1/2. Totally agree he is not guaranteed to score v Burnley in a one off game, but totally disagree that he is not likely to score v Burnley given his stats in GW1/2

                  1. Turbolag
                    • 9 Years
                    8 years, 3 months ago

                    What? When did I use the law of averages in my arguments about Kane? As I said above I'm not saying that I expect anything to average out. I did my research, and my prediction for his conversion rate came out lower than his conversion rate last year. The faulty "law of averages" logic was not involved in that conclusion.

                    I also never said that he was not likely to score against Burnley, just that his performances in weeks 1 and 2 do no make him more likely to score than if this was the first match of the season.

                    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
                      • 15 Years
                      8 years, 3 months ago

                      By saying you expect Kane's goal conversion to regress... where will it regress from? Above the mean, where will it regress to... towards the mean

                      1. Turbolag
                        • 9 Years
                        8 years, 3 months ago

                        Once again, "regress" was the wrong word to use. I only used it because it is commonly (incorrectly) used in that sense, and I it was much faster than typing out the more correct version above.

            2. fedolefan
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              Why is the law of averages nonsense? It doesn't mean you'll get lucky. It just means if you get in the right positions and keep taking shots, your skill level will ensure you will get your fair share of points. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. There is always a certain percentage of shots you take that will work. That is the law of averages. Yes, it doesn't apply to one week in isolation but it can be a fairly accurate when you look at a few weeks grouped together.

              1. Turbolag
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                Usually, the law averages is used to say "If an event has happened less often than expected in the past, it will happen more often than expected in the future, thereby making the average frequency of occurrence match the expected frequency."

                This is mathematically incorrect. Consider the classic example of flipping a coin. If I flip a coin 5 times and it comes up heads every time, the law of averages would say that it would be more likely to come up tails if I flipped it again in order to bring the average frequency of tails closer to 50%, which is obviously incorrect.

                In FPL terms, the law of averages would say that because Kane scored less often than one would expect in the past two weeks, he will score more than we expect in the future so that his scoring output matches the expect value.

                1. Netley Lucas
                  • 10 Years
                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  The 14 shots no goals is quite bizarre, even meh sides will get 3, nevermind golden boot winner 😆

                2. fedolefan
                  • 11 Years
                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  I don't think anyone meant it that way. They merely mean in terms of shots, if he's getting so many chances, he's that good a player, that he will likely put away a few chances. He has scored 21, 25 and 29 goals in the last three years, so there is no real reason to believe he'll suddenly go through a 10 game barren spell. It may happen, for sure, but with his attempts at goal, I'd rather err on the side of having him in my team than not.

                3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
                  • 15 Years
                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  But coin tosses are random! Strikers are more likely to score the more chances their team generates for them & the more shots on goal they have... the statistics in GW1/2 indicate that Spurs are generating high amounts of chances for Kane, which makes him more likely to score....

                  Add the word "random" into the first sentence about law of averages, it makes a big difference

                  1. Turbolag
                    • 9 Years
                    8 years, 3 months ago

                    Right, I'm making this argument in the context of goal conversion rate, which is the ratio of goals to shots. When a player takes a shot, there is a certain probability that it goes in. That's where the element of randomness comes in. The shots do give him more chances, I'm not arguing that at all. What I'm saying is that the fact that he was "unlucky" by not scoring on the ridiculous number of shots he took in the first two weeks does not mean he should be "lucky" (be more likely to score on a given shot than expected) in the future. It's up to you to decide what that expected likelihood is.

                  • 11 Years
                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  Put simply, if Kane keeps taking shots as frequently as he has been doing in the first two games for the rest of the season he will probably be the top scorer in the league again.

    Who else is thinking of bringing Sigurdsson in now? If KDB blanks this week, I will have no choice but to sell him. Not only will he not have paid me back for 10m, he will drop in value. Sigurdsson has 3 tough matches (Chelsea, Spurs and United) but really, Chelsea don't look great at the moment. He is also 8.4m but after the wonder goal tonight, he is picking up momentum. Any strong opinions one way or the other out there?

        Yeah. Three more tough ones then a nice run with only really Arsenal who can be considered tough and they look shite at the moment. Sold 1 CD and about to sell another and have full backs playing in CD.

        1. Heels_Over_Head

          He usually fancies tough fixtures. Good away scoring record too.

          Hoping he stays quiet as I need to raise cash to buy him but...

                    Didn't watch the game, that's why I'm asking. How did he make a shot-in-box performance look unimpressive?

                      *6 shot-in-box performance.

                      I don't follow stats particularly for this very reason. I'm not saying they're always wrong, of course not, but there are shots and there are shots and although he played ok I'm amazed he's become a bandwagon. Although I shouldn't be because stats rule here.

          News for those buying Trippier. Aurier possibly inbound.

            Still has to get a visa. I wouldn't worry too much yet.

              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 8 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              That won't take long and will defo be ready to start after the international break.

              That's cancelled my Trippier transfer this week

              1. Turbolag
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                It's not time that I'm worried about. It's the fact that he's previously been denied a visa.

                1. FPL.team
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 8 Years
                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  Nothing a few Levy millions and expensive lawyers can't quickly overcome.

                  I highly doubt it will be an issue.

                  1. Turbolag
                    • 9 Years
                    8 years, 3 months ago

                    Apparently it was bad enough that he had to reneg on a deal with United. If they couldn't get him in, I'm not sure Tottenham can.

                    1. FPL.team
                      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                      • 8 Years
                      8 years, 3 months ago

                      If that's the case why are Spurs even going for him and wasting their time?

                      I'd be suprised if it doesn't go through.

                        8 years, 3 months ago

                        and you think he's nailed to start?

                        1. FPL.team

                          Now that I don't know.

                          All I do know is that it would put serious pressure on Trippiers starting place and it wouldn't suprise me if he was dropped eventually lf not at first.

            Balls. That's torn it.

            Looks like it's Hegazi. I'll have to get that "mind your head" sign for the dressing room doorway now.

              Surely, it's too late to join his bandwagon? I've missed the WBA defensive ship this year and can't join now!

              McAuley possibly back after the break too. No cash for Davies?

              1. Team Cruel
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 10 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                McA is like 54. He can't start forever.

                • 9 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                I doubt a 38 year old centre back will start over probably their best defender right now tbh

            2. Al
              • 10 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              Hegazi assured starter after the International break? McAuley may well be back, Hagazi has impressed no doubt however.

              1. Mark
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • Has Moderation Rights
                • 18 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                Maybe not but he's my fourth defender currently so it's no biggie if there's some insecurity on McAuley's return.

                I think McAuley might be done though. EFL Cup beckons perhaps.

                1. Al
                  • 10 Years
                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  Could well be right there. Wonder how West Brom will shape up with the expected Evans departure, imo their best defender. Wimmer of Spurs is being linked as replacement.

              Too weak forward line?
              Mikhi and Pogba too much?
              Should I improve Mbemba due to international break?

                you can never have too much spurs but wcing and losing lukaku will be a season-defining mistake.

                1. Eze Really?
                  • 11 Years

                  Thought about it a long time.
                  He runs hot and cold and I think Kane has been unlucky not to have a few goals to his name. Too restricting to have both.

                I'm on a WC too. Got Mkhi and Pogba in. So far been worth it for the .1 at least. That midfield is pretty stellar, but the forward line does look a bit weak.

                1. Eze Really?
                  • 11 Years
                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  I agree. Don't know why I ask really. Just cannot see me losing my mids or Alonso.

                Did I say that?! Tbf, I'm rubbish at days of the month. Alphabet. That kind of junior school stuff. Nah, I don't really do any editing these days.

                I just like to get that out as the Thursday post for old times sake - I think it was always that night back in the day.

                Could pusht it out Wednesday and swap a few things around.

                  You were mentioning the x amount of GWs between November 31 and the new year 😀

                  I don't mind really. Usually watch half the episode Tuesday evening with the second part during breakfast the next morning. I guess if the podcast was out earlier then I could catch it in its entirety during a gym session but it doesn't make much difference either way.

                  I'd also like an earlier release if possible! Don't always get a chance to listen before the gameweek starts otherwise.

              Why are some people here cray cray? Kane sucks, gotta go. Salah is out. KDB forget it he is the worst. Seriously people? Who cares about your GW2 score? And don't even start feeding me that BS about you being able to adequately jump on and off bandwagons. Never happens consistently. Just get the proven assets and be patient. I am almost embarrassed to be writing this.

                Agreed.. I have salah kdb and Kane .. patience has been needed

                I think we saw last season that sitting on "proven" assets for too long saw you miss other heavy hitters who accelerated in price. The landscape changed somewhat.

                I held Hazard through a bad spell and it nearly murdered me while Alli/Eriksen delivered.

                Sometimes you have to jump off a quality proven asset. I do agree that GW2 is too early though, of course but the temptation to jump as soon as doubts crop up is understandable.

                It takes willpower when prices are so volatile.

                  I "cracked" and did KdB > Eriksen to beat the price rise. Its more a longterm move anyway plus I really need the 0.5 for the rest of the team

                Hysteria takes over and I've been guilty of it in the past. "Insanity is doing the same thing expecting different results".

                Last year I was taking hits to switch Sanchez to Ibra. This year I'm sitting tight and focussing on information rather than early green arrows.

                  Yeah I'm trying to be patient this time.. agreed, I had many sideways movements for significant hits last year

                That's a cowardly approach to playing the game.

                I'm quite stunned at the number of wildcards that are floating around. Surely things couldn't have been that bad to wildcard before the window has even closed.

                Me? I admit to doing KDB to Mhki with one of my two free transfers this week, but that was due more to my hand being forced on having to correct my Iwobi punt and wanting to play more in the Ramsey/Antonio range than the Mooy/Atsu range for that transfer.

                I think most people are getting rid of KDB because they don't think he's worth his price tag, Eriksen will prob match or outscore KDB and is 0.5 cheaper. Spurs fixtures also appeal and Man City have been disappointing

              People still with De Bruyne - Is your plan to keep him for Bournemouth then ship out regardless, or see how he does and reassess?

                Im not keeping, didnt really think he's worth 10m watching MCI gw1 and gw2

                  • 9 Years
                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  The reason he's still there for me is because of his performances against them last season - every time I ignore those sort of stats I get punished.

                Can't see the sense in keeping him after Bournemouth

                • 9 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                Yep, I'm not so fussed with slow starts this year for whatever reason. I know the player's quality and the teams quality and the selective bias of slowness of price moves toward big name players so just slowing my roll. Hopefully he will do well this week.

                • 10 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                Keeping and most likely shipping to Eriksen against his favourite opponent Swansea GW 5. Bournemouth's a great KDB fixture.

              5. Moves like Dejagah
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                I'm seeing how advanced he is against Bournemouth and then reassessing after that.

                • 10 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                One of the reasons he was in our teams compared to this time last season was Sanchez/Hazard. They're on the way back with Utd/Spurs/Pool mids all cheaper.

                Watch the Bournemouth game and reassess.

                1. Ohhh Shola Ameobi
                  • 9 Years
                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  Agreed. I think Bournemouth will be the end of his stint in my team, and it would likely take a masterclass to keep him there. Sanchez, Hazard and Coutinho are going to change things massively, and Eriksen is already a very good alternative.

                Probably. Or I'll keep him to ride out the 0.3 price rise after his 28 point return.

                I'm delirious. Must be time for bed.

                  Sell before he drops, bring in before the rise. He's out of my team.

                  4 goals, an assist, clean sheet, max bonus and a yellow card? Quite the match from the Belgian!

                  Let's hope Kevin is getting a tad more rest than you are ahead of his 28 point haul 😉 Goodnight!

              Leaning towards a save this GW and then probably 3 transfers next.

              Some big decisions here.
              Kolasinac, KDB, Firmino under pressure for necessary downgrading/upgrading in midfield especially.

              Thoughts?

              Elliot.
              Kolasinac, Jones, Yoshida.
              Willian, KDB, Ramsey, JWP.
              Kane(c), Lukaku (vc), Firmino.

              Begovic, Carroll, Mee, Dummett.
              Have 1ft, 0.0m.

                • 10 Years

                play Carroll over JWP. Doubt's over a start.

                  • 14 Years

                  Shows how terrible my mids are!

              • 14 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              Would you start Carroll (cpa) or JWP (hud) this GW?
              It's close.

                • 11 Years

                Carrol, until JWP nails down a place...I think you have to go with Tommy boy as he has looked really good and more likely to play 90!

                Cahill & Smalling

                1. Hurricane Gilbert
                  • 9 Years
                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  Even now when Jones has taken his place in Utd? What about Stones or Maguire?

                    • 16 Years
                    8 years, 3 months ago

                    It's possible that Jones could challenge Smalling as he is the one under most threat

                Has to be Keane, aye? He's by far the best CB
