Latest on Antonio, Lingard and Soucek as Masuaku enjoys advanced role at Wolves

WOLVES 2-3 WEST HAM

  • Goals: Leander Dendoncker (£4.6m), Fábio Silva (£5.2m) | Jesse Lingard (£6.3m), Pablo Fornals (£5.8m), Jarrod Bowen (£5.9m)
  • Assists: Adama Traoré (£6.0m), Pedro Neto (£5.7m) | Vladimir Coufal (£4.6m), Arthur Masuaku (£4.3m), Lingard
  • Bonus points: Lingard x3, Dendoncker x2, F Silva x1, A Traoré x1

JESS SAYIN’

Jesse Lingard (£6.3m) continued his impressive run of form with a ninth and tenth attacking return of the season in West Ham’s 3-2 win at Wolves.

The Manchester United loanee has enjoyed quite the renaissance since his Hammers debut in Gameweek 22, already amassing 18.2% ownership worldwide.

During that time no Premier League player has been involved in more goals than Lingard (10), who has produced four double-digit hauls, a total of 68 points in eight appearances (8.5 points per game).

“It’s just consistency I think. I’ve obviously not played for the past two years, I think. So to play week-in, week-out and keeping up form but the team has helped me tremendously.” – Jesse Lingard

The question facing Fantasy Premier League managers not in possession of the England international is whether or not he can sustain this form, especially with Leicester and Chelsea two of West Ham’s next three opponents.

After Monday night’s win at Molineux, there are two factors to consider here.

The other factor is what happens elsewhere in the West Ham team, considering Michail Antonio (£6.7m) went off injured against Wolves…

MICKY PLEASE BE FINE

David Moyes is waiting to assess potential damage to Antonio’s hamstring after he was forced off 36 minutes into West Ham’s Gameweek 30 outing.

The player has a history of muscle injuries, especially in recent seasons, hence the manager’s concern.

As things stand, West Ham’s doctors need to take a closer look before confirming whether or not he will miss the Gameweek 31 meeting with Leicester.

“We’re not sure yet. We’ll assess it tomorrow. He doesn’t feel too bad just now but we’ll check it tomorrow and see what it is. It looks as if he’s felt his hamstring, so we’ll need to check it out.” – David Moyes

“Mick felt his hamstring a little bit and we’ve just got to hope it’s nothing too bad, but if you’re a West Ham supporter know you all about Mick’s hamstrings, so we’ve got to be really wary of it.” – David Moyes

Antonio played a key role in Lingard’s impressive solo goal against Wolves, making a clever run to distract defenders and open up space for him to run into.

While Jarrod Bowen (£5.9m) scored as the centre-forward’s replacement, the former Hull man naturally offers less physical presence up-top compared to Antonio.

Therefore, owners of Lingard, or potential suitors, will need to keep an eye on how West Ham’s number 30 develops fitness-wise between now and Friday’s FPL deadline.

Meanwhile, there were also mild injury concerns about Lingard himself, who appeared to be struggling in the late stages of Monday’s win.

However, it has since been confirmed that he was suffering nothing more than cramp after a coming together while Tomas Soucek (£5.3m) got a cut on his ankle. We understand neither player required further assessment on Tuesday morning.

“Tomas (Soucek) has a cut in the ankle and Jesse (Lingard) got raked, but unfortunately we are just getting a few injuries.” – David Moyes

AND I SAY HEY

Monday night was a match for the formational-change purists as both West Ham and Wolves were forced into new shapes on the back of recent injuries.

Owners of Aaron Cresswell (£5.9m) perhaps have the most cause for frustration as his 28.6% backing watched him take on a more conservative role at Molineux as the Hammers often moved into a back-five when out of possession.

One of the reasons for that shift was Arthur Masuaku‘s (£4.3m) return to the team for a first start since Gameweek 11.

Prior to his injury, Cresswell would often play as the left-sided centre-back in a three-man defence with Masuaku and Vladimir Coufal (£4.6m) taking up wing-back duties.

Fantasy managers should certainly keep an eye on how that situation develops as they consider the best way to invest in West Ham’s defence between now and the end of the season.

Meanwhile, Wolves were forced into two late defensive changes in Gameweek 30.

Jonny (£5.4m) is now out for the season after sustaining an anterior cruciate ligament injury in training while Willy Boly (£5.4m) was ruled out on the morning of the game by a positive coronavirus (COVID-19).

“Jonny had a difficult injury on the right knee. It requires surgery so he will be missing the rest of the season. It’s tough, especially for him, besides he’s an important player and an important member of the squad.” – Nuno Espirito Santo

At such a late hour, and with other defensive shortages this season, Nuno did not have the option to revert to Wolves’ traditional three-man defence, and had to field Rayan Aït-Nouri (£5.0m) at left-back while Romain Saïss (£4.9m) had a poor game in a two-man central defensive pairing with Conor Coady (£4.8m).

Wolverhampton Wanderers XI (4-2-3-1): Patrício; Aït-Nouri (Hoever 90′), Saïss, Coady, Semedo; Neves, Dendoncker; A Traoré, Podence (F Silva 46′), Neto; Willian J (Vitinha 72′).

West Ham United XI (3-4-2-1): Fabianski; Cresswell, Diop, Dawson; Masuaku (B Johnson 67′), Noble, Soucek, Coufal; Lingard, Fornals (Benrahma 78′); Antonio (Bowen 36′).

    Anyone else getting dusted in their league?Nearly 100 behind now, luck has been awful Grealish, Son, Antonio this week.

    Who is the punts to back for the rest of the season in a hope to regain top spot?

    1. No Professionals
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      yeah 100 points is about done now unless they do some very silly things / you captain a 2 or 3 hattricks that they don't own.

    2. NotsoSpursy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Also 100 behind very annoying!!!
      But WC left and some DGWs so I’m still hopeful

    3. No Professionals
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      target Vardy and captain for his plum fixtures (has about 4 in a row).

      1. jimmyharte
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah I'm thinking of Iheancho you reckon Vardy? Prob is whatever I do they seem to do. Brought in azpi this week last week was lingard before that Barnes. So the punts feel pointless. May need to do -8 on 3 changes

    4. KAALI_DAAL
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Leading

  2. DB_00
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Done Bale > Jota already (ik early transfer but Bale is honestly my worst transfer of the season and just couldn't wait to sell). Have another FT and willing to take hit but idk which option to go with, thoughts appreciated!

    A) Dallas + Raphinha > Phillips + Salah (-4)
    B) Dallas + Bamford/Antonio > TAA + Vardy/Nacho (-4)
    C) Dallas + Bamford/Antonio + Raphinha > Phillips + Nacho + Salah (-8)

    1. Jebiga
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      A

  3. No Professionals
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Bottomed - any feedback would be appreciated...

    Areola
    Shaw Digne Stones
    KDB Fernandes Gundogan Raphinha Lingard
    Kane Watkins

    Martinez Bamford Dallas Burn
    2.6m 1FT

    No WC left, happy to take a hit.

    A) Raphinha and Digne to Jota and TAA
    B) Raphinha and Burn to Jota and Phillips
    C) just Raphinha to Jota

    still have BB, so need to lose Burn at some point.

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      A

  4. NotsoSpursy
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    May well have been covered apologies! but who should I sell to bring in Jota?

    A) Gundo
    B) Raph

    1. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      B surely given fixtures

      Can easily get back Raph from GW34 onward

    2. NotsoSpursy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Thanks!!

  5. Champions League Varane
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Thoughts on Gundo and Antonio to Kelechi and Jota -4? With exact cash. Antonio news sounds promising and Gundo has Leeds?

    1. No Professionals
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Antonio promising, but they'd be crazy to rush him back, must miss a couple surely.

      1. Champions League Varane
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah I guess it’s more Gundo I’m afraid of losing ahead of Leeds

  6. DannyDrinkVodka
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Son is likely to drop before GW31, correct?

    1. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Hopefully

      1. The Ejiptian King
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Hello mate, are you WCing?

        1. TheDragon
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          Only just seen this - but yes I am!

          Team value not great so think I’ll have to go without TAA

    2. NotsoSpursy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Probably yes

      1. DannyDrinkVodka
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Need this to happen in order to complete my perfect WC

  7. Mr. O'Connell
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    FPL need to address the striker/midfielder imbalance next season. Looking at my wildcard now and I genuinely think the 3rd best option (behind Kane and Ihenacho) is Chris bloody Wood.

    Meanwhile there are about 12 mids I'd happily pick.

    1. dbeck
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Earlier in the season it was easy to fill those spots, Watkins, Antonio, Bamford, Kane, Vardy, DCL, Wilson and Adams were all good options. The season ebbs and flows

    2. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I am on Davis as third one!!

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Having my benchboost is proving a real headache. I'd love to pick Davis and be done with it.

    3. NotsoSpursy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I’m thinking for just playing Kane upfront for the next few

      1. Warby84
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        I’m going Kane as lone striker

    4. Baines on Toast...
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      there are five midfielder slots and three upfront

    5. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      On Davis and will play 4-4-2 or 3-5-2

  8. NotsoSpursy
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Good to keep Bamford on a WC? Or not really

    1. Jebiga
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Why ?

    2. NotsoSpursy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Take that as a no 🙂

  9. RamboRN
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Wc team. Gtg?

    Mendy
    Dias taa shaw
    Bruno jota son salah lingard
    Kane iheanacho

    Subs. Forster, rudiger, Kilman, vydra

    1. NotsoSpursy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Looks solid !

    2. DannyDrinkVodka
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      really nice, would rather upgrade Kilman and kill off Vydra

    3. Jebiga
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Kilman ?
      Are you sure about gametime
      ?
      Coady for 4.8 is steal tho

    4. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Vydra to Davis and upgrade Kilma

      1. RamboRN
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        If I upgrade killman by downgrading vydra then it could give me benching issues with 5 solid mids and 5 playing defenders, I already will have an issue with the 4 defenders I have that play

  10. b91jh
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Which is better on WC?

    A) Phillips+Vardy
    B) TAA+Iheanacho

    1. DannyDrinkVodka
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      B for sure

    2. istanbul05
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      B all day

  11. istanbul05
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Thoughts on my first WC draft?

    Mendy, Forster,
    Trent, Shaw, Rudiger, Coady, Holding,
    Salah, Bruno, Jota, Gundo, _____,
    Kane, Vardy, Iheanacho

    A) Lingard
    B) Neto (lets me do Gundo to Moura next week for DGW)

    1. HD7
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Similar to mine, I got Neto and lost 0.1 with Lingard. Having said that, I still got Lingard back. Its all my fault I got him out on Sunday

    2. Jebiga
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      No Son for dfw 32 ?

      1. istanbul05
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        I'm leaning towards Moura for a second Spurs attacker due to value... could obviously be punished but Son really hasn't been in form since the first half of the season. Since GW18, he's scored >5 points twice...

    3. Fit_to_drop
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      No Leeds, who have a good run to end of season after next 3 difficult fixtures...

      1. istanbul05
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Would ideally have liked to have kept Raphina, but think it's worth transferring out on a WC with a plan to bring back in later.

  12. HD7
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    All with WC and BB remaining, what is the plan for the BB, mates?

    Waiting for GW35 official announcement of DGW?

    1. Jebiga
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Gw32 is awesome for bb and you have same selection for gw35

      1. HD7
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        How many teams have DGW32 mates and which teams?

        1. Mweene
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          Just Spurs.

          1. HD7
            • 7 Years
            2 years, 11 months ago

            I see. Well to be fair this isnt a DGW. I had three Spurs before the WC. Now I have 2 😀

            They dont seem on form and probably will rotate before the final. So this aint a DGW for me:)

    2. Mweene
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Might just play it in 32 if there's no further news by then. DGW35 isn't guaranteed anyway.

  13. No Professionals
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    feels like Vardy could be the big differential for the run in. Next 5 are...

    whu
    WBA
    CRY
    sou
    NEW

    he's difficult to slot in unless on WC without losing Kane or taking hits, everyone jumping on Iheanacho (I think he's a trap). Get a couple of Vardy captains right and it couple be a big swing.

    1. Champions League Varane
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      And they are vardy fixtures

      So tempted but he’s just that little bit too much. If on WC surely he’s in

      1. Whazza
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Thought Vardy fixtures were against the bigger teams? Anyway Vardy has 1 goal since gw 15... While Iheanacho has 5 in the last 4 for half the price.

        1. No Professionals
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          form is temporary, class in permanent.

          don't be surprised to see iheanacho out of the team in the next couple of weeks.

          1. Whazza
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            2 years, 11 months ago

            Surely not if he keeps scoring. Easy enough fixtures to play two strikers. Having both is an option but if Vardy you need to get rid of someone like Bruno lol no ty

      2. HD7
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Who would miss to get Vardy in?

        Bruno Salah or Son?

        1. No Professionals
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          i think that what makes him such an upside, you have to take a big call to get him in.

          could backfire of course, but he's a good option for people chasing.

  14. DannyDrinkVodka
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Looks like the winning play for WC31 might be to select a City mid who doesn't feature tonight (Mahrez would be a prime candidate) and leave enough money ITB to upgrade said mid to Son for DGW32

    1. b91jh
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Or Jesus/Kun then change to Vardy

  15. Jebiga
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Dias or Stones ?
    I guess Stones will play more premier league than CL, right ?

  16. b91jh
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Thoughts on going Moura instead of Son on WC? Price point is quite strange to upgrade/downgrade for the latter...

    1. No Professionals
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      don't do it. you'll put him in and he'll be straight on the bench.

  17. Krafty Werks
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    With WC do you prefer? Chasing 2 x mini league players who have used all their chips but are 70 & 80pts ahead of me, if i get the WC right i might just reel them in? Thanks :

    A
    Mendy / Forster
    TAA / Dias / Shaw / Coady / Holding
    Salah / Son / Jota / Lingard / Smith-Rowe
    Kane / Vardy / Wood

    B
    Mendy / Forster
    TAA / Dias / RUDIGER / Coady / Holding
    Salah / Son / Jota / Lingard / BRUNO
    Kane / IHEANACHO / DAVIS

    1. Jebiga
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      B is better

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I am on B expect Shaw over Coady ( similarly chasing) and as a differential punt if Mahrez benched tonight then will bring in ahead of Son and captain v Leeds and then get Son in for 32 double

      1. Jebiga
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Nice plan

      2. Krafty Werks
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Sounds good, i'm considering KDB just for Leeds then switching to Bruno, will reassess after UCL.

        1. Whazza
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          Big chance KDB is rested vs Leeds though... Didn't rest Leicester, won't rest Dortmund.. Why risk him vs Leeds?

          1. Krafty Werks
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 11 months ago

            Yeah i guess so? It's just the upside vs Leeds which is very tempting? Perhaps not?!!

            1. Whazza
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              2 years, 11 months ago

              Tempting, but I don't see him starting myself. Playing leeds is tough, big injury risk for kdb

  18. Jebiga
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Is Holding nailed ?

    1. Krafty Werks
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Not nailed no but usually the replacement of choice when David Luiz is out and he's out for the foreseeable so certainly looks like he'll be a starter now?

      1. Jebiga
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Nice finding

  19. Flynny
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Hi....my wildcard boils down to whether I go for Bruno or vardy

    Already got Kane and iheanacho

    Bruno is the safe option. But my rank is 200k and I don't have much to lose, do I go vardy who is much less owned?

    What would you do? Thanks

    1. Jebiga
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I would say squeeze both

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Can you go Vardy Greenwood- with Martial out for season and Cavani not really playing well could be great differential to end of season ( I hesitate to suggest as many comments here against Greenwood over Bruno- but if chasing we know from last season what he can do so may be worth risking)

      1. Flynny
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Cheers mate. Yes have looked at greenwood....Still concerned re his minutes though

        Presume he starts in Europe and them might he be rotated at the weekend? Thanks

    Members question:
    In the player stats section, how can I see all players statistics together (like in this article , when you see Forwards and Midfielders together) and not divided by position ?

      Honestly, no clue. Been a member for years but never figured it out.

        Actually you might have to create your own chart

          Ohh, sounds a plan, will check it out. Thanks

        Same, it’s my third year of membership and can’t find it.

    FTs give me this starting GW32. Looks ok?

    Martinez Forster
    Stones Rudiger Coady Phillips Struijk
    Salah KDB Gundo Bruno Jota
    Kane Iheanacho Antonio

    1. Jebiga
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      That's bb team ?
      99% will play bbdg32

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        BB already used.

    2. Darlo
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Bit worried about the defence given that Stones and Rudiger are being rotated and Struijk has lost his place. Also I cannot see West Ham rushing Antonio back.

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Rudiger will keep his place for a couple of weeks. Zouma was poor. Silva is suspended. Will monitor the Antonio situation. Planning to get him for 32 which is 10 days from now. If he does not recover DCL stays in my team and Gundo becomes Lingard.

    Wildcard squad - predictable really. Any omissions?

    Mendy
    Shaw Dias Cresswell
    Son Jota Salah Fernandes Lingard
    Iheanacho Kane

    Forster Rudiger Bamford Struijk

    1. RamboRN
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Looks good, any way of fitting taa in by downgrading Bamford?

      1. Fit_to_drop
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Yes, I can downgrade Bamford to a Davis and change Dias to TAA. Was thinking of getting him anyway so this is worth exploring.

    I'm around 140k, nothing to lose. On WC would you:
    A) play safe with Bruno and fodder on bench
    B) spread money around and have a few differential picks (TAA, Alonso etc)

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      B but I would rather drop Salah/Son than Bruno

      1. waltzingmatildas
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Hmm, really? Son can go in 33. So maybe Salah and Son, then Son to Bruno. I don't have the team value to fit them all in.
        Thanks!

    Trying to figure out the WC team, would appreciate some help here:

    Mendy/Forster
    Shaw/X/X/X/X
    Bruno/Son/KDB/Jota/Lingard
    Kane/Nacho/X

    Have like 22.1ITB for the empty spots. Thoughts?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Davis, Coady, Rudiger, Konsa, Mitchell

    2. Atimis
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Should I lose KDB for Salah or other City mid? Or just go with no City at all?

    aubameyang is just not right is he,if arteta drops him it makes lacazette a focal point and on pennos 8.2 interests me,sheff,FUL,EVE,new,WBA,mmm

  27. KAALI_DAAL

    Have exact money to swap Gundo with Lingardinho.

    Do it?

    In middle of wildcard headache and just interested to hear some thoughts on the best option?

    A. Schmeichel, Shaw, Dawson, Neto, Vardy
    *Would involve looking to get TAA in week 33.

    B. Mendy, TAA, Castagne, Maddison, Iheanacho

    C. Schmeichel, TAA, Shaw, Maddison, Iheanacho

    XX Forster
    XX XX Coady Rudiger Holding
    Salah Fernandes Son Jota XX
    Kane XX Davis

      Triple LEI, love it! B looks great to me, it's a shame Castagne hasn't put up any attacking numbers lately for that price tag. Got all his 4 attacking returns in gw 1-3 I believe

      1. Blue&White85
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks. I think the fixtures are too good to ignore, especially with them out of Europe. I'm just a bit worried about Iheanacho's place in team, he could easily be taken out.

        1. Whazza
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          Hear, hear. He won't lose his place if he keeps scoring. If he doesn't score we will transfer him out anyway 🙂

      C) edges it slightly over B for me

      A is no from me

      1. Blue&White85
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks. What is it about A in particular you don't like?

  29. Thomas Jerome Newton

    6 red arrows in a row and dropped from 44k to 162k in that time.
    Not owning Kane seems to have hurt.
    Fantasize that my GW31 wildcard going to get me back on the right track.
    With Arsenal having great fixtures for the remainder, why aren't people suggesting Lacazette? Not seen much mention of him.

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Not getting regular starts I guess

    2. Jordan.

      timing,lol

      1. Thomas Jerome Newton
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Yep. Now seeing a few people talking about Lacazette 🙂

  30. KirkhamWesham
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Lacazette or Bamford?
