Scout Notes

Jiménez scores again but fails to dazzle in laboured win over Bournemouth

Wolves 1-0 Bournemouth

  • Goals: Raúl Jiménez (£8.2m)
  • Assists: Adama Traoré (£5.8m)
  • Bonus Points: Jiménez x3, Jonny x2 (£5.4m), Willy Boly x1 (£4.8m), Romain Saïss x1 (£4.6m)

Raúl Jiménez (£8.2m) highlighted his consistency once again as Wolves beat Bournemouth 1-0 but he was not at his usual scintillating best.

The Mexican was arguably on the periphery of Wednesday’s encounter as both sides struggled to offer much for the neutral viewers. While it was a surprisingly dull game, proceedings at Molineux were hardly out of step with other Gameweek 31+ fixtures around the country. Given the circumstances of the Premier League’s three-month lay-off, it makes sense that the midweek round of action would come too soon after Gameweek 30+ for many players to be at 100% capacity.

That said, despite Nuno Espirito Santo deploying him as the central spearhead of Wolves’ 3-4-3 formation, Jiménez found himself drifting wide on occasion at Molineux and, in the end, scored with his only shot of the game.

Will that be of huge concern to his 34.2% ownership with Aston Villa up next? Surely not. The best players in the world manage to score even when they’re having a bad game, right? Jiménez now has four goals in his last five league matches and remains one of the few undroppable options at Nuno’s disposal.

Just as we saw against West Ham, the Mexican stayed on the pitch for 90 minutes, replaced in stoppage time by Daniel Podence (£5.0m), while those around him had their minutes managed more significantly. With nobody else in the squad capable of replicating his duties, another short turnaround before Saturday’s Midlands derby is unlikely to affect Jiménez’s game-time, especially considering how well he has coped with a busy 12 months. There will also a be a full week of recovery for Wolves between their Gameweek 32+ and 33+ fixtures to sit at the back of Nuno’s mind.

Diogo Jota (£6.4m) made a second successive start and, despite another spirited run-out, was replaced by Pedro Neto (£5.0m) on the hour-mark with another blank. The fact that has happened in both Project Restart matches demonstrates how much extra value Fantasy managers get even when spending an additional £1.8m on Jiménez.

Meanwhile, Adama Traoré (£5.8m) got his first start since the resumption of the Premier League but was taken off in a shape-change to 3-5-2 in the 72nd minute. That said, the Spaniard does look a more reliable form of investment than Jota, arguably a decent option to pair with Jiménez in our FPL squads. While Wolves were not particularly incisive against Bournemouth, Traoré’s pace and delivery led to him registering a carbon copy of the assist for Jiménez he provided at the London Stadium. Until someone learns how to deal with him, or the aerial threat of Wolves’ centre-forward, Traoré is sure to get more attacking returns.

However, making the case that he should feature in FPL squads as part of a triple-up continues to be complicated by Wolves’ excellent defence, who face an Aston Villa side in Gameweek 32+ that has toiled in front of goal so far.

It has been widely reported that Nuno’s men have become exceptionally hard to break down since Willy Boly (£4.8m) returned from injury but we will wheel it out once more. They have now kept a total of six clean sheets from a possible following the defender’s Gameweek 25 comeback. For that reason, Matt Doherty (£6.4m), Romain Saïss (£4.6m) and Rui Patrício (£5.2m) remain excellent options for the foreseeable future. Moroccan defender Saïss is still persistently proving great value, picking up bonus points for the third match in succession despite earning a booking against Bournemouth. That was his ninth yellow card of the season, so owners should be conscious that one more would mean a two-match ban.

Wolves defensive credentials are firmly established at this point but they were helped on this occasion by Bournemouth’s anaemic attack. Following their toothless display against Crystal Palace, Eddie Howe went for a 4-5-1 formation with Junior Stanislas (£5.9m) and David Brooks (£6.2m) on the flanks. They could not make up for the absence of Joshua King (£6.1m) though, which left Callum Wilson (£7.4m) isolated in the lone-forward role.

Fantasy managers were probably already targeting the Bournemouth attack on their search for clean sheets, but the appeal of Newcastle, Manchester United and Spurs defenders certainly rose after Bournemouth’s latest outing, as they are set to face them in the next three Gameweeks. Backlines of the Magpies and Red Devils will be especially pleased with Wilson picking up his 10th yellow of the season, consigning him to a two-match ban.

Wolves XI (3-4-3): Patricio; Saiss, Coady, Boly; Jonny, Neves, Moutinho (Gibbs-White 90+1’), Doherty; D Jota (Neto 62’), Jiménez (Podence 90’), Traoré (Dendoncker 73’).

Bournemouth XI (4-5-1): Ramsdale; A Smith, Aké, S Cook, Stacey (L Kelly 82’); Stanislas (Danjuma 66’), Lerma (Solanke 66’), L Cook, Billing (Gosling 50’), Brooks (H Wilson 66’); C Wilson.

    Best Ritchie replacement? Alongside TAA Doherty Holgate Schelotto

    Likely gonna bench for Holgate this week but will need a replacement next week if the injury is bad

    1. liiusions

      Got 3x United

    2. Jullepuu

      Aurier?

    3. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE

      Aurier?

      1. Jullepuu

        Lol

    4. My heart goes Salalalalah

      Saiss

    5. FlatTrackBully
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Aurier looked good against West Ham, attacking returns will come

    6. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Saiss, Aurier, Fernandez

    7. waddles mullet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Digne if you can get there?

      Aurier will cost Spurs clean sheets on his own... don't expect many more this season.

    8. Buck The Trent
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      is Ritchie ruled out?

  2. FOO FIGHTER
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Son or Jimenez?

    1. FlatTrackBully
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Jimenez

      1. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I really do not want to remove Son. He is one of those players that goes boom when you get rid...

        Only thing that is of concern is the Spurs attack looking really limp.

        Jimenez just ain't explosive and Wolves defensive assets just seem better value.

        I am keeping Son and doubling up on Wolves defence 🙂

        1. Dannyb
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Hang on what? Youve posted this then made up your own mind in 2 mins?

          1. FOO FIGHTER
            • 4 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            Wanted opinions.

        2. Easy Cheesy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Anyone ever worked out why jimi isn’t explosive? He is so consistent it doesn’t make sense for him not to haul. Only logic would be he is super clinical but doesn’t get many chances at all or he is rubbish but gets so many chances he Eventually puts on away

          But neither of those are my impression of him.

          1. Long ago I drew a walrus
            • 13 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            He is super clinical. I think in both of the last 2 matches he scored with his only shot on target

          2. pingissimus
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            Wolves aren’t that prolific really. They don’t have a record of putting the bottom feeders to the sword - this week a case in point

          3. Baps hunter
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            Perhaps they trust their defense after scoring? Just guessing though. He is not also the only one who scores in that team. So they are pretty likely to score one or two and after that defend the lead?

    2. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Jim

    3. lilmessipran
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Jimi

    4. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Instinctive answer is Jim but Sonny has a bigger ceiling probably.

    5. The Mandalorian
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Big Jim

  3. Jebiga
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Bruno to Martial for free ?

    1. Jullepuu
      • 4 Years

      Nahhh

    2. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Those knees they be jerking hard.

      Definite no for me (this week at least)

    3. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Bit knee jerk

      Getting both may pay off

    4. lilmessipran
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      N

    5. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Not at all. Get both.

    6. FlatTrackBully
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I'm giving Bruno Brighton and then reassessing.

  4. Jebiga
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Holgate or Lascelles ?

    1. teneighty
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Lascelles against bou.

  5. pingissimus
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    If I’m looking at a hit is it better just to postpone it to 33 given the FA Cup? Have a very full bench.

    1. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Ye, if ever there was a week to have a strong bench I think this is it given FA cup

      1. pingissimus
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Cheers

        Slight qualification is I have both Lord and Tammy - they’ll get minutes I feel sure but ...

    2. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Sensible thing would be to postpone

      ...however not many gw left and having missed fpl for several months I’m set on having fun for the rest of the season and taking more hits than usual, a high risk high reward approach

      Depends on how you wan5 to play

      1. pingissimus
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Same attitude here really. Having built for previous blank 31 and held TC for doubles I’m not that fussed where I end up - season strategy compromised already.

        Will still probably hold mind - not a week to attack I suspect

    2. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years

      I am in the same situation.

      Decided keeping Son and moving on Bruno to make way for Martial.

      1. TheDragon
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Bruno haul and martial blank incoming this week

        1. The Ejiptian King
          • 5 Years

          Remind me never to captain DCL again please mate.

          1. FOO FIGHTER
            • 4 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            Ha ha

          2. TheDragon
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            I mean.., I did try to suggest it was ‘bold’! Presume the week isn’t going great?

            1. The Ejiptian King
              • 5 Years
              3 years, 9 months ago

              69 with two losers to play (Pope and Masina), constantly let down by C choice all season, someone in my cash ML has got 226 in 2 weeks with BB and FH lol, I swear I'm one step away from going full Fudgy.

              1. TheDragon
                • 5 Years
                3 years, 9 months ago

                That’s a pretty decent score given Vardy and captain blank!

                I’m seriously considering Doherty captain this week (and I’m usually very dull with captain choice)

                1. The Ejiptian King
                  • 5 Years
                  3 years, 9 months ago

                  I'm Bruno or Martial at the moment, wish I'd perma capped Salah all season, need to check his record against City. I capped Doherty at home to Hudds last season.

                  1. TheDragon
                    • 5 Years
                    3 years, 9 months ago

                    United assets will be very popular captain choices this week no doubt. There are 2 reasons I don’t think I will be captaining them:

                    1. Brighton don’t concede many goals - recently only 1 a game
                    2. FA Cup match before the league game - so could throw a spanner in the works.

                    1. The Ejiptian King
                      • 5 Years
                      3 years, 9 months ago

                      Brighton not conceding many is fair, not worried about FA Cup though, I think we rotate for that, Bruno and Martial will both start the league game, top 4 takes priority.

    3. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      C

    4. Buck The Trent
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      C (maybe B next GW)

  8. fakelund
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Worth a -4 to get Azpilicueta in for Aarons this week, and bench Lundstram?

    Or hold and wait a week?

    1. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      There was a time back in the day when ‘never take a -4 for a defender’ was a thing

      Aarons is pretty terrible though....

      1. fakelund
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years

        I know, but he was playing bench fodder...

  9. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Have benching headaches and want Martial. Really kneejerk, I know.

    Mount + Sarr OUT
    Martial + Guendouzi IN -4

    Would give me this

    McCarthy
    TAA Doherty Holgate
    Salah KDB Fernandes Martial
    Vardy Rashford Jimenez

    (Krul Lascelles Taylor Guendouzi)
    With enough money ITB to switch Vardy out for Jesus after Liverpool game.

    YES or NO?

    1. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      If Mount and Sarr score hattricks tonight will you feel the same way?

      1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Nah, but they won't.

    2. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Magnus Carlsen is currently ranked as number one overall in fpl. As the highest ranked chess player ever and world number one for many years, he should be named as one off the greatest athletes off all time. Should be some articles about it on here, the guy is as big in chess as tiger golf, federer tennis .....

    1. The Ejiptian King
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      It was frequently discussed earlier in the season when he was top.

    2. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Certainly qualifies for "Egebergs ærespris"
      (Norwegian prize for national/world level excellence in several sports)

      1. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Is FPL a sport? 😀

        1. Baps hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Chess is and this is competition also 😉

        2. Pompel
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          If golf , snooker and chess and even PC gaming now are sports, surely FPL is , with all the effort, agony and sweat we endure 😉

    3. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Certainly one of or the best chess player, but wouldn't call him an athlete.

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Well, race drivers aren't athletes either, but it is sport?

        1. Pukki Party
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Chess is recognized as a sport by the olympic committee (i think?), just saying chess player aren't athletes

          1. Pukki Party
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            Just my view on why he shouldn't be compared to Federer or Tiger.

            1. Pompel
              • 10 Years
              3 years, 9 months ago

              Tiger an exception to the rule when it comes to golf, though (at least he used to be)

    2. FlatTrackBully

      Very similar to me. I'm rolling this week but keeping tabs on the Bruno/Martial straight swap.

  15. RVP20
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Which one on WC?

    (A) Traore
    (B) Foden

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

      A

    2. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      If 5th mid I would prefer someone cheaper who plays every week

      If 4th mid I would look to upgrade to Mount / Sarr

      1. Hog Roast Junkie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        If I had to chose one I would go A

  16. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Current team, £4.5mil ITB:

    Pope (McCarthy)
    TAA,Doherty,Saiss (Lascelles,Stephens)
    Bruno,KDB,Sarr,Perez (Fleck)
    Auba,Ings,Jiminez

    Thinking of doing Fleck to Martial and benching Perez - good move?

    1. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      You got a plan to get salah/ Mane for GW33 (if the league isn’t won by then)?

    2. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Assuming Auba can become Mo next time yes.

  17. The Polymath
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    What is the way forward with Man U? 3 attackers or 2 attackers and a defender or DDG?

    1. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Any option except DDG

      1. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        What's wrong with DDG?

        1. Hog Roast Junkie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Better value keepers imo

      2. Pompel
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        DDG is set and forget, and value at that price if the clean sheets keep coming. My thinking is was that the other four GK's that are likely to see a string of cleanies are either same price or dearer (Lloris, Patricio, Ederson, Allison, I've discounted Pope though), while there are cheaper defenders than AWB or Maguire available like Saïss or Aurier that should have same chance of clean sheets.

    2. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Either way is fine imo

    3. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I think 2 x attack and defender / DDG

      3 x attack is very all or nothing

    4. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I generally think 3 attackers from any team is generally too much. I went DDG , Bruno and Rashford on WC, after uch deliberation on Rash vs. Martial ..... Expecting quite a few easy CS 6 pointers until the end with those fixtures (famous last words)

    5. The Mandalorian
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      2 attackers plus AWB

  18. lordkippe
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Can I get away with this and save up a transfer ?

    Martinez

    TAA - Doherty - Maguire

    Salah - Son - Fernandes - Richarlison

    Rashford (C) - Jimenez - DCL

    Button - Kiko - Lascelles - Guendouzi

    1. JollyGoodYellows
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Definitely! Solid team!

  19. Karan14
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Better option out of these?

    A) Maguire, Jesus & Foden/DCL rotation

    B) Aurier/Boly, Rashford & Mahrez

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

  20. LIARS POKER
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Still got my TC left, is it worth trying to do Mane to Salah before AVL?

    Have always preferred owning Salah and would hate to TC Mane and Salah hauls

    1. Blitzar
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I think Salah looked extremely sharp yesterday even though it was his first game post lockdown. I see hauls incoming.

  21. Blitzar

    Hello there,
    Bruno VS Martial VS Rashford

    Bruno: Involved in the build up of play, but now since Rashford and Pogba are back he could become the assist of the assist kinda player.

    Martial: Ole wants him to play more as a number 9 and score them goals inside the box ( the simple tap ins ) and thats gonna be easily available to him since he has alot of creativity behind him.

    Question 1: Who amongst Bruno & Martial will score more points till the end of the season ?

    Question 2: Will Rashford challenge the above two for points ?

    Question 3: Out of Rashford, Martial, and Bruno which two would u select.

    1. The Mandalorian
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      In terms of stats if martial had the same chances as Salah he would have scored more goals.

    2. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      1. With that hot form, Martial , unless injured
      2. Martial > Bruno > Rash is my guess.
      3. Martial + Bruno (but went Rash + Bruno on WC)

  22. The Mandalorian
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    MUFC look on it right now, is it time to double or triple up on their players?

    1. The Ejiptian King
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Already doubled, would like to get Rash or a defender in too.

    2. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Got to be the triple up with their form and fixtures

      DDG/AWB/Maguire/Fernandes/Martial/Pogba/Rashford/Greenwood are all very good options

    3. The Mandalorian
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      AWB looks a must if attack is good. Could match TTA

      1. TheDragon
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Yes AWB is a good pick but...

        AWB: 0G, 3A
        TAA: 3G, 14A

        He is no TAA (but he doesn’t need to be at the price)

  23. Totti
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    any chance KDB won't start?

    have holgate on the bench 🙂

    need some jam 😀

    1. The Mandalorian
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      When u need KDB not to start so u can bring in those Holgate points somethings gone wrong 🙂

      1. Totti
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        KDB on all the sqauds 🙂
        but holgate not

        1. The Mandalorian
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Ive got his points sat on my bench to 🙁

  24. Musicholic
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Can everyone please spam Magnus Carlsen's twitter to join us on the next scoutcast? I think we could learn alot from his strategies.

    1. BNMC
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      How's his English?

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

        I think he's fine speaking in English

      2. TheDragon
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Extremely good

    2. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Get lots of points randomly off your bench was a key one at the start of the season

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

        Maintaining the spot is no joke

        1. TheDragon
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Oh yes I’m joking really.

          He is obviously a brilliant manager. He was in the top 100 either last season or the season before - so to be that high twice is almost unbelievable.

          I agree he would be a great guest. But he is very modest in terms of his FPL skill so I’m not sure he will give too much away

  25. STONEROSES
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Ederson, Button
    Aurier Saïss TAA holgate lascelles
    Salah KDB Martial Son Saka
    Rashford Jiminez Connolly

    This is WC team I’ve on so far. Any errors, omissions etc?

  26. BNMC
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Digne was on my FH team and he did great yesterday, but maybe he's one worth considering for the last 5 GWs? I'll have to look at some stats to see how the teams he's about to play do with defending set-pieces, but he has so many routes to points. Maybe a bit of a luxury pick but I have the money.

    1. JelliedSpark968
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      His final 3 fixtures are gold

  27. JelliedSpark968
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    If I had to get rid of one of Mane/Salah to get Bruno and Jesus/Rashford, which do I get rid of?

  28. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Guys, Any thoughts on what are the best GWs to play TC chip......currently looking at GW 33 on Salah v Villa ??

    1. BNMC
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      If things don't go Pool's way at the Etihad, that game should be where they wrap up the title.

      1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Thats a very good point..............lets hope City win tonight and v LFC...........

        1. BNMC
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Alternatively, use it on the final day of the season on a golden boot chaser.

  29. Dion D's Solo Shower
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Would you BB with a bench made up of these superstars?

    McCarthy - Lascelles - Højbjerg - Long

    Don't know why I have 3 SOU players, but looking at their fixtures it's either now against WAT or wait till GW37 when they play BOU.

    What's your take? Got 1 FT to change things a bit up.

  30. JelliedSpark968
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Current team:
    Henderson, Dubravka
    TAA, Boly, Fernandez, Taylor, Williams
    Mane, Salah, KdB, Sarr, Mooy
    Jimenez, DCL, Giroud
    1FT, 0.4ITB
    Which option?
    A) Mane + Giroud > Fernandes + Jesus
    B) Mane + Giroud > Fernandes + Rashford
    C) Roll FT
