FFS Cup

The latest FFS Cup fixtures and results

Our contingent of former winners in the latest FFS Cup has already been more than halved by the first round results.

Joe, MCH, Gribude and A Manager Has No Name were all elminated at the first stage following Gameweek 28’s qualifiers.

In what proved a nightmare Gameweek 29 for most, only three of the ex-champions progressed to round three.

Joe was knocked out by Force Majeure by a 40-34 scoreline and MCH fell to True Deadzoner 41-33.

Gribude’s score of 44 was not enough to get past Mas7our‘s 56 while A Manager Has No Name was unfortunate to fall foul of one Gameweek 29’s 60+ scores.

He was taken out by Dodgy Keeper whose captaining of Gonzalo Higuain (£9.6m) earned him a score of 60 points.

Things went a little better for 2EyedTurk, who edged past Hasselbaink Forever by a score of 48-44.

Wild Rover‘s 50 points saw him eliminate Boris Bodega, who managed just 40.

donnellyc was fortunate enough to catch an opponent with one of the worst Gameweek scores in the first round. Bragazeti‘s 26 points ensured 31 was sufficient for the victory.

      B as Vardy is flagged and Arnautovic is a injury waiting to happen.

        Vardy was only brought off as a precaution on Sunday. Rodgers says he's fine

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          And you believe Rodgers to be trustworthy??

      B

      1. Calderano FC

        The best fans in the world trusted him

        1. how now brown cow
          • 9 Years

          Reading?

            They've don't go to away grounds and spew religious bile. Try again.

                Slightly harsh on Swansea fans but anyways the how.

    3. Shineonme
      • 7 Years

      Vary is fine. He'll start the weekend imo

  2. FPL Maldini
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 25 days ago

    Should I do Rashford to King now?

    Not sure I want a price loss

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Not sure I'd want to lose Rash ahead of Arsenal, if I kept him this long.

      It is Huddersfield but BOU aren't great on the road.

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Hudd reasonable solid at home. King only attacking away returns this season vs Watford albeit 2 goals. United vs Arsenal is a decent fixture for United attacking assets imo

    3. YEAH PITCH!
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Do it.

  3. Surfeit of Lampteys

    Hudson Odoi to Brooks for free or you like something else?

  5. Snevitz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 25 days ago

    I've just been running some comparisons on various strikers over the last 6 gameweeks.
    Suddenly I'm not so sure about Higuain over King for my last striker spot.

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      He's scored against Huddersfield at home and Fulham away. Me neither

      1. how now brown cow
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        I'd be more worried if he hadn't!

    2. AB.
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      I’m also weighing these two up - as well as Vardy. So difficult to know which way to jump.

      1. Snevitz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        I already have Vardy, it's rare that there are so many options.
        If there was actually a decent midfied around the £8.5m mark I would definitely go for King but i can't see anyone better than Fraser so it's King and Fraser/Maddison vs Higuain and Brooks.

    3. Flaming Flamingo
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Bear in mind, Higuain has only played 5 games though. Two of which were against Spurs and City.

      1. Kiwivillan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        He seems like a flat track bully. Everton away not overly appealing

        1. Snevitz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 25 days ago

          Conflicting stats....
          Everton last six games shots conceded: the same as Liverpool
          Everton last six home games shots conceded: 2nd worst behind Fulham

      2. Snevitz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        This is a good point, he probably should have had more against Fulham as well.
        I like the evening fixture against West Ham, I've never properly analysed it but I seem to do very well out of Monday night games.

  6. bitars
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 25 days ago

    Best midfield option with a budget of 6,2. I only gonna use this player for the GW 30, 31 and 33 because of FH 32 and wildcard 34. Right know i am on either Fraser or Brooks but i am open for other suggestions.

    A. Brooks

    B. Fraser

    C. ?

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      C Almiron?

      1. Kiwivillan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        Might not play 33 and hasn't lived up to hype

        1. waldo666
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 25 days ago

          Fair point Kiwi, really isn't much else around that price point.

          1. bitars
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 25 days ago

            Yeah and i also already have Newcastle cover with Rondon.
            So Brooks or Fraser it is then?

            1. waldo666
              • 13 Years
              5 years, 25 days ago

              I reckon so.

    2. Ruth_NZ
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Milner worth considering.

  7. waldo666
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 25 days ago

    Currently have Shaw sat on the bench, correct call with these options?

    TAA, Pereira, AWB, Shaw

    1. bitars
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Probably, don't trust Leicesters clean cheat tho even if they meet Fulham.

      1. waldo666
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        That's the thing isn't it, Periera done absolutely nothing for me since I brought him in.

  8. MINUS FOUR
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 25 days ago

    If you like playing the fixtures, it's worth considering recent performances and returns by attacking players from any team playing Cardiff. Adding to the interest is the fact a number of differentials have found their scoring potential in this fixture.

    GW27: Watford (a) vs Cardiff
    Deulofeu - 23 points
    Deeney - 15 points

    GW28: Everton (a) vs Cardiff
    Sigurdsson - 16 points
    Calvert-Lewin - 7 points

    GW29: Wolves (h) vs Cardiff
    Jota: 11 points
    Jimenez: 12 points

    So one striker and (perhaps even more interestingly) one attacking midfielder in each of Cardiff's last 3 games (including 2 home matches for them) have scored at least one goal and scored an average of 14 points per player!

    There appears to be a massive opportunity here, and these are the types of moves I have favoured all season - ignoring overcomplicated long-term plans and focusing entirely on immediate points potential. "But West Ham have a poor fixture in GW33 so I can't target Cardiff with a West Ham asset in GW30," I hear some people say. Why not!? West Ham two absolutely superb fixtures with a lot of points on offer, and I say worry about that not GW33.

    Personally I'm bringing in Lanzini this GW as my big punt. I've already got Arnie and hoping desperately for a start. Lanzini fits the mould perfectly like Deulofeu, Siggy and Jota. In the case of the latter two players, I considered them for those matches because of the Deulofeu effort, but decided against bringing either of them in. This time, I'm going for it.

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      I would like 90 min Arnie so have to see if gets it this game otherwise I'd rather get Wilson if back for 31

    2. #FPLBhuna
      • 7 Years

      add to this, cardiff are now without bamba.. could be a riot

      1. MINUS FOUR
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        Indeed. I am fully expecting a riot to be honest. Cardiff are shipping goals for fun against everyone. In my opinion there is far too much passive play in FPL, waiting to see what happens rather than identifying an opportunity and making a move.

        Will anyone really be surprised if West Ham put 3 or 4 past Cardiff? And then the Hammers are home to Huddersfield in BGW31.

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 25 days ago

          I'll be happy if Rice scores again

    3. tucaoneo
      • 5 Years

      That's very interesting

    4. FPL Forward Thinker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      Javier Hernandez not being mentioned much when you consider that few weeks of forward versus Cardiff

      1. FPL Forward Thinker
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        *Last few weeks

      2. MINUS FOUR
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        Not a bad shout but I just feel (hope) Arnie will come back in at some point.

      3. #FPLBhuna
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        i think im going chica mate

        exwhuemployee posted on twitter earlier in the week that he does not expect arnie to start, as chica is playing well

    5. FPL Forward Thinker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Bet you it’s Cardiff 0 West Ham 0

      I’d take Anderson’s 3 points it if it meant clean sheet and save and bonus from Fabianski

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        I see Felipe scoring

  9. DantheManinaPan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 25 days ago

    Barnes vs King

  10. McSauce
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 25 days ago

    9 players acceptable for GW31?

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Yes

    2. FPL Forward Thinker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Your 9 will probably score more than my 11

  11. Regin
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 25 days ago

    i really hope ajax draws a 'weaker time', maybe the winner of as rom vs porto and make it trhu to the the semis.

    this is what football needs. fearless attacking football.

    think about it. if u r a coach of a pl, would u rather have 30 wins & 8 losses or 20 wins & 18 draws at the end of a season? do the maths

    1. FPL Forward Thinker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      I’d take 78 points to avoid being grump 8 times

      1. Regin
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        that;s defensive
        be offensive

  12. Emiliano Sala
    • 7 Years

    do you think arnie will start this gw or not ?

    1. MINUS FOUR
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      I really thought he would start last GW, so that was disappointing. But again, I do have high hopes for a start this GW. Based on nothing but a hunch.

    Is there a bigger hypocrite in the fantasy football community than Joe?

    The amount of times we have heard him moan over the years and call people idiotic for making early transfers and everyone should disregard team value and wait until the latest possible time to makes transfers.

    Unless it’s a GW that suits him, and then it all seems OK. Even when it’s near the end of the season and building team value is less important and there are midweek games.

      Everyone is fickle here.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        It’s just the way he’s gone off (multiple times) over the years ranting about people making early transfers yet he’s done if a few times this season and those weeks it seems to be ok apparently.

      Eggdork is easily the biggest hypocrite. Gives crap advice on his patreon and does the complete opposite with his own team.

          But he is the greatest FPL manager of all time, isn't he?

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      I thought he was more critical of people celebrating price rises rather than people just making early transfers?

      Mark has regularly moved early down through the years for example & I don’t ever really remember Joe being critical of he early transfer itself...

      I could be wrong though

      1. Smurf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        Joe hasn’t just made comments, he’s full on ranted, about how idiotic it is for people to make early transfers. I’ve not heard much about the price rise celebration, just always moaning about how everyone should “do what he does” and wait all week to make transfers.

        And then moans about players rising because people have made transfers early and he doesn’t want to have to do that but also he doesn’t want to lose value. Rather than realising he needs to play the game. Either stay safe and use the upper hand of extra information for waiting in transfers or take the risk, make early transfers and get the upper hand of extra value.

            Although I love the slogan, I am not getting mad or anything as it doesn’t effect my game. I just find it ridiculous that he can make fun of people making early transfers all these years and then go and do it himself, multiple times.

            If he ranted about people making early transfers but then stuck to making late transfers then I’d have respect for him, but the hypocrisy is very cringe worthy.

              Maybe there is underlying history. Maybe he himself has been burned by early transfers so has an issue with them but deep down he can’t come to terms to admit publicly that there is a time and a place to mix it up during the season with some early transfers and some wait and see till just before deadline.
              Joe - please come out and say there is a time and a place to mix it up with transfer decisions. Please stop Papa smurf from feeling blue. #Save Papa Smurf!

      The issue I’ve had with early moves is:

      1. The over the top celebration of price rises as if they are actual points or goals going in.
      2. Making moves early when you have players involved in midweek / int matches.

      While I prefer late moves in general I’ve never had a problem with someone making a risk free move early to avoid being locked out of a specific transfer. This week all my players get a rest so just risk of training ground injuries to deal with.

      Always great to hear your rants but please do listen to mine more carefully 😉

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        From this I infer that you made an early transfer this week?

        Were you not celebrating in the streets with a ticker tape parade at the 0.1 investment?

        I can see both sides of the arguement..

        1. J0E

          • 14 Years
          5 years, 25 days ago

          Not at all - I’m very nervous about the move even though I have no players midweek. Not about building value just keeping myself in the running for a specific move. As said never had an issue with that.

    My plan like many is to FH GW32 and load up on double gameweek players. It seems to have escaped me but I've noticed that currently only 2 teams have a double GW32. Are we anticipating more fixture changes which gives more teams a double GW32?

    1. Snevitz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Yes, after the next round of the FA cup, which is why it's so useful to have the flexibility of the FH as it's impossible to plan for.

      1. gooberman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 24 days ago

        Which teams are most likely to get double weeks?

    2. Kiwivillan

  16. FPLShaqiri

    5 years, 25 days ago

    Anyone know what's going on with Yedlin? Played 9 in a row then benched for the last 2... just as I get him in. Thought it was tactical do use taller players vs Burnley but 2 in a row? Surely not dropped for Manquillo

    1. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      No one seems to know. I've asked as well

      1. FPLShaqiri
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        Think Manquillo must have something on Rafa. Used to get games at Liverpool randomly too!

        1. FPLShaqiri
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 25 days ago

          Although that was actually after Rafa left... I'm lost

          1. Dthinger
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 25 days ago

            the only thing I can imagine is that Rafa thinks Almiron is a defensive liability so he's trying to balance that out by using a player that spends less time in the attacking third than Yedlin does.

    2. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Newcastle fans seem quite confused aswell. Most reckon he'll be back in but not cemented at all so wouldn't risk it imo

      1. FPLShaqiri
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        Will probably save the FT. Bednarek coming in as my backup isn't ideal but Spurs haven't exactly been in great form so it's ok

        dont see arnie getting the spot back anytime soon after his whole china debacle and chica is playing well

        also the west ham itk account on twitter exwhuemployee posted a few days ago that he does not foresee arnie starting anytime soon whilst chica is performing

    2. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Nah, West Ham are a mid-table team with too many offensive players likely to share around what attacking points they get (which aren't much lately - 8 goals in the last 8 games) . I'm just sticking with a defender from them.

      1. #FPLBhuna

        valid point

      From one angle clearly out. From another angle clearly in. Even with multiple camera angles it’s hard sometimes. Should have defended it better and wouldn’t have had to bother going to VAR

    3. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      "clearly" lol. It would have been a farce if VAR ruled that goal out. If viewed from straight above I dont believe ball was 100% out. They cant rule goals like that out unless they implement goal line technology for the entire pitch.

            Was a pretty momentous achievement for them tonight though. Great to see really and some of their young players really look the business. I bet Klopp wouldn't mind getting hold of de Ligt. 😉

              Great little stat I saw on twitter:

              Their total revenue last season was less than what bottom placed West Brom got from TV income alone. What a job they do! Fantastic football.

      Playing for Real Madrid comes with having their fickle fans boo you.

      They booed Ronaldo and Raul at different points remember.

      But yeah I'd play one more season if I was him to hopefully go out on a high. Then get £600k a week or something from Man U.

    4. Bird Raymond
      • 12 Years

      The only clubs in England that would pay his current wages are Utd and City. It isn't really City's style to sign 30 year olds, and if Ole is in charge of Man Utd next season I don't think it would be his kind of signing either.

      1. Regin
        • 6 Years

        he should have never gone to rm. just stayed with spurs or switched to man clubs or liv.

        1. noquarternt

    -12 over next 2 gws gives me this for GW 31/33 (FH 32):

    Fab
    TAA Digne Ake
    Salah Mane Haz Fraser/Brooks FA
    King Hig/Vardy

    Will bring in Ake, Mane and King this gw. Use next gw to decide on Vardy or Hig and Brooks or Fraser.

    Thoughts?

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      I reckon both Robbo & VVD will outscore Mané

      Smashley Barnes is hard to ignore also

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        Thought about VVD and then getting maybe Madisson but I feel Mane and Ake outscore them 2 over 30 31 and 33

    2. Big Ping
      • 6 Years

      Not worth a -12 imo

      1. Bobby Digital

        This

      2. Tsparkes10
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        All 6 I'm losing are not playing 31 or 33 and all 6 I'm bringing in are so hits paid back from just appearances. I've gone too far now to not do it

    3. Bobby Digital

      Fancy

  23. Wheyyyy
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 25 days ago

    I'm a little stumped here and think if I write out the options, it will become clearer! I have 1FT and 7 currently playing in 31 (FH32). I'm looking at doing either 3 or 4 transfers to give me 10 or 11 for GW31. One of my transfers is a GK change (Guaita).

    My current Midfield is Salah/Mane/Pogba/Sterling/Puncheon.

    Definitely selling Sterling/Puncheon next week to Hazard/Brooks. So my dilemma is Pogba to Lanzini this week for a hit and 11 players in GW31 or hold Pogba and go with 10 in GW31?

    Any advice appreciated! Cheers.

    1. Snevitz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Why can't you take an extra hit next week if you think Pogba will outscore Lanzini this week?

      1. Wheyyyy
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        I don't really want to take a -8 going into 31.. It's a big punt to bring in Lanzini this week but feel it could pay off.

        1. Snevitz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 25 days ago

          What's the difference between spreading the hits out or concentrating them in one week?
          The only thing that matters is optimising points.

          1. Kiwivillan
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 25 days ago

            I don't understand unless +/- price changes means you miss out on target. Much rather another weeks data and 1 less game to get injured. Rather do all the hits on 31

            1. Fitzy.
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 12 Years

              Plenty of reasons why this is good advice.

              Hmm well the issue is I'd like to get Fab in for Guaita but don't have the funds on a single trade so would have to bring in Boruc. If I move Pogba to Lanz, I can get Fab. Team below may help:

              Speroni/Guaita
              Rob/Pereira/Doherty/AWB/Luiz
              Salah/Mane/Pogba/Sterling/Puncheon.
              Jim/Barnes/Vardy

                Boruc has better 31 33 fixtures and you should do Speroni>Boruc on chance Guaita comes straight back

                  Yeah alright! Thanks heaps for the advice all! Think I'll leave it as this:

                  GW 30 - Speroni -> Boruc

                  GW 31 - Sterling/Punch/Pog -> Haz/Brooks/Lanzini.

                  Cheers all 🙂

                    Button>Boruc is my FT this week and will take as many hits as feel necessary(or none) after GW30

            It’s actually better to use them next week rather than spreading them out if the players you’re replacing are a chance of getting points this week.

      Don't sell Pogba unless you bought late and I'd want him back for DGW 32

      1. Wheyyyy
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        I got him at 8.5, now at 9.0. Will most likely be bringing him back in on FH32.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years

          Easier than 7.9m I paid

        Thanks very much, I am pretty amazing!

          Tell me about it! Ha ha lol 🙂

    2. Bird Raymond
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      I never got round to moving Digne on and he is proving quite useful. Clean sheets in the last two, decent fixture this week and plays the blanks!

    3. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      I'll probably regret selling Snodgrass

    Madrid out? Such a shame 😆 😆 😆

    1. FPL Forward Thinker

      Atlético Madrid are offended.

    Just in from training to see Madrid are OUT? Wow. Go on yerselves Ajax, fair play.

    Solari must be out, surely?

    1. FPL Forward Thinker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      Brendan would take it

      Mark Hughes is still looking for his next job.

      1. Bird Raymond
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        He wouldn't take it with his Barcelona links.

        1. Smurf
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 25 days ago

          Yeah, that’s the reason he won’t be at the Bernabeu next season 😉

      Enter Paul Ince.

    4. Brosstan

      Big Sam deserved to be in contention.

    Any chance Son will be rested this weekend with Spurs CL progress?

    Wondering about switching to Maddison for FUL this week

    1. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Another 70 minute+ outing tonight suggests Poch gave him little rest before Southampton game, always a chance but I reckon he will start at weekend

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Could pay off. I went with Hazard.

    3. Shineonme
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Son will start this weekend and probably play 80 min

    Good enough for those spoiled, ungrateful Madridistas...., now hopefully Schalke follow suit and kick those book cooking cheats out on their ar ses

  29. pjanns
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 25 days ago

    A. Azpi, Hazard, Higuain, Wilson

    B. Digne, Brooks, vardy, Higuain

    Which would you rather have?

    1. Smurf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      A - but I’d prefer King over Wilson.

    2. acidicleo
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      A with Vardy and King.

    3. Shineonme
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      A by a long way

    Bench one

    A Jimenez
    B Pogba

    Thanks lads

    1. Smurf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Bench Jimi but I’d try to play both.

    2. Snevitz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      100% A
      Pogba has 15 attacking returns in his last 12 games and is up against Southampton.
      Jimenez plays a Chelsea side who have conceded 3 goals in their last 9 home games.

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        Man United play Arsenal...

      2. Smurf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        Pogba has already played Southampton.

      3. Mr. Sitter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        Pogba already played Southampton, it didn’t go well.

      4. Snevitz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 25 days ago

        Oops, but he'll do better than Southampton - i'd wiped that game from my memory.
        All good stats apart from that though 🙂

    3. acidicleo
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 25 days ago

      Neither.. But B if you have to and if Matic still out.
