Scout Notes

Wilson fortunate not to blank at Southampton as scoring run continues

Southampton 1-3 Bournemouth

Goals: James Ward-Prowse (£5.8m) | Nathan Aké (£4.9m), Harry Wilson (£6.0m), Callum Wilson (£7.8m)

Assists: Che Adams (£5.7m) | Diego Rico (£4.1m), Philip Billing (£5.0m), Aaron Ramsdale (£4.5m)

Bonus Points: Ramsdale x3, Ward-Prowse x2, C Wilson x1

Callum Wilson (£7.8m) made it sixth consecutive Premier League matches with Fantasy returns as he scored a late goal in Bournemouth’s win over Southampton.

The centre-forward, who has dropped £0.2m since the start of Gameweek 1, now has four goals and three assists for a total of 39 points.

Across the six matches, Wilson has averaged 6.7 points per game and still has appealing fixtures on the horizon, West Ham at home in Gameweek 7, Arsenal away after that and Norwich visit the Vitality Stadium in Gameweek 9.

Wilson was virtually anonymous for Bournemouth on Friday night but still scored against Southampton

However, it must be said that Wilson was largely anonymous for much of Bournemouth’s 3-1 victory on Friday night, his late goal coming from some calamitous Southampton defending.

Perhaps influenced by a slight ankle issue sustained towards the end of the first half, until the 94th minute, Wilson had not even registered one shot on goal. That changed when a long-ball out of defence from goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale (£4.5m) was poorly dealt with by Angus Gunn (£4.5m) and Jan Bednarek (£4.5m) who eventually clattered into each other.

That left Wilson with the freedom of Southampton to amble towards goal and slot in his latest strike.

Whether he is worth owning moving forward is perhaps still up in the air for some people.

He has registered just seven shots this season, the same number that Gerard Deulofeu (£6.2m) and Tom Cleverley (£4.9m) each managed against Arsenal alone, and yet has the same number of attacking returns.

Those numbers certainly suggest that his output is unsustainable, but the upcoming fixtures do look nice for him. As per usual, it means that Wilson has Fantasy managers perplexed, which we should probably be used to by now.

“In the first half, we were okay. I don’t think tonight we hit the heights we know we’re capable of. I thought it was scrappy at times. We weren’t as good on the ball as I wanted us to be but I thought we had the spirit and desire and determination to win.” – Eddie Howe

King was unfortunate not to get any attacking returns as Gameweek 6 began at Southampton

It was Joshua King (£6.3m) who scored higher in the eye test than Wilson, even playing on the left side of midfield.

The Norwegian international played in Ryan Fraser‘s (£7.3m) usual position, the diminutive winger dropping to the bench for the second match in a row.

King had by far the greatest presence in the Southampton penalty area compared to his colleagues although this was probably helped by Ralph Hasenhüttl’s perplexing decision to play left-footed centre-back Kevin Danso (£4.5m) at right-back.

Much of Bournemouth’s attacking work came down this side of the pitch in the first half, King slotting in a fine finish after Dominic Solanke (£5.4m) spotted his run from the left, only to see it disallowed for offside.

King was then unfortunate not to win a penalty in the second half when he was taken out by Cédric Soares (£4.9m). Had the spot-kick been awarded he would have almost certainly taken it given his history from 12 yards.

Danso (right) endured a torrid first half on Friday night

Hasenhüttl had no choice but to replace Danso with left-back Ryan Bertrand (£4.9m) at half-time, pushing Cédric to the right, given the way Bournemouth went 2-0.

The men to fully capitalise on the Southampton manager’s tactical error were Philip Billing (£5.0m) and Harry Wilson (£6.0m).

The central midfielder found himself in space on the left, vacated by Danso, and had a host of options queuing up in the box to dispatch his cross.

It was former Derby County midfielder Wilson who found himself on the end of it, finishing with ease.

“I think we lost this game in the first half with a really not good performance. Even if their first goal was a set-piece the opponent didn’t have that many chances but we also didn’t play as committed and as stable as we have been the last games. It was not a coincidence that we went two down in that moment and a few weak defeating situations where we could do it better and against an opponent who was very aggressive when we went two down. We changed the shape in the first half and it didn’t work and we changed the shape at half time and I think it worked better and we took the risk with 4-2-3 and were very aggressive.” – Ralph Hasenhüttl

Harry Wilson (right) has now scored three times for Bournemouth this season

That was Wilson’s third goal of the season, again highlighting his potential as a differential option for Bournemouth’s upcoming appealing run of fixtures.

Having said that, this was the Liverpool loanee’s first goal scored inside the penalty area, so Fantasy managers may want to see more action in the box before considering him over the likes of Mason Mount (£6.4m) and Daniel James (£6.2m).

His first goal in Bournemouth colours was a wonder-strike from distance at Villa Park in Gameweek 2, while he fired in a direct free-kick against Manchester City the following match.

Also of note was Billing’s first assist of the season was accompanied by his introduction into Bournemouth’s direct free-kick pecking order.

In the 85th-minute, with Harry Wilson off the pitch, but substitute Fraser on the field, Billing took the set-piece, sending it over the bar.

Rico now has two assists in as many matches for Bournemouth

At St Mary’s there was further development in the budget defender category as Diego Rico (£4.1m) got his second assist in as many matches.

The left-back has been involved in Bournemouth’s corners with Fraser on the bench for the last two matches, his 10th-minute cross directed into the net by Nathan Aké (£4.9m).

Admittedly, there was really poor marking for the corner from Southampton, but Rico’s role in set-pieces will not go unmissed by Fantasy managers on the hunt for value in defence.

However, they should keep an eye on what impact Fraser has on Rico’s corner count if the Scottish international can claw his way back into the team.

Furthermore, Bournemouth remain a side that does not look likely to keep clean sheets on a regular basis.

Despite a pretty abject start to proceedings, somewhat hindered by Hasenhüttl’s selection, Southampton still posed plenty of threat, especially in the second half. In fact, they finished the match with a total of 25 shots, more than four times as many as Bournemouth.

“In the second half (we had) 25 shots on the goal and a lot of chances and every second ball for us and very dominating and if we are two down it is difficult to come back and we could score more than once in that situation.” – Ralph Hasenhüttl

In the first 45 minutes, Sofiane Boufal (£5.5m) went close in the 20th minute, before Ramsdale was forced bat away a Nathan Redmond (£6.3m) effort from range.

Ward-Prowse was wasteful from open play but still got on the scoresheet against Bournemouth

In the second, James Ward-Prowse (£5.8m) had a hatful of chances but sent most of them blazing over the crossbar, perhaps reminding Fantasy managers that his goal threat largely stems from set-pieces.

He had the chance to prove that in the 51st minute when Steve Cook (£5.0m) brought down Che Adams (£5.7m) in the penalty area.

At this stage in the game, a spot-kick was more than just rewards for Southampton’s improved efforts after the restart and Ward-Prowse dispatched it ruthlessly.

“After the changing of a back five in the first half we had a period with 10-15 minutes a better position in the game and more possession and created a few chances for us also and a few good moments in the first half. When we found better the game came the next hit for the second goal and it’s not easy to stand for the team. At half time we had to be clear in the mind and try to find the right decision and I think we took the right decision at half time because the second half was a massive reaction for us.” – Ralph Hasenhüttl

Southampton continued to offer hope of an equaliser in the closing stages, Redmond coming the closest in the 73rd minute.

After a great cross from Cédric, a loose ball fell to the former Norwich man, unmarked in the box. He probably should have scored with his powerful finish but Jack Stacey (£4.4m) was on hand to throw his body on the line and produce an all-important block.

“We weren’t good in the second period. We were very reactive, we looked tired and that’s where we had to show our heart and determination to see the game out. There were some heroic blocks and a really good save from our goalkeeper.” – Eddie Howe

    Best 2 for team moving forward

    A Salah
    B Son
    C Sterling

    1. DantheManinaPan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Currently AC - but wouldn't be surprised to see Son take off over the next few

    2. The Overthinker
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I have all 3 😮

    3. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      You have a feeling now that Son is one of the main man in that Spurs team, so Son and Salah. Ideally you would want all 3, maybe Mane instead of Salah to free up a little.

    4. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      AC. Think Sterling has had his dry period now and will be back to essential.

      Son, we know have his good periods each year, but as soon as everybody gets him, goals dry in and to inconsistent

    5. Samurai Blue
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      AC

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

      I’m going with b and c due to a’s tougher fixtures.

    7. Pinturicchio10
        4 years, 6 months ago

        AC with B as next best in my opinion.

      • Good Times
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        If you can all three, but that will probably make aguero the fall guy if you have him

    8. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      This is tough. Which Trio would you prefer?

      A) Auba Mane Son

      B) Haller Salah Sterling

      Pope 4.0
      TAA Aurier Soyuncu (Rico Lundstram)
      ________ , ________, KDB Mount Cantwell
      Abraham Pukki ________

      1. The Overthinker
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Kun mane and ...

        1. Midlands Saint73
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Son would make a nice trio

      2. DantheManinaPan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Immediate reaction was to say 100% B.

        But on further reflection... A does look pretty nice....

        Still B though 😛

        1. HurriKane
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          It does look nice . Lets see how it pans out this gw

      3. Here's Tom with the We…
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        That is tough! I have B, so I’d go A if I were you

        1. HurriKane
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Same. Currently got B. But if sterling blanks again im seriously considering moving to A

          1. Here's Tom with the We…
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            I have the same midfield, but really want Son in my team. It’s tough.

            1. HurriKane
              • 11 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Yh Son is very tempting. literally playing as striker with kane dropping deep

      4. European Bob
        • 11 Years

        A

        A better balance but sterling Captain hauls will kill you, so B

      • 10 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I nearly made a move last night to catch a Tammy rise. Very glad I held off! The move looks awful when I look back really!

      New plan is to use 2FT on Bilva + Greenwood --> Tammy + Hayden.

      Previous plan was to do Trent + Bilva + Haller --> Ota + Son + Tammy.

      Yeah that previous plan is the flavour of the month but selling Trent and Haller looks proper daft.

      1. Rojo's Modern Life
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Calm yourself. You've got good players, no need to sell

    10. Here's Tom with the We…

      I’d keep Vardy. Get KDB!

      • 13 Years

      Thoughts on TAA + James + Greenwood -> Otamendi + Cantwell + Tammy for -4?

      Greenwood benched in first and Cantwell in second

      1. DantheManinaPan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Looks alright, but not convinced about selling Trent. Do you have a wildcard in your pocket to get Trent back in a few weeks?

        1. Hansel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Got the wc intact, agree with Trent but the option is to remove Digne for someone like Tomori

      2. Klopp's Kids
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I just brought TAA on a WC so I'd keep him.

        I'd try to get Mount and Tammy in somehow.

        I wouldn't sell TAA before Sheffield.

      Worth to do Haller to Wilson for -4 next week?

      1. ZeBestee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Probably not. Haller may score against Bou, who are not very strong defensively themselves. Billings and Lerma combo have definitely help to keep them a bit tighter this season though.

      2. Here's Tom with the We…
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        No

      3. CRO KLOPP

        I wouldn't for a hit,for free yes

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

        No way. Look at the stats, Haller looks far better. Wilson has been lucky on 3 of his returns

      6. DantheManinaPan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      4 years, 6 months ago

      Can anyone still believe the massive amount of value Cantwell has provided?

      Just keeps on looking better and better as the GW's move on. Dare I say I will be starting Pukki and Cantwell in most GW's.

      1. ZeBestee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah, easily the best value player this season. Can see Buendia doing better overall though come the end of season, although of course he is a bit more expensive.

      2. el polako

      So many premium mids and strikers we would like to have.

      And so many great value priced mids and strikers we would like to have...

        Pretty good season

        1. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Hard to choose and easy to want changes from week to week after who scores well each week... hard to be pacient

      2. Good Times
        • 10 Years

        True

      3. ZeBestee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        It makes the game less interesting, casuals getting easy points every other week while the serious players are doing bad with their patience.

        1. Brosstan
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Hope you arent serious..

          1. ZeBestee
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Not serious at all, only that I spend my precious time on this game. If it continues like this, I may as well be a casual. 😉

              That'll give you a better rank tbh

              One of my friend, checks his team on Friday, brings in players who have the max points / at the top.
              Has a rank of 85k .

              And here I am , Overthinking all week. Trying different combinations, getting deep into numbers.

              Rank 1

              1. The Overthinker
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                Rank 1 would be bloody Brilliant 😀

                Rank 1.8M

            2. Brosstan
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Look at elite 64 ranks mate, hard season for most who have played the proven solid approach. It will probably change over the season, unsustainable scoring rates for the bandwagons

        2. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Well, every season is A different game, can’t rely on so many of last year’s heroes and new strategies have to be considered

    23. FOO FIGHTER

      My GW rank sitting at 1.4m 🙁 but Bou and Soton played so that is a positive lol.

      How mad is from 0-10 to captain kdb today and take him off for son tomorrow?

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        eh? Are you saying you’ve captained KDB?

        1. Peter Ouch
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

                Mo

      2. ZeBestee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        KDB is a season keeper as long as he keeps fit imo. Son has nice fixtures, and showing form at the right time. Have both.

      3. Pinturicchio10
          4 years, 6 months ago

          0. Son is a better pick in my opinion.

      4. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        If MouMou does go to Real, Pogba will be raging

        He’d be basically locked at Utd unless PSG wanted to throw their hat in the ring for him

        1. The Senate
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Would be frankly hilarious

          1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            What would potentially be even funnier is if MouMou goes, and in the time honoured Madrid tradition, they don’t involve the manager in transfer deals & Pogba ends up there as well

        2. ‘Tis the Season
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          they would have pay 'zizi' out millions. doubt they will sack him, he should get time till Jan to buy Pogba

      5. The Senate
        • 5 Years

        Is -4 with 11 players to play any good?

        1. FOO FIGHTER
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Depends on who you capped.

        2. Good Times
          • 10 Years

        4 years, 6 months ago

        Hey guys, should aguero rotations start again what move do you suggest for the team below to get Tammy in 2fts

        Pope
        Awb sonyucu mings
        Salah Sterling Kbd cantwell
        Aguero Barnes Pukki

        Button Hanley lundstram Douglasluiz

        A) aguero Barnes => auba tammy
        B) Barnes awb => aurier tammy
        C) any other suggestion

        Would be thankful!

        1. CRO KLOPP
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          A
          or Salah to Mane and Barnes to Tammy

          1. Good Times
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Interesting, honestly don't see myself selling Salah barring real drop of form or injury he's looked dangerous every game

          2. Good Times
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Also you prefer holding awb instead of dropping a hypothetical rotated aguero is interesting

        2. CRO KLOPP
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          I would rather downgrade Salah to Mane then lose Aguero with those fixtures, I think he will play PL games with Jesus cup and CL.
          Aurier could be rotated also.
          If you don't want to lose Salah then go A IMO
          GL

          1. Good Times
            • 10 Years

            Thanks for the insight!

      7. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        If Harry Wilson is the new Mount, Mount is the new Hazard, and Tammy is the new Drogba...

        Then who is the new Harry Wilson?

        1. FDMS All Starz
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Iwobi?

          1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Ah that would be it

            The circle is complete 🙂

        2. ZeBestee
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Harry Wilson himself.

        3. The 12th Man
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          James Callaghan.

      8. FDMS All Starz
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Thoughts on this 3-5-2 team going forward?

        Pope
        Aurier - Otamendi - Söyüncü
        Salah - Mount - Sterling - Son - Kdb
        Pukki - Barnes

        Subs: Button - Guilbert - Hayden - Lundstram

        1. The Senate
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Yes but I’d swap Soy to Mings

        2. The Tinkerman
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          You have 6 mids

      9. The Overthinker
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Wilson last 4 weeks 30 points
        Pukki last 4 weeks 25 points (yet to play the 4th game)

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Pukki’s 10 PPG is frankly disgusting, I don’t know what he’s playing at

          As is Tammy’s 7 goals from about 8 shots/2XG in last 3

      10. Egg noodle
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Salah + Greenwood
        TO
        Son + Abraham.

        Yay or Nay?

        Salah has rather poor fixtures.

        1. fr3d
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Salah away to Sheffield U though?

          1. Egg noodle
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Son home to Southampton and then better longer term prospects.

        2. FOO FIGHTER
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          I really would not get rid of Salah for either.

          Who else will you have in midfield and up top?

          1. Egg noodle
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Sterling KdB Cantwell Hayden Pukki Wilson

            1. FOO FIGHTER
              • 4 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              The moves you make now not going with Salah, will result in who you get rid of to get Salah back unless you still have your WC as if you don't, getting Salah back at 12.5m will result in hits you may not like.

        3. The Tinkerman
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          I’m keeping Salah for SHU and LEI then switching to get Auba for a few weeks I think

          1. Egg noodle
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Auba unfortunately is a distant dream for me, can't imagine ever affording him without wildcard

            1. The Tinkerman
              • 8 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Salah and Greenwood can become Auba and a ~6.5-7.0m mid with 2FT for me.

              I have one extra FT before then, will downgrade one of my 5 playing (4.5m+) defenders to get more funds if injuries permit.

        4. No Professionals
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Don't get the "liverpool have poor fixtures" thing.

          They are one of the two best teams by a mile. Almost all of their fixtures are good.

      11. Moose™
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Bit early I think.. GTG if no injuries?

        Pope

        VVD Digne Aurier

        Salah Sterling KdB Mount Cantwell

        Vardy Haller

        Sub: Button Greenwood Lundy Hanley

        1. The Senate
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Yup

          1. Moose™
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            No Son and Kun tho..

              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 5 Years

        1. CRO KLOPP
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          I played Rico instead,hope he doesn't punish me

        2. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Played Cantwell instead, could go both ways

        Early thoughts here,who will be your captain next week?

        1. The Tinkerman
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Salah

        2. Peter Ouch
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Salah

        3. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Raheem Sterling

        4. CRO KLOPP
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Seems like a good week to take a punt on Tammy, I don't own Salah

        5. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Son

        6. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Salah or Tammy

        7. Pinturicchio10
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Son is the front runner

          • Top Lad Dakes.
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Probably Salad

          • pingissimus
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Son if he looks god this week - other than that choosing between Mane, Kun and KdB

            1. The Tinkerman
              • 8 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Nice 4 premiums. What does the rest of your team look like?

              1. pingissimus
                • 5 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                Son would only come in as a double move from Kun! I’d be getting Tammy in 7 and would also have cash for Vardy in 9.

                I may well just hold of course for a week or so but a hot Son is a huge draw for me and Vardy is really inked in already from 9 - think he’s the likely KdB of attack and combo with Pukki and Tammy feels great.

          • The Overthinker
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Salah

        8. djskope
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          I have 2 frees and would like to beef up my defence with a double transfer.
          Thinking of getting rid of Matip and Kelly + 0.5 ITB = a budget of 9.9 total

          I was thinking Aurier (4.9) + Tomori (4.5) for GW7 but concerns about them always starting despite great fixtures/returns

          Or Ederson (5.5) may be due to return, great fixtures and attacking heatmap - possibly team him up with a 4.4 like Guilbert?

          Any feedback please? Or perhaps a different combo for GW7 onwards?

          1. djskope
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            My transfer screen screenshot - https://i.imgur.com/48AWLDM.png

          2. pingissimus
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Chelsea defence doesn’t attract me at all until and unless Kante returns and makes a difference. Clean sheets look terrible with having conceded twice to SU at home.

          3. HollywoodXI
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            I’m making the exact same transfers - Hanley and Kelly out for Tomori and Aurier.

            1. djskope
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              I am gonna monitor if and where Ederson plays.. prob more nailed than Tomori when fit

        9. JenkoJunko
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Thoughts on this WC?

          Button Pope
          Mings Diop TAA Rico Lund
          Salah Sterling KDB Mount Ceballos
          Abraham Pukki Haller

          Am I going to cheap in defence?

          1. The Tinkerman
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            I’d be tempted to go Mane over Salah and improve the defence a bit. Otherwise looks good.

            1. JenkoJunko
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Yeah I have been thinking that! Just very scared to not have Salah haha! Thanks
