Granville was expected to miss this week’s Scoutcast. Flagged as a 25% doubt, we drafted in Andy off the bench in preparation for our resident Mancunian to go AWOL as he wallowed in the misery of his 30-point Gameweek.

To his great credit, he proved us wrong.

Granville crashes in from the off to join Andy, Jonty and myself in another episode that he describes as “cathartic experience”, as he rolls out the full directors cut of his woeful tale from Gameweek 15.

Spouting such gems as “someone has to be unlucky and it has to be me”, Granville adds an essential ingredient to a packed and lively session.

It’s helped along by Jonty’s endorsement of “playing the percentages”, roughly translated as the “Dullard’s methodology 101”, which has the four of us at loggerheads.

Once the dust settles on that debate, we tackle further questions from the community, featuring Jonty’s latest love letter to Aaron Ramsey, before rounding off with our preview of Gameweek 16.

This episode of the Scoutcast was first aired live via our YouTube channel. To view that full broadcast you can click on the player below.

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

    Why did KdB get taken off after 65 mins when they were 2-1 down?

    1. Acquafresca

      Rest him for his hattrick this weekend.

      Looked absolutely knackered. He was complaining that he didn't expect to play so much earlier in the week as well

      Last 7 games
      3 5 3 5 2 16 2 and brought of after 65 mins this week
      Apart from the 16 he hasn't been brilliant
      Only saying.

      1. Defcons are for Kinnear
        • 12 Years

        Good point. It is Swansea though

    Cedric looking to drop and Toby may rise tomorrow.

    Would u do

    A) Cedric + Kun -> Toby + Kane
    B) Cedric -> Toby
    C) Kun -> Kane

    1. Buck The Trent

    If you’re not the one then why are you still in my team today?
    If you’re not the one then why does my team value fit yours this way?
    If you are not mine then why do I cry when you touch the ball?
    We all need to know do you have the strength to stand at all?

    I'll never know what the future brings
    But I know you're here with me now
    We’ll make it through
    And I hope you are the one I share my armband with

    I don’t want to run to Kane but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
    If I’m not made for you then why does rate my team tell me that I am?
    Is there any way that you can stay in my team?

    If I don't need you then why am I crying on my bed?
    If I don’t need you then why am I not benching you for Gestede?
    If you’re not for me then why does your hamstring leave me in a flap?
    If you’re not for me then why do I dream of you as my triple cap?

    I don’t know why you’re so far away
    But I know that this much is true
    We’ll make it through
    And I hope you are the one I share my points with
    And I wish that you could be the one I win with
    And I pray in you’re the one I build my team with
    I hope I have you all season

    I don’t want to run to Kane but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
    If I’m not made for you then why does rate my team tell me that I am
    Is there any way that you can stay in my team?

    ‘Cause I miss you, body and soul so weak that it takes my breath away
    And I breathe you into my heart and pray you have the strength to train today
    ‘Cause I need you, whether it’s wrong or right
    And though your training may well be light
    You know my bench is by your side

    I don’t want to run to Kane but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
    If I’m not made for you then why does rate my team tell me that I am
    Is there any way that you could stay in my team"

        it fits how i feel bout kun though plus took 5 mins to adapt 😛

      Play, Agüero, play across my big green field
      Play, Agüero, play across my big green field
      Whatever angles you have in your mind
      I'll show them to you and you'll see them shine
      Play, Agüero, play across my big green field

      Forget this dance, let's go for goal
      Let's take a chance, who really cares
      Why don't you know, you got nothin' to prove
      It's all in your eyes and the way that you move
      Forget this dance, let's play for the box ...

      Why wait any longer, I don't mean too complain?
      You can have love but you might lose it
      Why run any longer when you're runnin' in vain?
      You can have the truth but you got to choose it

      Play, Agüero, stay with the team awhile ...
      'Til the full time whistle, let me see you make him smile
      I long to see you in the six yard box
      I long to get your bonus too ...
      Play, Agüero, stay with the team awhile ...

    team for gw 16

    DDG
    bellerin dann coleman
    ozil rambo deulofeu kdb mahrez
    kane LUKAKU (C) (vardy)

    in alll respect to chelsea they have been tight in terms of goals conceded in last 6 games.. dont know if to bench vardy or mahrez.. no intention of benching deu vs norwich at all.. what u guys think

    West Brom defenders are beginning to come back into vogue with their appealing Christmas fixture list, so I thought I'd provide an update to Applebonkers's excellent WBA CS analysis.

    The original post: http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2015/11/03/the-digest-gameweek-11-4/?hc_page=2#hc_comment_11746384

    Since then Wba have played, and conceded to:

    GW12...mun...Goals: Lingard*, Mata.......Assists: Martial*
    GW13...ARS....Goals: Giroud....................Assists: Ozil*
    GW14...whu...Goals: Zarate*...................Assists: Sakho
    GW15...TOT....Goals: Alli*........................Assists: Alderweireld*

    *I've asterisked the players that are noted for their pace.

    And so the pattern continues. Next up is a LIV side that we're finding it hard to predict the lineup for. Coutinho and Milner play a passing, possession based game which could play into the hands of Dawson and co. But on the other hand, Clyne & Moreno will get high up the pitch and threaten with their pace. How do we all see this game going?

    1. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Well I wish I had a backup keeper that's for sure 🙂

      1. Reedy
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        Yeah, I have two Brom defenders again now but I'm benching both I think. Just wrestling with whether to play Firmino.

    2. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      This game has 1-0 written all over it.

      1. Reedy
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        Doesn't look great for Pool's attackers or Brom's defenders does it? Moreno and Clyne could be the real winners here.

  7. Gazpilicueta
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 21 days ago

    share your thoughts? what would you prioritise here?

    DDG, Myhill
    Bellerin, Bertrand, Kolarov, Francis, Nyom
    Mahrez, KDB, Ozil, Deolefeu, Wanyama
    Vardy, Kane, Lukaku

    £3.5 in the bank, and 2 free transfers. I'm wondering what to change first.

    A) Sort the defence out, get some Stoke, Tottenham and Man U in there!
    B) Get rid of Deolefeu, the assisters assister for someone like Ramsey
    C) Get rid of Wanyama, bring in Arnautovic or Shaqiri etc etc.
    D) Something else, your suggestions?

    1. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      b,ramsey will get more pts in long run, ars got good fixtures bar the city game
      maybe kolarov to tot def, city concede, and clichy now getting back to fitness, so rotation risk

    2. Jose's Magic Omelette
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      B first C second and play 4-4-2 (Watford look good for a CS this week).

      1. Gazpilicueta
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        and bench which striker? Vardy??!?!!

        1. Jose's Magic Omelette
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 21 days ago

          Fancy Chelsea to keep it tight this week, if you brought in Arnie for Wanyama I'd bench Mahrez and Bertrand and play 3-4-3, will take nerves of steel though.

  8. Ronnies
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    if aguero is out for wkend should i buy kane and captain him

    OR

    tnks guys

    1. Gazpilicueta
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Captain Kane for the win.

    2. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      kane cap, tot got some good fix coming up to

    3. Costa in Wengerland
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      The later

  9. Gazpilicueta
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Watford Defence, I keep benching Nyom, and he keeps beating Kolarov, Bellerin and Bertrand on points......should I play him this week?

    1. Rhinos
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      why not, Sunderland not exactly deadly

      1. Gazpilicueta
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        this is my problem, the why not is, Bellerin, Kolarov and Bertrand

        1. Rhinos
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 21 days ago

          bench bertrand, will have have his work cut out aginst palace wide men

          1. Gazpilicueta
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 21 days ago

            thanks, bench him or get rid?

    2. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      I think WAT will edge a good game, no c/s. 1-2 or 2-3 imho.

    3. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Yes, play him while you can I say. Fixtures are about to turn.

      1. Gazpilicueta
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        ok choose one for the bench then

        Kolarov
        Bertrand
        Bellerin
        Nyom

        1. Reedy
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 21 days ago

          Berty for me.

          1. Gazpilicueta
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 21 days ago

            thanks, bench or get rid?

            1. Reedy
              • 15 Years
              10 years, 21 days ago

              Bench I guess and save - his price isn't budging.

        2. Jose's Magic Omelette
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 21 days ago

          I'd play all 4.

    4. Jose's Magic Omelette
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Play Nyom.

      1. Gazpilicueta
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        thanks omelette. im scared to bench vardy tho

        1. Jose's Magic Omelette
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 21 days ago

          Yeah, it's hard. 3-4-3 with Bertrand on the bench also good. No point doing the Arnie transfer this week unless you would play him ahead of Vardy or Mahrez.

  10. Gizzachance
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 21 days ago

    any advice plz guys, thinking of doing begovic to lloris? but tot have only 1 cs in 6,, 2 in 9
    is it really worth it, i wanted tot def like toby, rose etc as they getting assists & bonuses, so may do kolarov to tot def instead ? thoughs appreciated, cheers

    1. The Dribbler
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      I brought Lloris in last week and plan on using him as my main man. Despite Butland being my other GK, I don't think hecan continue his form and Spurs have a good schedule for the next 8-10 weeks. I think it's a good move.

      1. Gizzachance
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        my thinking to, gomes is 2nd keeper, after this week he has some tough fixtures, cheers

    2. Jose's Magic Omelette
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Don't like Lloris Tottenham play high with him as sweeper so he doesn't make many saves.

      1. Gizzachance
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        yeah, thats why my other thought was def, toby rose etc, chance of assisis goals bonus points
        cheers

  11. Duck Dickworth

    Team value: 108.1 and 0 in the bank.
    Sounds good or?

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      I guess there's a reason you are boasting about value and not points 😉

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      It's good.

      1. Duck Dickworth
        • 10 Years

        looks good. 😉

    3. Diva
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Not bad. 99.3m here and 8.9 ITB.

    4. Jose's Magic Omelette
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Can't find anything to spend all my millions on so if you have 0 in the bank does that mean you've spent all that extra money on premium priced players that score worse than Mahrez, Özil, Vardy, Ighalo, Lukaku et al?

        Thanks. I dont trust fplstats any more after what happened with Moreno.

    2. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years

      Looks like just Bolasie.

    Would you prefer a city or arse double up for the christmas period? Trying to decide between Rambo and Silva when I already have kdb/ozil

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights

      Silva will get rested more.

    3. Chelsea Dagger

    Save transfer?
    Team de gea henesey
    Belerin toby ake wolscheid moreno
    Ozil kdb mahrez barkley firmino

    1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Firmino out, imo.

    2. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      save

  15. John Obi Wan Mikel
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Best defender to get as a way into the spurs defence? Rose or Walker?

    1. John Obi Wan Mikel
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      I don't enough to get alerwiereld

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        I prefer Rose.

        1. John Obi Wan Mikel
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 21 days ago

          Why so? more attacking?

          1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            10 years, 21 days ago

            Yes. Plus chance of bonus.

    2. The Dribbler
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      I'd say Rose but lots of people saying he is a rotation risk...

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        There is a small risk but not enough to stop people buying him if they want him

    3. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      rose for assists, though tot havent kept many clean sheets of late, 1 out of 6

    4. Bobbydhino - ⚒ Saint Slav…
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Rose

  16. Hibbo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 21 days ago

    I'm considering getting Myhill back in for DDG next week as one of two frees.

    Looking to free up a bit of cash for a player who delivered better ppg when the fixtures were good.

    DDG makes zilch in terms of saves or bonus when theres a clean sheet.

    1. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Sounds good to me, especially in light of Utd's catalogue of injuries at the back. Doesn't sound like Foster is making an imminent return either.

      1. Hibbo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        Seems a no brainer to me!?

        1. Reedy
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 21 days ago

          Pretty much 🙂

          1. Hibbo
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 21 days ago

            Give me higher ppg for less spend.

    2. Moss
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Yep, considering the same move myself to double up with Dawson soon. It all depends on when Foster is due to return.

      1. Hibbo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        Seems very uncertain going by recent reports.

    3. Netley Lucas

      Looks a good move, keep an eye on Ben Foster though.

      Going to do the same move myself. Or Butland with Dawson instead. Had enough of DDG. Smalling or nothing.

      1. Hibbo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        Aye man I hate the site of DDG in my team.

        Real anti climax stuff.

        Give me premium midfield returns for a gk.

        1. Davido989
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 21 days ago

          See my post below. DDG not worth it compared to Butland.

            10 years, 21 days ago

            Good post lad.

            Agree totally.

            I want to be ready in case I need to jump onto Aguero.

            Any drop off in Vardy's numbers and I'll play the differential game with a top diff.

    5. Gazpilicueta
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      If you had DDG and Myhill, would you still get rid of DDG?

      1. Hibbo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        I'd probably bin DDG for Hennessey.

        1. Gazpilicueta
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 21 days ago

          I was thinking the same......no super pressing matters in my team, and 2 FT, so maybe this week. to set up for Xmas

          1. Hibbo
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 21 days ago

            Bit of cash itb for you its solid IMO.

            1. Gazpilicueta
              • 11 Years
              10 years, 21 days ago

              although out of those 3 keepers, DDG has the best fixture this week, I wouldnt want Myhill against Pool, or Palace really this weekend, so many do it next week?

              1. Hibbo
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 13 Years
                10 years, 21 days ago

                Wouldn't do it this week bud.

                Maybe a bit of house keeping elsewhere?

                What's your team BTW?

                1. Gazpilicueta
                  • 11 Years
                  10 years, 21 days ago

                  DDG Myhill
                  Bertrand, Bellerin, Kolarov, Francis, Nyom
                  Mahrez, KDB, Ozil, Deolefeu, Wanyama
                  Vardy, Kane, Lukaku

                  I was gonna get rid of deu, but i still fancy him, he is so good, but FPL unlucky. then i was thinking of wanyama to someone better, but i hate benching headaches, and then theres bertrand who i could get rid of, or Francis, but again, benching headaches.....

                    Have you cash?

                    Bertrand > Alderweireld?

                      • 11 Years
                      10 years, 21 days ago

                      I have 3.5 mil, but if I did that transfer, who would i bench? I only want to play 3 at the back

                      1. Jose's Magic Omelette
                        • 12 Years
                        10 years, 21 days ago

                        Keep your second FT and I would play Myhill this week, Liverpool were atrocious against Newcastle and United won't keep a clean sheet with their junior defence.

                      2. Gazpilicueta
                        • 11 Years
                        10 years, 21 days ago

                        hmm...interesting, Omelette u really are a renegade!

                        10 years, 21 days ago

                        I wouldn't be wasting an ft though is that the suggested option?

                        • 12 Years
                        10 years, 21 days ago

                        To be honest I don't think either is a fantastic keeper to have this week. I have Gomes for his last great fixture for a while.

                        Kolarov Toby & Bellerin?

                        Moreno an option for you too I suppose.

                        Could beef up a cheapie and keep Bert's?

                        Decisions lad.

      Bit risky with Foster due back soon. Just get Butland for CS, saves and BAPS.

      1. Hibbo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        His recovery has dropped off the face of the earth.

        Confirms the thought that Lindegard was signed as back up in case foster was a beaten docket.

    1. Costa in Wengerland

      You should have atleast 14 regular players for Festive period , so Targett to Toby maybe

      1. Hibbo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        I'd like Stanislas for WW.

        And yeah take your point though I'm kinda focussed on a move into Aguero if needs be.

  19. Gazpilicueta
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Who to Bench

    A) Bertrand

    B) Vardy

      1. Gazpilicueta
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        this is what this site is bringing me too Torres.....I feel like i might be accidentally drunk......but i havent drunk anything!

          Take a break. If you think Bertrand can keep a CS or get attacking points then B if you don't rate Vardy this week.

    2. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      A, I fancy Palace to score

    3. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Vardy 100%...

    4. che

      You taking the p1ss?

    5. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      You really have to start Vardy against that defence, BOU should have had 3 with better finishing.

      1. Jose's Magic Omelette
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        I would post tables here but you don't have a membership.

        5 clean sheets in last 6 games, 1 (offside) goal conceded ought to suffice.

    6. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      palace to score and vardy to blank, take your pick ! ha

    7. Stimps
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      C) Kane

  20. Long Juan Silva
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 21 days ago

    "Racing extinction" is a great doc. Worth a watch if anyone is interested/bored.

  21. Helpmenowbruh

    firmino to deli ali?

    1. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      What a difference 2 weeks makes eh... funnily enough it looks a good move lol

    2. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Firmino could still be a great pick. It's tough to call though, I'll give you that. I'm actually having thoughts of playing Stanislas over him...as much to do with Utd's defence as anything (and Bournemouth's attcking form).

      1. FortunesAlwaysHiding
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        I'm the same. I don't know if Firmino and/or Benteke are any good or not for Liverpool.

        1. Reedy
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 21 days ago

          I moved for him too soon really...should have taken a watching brief and now I don't know what to do with him!

      2. Helpmenowbruh

        1. Reedy
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 21 days ago

          One of them needs to become Mahrez fast, IMO. I'd bring him in over Alli

  22. A.
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Ayew out looks like my transfer this week:

    Own Ozil, no City attackers after a failed Aguero move.

    A) Silva
    B) KDB
    C) Ramsey

    KDB throws out some of my Ighalo upgrade plans

    1. The Dribbler
      • 10 Years

      What is your current front 8?

    2. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years

      KDB is on nearly 10pts per 90 mins in homes.

        2. Netley Lucas
          • 10 Years

          46 benched and 36 scored? That guy must feel like going postal? ffs

      Cheaper keeper wins the day really lad.

      1. Davido989
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        I think I'll be doing DDG to Butland this week.. no other pressing issues.

    2. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      The 4.5 kids are lolling eh? lol

      1. Davido989
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        Living the life. I've had a mare with GK's: Ruddy, McCarthy, Begovic, DDG

        1. Netley Lucas
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 21 days ago

          And you just know Butters is going to save a pen or 2... Noble on pens? lol

    3. Puyol Pants Up
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      I did Butland ----> DDG a month or so ago and Butland has outscored DDG since then 🙁

      I still feel confident that DDG will eventually get more points the Butland. But the 1.0 lost is frustrating.

      1. Hibbo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        Will he though?

        I'm not convinced.

  24. Puyol Pants Up
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Worth doing Francis ----> Moreno this week or save FT? Would play Moreno (WBA) over Nyom (sun) but I might need the 2 FT's to upgrade Ighalo next week when fixture turn horribly.

    1. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Tough call. Nyom is very playable but Moreno has a bigger upside. Not necessarily any reason to lose Ighalo in a hurry given his form, though his returns to date do look a little fixture-dependent. If your other front 7 are good I'd probably go for it.

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        Fair enough. I probably will go ahead with the Moreno move 🙂

  25. Hibbo

    When did Justin Beiber become actually decent?

    1. fancy111

      Never!! At least I try to convince myself if that...

    2. Puyol Pants Up
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Recently.

    3. Captain Peacock
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      When he stopped taking himself so seriously and showed some humility. Which goes to show that every single one of us is capable of growth and change.

      1. Hibbo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        This is brilliant response.

  26. fancy111
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Can I hav a voice of reason?

    Keep telling myself to bench Barkley and play Ritchie... Bad move right?

    1. Jeremiah
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Absolutely.

    2. Scratch
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Could work out, Norwich aren't quite so terrible at home.

    3. Jay_
        10 years, 21 days ago

        Don't do it, ownership will kill you, the recipe isn't quite there for the gamble to work

        1. fancy111
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 21 days ago

          Both of the challengers in my mini league have Barks so in that sense you are correct and it could backfire badly

      • Netley Lucas
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        No it's not a bad move, Utd will have some youth at the back and Cherries are actually firing atm. Tempted to bench someone and start Stanislas but I've no Lukaku so will maybe not bench Bark.

      • Reiko
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 21 days ago

        Can play Ritchie if u hv Lukaku in ur team, otherwise not imo

        1. fancy111
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 21 days ago

          I do have Lukaku and feel Duelo is
          Going to have the better game out of the mids... Thanks guys, still got some thinking
          To do though
