Ziyech’s FPL ownership and price on the rise as new-look Chelsea find their rhythm

Chelsea 4-1 Sheffield United

  • Goals: Tammy Abraham (£7.2m), Ben Chilwell (£6.0m), Thiago Silva (£5.5m), Timo Werner (£9.4m) | David McGoldrick (£5.3m)
  • Assists: Hakim Ziyech (£8.1m) x2, Mateo Kovacic (£5.3m), N’Golo Kante (£4.9m) | Sander Berge (£5.0m)
  • Bonus: Ziyech x3, Abraham x2, Werner x1

Chelsea came from behind to beat Sheffield United with a performance that ticked many a Fantasy box.

All four of the home side’s goals involved summer signings and the victory underlined the impression that coach Frank Lampard is finally finding the right balance in his team, from Abraham to Ziyech.

Double Bubble

One of Lampard’s key moves has been to find room for both Tammy Abraham (£7.2m) and Timo Werner (£9.4m) in the starting XI.

Saturday’s result meant Chelsea have won three games and drawn one, scoring 14 goals and conceding four, when the duo start together in the league.

Lampard talked about the pair after the midweek win over Rennes in the Champions League in which they also both started (and scored):

When we brought in players in attacking areas we brought in players who are versatile in their nature, Timo playing on the left for instance. The qualities Tammy can bring to the team are never lost on me.

Werner’s ownership has been yo-yoing this season, with the trend upward at present. He’s now in 23.6% of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) squads, with 25,000+ new managers buying into him ahead of the international break.

The 2.2%-owned Abraham remains the differential pick of the two, which is hardly surprising when he’s started just the four games to Werner’s eight in the league this season. But he’s produced  two goals and two assists from those matches.

And the pair’s threat is so strong that Lampard could be tempted to view them both, and not just Werner, as nailed-on starters.

Midfield Merriment

Maximum bonus points and a double-digit haul went to Hakim Ziyech (£8.1m) – for the second straight Gameweek.

He’s now amassed 25 points from his first two starts in the league and his ownership is ballooning.

He went from 114,819 to 624,213 FPL managers on the strength of his goal and assist against Burnley in Gameweek 7 and he’s already top of the transfers in for Gameweek 9 thanks to his brace of assists against Sheffield United.

Small wonder that Lampard was gushing in his post-match praise:

He exudes confidences in how much he wants to receive the ball and be the important player. He also has great work ethic so he is a complete player. He’s been a big plus and I expect there is a lot more to come from him.

It’s only been two full games, but there’s a strong sense that it is Ziyech, and not the self-isolating Kai Havertz (£8.3m), who could be the key player when it comes to Lampard finding the right balance in his team:

The balance of the team felt great. There were so many good things in what we were creating, we scored two goals from set pieces. I don’t want to get too carried away but I’m happy.

Not getting carried away should be the theme for FPL bosses as well because Chelsea’s next six matches are probably not as easy as they might appear on FPL’s Fixture Difficulty Rating.

A Gameweek 10 visit from Spurs and games against an obdurate Wolves and this season’s surprise package West Ham all look tricky, but Ziyech is making an incredibly strong case for inclusion anyway.

Defenders On The Attack

The second most-bought defender ahead of Gameweek 8 was Chilwell, who scored his second goal in three home matches.

That appeased the 324,298 new owners who were hoping for a fourth clean sheet in the last five league fixtures from Chelsea.

Considerably fewer managers enjoyed Thiago Silva‘s (£5.5m) first attacking return for the Blues, but those goals underlined the potency of Lampard’s defenders.

The most popular defensive transfer for the Gameweek was Kurt Zouma (£5.3m), who was brought in by more than half a million managers on the back of the Blues’ new-found defensive stability and the centre-half’s three goals this season.

Thanks to Silva’s strike, all four of Lampard’s regular backline have now scored.

Zouma leads the way for goals among defenders and Chilwell is second (he also has two assists), while Reece James (£5.0m) is the other to have found the net, with an assist to his name from his six starts as well.

Small wonder that three of that back four are now in the top 10 for both points and ownership among FPL defenders, with Thiago (3.1%) the only outlier (and differential).

Sheffield Of Bad Dreams

One point from eight matches, just four goals scored and zero clean sheets kept, the Blades are the bluntest of weapons at the moment.

Manager Chris Wilder was as honest as ever with his assessment of his team:

At times my teams are naive. It’s irrelevant. We have given away some poor goals. I think we have to look at ourselves.

It’s fair to say few Fantasy managers are looking at his players.

David McGoldrick‘s (£5.3m) second strike of the season meant he’s now been involved in half of the side’s goals.

But his strike partner, and the Blades’ most popular asset in FPL, Rhian Brewster (£4.5m and 6.7%), had a wretched time of it at Stamford Bridge.

Brewster’s undoubted promise, and cheap price tag, has persuaded a decent chunk of FPL managers to have him as their third striker.

Based on his complete non-involvement on Saturday, even at £4.5m he’s a waste of money.

As for the Blades as a team, the 431 shots they conceded last season was bettered by only seven teams. This year’s total – 120 – is the league’s second worst.

Never a team to create many chances, unless they can sort out their defensive issues, their players will remain a major Fantasy no-no.


Chelsea XI (4-3-2-1): Mendy; James, Zouma, Silva, Chilwell; Kante, Kovacic (Jorginho 71′), Mount; Werner (Giroud 87′), Ziyech; Abraham. 

Sheffield United XI (4-4-2): Ramsdale; Baldock, Stevens, Basham, Egan; Lundstram, Berge, Lowe, Norwood (Osborn 62′); McGoldrick, Brewster (McBurnie 63′).

    I don’t own DCL, but keen for Everton attacker. Realised richarlison and him are now the same price. Rich on pens a better option?

    1. mikess
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Rusty after being suspended? Or raring to go

    2. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I’d get Rich

    3. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Prefer DCL stood in the box. The goal against Newcastle was a good example of doing nothing and getting 8pts

    4. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Calvert Lewin for now. Still looks confident.

  2. The Mandalorian
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Ziyech looks like the next bandwagon to make money on. If I sell Kane and Son I lose money, others here probably the same. Buying Ziyech is away of getting that money back to be able to afford Son and Kane in the future.

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      How do you set up a team value mini league?

      1. The Mandalorian
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Excel spreadsheet

        1. RAFA THE GAFFA
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Sounds fun

          1. The Mandalorian
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            A fun mini league is highest scorer for the week. Don't deduct hits just like playing FH every week. Then award 2 or 3 points for the winner which goes into an excel spreadsheet.

  3. The-Red-1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Which is better? Number 1 by a long way?

    Chilwell, Watkins (Bissouma on bench)
    Konsa, Zaha (Brewster on bench)

    1. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yes

    2. Puntillimon
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      1 for me, no contest

    3. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      1

    4. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yup

  4. Bennyboy1907
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Early thoughts pls?

    Martinez (Forster)
    Robbo Chillwell Lamptey (Saiss, Mitchell)
    Salah Son Grealish Zaha (Bissouma)
    Kane DCL Bamford

    Have 2FT and 1.1Mil ITB

    Was thinking
    A) zaha to ziyech
    Saiss to cancelo

    ORR

    B) Son to Bruno
    Saiss to Coufal

  5. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Is Son to Bruno (c) and TAA to Cancelo best moves here for -4 ( If TAA fit Saïss to Coufal) I have a few defensive issues with potentially 2 starters. Any suggestions very welcome- would have liked to remove Podence but he survives another week...

    Martinez
    TAA* Lamptey Chilwell
    Salah Son Ziyech Grealish Podence
    Kane DCL

    Forster Brewster Saïss* Mitchell*

    1. caldracula
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      The second transfer can wait a week, even if TAA is injured your better off hoping for something from Saiss/Mitchell. It’s unlikely that Cancelo will get more than 4 points vs Spurs.

  6. Slitherene
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    I have 2 options on WC

    A) Fernandes - Watkins - Berge
    B) Rashford - Grealish - Brewster

    Which one would you go for?

    1. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A

  7. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Set with this move:
    Son Kane > Bruno Jesus
    Yes or No?

    1. No Professionals
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      i just struggle with selling kane. until he shows sign of drying up, i'm not going to second guess it. especially for a rotation risk like Jesus (when Aguero is back).

      That's the beauty of kane. as nailed is as nailed does. hardly ever gets subbed off, so the window for point scoring is at it's max (as we saw yesterday).

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I am with you but I am targeting MCI (FUL BUR) and bringing Kane back as I will not captain him for the next few weeks. Other FWD spots already occupied by Vardy and DCL.

    2. caldracula
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I wouldn’t do Kane to Jesus. Kane to Vardy the following week maybe.

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Needs the fund for Bruno

  8. Gandalf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Salah Ziyech Grealish Bruno Soucek

    Kane DCL Wilson/Antonio/Watkins

    For wildcard got an initial plan of the above, leaving funds to sub Bruno for KDB in GW10. Wanted to wait until GW10 to wildcard but injuries forced my hand

    Is this plan reasonable, or would you be trying to fit in both KDB and Bruno?

    1. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I’d be trying to fit them both in on WC.

      Used my WC though and so doing what you plan with Bruno plus funds for next GW.

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Tough to fit in both Bruno KDB unless deploying cheap forwards. Alternatively Bruno Jesus or KDB Martial and am going for the former.

    3. caldracula
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Team looks good as it is, would just wait on KDB and just transfer him in for Salah/Fernandes if you want him that much next GW.

  9. Bennyboy1907
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Who’s the more priority to get in for GW9:

    A) Bruno
    B) Ziyech

    GW10: will be KDB’s turn

    So either Bruno or ziyech will miss out

    1. kime67
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      bruno

    2. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Who are you captaining?

    3. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Bruno.

  10. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Here's a differential.

    Eze. 0.4% owned.

    He's on corners, direct FKs. Next 3 fixtures are bur NEW wba.

    Could it be worth?

    1. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Too many other good midfield options I think

    2. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Is he nailed though?
      Always rated him just think there's too many better options among strikers for that price

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        But he's not a striker. He's a mid.

        I'm pretty locked into a 3-5-2 structure and I'm shopping for a cheap 5th mid to replace Foden.

      2. Ze_Austin
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        He's nailed. He was eased in due to fitness issues (got injured before GW5), but he's nailed

    3. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I like him

      No space in my squad for him, but he's good

    4. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I asked you last time whether you’re interested in and you said no. I am lurking to replace Zaha if I need extra funds for fixtures swing.

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Hmm I think if he was 0.5m cheaper I might get him as an enabler. But 5.8m is still a little steep. It's now or never really. Fixtures aren't gonna be this nice again and he has a bit of form going in.

        1. No Professionals
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          yes my thoughts, at 5.5 i'd go there.

    5. caldracula
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Potential on a WC or if no Zaha.

  11. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Would you rather have Richarlison or Ziyech (Also have DCL)
    I'm not letting owning DCL affect my thinking because almost everyone has him anyway..
    I fancy Everton attack for next 3 but fixtures turn after that.

    1. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Ziyech

  12. GROBARI

    1FT £0.2m itb
    Martinez Steer

    DCL Vardy Bamford
    What should I do here?

  13. All For One
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Wildcard draft GW10

    Mccarthy
    Pva, Zouma. Coufal
    Bruno, Salah, Kdb, Grealish Zaha
    Dcl, Antonio

    Button, Brewster, Taylor, Holding

    Thoughts please?

    Thanks

    1. The Mandalorian
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      PVA to KWP and Lamptey
      Zaha to Soucek or Bowen. Then you have more funds in attack when Antonio gets injured again.

      1. All For One
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Good point thanks!

  14. The Mandalorian
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Brewster is just a kid leading the line for a team that doesn't create many chances. He would have been better suited to Leeds. He is used to scoring goals. He is going to be under huge mental pressure, if he doesn't start scoring.

    1. No Professionals
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      he has no top class pedigree, doesn't work hard, you can literally watch a game and not realise he is playing.

      Bizarre transfer.

      1. thegaffer82
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        He was quite the player for Swansea though. And, Klopp clearly rates him as well because he insisted there was a buy-back clause added to his transfer terms.

        I think he'll do okay once SHU have sorted out their attacking balance and found some form.

        1. No Professionals
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          i don't think he'll ever suit them, work horse strikers seem to suit their style better.

          1. The Mandalorian
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            This transfer could well affect his development, I think he's made a mistake and should have gone to a team that suits his style of play.

  15. The Mighty I
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Martinez Steele
    Chilwell Lamptey Masuaku Kilman Konsa
    Salah Son Rashford Ziyech Bissouma
    Kane DCL Bamford

    Looking at shedding the Spurs assets over the next couple of GW’s, injury news dependant.

    Son > Grealish GW9
    Kane > Vardy and Rashford > City mid GW10

    1. King Kohli

    3 years, 4 months ago

    GW9 already looks tough. I expect Antonio to be back, given vague rumours via Moyes' comments and ClaretandHugh utterances. Not the bus team:

    Martinez (Ryan)
    Justin, Vesty, Cresswell (Lamps, Dunne)
    Souček, Sterling, Salah, Zaha, Bruno (C) - that captaincy is probably locked
    Kane, Antonio (Brewster)

    1FT, 0.3 in the bank.

    Could go Dunne to Kilman, and hope whatever 3 I play at the back don't all ship 4 each... Thoughts? Questions?

    1. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I wouldn’t be looking to bring in Kilman at this time

      Not sure how I feel about triple West Ham either

    2. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Nice team, I would bank the FT....I hope you are right about Antonio, we look a different team with him up front.

  17. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    Good morning, Who to pick from the following for GW9 onwards. They are in my preferred considered order.

    A, Antonio ( assuming he is fit )
    B, Bamford.
    C, Adams
    D, Wilson.
    E,Watkins.
    F, Suggest someone else for 6.5k or less

    1. King Kohli
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      ABE in that order for me

  18. King Kohli
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    How to fix this mess?
    Martinez Steer
    Robbo Chilwell Konsa Kilman Mitchell
    Salah Sterling Son JRod Anguissa
    DCL Bamford Maupay

    1 FT 0.5itb. No WC
    Issues:
    1. Sterling, Robbo, Maupay,Son, JRod.
    2. Can't get in Grealish or Watkins due to triple villa already.

    Appreciate any help

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

      Really want to keep hold of Kane and Son, keep the value, focus on other parts of my team, but...

      City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Palace

      15 goals conceded in their last 3 games combined (15 games)

      Makes for worrying reading

    2. Pacer.
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Reply fail, sorry

  19. No Professionals
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Foden.

    Is he worth hanging on to until City hit those plum fixtures, or is it time to just get rid?

    1. King Kohli
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Not worth wasting a spot imo

    2. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      There is no reason to hold Foden right now. At all. There's no justification left

      Just accept what's happened and get rid

  20. focaccia
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Selling Son this week before I WC gw10. Who would you pick just for this gameweek?

    A) Bruno Vs West Brom
    B) J Rod Vs Fulham

    1. GROBARI
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Bruno for me

      1. focaccia
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Would you wait for injuries or just pull the trigger now?

        1. NestorC
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Would wait if you can afford price rise. Since I had exact number, needed to pull the trigger last night.

        2. GROBARI
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          I would wait one week

  21. 03farmboy
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Who to swap foden for??

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Upgrade to any of the bandwagons. They're all good

      If you can't afford that, switch to a cheap banwagon striker. They're all firing, but Watkins has the best fixtures (I was against him before, but he proved me wrong, like Bamford and Adams did)

      If you must keep it in the midfield, Eze or Jota

      1. 03farmboy
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks for the detailed reply much appreciated. I like the idea of jota but think he will just be rotated like foden is. I already have 3 strikers Kane, Werner and Calvert Lewin don’t know if I should get rid of any of them at moment. So will have to be another midfielder

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

      I think Im doing Son and Foden to Ziyech and Grealish (2ft)

      1. 03farmboy
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I like it a lot I might downgrade son to Grealish

      2. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 7 Years

        I did Foden to Ziyech! hope it works. This season has been so bad.

    Bottomed last page. Thanks to Mikess for the reply. Reposting...

    It just occurred to me that I can get double City defence with KDB by GW10, giving this:

    Mart Steer
    Chilwell Cancelo Dias Vestergaard Coufal
    Salah KDB Bruno Ziyech Grealish
    DCL Bamford Brewster

    The transfers:
    GW9: Kane to DCL for free
    GW10: Son + Kilman to KDB + Dias (-4)

    Coufal and Vest on bench duty most of the time anyway

    Too much on the bench? Too much City?

    Yay or nay?

      Too much on the bench and too much city imo
      Cannot bench any of those midfielders so 352 will lead to plenty of bench points

      1. Ze_Austin
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        From Coufal and Vest? Their fixtures don't really suggest regular bench hauls. Maybe just one per week, which I can take since that one will probably be my first sub, and is useful when tripling on City

        Also... Seen any reason not to like the City defence?

      I like those moves. Nothing wrong with having Vest & Coufal on the bench.

    Who will prove better vfm (PTS per million) in your opinion?
    A)Bruno
    B)Ziyech
    C)Jota

    *If Jota keeps his place he has amazing stats which are very near to Mane's

      Tough to call

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      A

    3. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Ziyech

    Stuck the armband straight on Bruno as I set up my team for next GW but I'm wondering... Safer to stick with Salah as someone who has been slowly repairing the damage of a poor start to the season? I fear a low block from WBA but then again could see them imploding if United nick an early goal...

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Spurs don't have the tools to pierce a low block

      Bruno is Man U's tool to pierce a low block

      Doesn't reduce Salah's appeal, though. He's a good captain for various reasons as well

      Feeling similar below, this has Utd fail written all over it to me - think I am content to own a Utd player for now

    3. focaccia
      • 6 Years

      I'm taking a punt on Bruno.

    4. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Bruno's points are very unpredictable imo. I find it hard capping him but I guess if you own him you gotta cap him this week.

    5. No Professionals

      Salah is always a nice, safe bet. 2 blanks in 8 weeks. has a lot of the benefits that Bruno does, but plays for a much better team.

      saying that, if I had bruno I would captain him this week. Deep block may lead to higher chance of penalties, and more edge of the box shots.

    With this team would you-
    1. WC this GW.
    2. Use the 2 fts this week on relative punts and WC for sure next week.
    3. Just play the long game. Possible -4 and save the WC.

    McCarthy.
    TAA, Chilwell, Mitchell.
    Son, Salah, Barkley, Podence.
    Kane, DCL, Jimenez.
    Button, Ayling, Justin, Bissouma.
    2fts, 1.8m ITB.

    What do we think of Jesus and Rashford?

    Cutting too many corners from KDB/Sterling/Bruno?

    Not entirely convinced I want to captain a Utd player still

  27. thegaffer82
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Obviously, I don't wish harm on any player - even Liverpool ones...

    But, it would really help my moves this week if TAA could be out for a wee while.

    He's starting to look really threatening now and on another day could have got a goal and/or assist in yesterday's game. Gunna be scary watching a Pool game if I've sold him for a hit.

    But, he's gotta go really. 7.4 mil for those returns is pretty pathetic

    1. Phlajo
      • 4 Years

      Gotta go. Liverpool not keeping cleansheets basically makes him a midfielder with same pricetag as Grealish.

  28. Warby84
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Martinez
    Chilwell PVA Lamptey Coufal (Bran)
    Ziyech Salah Sterling Zaha (Biss)
    Wilson Kane (Brewster)

    2.8m itb tempted by Wilson to Jesus although would be for a hit, also no Everton this week.

  29. focaccia

    Who to play in GW9?

    Justin (Liverpool away) or Brewster (West Ham home)?

    1. Dont_Win_Friends_With_Salah…
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Brewster probably

      1. thegaffer82
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Brewster. But you're probably deciding between a 2pter and a 1pter here

  30. Dont_Win_Friends_With_Salah…
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    If TAA is fit for the next match, would you save a FT here?

    Martinez
    TAA James Lamptey
    Bruno Son Ziyech Rodriguez
    Kane DCL Bamford
