  19. EWH2020
    • 12 Years

    Of course I bench Thiaw the week he decides to get 20 defcon when he hasn't hit 10 defcon in 6 weeks

    1. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 months, 21 days ago

  20. Kaneyonero

  26. tucaoneo

    If you don't have C on Haaland do you want that penalty to go in or not?

      3 months, 21 days ago

      No

    2. SUPERMAN

      3 months, 21 days ago

      Not

    3. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 months, 21 days ago

      Depends on rank, either way I say yes because he’s only just outscored Saka

  27. jacob1989
    • 4 Years
    3 months, 21 days ago
