Why has Everton’s attack been so underwhelming so far this season?

Everton’s popular attacking assets have underwhelmed Fantasy Premier League managers so far this season.

After two matches, they have scored just once, only Crystal Palace finding the net fewer times than the Toffees at this stage.

Perhaps we should not be too surprised to see Marco Silva’s men struggle in front of goal at this stage.

During their pre-season campaign, they scored just three goals in seven matches, with Richarlison (£8.0m) the only key figure missing for most of it.

One was registered against Kenyan side Kariobangi Sharks, while Monaco and Mainz were the only other teams to concede against Everton.

The Toffees drew blanks in four of their summer friendlies, against FC Sion, Wigan Athletic, Sevilla and Werder Bremen.

Of those who found the back of the net, Joe Williams and Lewis Gibson are not first-team regulars, the former now a permanent Wigan player, while Seamus Coleman (£5.5m) is the only summer goal-scorer to have played in either Premier League match so far this season.

Accordingly, ahead of a Gameweek 3 trip to Aston Villa, Fantasy managers might be looking to move on their Everton attackers.

We have assessed the underlying statistics from their first two matches of the campaign to find out if the Toffees have simply been unlucky not to score more often, or if there are some tangible reasons for concern.

    2. mookie

      If Spurs would play Newcastle every week and I would be allowed to pick 6 players from them, he wouldn't be one.

    Sterling easy captain choice for me this week, even with Kane in my side.

    1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      The opposite for me

    2. KDB4PREZ
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      This makes me feel even worse about not owning him haha (see post below)

    3. AicilaXI
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Kane easy captain choice for me this week, even with Sterling in my side.

    4. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Sterling all the way, City in miles better form than Spurs against an equally porous defence, gonna be a bloodbath.

    5. jia you
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      The easy captain choice but also the wrong captain choice 😉

    6. Cok3y5murf
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Defensive stats for Bournemouth are worse than Newcastle too though it's admittedly a small sample size. So you may be right.

    7. bigbudgie
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Bournemouth City is mouthwatering
      Sterling (c) KDB Laporte, what could go wrong?

    8. juho
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Yup me too
      Bournemouth’s xgc is worse

  5. KDB4PREZ
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Salah/Perez/Auba-Sterling/mane/Pukki/7mill striker for a -8.
    Is that crazy guys? Wouldn’t need to touch my team providing injuries until I plan to WC on GW8 lol

  6. RubeRx
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Siggy drop is so irritating!

    Would you play either

    Montoya vs SOU or Lundstram vs LEI

    over Wilson vs MCI ?

    That's stupid right, I should just go to bed?

    1. AicilaXI
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Wilson > Montoya > Lund for me.

      1. RubeRx
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        thx for the reply

  7. Brayden29
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    On Wildcard so both cost 4.5:
    A) Dunk
    B) Montoya

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      You bought Dunk at 4.5m?

      1. Brayden29
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Yes I got him in before his rise in case I want him

    2. Hairy Potter
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Dunk for me

    3. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Don't really rate Montoya and Dunk more likely bonus points. I have Dunk

  8. 03farmboy
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Who’s the best 4.5m defender?
    I’m struggling to pick between Söyüncü or Montoya

    Or is there an better option at that price bracket

    1. Stockport Hatter
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I went for Montoya but either could be good.

    2. RubeRx
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I'd prefer a wingback over a CB all day every day

      1. Kiwivillan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Montoya is not a great WB so not hugely relevant. 0 goals 1 assist in 2166 mins last season

        1. RubeRx
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          he wasn't a WB last season

          different system, formation, attack minded tactics etc

          small sample size but as of now he has more touches in the final third than AWB, Digne, TAA, Zinchenko, Ritchie, Azpi, Coleman

        2. FC nelo
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Didn't play as a wingback last year though. And the team seems more attacking this year. He has been more involved going forward the first two games than last year. A big difference.

          1. 03farmboy
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            You reckon he’s the best 4.5 option... Brighton do seem more attacking this season

    3. Sloths
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      How about Lundstram?

      1. 03farmboy
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Don’t you think Brighton will keep more clean sheets than sheff united?

  9. Murder On Zidanesfloor

    With Kelly not nailed, Isnt Hanley from Norwich better bench fodder? dont see him on any WC teams

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      When is Zimmerman back from injury?

      1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
        • 5 Years

        Im not even sure who is first choice. Is it zimmerman?

  10. Emiliano Sala
    • 7 Years

    KWP is pretty nailed atm right?
    Foyth long term injured
    Heard some rumours about aurier and milan. He is out of favour it seems

            What party ? 😀

                Fixtures putting me off. It's still norwich

                1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
                  • 5 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  Rememeber Vardy a few seasons ago? We all said fixtures arent good! they just fought a relegation battle FFS! Hes only scored 2 games in a row! and he went on to score 11 games in a row

                  1. Emiliano Sala
                    • 7 Years
                    4 years, 7 months ago

                    I think 6.0 or 5.5 defenders will outscore pukki. Maybe I'm wrong.

                  • 14 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  pity your not a member...

                  1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
                    • 5 Years
                    4 years, 7 months ago

                    Why? I have considered it

                    1. Christina.
                      • 14 Years
                      4 years, 7 months ago

                      ...talking to Jacky Boy...he could have seen Pukki's stats.

                      1. Emiliano Sala
                        • 7 Years
                        4 years, 7 months ago

                        I watched both games. But you know, chelsea, westham away and man city are really really awful. That is a mistake I made with jota this season and brought him in despite those tough games. Never again

                  2. Emiliano Sala
                    • 7 Years
                    4 years, 7 months ago

                    I was a member last year. Couldn't afford it this year. And not really needed it.
                    I just used heatmaps and average position in matches. Which I found in some apps

        2. Christina.
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          No Mane/Salah. Brave.

          Bench non existent.

          1. Emiliano Sala
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Think kdb and son are better values. son going to outscore both with those tasty home matches

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Really not sure, a few lacklustre displays and Poch could do his usual backline rotation

    3. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Im going KWP. Could be an amazing pick if and will definitely start this weekend. Have lundy to cover when he does get rotated

      1. Emiliano Sala
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        I got kelly to play him vs villa next week when kwp faces arsenal. Just hope he keeps his place for next gw

        1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          I would play him vs Arsenal. Spurs fullbacks have a history of scoring worldies against us

          1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Rose, Walker, Assu ekotto all did it

          2. Emiliano Sala
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Arsenal will most certainly score in emirates. Not much chances for assist
            Don't expect much from him.

  11. Sloths
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    I only have one Liverpool defender in VVD. Considering they're playing Arsenal is it worth going 352 and benching VVD for McGinn?

    Other defenders are Lundstram, Digne, WWB & Kelly

    1. AicilaXI
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Surely you would play VVD/Digne/AWB?

  12. Joshtrini
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    defence = digne,taa,matip,kelly,zinch
    matip to a 5.7m or below
    any suggestions

    1. El Matador
      • 10 Years

    I have a question regarding RMT tool in members area.
    It is showing projected score of
    King - 2.90
    Dendoncker - 2.75

    and still it advise me to bench King and play Dendo? why is it so???

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      RMT is a joke in my opinion. It had Anderson against Fulham last season as 3rd highest rated player in FPL even though he'd blanked the previous 6 weeks

    2. bigbudgie
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      It's an algorithm and not a particularly good one.

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Hover over the RMT score. If both were guaranteed a full game, Dendo predicted higher.

    4. Valar(Keith)
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Dendonker was totally out of steam end of last night. Played brilliant and ran across the entire pitch. May get a bit of a rest this weekend. Just FYI to help you with your decision. Nothing to do with the RMT which I never really use anymore

    5. juho
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Rmt does more harm than good
      Stats tables are where it’s at. I finished top10k for the first time because of them

  15. Stockport Hatter
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    On WC and had Kane al elk but it weakened my defence so I've pumped for this. Been trolled by Kane every year so think this is better longer term:-

    Pope
    AWB VVD Montoya Digne
    Mane Sterling KDB Martial
    Rashford Pukki

    McGovern Cantwell Lundstram Wickham

    Thoughts?

    1. Stockport Hatter
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Al elk??!! All week*

    2. El Matador
      • 10 Years

      If no Kane what about Son?

        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        I've considered him but KDB looked incredible last week and I think Sterling could end up top FPL scorer this season. It's an easy change if needed but he may not start this week and may only get up to 60 minutes if he does.

    3. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Rashford -> Barnes
      Martial -> Son

      Is one option

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Need at least one united attacker, don’t lose both

      2. Stockport Hatter
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Could do but I'm liking the United players for the next 4. Think they'll score big mate.

    4. mlm
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Nearly the same, but i go for adrian+zinc

    5. RAMZES666
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Almost the exact same WC team as me.

      Just that i had Zinc instead of VVD till at least Alisson returns. Allows 4m keeper to Heaton for some rotation and Montoya to KWP.

    6. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Nah get kane. weaken that defence imo

    7. RLN1985
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Pope
      Laporte/Digne/AWB/Lundstram
      Ceballos/Mane/Sterling/KDB
      Kane/Pukki

      Bench: Button/Cantwell/Kelly/Greenwood

      This can help you decide. Martial + rashford might get less than Kane + ceballos in long term

      1. Stockport Hatter
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks all. Just think that United attack will do some serious damage in the coming weeks.

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Do you? I don't think they will relative to other top teams so gone without any on WC. Could backfire of course

  16. Siva Mohan

    Good Morning Ladies & Gentleman!

    back after an year.. new job & new responsibilities..

    need your help..

    Heaton
    Digne | VVD | KWP | Robertson
    Pérez | Martial | Sterling | Salah
    King | Jota
    Burnley | Lundstram | Greenwood | Dendoncker

    2 FT & 2.0 ITB

    Perez + VVD >> KDB + 5.3 (BHA/LEI/WOL defender)

    hit it?

    1. Stockport Hatter
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Yes. Montoya, Soyuncu or Boly as def?

      1. Siva Mohan
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Boly or Soyuncu..

  17. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Kane TC could be an option this week.

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      You have that much faith?

      1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Think he's hungry for goals, Son is back, playing against Newcastle.
        Personally never get the TC right anyway so I'm considering for these reasons.

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          What forward isn’t hungry for goals 🙂 Son may not start straight away, and it’s all personal preference with Kane, i just can’t trust him. Lot of risk involved, i’d rather use it in a DGW

    2. bigbudgie
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      God no
      Spurs are just not explosive enough

    3. Hairy Potter
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Maybe, but if Newcastle are that bad it'd wait for GW5 when Liverpool play them. Failing that Man City have some great fixtures later on in the season around the time that there are usually DGW.

    4. AicilaXI
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Let's not go overboard.

    5. jia you
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I'm actually tempted but don't want to put the pox on my third hattie captaincy on the bounce 🙂

      1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        You havent mentioned this enough. Maybe write a community article about it?

        1. jia you
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Nah, cant give away my secret captaincy powers to the masses 😉

    6. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Probably won't be doing it. Cheers all!

  18. Sprofa
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    I really need some help with the team and don't know where to start.
    What should I do with my 2 FT's this week (0.0 ITB)?

    McGovern, Henderson
    Montoya, Rico, Digne, Alexander-Arnold, VVD
    Salah, KDB, Perez, Dendocker, Robinson
    Wilson, Ings, Kane

    Cheers!

  19. Canary_Kid
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Son expected to start?

  20. Valar(Keith)
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Glad to see Jota getting sharper and scoring again last night and getting subbed off around 68 mins. Should be fine for the weekend vs Burnley at home. The Jota bandwagon about to leave the station..

    1. bigbudgie
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Got him in this week, hope you are right

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I want on WC but he's -96.2%

      1. Valar(Keith)
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Ah. Will probably fall even before he plays. Tricky. I don't mind players like Jota falling tbh.. Since they will rise over the medium term due to their class. And when they do the 0.1 drops are easily recovered

    3. RubeRx
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Not concerned about Europa League hangover? History not kind to teams playing on Thursdays..

      1. Valar(Keith)
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Wolves rested Johnny, Neves and if Doherty isn't fit Traore will slot in without issue due to him playing just a few minutes over the past few weeks. The 3 cbs and keeper don't need rest. So that's the back 6 sorted. Jota got a breather last night and Jiminez got 15 mins off too. So hoping overall they won't be affected but will be more match sharp than Burnley if anything

        1. RubeRx
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Yea think they will be fine for now, its the long term that might be an issue

          One key injury here or there and everything changes, Doherty is a perfect example

  21. El Matador
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Best 4.5m defender lads?

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Mings but I'm biased and I don't have on WC

    2. SlipVertonghen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Probably Soyuncu

    3. Yankee Toffee
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Soyucu
      Pieters
      ??

    4. Canary_Kid
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Montoya

    5. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Leicester have 3 CS from 12 games under Rodgers. No disgruntled late season Pereira/Chilwell buyers from last season?

  22. Yankee Toffee
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    RMT 352 WC

    4.0, Pope
    AWB, KWP, Soyuncu, Lundstram, Hanley
    Mane, Sterling, KDB, Martial, Ceballos
    Kane, Pukki, 4.5

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I feel my team is stronger more flexible with McGinn instead of Martial

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Agreed but Martial > McGinn in points by miles

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          I'm not certain that's a sure thing

          1. Kiwivillan
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Pts/$ as I've said before In think Martial was more effective FPL asset LAM than #9 but we'll see

            1. Yankee Toffee
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Yes points and value are 2 very important things but at 7.5 I feel that Martial is a great value. Again my def suffers bc of it but I think Lundstram is a gift to us all this season.

              1. Kiwivillan
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 9 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                Back to back goals no bonus is red flag for me

          2. Salah’s Sonnet
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            One plays for united, OOP, and in good form, the other a villa player. Pretty sure thing imo

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      You’ll already know this, great attack, less than average defence, risk/reward and all that 🙂

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Def is now 5.5, 5.0, 4.5, 4.0, 4.0

        Keeping those prices, can I change players to strengthen it anymore?

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          My advice is simply to downgrade Kane and upgrade defence, maybe Rashford best bet. However entirely up to you mate.
          I tried multiple drafts with Kane in, and just couldn’t get comfortable with overall balance no matter how i tried.
          Your call bud 🙂

          1. Yankee Toffee
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Thanks for the advice, GL m8!

        2. Francescoli
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          I’d prefer a double up on Burnley in defence and take Lowton/Pieters, than having Soyuncu. Two tough fixtures but then it’s a sea of blue.

          1. Yankee Toffee
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Cheers m8, I’ll have a look

    3. SlipVertonghen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Your midfield is the same as mine, though I've opted for a stronger defence at the expense of Kane. Good to go I reckon

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Did u go Rash over Kane?

        1. SlipVertonghen
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Yeah, he's got some decent fixtures ahead too

          1. Yankee Toffee
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Considered it but only going with Martial for now as I want Kane for this GW. Can move to Rash later if needed. GL?

  23. RLN1985
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    On wildcard. Is this team good to go?

    Pope
    Laporte/Digne/AWB/Lundstram
    Ceballos/Mane/Sterling/KDB
    Kane/Pukki

    Bench: Button/Cantwell/Kelly/Greenwood

    idea is lund and cantwell rotation.

    1. Yankee Toffee
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      No Man U attack?

      1. RLN1985
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Thats the issue with this team and also no liverpool defenders with their fixtures getting better. But trust KDB + kane + lund will get more than martial + rashford + another defender

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Rather a mix of KDB + Rash/Martial

    2. Effe
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Looks good. Maybe KDB to Martial in midfield.

  24. amit1964
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    on wc, is it smart to get son this week?

    1. Yankee Toffee
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Wait and see imho

    2. AicilaXI
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I'd be wary.

      Could turn out to be a masterstroke, but it will more than likely not happen. Better to get a placeholder and wait until after Arsenal to see how he slots in if you want him that badly imo.

      1. amit1964
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        it is just 2 weeks ego a lott of us said that they wait until gw3 to bring him, so whats happend?

  25. Quality St
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    KDB or Rash for Cap’n this week?

    1. SlipVertonghen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I still don't trust Rash. Go KDB

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        ^

  26. Emiliano Sala
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Wish last week I knew I was going to WC this gw. Would definitley swap jota(vs manutd) to pukki (vs newcastle)
    Although I don't own him now on WC that was a no brainer move to be made.

    1. Christina.
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      what made you WC this week?

      1. Emiliano Sala
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Only Son. I swapped wilson + salah to kdb and kane but I wanted son badly. It needed 3 transfers so played WC and changed some other things too.
        Main reason was getting laporte and son for their coming games

        1. Christina.
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          cool, GL with the final tinkering.

      1. RubeRx
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        this, so easy to say now

      2. Emiliano Sala
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        No

  27. ROLLING THE DICE
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    I like Rashford over Martial, especially now he’s going to be on most pens. However, the saving would allow me to upgrade Mina + VVD. So:

    A) Rashford, Mina, VVD
    B) Martial, Robbo, Digne

    Thanks!

    1. Francescoli
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Has to be B

    2. Yankee Toffee

        But without Perez

        1. HanS14
          • 5 Years

          I know but can't take him out without a hit this week

  29. Francescoli

    4 years, 7 months ago

    (C) Kane or Sterling

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Sterlo for me bud

    2. aapoman
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      would go Kane if I had him so going Sterling

    3. Yankee Toffee
