Fixtures

Frisking the Fixtures – Gameweek 25 – The Weak

Having assessed the sides with favourable schedules to follow, our two-part check-in with the fixture list turns to those facing testing periods, both in the short-term, and over a longer span of Gameweeks.

European football has a significant influence on our selection, as the resources of the top clubs are stretched, forcing Fantasy managers to revisit the perils of rotation.

The Short Term

Tottenham Hotspur (MUN liv ARS)
There’s no question that Spurs’ next three matches mark their toughest spell of the season, arriving just as the Champions League edges back into the frame as a distraction.

It’s an unwanted interlude for Fantasy managers, with many of us still stocked with Spurs assets following double Gameweek 22.

The debate surrounding the merits of holding Harry Kane for this period rages on. As we’ve already seen this season, measuring the striker’s potential output based on the difficulty of the opponent is a dangerous exercise.

He scored in the corresponding fixtures with United and Arsenal last season and punished Liverpool with a brace earlier this campaign. Despite the obvious appeal of Sergio Aguero as a replacement, many Kane owners will be content to hold.

But the likes of Son Heung-min, Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli seem unwanted luxuries over this three-match spell. However, Son’s owners can perhaps take comfort from his lower price tag and an incredible run of seven goals from his last eight home league outings.

Defenders – with Jan Vertonghen and Ben Davies the top owned options – also appear surplus to requirements at this time, even though Man United’s goal threat could be curtailed by Jose Mourinho’s away-day tactics against top-four rivals.

But from Gameweek 28 onwards, the situation flips, with Mauricio Pochettino’s side again open for investment.

Spurs will encounter just two “top six” sides over their remaining 11 outings – away at Chelsea in Gameweek 32 and at home to Man City in Gameweek 34.

Indeed, the four-match run prior to the meeting with the Blues (cry HUD bou NEW) may be compelling enough to convince many to not only weather the storm with Kane, but also hold their midfielders.

Having said that, news that the club have agreed a fee with Paris St-Germain for Brazilian winger Lucas Moura clearly adds to rotation concerns.

Those will be intensified around their Champions League date with Juventus, though the first leg in Turin follows the North London derby and precedes a potential FA Cup fifth round tie at Millwall or Rochdale.

The fixtures with Huddersfield and Bournemouth, surrounding the second leg, are clearly far more vulnerable to rotation.

West Brom (mci SOT che)
Alan Pardew is making good progress at The Hawthorns, with Saturday’s 3-2 win at Anfield in the FA Cup a marker.

There’s already enough promise to tempt Fantasy managers back to consider the fare on offer, particularly with Daniel Sturridge arriving on loan until the end of the season.

But any possible investment in Sturridge, or indeed the in-form Jay Rodriguez, will be put on ice for now.

The Baggies make the trip to the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday and are expected to put up little resistance to Man City and Aguero, particularly with Saturday’s tie inflicting a number of notable injuries on Pardew’s squad, including Jonny Evans and Kieran Gibbs in defence.

A home fixture with Southampton provides the next audition for Rodriguez and perhaps Pardew’s backline, before Fantasy managers take on a watching brief for a Gameweek 27 trip to Stamford Bridge.

But then, much like Spurs, West Brom’s schedule twists to offer a sustained run of favourable match-ups. Their six fixtures up to Gameweek 33 (HUD wat LEI bou BUR SWA) appear to be clear window for investment, before things stiffen for the season run-in.

The Long Term

Manchester United (tot HUD new CHE cry LIV whu)
The arrival of Alexis Sanchez urges the re-assessment of Jose Mourinho’s attack, though the fixtures over the next seven Gameweeks suggests we should show a degree of caution.

United will go into this period having to deal with a two-legged Champions League fixture with Sevilla smack before Mourinho’s emotional grudge match with Antonio Conte at Old Trafford. But with a fifth round tie with either Birmingham or Huddersfield prior to that, rotation should not be a worry around the first leg.

However, bitter rivals Liverpool are then next at Old Trafford, surrounded by London trips to Crystal Palace and West Ham. The second leg with Sevilla falls prior to the Hammers clash, making that fixture the most likely hotspot for rotation.

Overall, the Red Devils’ defence looks likely to be tested over this period, with the Gameweek 26 and 27 ties with Huddersfield and Newcastle looking crucial for returns.

Manchester City (WBA bur LEI ars CHE stk)
Noisy neighbours City are also set for a rigorous test of their resources and resilience.

On paper, the next six Gameweeks appears fairly obliging, though with a Champions League tie with FC Basel to accommodate, plus a Wembley date with Arsenal in the Carabao Cup, it’s clear that Pep Guardiola’s squad management may go into overdrive.

The vulnerable period looks to be between Gameweeks 27-29, with City facing home ties with Leicester and Chelsea, sandwiching a trip to the Emirates Stadium.

The Leicester clash arrives three days before the first leg with Basel and is clearly a candidate for rotation. An FA Cup fifth round tie with Wigan then follows, with City facing Arsenal at Wembley the Sunday after.

But they then face the Gunners in Gameweek 28 four days later, giving them just three days before they then travel to Stamford Bridge. Then it’s Basel in the second leg – again just three days later. That intense period could then lead to rest and rotation for the “plum” Gameweek 30 trip to Stoke.

Judging Guardiola’s teamsheet and the points output of City’s key assets over this spell looks treacherous, to say the least.

Losing Leroy Sane to injury may limit the ability to shuffle in attack, and when Gabriel Jesus does eventually make a return from injury, he could be used to flank rather than replace Aguero. Even so, there will be anxiety around this time unless City can establish a convincing lead in the first leg of their European tie.

Defensive rotation could be even be more of an issue, particularly if Vincent Kompany remains fit and imminent signing Aymeric Laporte settles quickly.

Crystal Palace (NEW eve TOT MUN che hud LIV)
At present, Julian Speroni remains the top owned asset in the Eagles ranks which says a lot about their reliability as a source of Fantasy talent to this point.

Little will change based on their long-term schedule.

Roy Hodgson has already performed mini miracles at Selhurst Park, but few will backing either his attack or defence during this forthcoming spell, with four of last season’s top six looming in their next seven Gameweeks.

The trend is then reversed from Gameweek 33, with Hodgson treated to a winnable six-match run-in that will likely quell all relegation fears and have us reconsider the likes of Wilfried Zaha and Mamadou Sakho.

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

      Sane to KDB?

      1. Kun Tozser
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        He’s pretty pricey, may just wait and do Sane to Pogba next week

    3. Batchain

    Kane - Firmino - Wilson

    SON + LINGARD
    should i switch em to KDB + Choupo Moting for -4?

    A) Yay
    B) Nay

    1. Kun Tozser

      Not sure KDB is worth the cash

    2. Joggers Nipple

      No, unsure if id do it for free

    3. Yozzer
      • 6 Years

      No way. -4 for a backwards move. Keep son. People dropping him which makes him a rank climbing explosive on form differential.

  4. Jinswick

    Best move here? Dunk/Wilson to the bench if shifting Masuaku.

    A) Save FT
    B) Masuaku -> Gomez
    C) Masuaku -> Yoshida
    D) Masuaku -> Mee

    Pickford
    Alonso, Ogbonna, Dunk

      save

    2. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      C or D. Might as well do it now

      1. Jinswick
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers. Not a fan of Gomez? LIV’s fixtures are decent, he’s fairly attacking and with no FA cup he definitely plays in 31.

        1. Joggers Nipple
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          I have Gomez and hes frustrating. Mee has fixtures turning soon, i think

          1. Jinswick
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            True, although you’d think VVD will shore them up a bit at the back. Also strong defensively at home and they have a few decent ones coming up. I guess all 3 are decent options!

            1. Joggers Nipple
              • 14 Years
              6 years, 1 month ago

              Maybe, even VVD cant make Matip, Moreno and which ever dyspraxic they put in goal any better imo. And I own Gomez!

          2. Joggers Nipple
            • 14 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Lpool 1 cleanie in last 6. And he was dropped for it!

  5. Man Chest Hair United

    Thoughts on this wildcard

    Pickford Coleman
    Alonso Jones Christensen Chilwell Dummett
    Salah Sterling B. Silva Shaqiri Hazard
    Aguero Vardy Quaner

    I have enough in the bank to upgrade Hazard to Sanchez next week and kun to Kane in 3 weeks

    1. Yozzer
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Looks good. I don't like hazard personally 10.5 walking talking guarenteed frustration right there but I know a lot on here worship him for whatever reason. Just go martial , he's better value than haz pogba or sanchez

    2. Batchain
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Looks good - Hazard is not my favourite, but he has good 3 fixtures, so your plan looks sound.

  6. Yogi_mike
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Which is better? Both need to be addressed so no save FT

    A) Masuaku > Yoshida in back 5
    B) Arnie > Ox/Bsilva Mid 5
    Rest team
    Pope
    Chirstensen Gomez Otamendi Alonso
    Salah Son KDB Lingard
    Kane

    Elliot Murray Quaner

  7. Moolaah
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Hazard or Mahrez? Why? I'm currently can't decide.

    Thanks.

    1. Yozzer
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Mahrez is easily better option than hazard. Without even taking into account the 2 mil saving

      1. UpAndAway
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Mahrez easily. More consistent and a lot cheaper.

  8. Joggers Nipple
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    New audience, seeking more help..
    0.1 short of son to Mahrez!
    Any use of my 1ft here?

    Adrain
    Christensen Alonso Kenny jones
    Salah lingard sterling son
    Kane aguero
    Woodman Gomez quarner ibe 0.5 itb 1 ft

    Gomez, lingard, kenny, adrian, christ all bothering/ boring me! Thanks for any thoughts

    1. Mishon
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe do Christensen to Maguire and Son to Mahrez for a hit? Otherwise, I'd get rid of either Christensen or Kenny as a FT.

    2. Netley Lucas
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I'd start Gomez over Kenny, think he's better for attacking & c/s

    3. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Thanks both. Kenny to the cheapest def this week and Mahrez to Son may work. Will think on, thnaks

    4. athreya
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Kenny and Gomez should be priorities to move out. Keep lingard till the Hud/New marches then shift out. And Christ can be moved out in GW28.

      1. athreya
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        PS: I am a Gomez owner and he is the pits.

      2. athreya
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Alternatively Lingard to one of the Stoke boys this week and Son to Martial next week. And leave the defenders/goalie issues till wildcard.

      3. Joggers Nipple
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks, agree too

    5. Stoic
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Kenny + Son to Mahrez + Simpson for -4.

      1. Joggers Nipple
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Ooo nice, will look at that

    6. Jinswick
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Start Gomez over Kenny and save FT

      1. Joggers Nipple
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        This where i am right now, next week Kenny right down and Son to Mahrez perhaps. Thanks

  9. HurriKane
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Really surprised to see that 70k people got rid of Sterling despite him getting 5 goals and 4 assists in last 7 pl starts

    For whom ? Whats the logic behind it? Cant think of a single valid reason to sell him. Fixtures for next 3 are good too (WBA bur LEI)

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Captainable too, very silly. Stats are on the way down tho

      1. HurriKane
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        yh maybe stats could be a reason. but usually playing in city attack who scored a staggering 70 goals he should get plenty of chances

        (btw liverpool is next with 54 goals. big margin)

    2. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Very strange

    3. Yozzer
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      No logic at all. Your bound to get things like this with so many people on a forum though. One person has a daft idea then a few follow. He's the 2nd best mid to have after salah.

      1. HurriKane
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        yh people expectations are sometimes too high.

        as good as sterling has been fpl wise this season you cant expect double digit scores from him every game

        1. Joggers Nipple
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Hes still such value. Im no pure template player but
          Salah
          Sterling
          Alonso
          Kane

          are going to have to be banned or proper injured for me to shift

          1. HurriKane
            • 11 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            i would have just maybe considered a short term swap if city had the fixtures spurs has in next 3.

            some could be selling sterling to fund move for aguero who got a hatty last gw. knee jerky 😉

            1. Joggers Nipple
              • 14 Years
              6 years, 1 month ago

              Luckily had both Kane and Aguero last week. Unsure if I would do the Kane switch this week if i didnt.
              Its going to be easy to be smug for some on here in hindsight!

              1. HurriKane
                • 11 Years
                6 years, 1 month ago

                nice situation to be in. could have got kun after liv-city match couple of gws back opted for firmino

                felel like firmino + mahrez will outscore a kun shaqiri combo long term

                1. HurriKane
                  • 11 Years
                  6 years, 1 month ago

                  but then again if not for the Arnie injury i would have probably swapped kane for kun. 😀

            2. Eze Really?
              • 9 Years
              6 years, 1 month ago

              8 point cost for the priviledge.

          2. Eze Really?
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            I have the lot.
            Kun the only player I think could disrupt but won't get the gametime harry will in the long run.

    4. Batchain
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      You're right it's crazy dropping Sterling, but he had the temerity to get 2 points finally. Outski. Despite the fact that he had a goal disallowed that was cms offside if that. And that Darlow pulled off the save of the game to deny him later.

  10. Kun Tozser
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Burnley, Bournemouth or Brighton striker to replace DCL?

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Wilson

    2. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Wilson. He has very good stats when fit. 17 goals and 3 assists in 35 pl starts

      And bournemouth are the most attacking from those 3 teams.

  11. Chimeee
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Yay or Nay?

    Rich/ Lingard -> Hazard (-4)

    And start which two out of:
    1) Jones
    2) Ogbonna
    3) Mee

    1. Urchin

    Courtois
    Otamendi - Kenny - Bauer - Ogbonna

    The demise of Morgan Schneiderlin.
    What happens to French players?
    Debuchy, Cabaye, Sissoko, Schneiders, Ben Artur and many others just seem to light up and then die.
    Why is this?

    1. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Damn, forgot about Cabaye

    2. PL Ball

      I raise you Doucoure, Kante, Lloris, Martial and Pogba

      1. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Not saying no good French players. But all I mentioned had so much pronise.

        1. Get up ya bum
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Same applies to literally every country.
          The only one in the list that really had an unexpected demise is schneiderlin and even that is probably due to not fitting in at new club

          1. Eze Really?
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            United and Everton. All never realized their promise. Funny enough 3 from Newcastle.

    3. Scratch
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Sissoko was never much good
      Dunno why you include Cabaye, still a quality player just aged
      Schneiderlin looked good at Soton but ask Liverpool fans about those.
      Debuchy was unlucky, had a series of bad injuries and by the time he came back Bellerin had come up.
      Ben Arter was always a patchy player

    4. Batchain
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I think you're right that players from some countries excel while others struggle. Most Belgian players have done well. Middle Eastern players seem to do well too (Mahrez, Salah). Italian and Spanish players not so much.

          okay. i think sanchez will do alright but so will kdb. so sideways that move is.

          firmino to sturridge is a big downgrade. maybe consider wilson. he could do well.

            • 11 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            i would do that move with wilson over sturridge only if you will captain sanchez in those 2gws

            1. Eze Really?
              • 9 Years

              I have Wilson already.

          2. Eze Really?
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            As I said a thought to move away from template. In all honesty I will wait a little for Studge, but I am thinking of Sanchez as a future captain.

    Team good to go folks? Anything worth a hit?

  19. steven8991

    Kane to Kun (have Sterling and KDB) for free.

    do it?

    1. Foozeball
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      No. Sterling and KDB should be enough City cover

    2. athreya
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Don’t.

  20. Foozeball
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Why are people so high on Shaqiri? Did Stoke look genuinely rejuvenated against Hudds, or were they simply made to look good by an opponent in woeful form?

    1. athreya
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Bit of a groupthink imo. But at that price point might be worth a punt. Given that lingard, Rich are bust and the West Ham boys are out injured.

    2. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      It is odd. Without the Arnie injury doubt we would really be talking about them.
      That said, if you dont have the cash for Arnie up to a Mahrez level player not much else around.
      Id rather go right down with Arnie and up the defense to get a solid 4-4-2

      1. Foozeball
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I have Sane to get rid of and already have Mahrez, so not a whole lot of other solid options at his price point or lower

        D.Silva playing is no longer guaranteed due to his personal matters and Son has a rough set of fixtures. Pogba might be good if riding out the Spurs fixture and carrying Lingard too is worth it :/

    3. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      - New manager usually gives new energy to players
      - Great fixtures in next 5 (WAT bou BHA lei sot)
      - Cheap. you dont have to bring wholesale changes to fit him like some premium mids
      - Streaky player. (got 4 goals and 5 assists in 11pl match spell in this season)
      - Im predicting an Arnie like resurgence from Big Shaq (early jumpers could reap rewards)
      - And enjoying a punt. most have 5-6 template attackers. wont be the end of the word if it doesnt work out

    4. Scratch
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      It's a move that made a lot more sense about 10 days ago, given that Stoke were guaranteed for 28 and 31. Now 28 looks intact and the way the cup draw went it seems very hard to not play FH in 31 as opposed to 35

    5. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 7 Years

      I am holding Arnautovic as I don't like any of the players in that bracket. I might downgrade him next week and upgrade Son

  21. jose1

    GTG?

    Adrian

    Otamendi Mee Alonso

    Sterling Salah Lingard Shaq Mahrez

    Aguero (c) Firmino

    B: Elliot, Ogbonna, Kenny, DCL

    ITB 2.2

    1. Urchin
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Nice team, GTG I would say. May need to fix he bench eventually though

  22. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Yoshida certain to start this week? Great fixture but concerned he won’t walk straight back in

    1. Urchin
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Tough to say really but he has been captain a few times recently, may get the nod ahead of Stephens.

      1. Jinswick
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Mmmm. Probably too risky to bring in though eh?

        1. Urchin
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah.

    Dilemma of how to spend 2FTs
    Speroni Pickford
    Jones Chilwell Christenssen Gomez Mee
    Salah Sterling Choupo Atsu Lanzini
    Kun Kane Firmino

    Currently thinking Lnzini & Christenssen -> Ward-Rpowse & Alonso.
    It makes my midfield absolute shambles, but worth it?
    Any other moves?

    1. That Fantasy Guy
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      How much would you have to spend on a mid going the Alonso way?

      1. Urchin
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        5.4, and obviously 5.7 if Azpi

        1. That Fantasy Guy
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          What about choupa moting/ ibe?

          1. That Fantasy Guy
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Sorry didn't see you had choupo already

  24. That Fantasy Guy
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    A. Mahrez , Shaqiri, Sanchez + Jones

    Morning DZ. Play one this GW:

    A) Jones (tot)
    B) Robertson (hud)

    B is a Pool defender but HUD are sooo bad.

    1. Urchin
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      B, assuming Moreno is not a threat?

      1. Over Midwicket
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Worried about a Robbo cameo.

        1. Urchin
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          That may still be a loss of just one point, as cant see United keeping a cleanie at spurs

    2. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      B

  26. sozopol

    I know I know stoke sux, but next few fixtures are Watford, Bournemouth, Brighton, and as an enabler, so I can get salah back, I am deciding between either

    A choupo moting
    B Joe allen

    Help? Leaning towards choupo at the moment

    1. HurriKane
      • 11 Years

      A. prefer shaq over both if you could afford

      1. sozopol
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Nope can't.

    2. Urchin
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

    3. sozopol

      1. Urchin
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Nope

  27. Viper
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Which two would you bench?

    Wilson, Gross, Lingard, Jones,

    1. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Wilson

      1. HurriKane
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        and gross

    2. Urchin

      W & J

    3. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      W + G

  28. FPL ElasticO
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Are these players worth transfer in for -4 ?? Need some advice guys...

    Firmino/ Son/ Arnie >>>

    Kun/ Mikhy/ Shaqiri

    1. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      not for me.

      rather prefer son arnie --> premium mid and shaq for 2ft

    2. Urchin
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      no

      1. Urchin
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Why lose Firmino before a game against Hudders
        Son is at home, great form.
        Just lose Arnie for Shaq and bank the FT i feel.

    3. Boom Xhaka-Laca
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      No

    4. sozopol
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      No. No need for a hit, just sort arnie.

  29. LǝgleSs e|even
    • 8 Years

    Surprised Salah and Hazard arent in ScoutPicks' team for GW 25?

    1. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Not enough $$$

    2. Urchin
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Where did you see the picks?

  30. Boom Xhaka-Laca
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Arnie to Chupo? Would allow me to do Kenny and Ogbonna to Jones and Maguire

    1. Urchin
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Yes

    2. Get up ya bum
      • 14 Years
