      Having missed a week of competitive matches, I think Antonio might be a little less likely to haul as a result. Ronaldo probably the better pick. Personally for me it was a harder choice between Ron and Salah, and I didn't consider Antonio much.

        I was 50/50 Ron and Antonio, so i let EO decide. I'll be surprised if West Ham don't tear Leeds apart. Leeds are bleeding and nursing their wounds.

        Antonio is the shark.
