Scout Notes

Is now the time to sell Everton’s value-for-money FPL midfielders?

We continue our Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Gameweek 9 Scout Notes with analysis of Everton v Watford.

For a briefer summary of all six of Saturday’s games, click here, while the footer at the bottom of this piece will direct you to our detailed Scout Notes on the other Gameweek 9 action.

EVERTON 2-5 WATFORD

  • Goals: Tom Davies (£4.9m), Richarlison (£7.4m) | Joshua King (£5.5m) x3, Juraj Kucka (£5.5m), Emmanuel Dennis (£5.2m)
  • Assists: Demarai Gray (£5.8m), Michael Keane (£5.0m) | Craig Cathcart (£4.4m), Cucho Hernandez (£5.0m), Dennis x2, Joao Pedro (£5.4m)
  • Bonus: King x3, Dennis x2, Keane x1

BENITEZ’S HONEYMOON OVER?

Everton’s attacking assets have offered us some excellent value for money this season but we might be reaching the jumping-off point for Andros Townsend (£5.7m) and co, not just because of Saturday’s freak 5-2 loss to Watford.

Depending on your view of the backlines of Wolverhampton Wanderers and Tottenham Hotspur, the Toffees’ favourable fixture run has, or soon will, come to an end.

Rafael Benitez’s troops sit bottom of our Season Ticker for fixture difficulty from Gameweeks 10-18, meeting all bar Manchester United of the ‘big six’ plus Leicester City and Brentford.

Demarai Gray (£5.8m) still found a way to deliver his fifth attacking return of the season with his assist for Everton’s opener but it was a largely lethargic offensive display for the third home match running, with injuries perhaps finally catching up with the blue half of Merseyside.

Salomon Rondon (£6.0m) yet again flattered to deceive in the absence of Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£8.0m), while Abdoulaye Doucoure‘s (£5.8m) first no-show of 2021/22 was felt at both ends of the pitch.

Yerry Mina (£4.9m) was arguably the biggest loss, as the out-of-sorts Michael Keane (£5.0m) and Ben Godfrey (£4.8m) served up a horror show at the back.

“Today was not about [the injured players], we had enough quality on the pitch to win – and we were winning. It is up to us to manage the situation and improve that. Some players were a little bit tired but it doesn’t matter, it is not an excuse. We have to be better – especially when you are in control of the game. You can’t make the mistakes we made.” – Rafael Benitez

While Gray, Townsend and Doucoure have been success stories in Benitez’s traditionally strong start at a new club, Lucas Digne (£5.3m) has arguably been the biggest FPL flop of the campaign: the France international averages under 1.9 points per match after a ticker-topping opening nine Gameweeks.

A positive was the goalscoring return of substitute Richarlison (£7.4m), at least, with the Brazilian’s comeback presumably now meaning that Townsend’s stint as penalty-taker has come to an end.

KING LEADS THE LINE FOR NEW-LOOK WATFORD

After seeing his new charges thrashed by Liverpool last weekend, Claudio Ranieri had a full week of training with his Watford squad and set his side up in a 4-3-3, following the disastrous wing-back experiment of Gameweek 8.

Ismaila Sarr (£6.3m) was back in the right-wing role that seems to suit him best but somehow he missed out on any attacking return after a rare off-day and early substitution, leaving a quartet of sub-£6.0m forwards to do the damage.

Emmanuel Dennis (£5.2m) hadn’t even started the game but replaced Sarr to bank three attacking returns and move up to sixth in the FPL forwards’ points table, while the corner-taking Cucho Hernandez (£5.0m) – again preferred on the left flank – and substitute Joao Pedro (£5.4m) each chipped in with an assist apiece.

Star of the show, though, was Joshua King (£5.5m).

Deployed in the middle of the front three, King racked up a total of four big chances and an expected goal involvement (xGI) figure of 2.13, totals beaten by only Christian Benteke (£6.3m) in the Gameweek just gone.

“For a striker it is confidence. I had a horrible season last season. Any striker when you start scoring gets confidence.” – Joshua King

The Norwegian has now quietly amassed six attacking returns in his last four appearances for the Hornets, although like Everton, King and his teammates languish at the wrong end of the Season Ticker over the next six matches: they’re probably a ‘hold but don’t buy’ for Gameweek 10, after which comes a particularly nasty set of five games:

The good news for owners of Armando Broja (£5.0m) et al ahead of next Saturday was that, despite an improved defensive showing, the Watford backline still managed to concede twice to a below-par Everton; that makes it nine Premier League matches without a clean sheet for the Hornets.

Dennis will miss that match against the Saints, meanwhile, having collected his fifth booking of the campaign.


Everton XI (4-4-1-1): Pickford, Coleman, Keane, Godfrey, Digne, Townsend, Davies, Allan, Gordon (Richarlison 60). Gray (Iwobi 77), Rondon.

Watford XI (4-3-3): Foster, Ngakia (Nkoulou 76), Troost-Ekong, Cathcart, Masina, Tufan (Pedro 64), Sissoko, Kucka, Sarr (Dennis 64), King, Hernandez.

    Have both Vardy and Gray, wanted to upgrade Gray this week but with Vardy a doubt i'm even debating taking a -4?

    Vardy & Gray > Foden & Auba?

    1. Kodap
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Or just move Gray on to someone like Mount, Raph or Bernado.

    2. caldracula

      I'd probably save unless you get injury news.

    2. Eze Really?

      Out: Raph Mbeumo Vardy
      Wait until injury pressers

        Cheers! Azpi -> RJames might be interresting, but a bit sideways.
        Will ofc wait for pressers.

        Looking to get Son / Kane from GW12, but I have to free up cash somewhere to be able to do it

    Was thinking of doing Benrahma/Raphinha to Mount or Jota or hold? Don't have enough money for Foden.

    Thanks!

    1. I SPEAK ENGELS AND DRINK GI…
      • 4 Years

    If Utd are as bad vs Spurs as they were against Liverpool, and Kane looks bad, I will be very tempted to admit getting him was a mistake, and reverse the transfer

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Reverse it to who?

      1. internal error
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        reverse the wrong word. Its reversing my mistake. I own Jimmy, and Antonio so would be Toney or Broja then use the cash in midfield

            • 11 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Even my wife congratulated me. As you don’t know her just trust me, it was weird. I sort of stammered out a thank you.
            Amazing when you’ve sold Shaw and Ronaldo on wild card and have Salah cap and TAA too. Just icing on top of the jizz.

  11. andre_c
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Surely chilwell doesn't score 4 games in a row. Had him in game week 7 but sold on wildcard for Azpi. Annoying when your differential player does extremely well and doesn't become a differential anymore. Bottomed

  12. Amartey Partey
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Who would you rather have?

    A. Duffy and Mount
    B. James and Smith-Rowe

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years

      B

    2. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Livra and mount

      1. Amartey Partey
        • 4 Years

        Already got Livramento

        1. The FPL Units

  13. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Weird and rare to be very happy with my squad after a huge red arrow but here I am.

    Duffy > Chilwell done early.

    Ramsdale Foster
    TAA Cancelo Chilwell James Livra
    Salah Foden Raphinha Mbeumo Brownhill
    Kane Antonio Toney

    Currently benching Mbeumo, Livra, Brownhill.

    I'm debating two things.

    1. Raphinha > Bernardo -4. A bit crazy but Bernardo looks quite a decent pick at 7.0m. He's practically undroppable on current form.
    2. Bench boost. Foster (SOU), Mbeumo (bur), Livra (wat), Brownhill (BRE). This is not a bad looking bench boost this week imo. All cheap budget-y guys with good fixtures.

    Obviously I'm waiting on Mbeumo and Raph injury news but I have good squad depth and if Livra comes on it's not a bad thing at all.

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Either of those two plays worth doing?

      1. The FPL Units
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I like 1 if Raph out.

      2. internal error
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        i'd stick. Bernardo ceiling is quite low compared to another mids. It also blocks you from a third city player. If for some reason, Jesus becomes nailed etc

    2. andre_c
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      nice team, i reckon hold transfer

    3. Scooby75
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Favour 1 if Raph out, nice differential in Bernardo.
      BB always more fun in DGW.

    4. Forgetmeknot
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I have the same squad as you except for I have azpi, mount, Jimenez and vardy instead of your James, foden toney and Kane.

      FWIW, neither 1 or 2 would appeal to me.

      Out of interest are you planning on playing Ramsdale or Foster this weekend?

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Ramsdale. I'm not rotating keepers. Decisions are tough enough as is. Also, Watford defense still looks really ropey.

    5. TJ
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Good BB if everyone fit

      1. Sun God Nika
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        save bb for a double GW

        1. Camzy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          My experience with BB'ing in DGWs has not been good tbh. The whole point is that you have like 12+ players with doubles but it almost never works out that way due to injuries or random things and you end up having like 11 key players and 3 players with SGWs on your BB anyway.

          1. AC/DC AFC
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            This. Or worse and someone misses both games on the dgw and you've lost a replacement anyhow.

            I'd BB if all look fit.

    6. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      bench boost is tricky with rotation risked players in your starting 11. Your bench may do well, but would any way have been auto subbed in for your City & Chelsea non show players and your late injury withdrawal of one random player.

      That is why bench boosting in a double game week is so much better.

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I guess.

        But BB in DGW always have a few SGW players.

        It just might be guys like Son, Antonio and your fodders are the ones with the doubles.

        1. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          in a double it reduces the odds because more players are playing twice.

          This week you could effectively be boosting zero points from any of Cancelo Chilwell James Foden or an injured Raphinha & Mbeumo … but of course they all might start and your bench would be gravy 😉

    7. shiraz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      have been toying with the idea of getting bernardo for awhile. Seem nailed and decent returns with assists and occasional goals. So I would fancy option 1.

      As for bb, mid table clashes are kinda boring to do it imo.

    Scoutcast tonight at 20:00!

    A new look line up is planned, with Ted taking the reigns from an on-holiday Joe.

    He'll be joined by Seb and a certain David Munday, making a triumphant appearance back to FFS and the Scoutcast.

    What are your burning questions for the trio?

    1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      What is the optimum front 3 right now????!! And if your doubling up on Chelsea defence, is Rudiger and Chillwell the smart move??! Or can you go really Maverick and have Chilwell and James!?? Or is that too risky??!!

    2. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Is having all of:

      Rjames Foden Jota Ok if 3 decent bench options available?

    3. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Is Bernardo a cheaper alternative to Foden or just double up on them?

    4. Superflymonk
      • 9 Years

      Will anyone have the guts to captain anyone else apart from Salah this season?

    5. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      It’s been asked before, but is it now a genuine reality that 4 at the back is the way to go. I ask as I am beginning to get the feeling that 5 at the back is now creeping on to the radar.
      If you play say: TAA, Chilwell, Cancelo, Livramento, that means that there’s a genuine strategy to find a fifth. They’re all just so cheap in comparison to players with similar or even lower scores. Especially as now there’s only one captain choice each week.

      1. Drexl Spivey
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Prioritising this myself.

      2. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Livra, as good as he is will be the 5th defender. We just don't really need the money atm so when things change be prepared to move back to 4 or 3 at the back. Easy to unbalance the side.

    6. Sterling Archer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Currently sitting with double city defence, Dias and Cancelo

      would you swap Dias for Chillwell?

    7. Rossendale Rover
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Should we now start to take Palace seriously and who should we be looking at for their plum GW 11-15 fixtures?

    8. M Heaney
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      What should we do with Kane is he any good, and who is the best cheap forward. Thanks for answering this important question. Mike.

    9. Make Arrows Green Again
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Important question: Is Seb as much of a nice chap as he sounds on the podcast or is it all an elaborate act?

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights

    10. im1974
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      With Liverpool looking imperious is it time for a Salah & Mane double up ?

    11. corderz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Best midfield on wildcard if playing 3-5-2

    12. Lemonhead
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      As Salah is the only premium who is in form right now and arguably perma-captain for a while, should we drop to one premium and spread the funds? Or keep the team structure and accept some blanks so we can easily get to another premium when fixtures/form changes? Would be interested in hearing opinions.

    13. wayne50
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Bring in Foden or Mount?

      Which budget forward is the way to go over the next couple of weeks? Adam Armstrong seems to be out of the equasion after just a cameo in the last 2 games.

      Which defensive Chelsea asset is the best over the next weeks? Are Rüdiger and Chillwell the only reasonable options?

    16. Eh, just one more thing ...
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Go without a premium forward and fatten up the squad over the next few weeks given the spate of injuries of late, potential COVID uptick and next fixture swings … could be a long winter?

    Who will score more in GW10:
    A. KDB + Greenwood + Dallas
    B. KDB + Azpi + Raphinha/Allan
    C. Foden + Azpi + Greenwood
    (Repeat with a change)

    1. sfsfsfe
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      B imo

      1. Scooby75
        • 4 Years

        C

    2. The FPL Units

      C

    2 years, 5 months ago

    I don't know why but it feels like when everyone is rushing to get in chillwell and mount they'll get rested against Southampton...
    I just have this strange feeling that Tuchel will start a team kinda like this one

    Mendy
    Chalobah-Azpi-Christensen
    James-Saul-RLC-Alonso
    Zyiech-Havertz-CHO

    1. Forgetmeknot
      • 5 Years

      Soton tonight is cup - league is Saturday vs newc

    2. OLD Rafiki
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      have white and Raph to cover that risk.

  17. Atimis
    • 7 Years

    Should we receive some more definite info on Raph today?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      he will probably say something about evolution and move on

      1. sovietrockettes
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Evolution would mean sell

    2. sovietrockettes
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Bielsa is typically brutally honest

  18. De Gea is GOAT
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Have exact cash for

    Raphinha/Azpi TO Chilwell/Foden -4.

    Do it?

    Can some please confirm whens the next price rise? Thanks guys

    1. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      If Raph is out, I really like the two youre bringing in. Good long term as well as short term transfers

    2. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Next price rise will be 2.30am mate

    3. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      just do it and enjoy life and forget what random people on the internet tell you 🙂

    4. De Gea is GOAT
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Thanks legends! I think ill pull the trigger 🙂

    5. shiraz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      good move, if you really want to get foden.

      I have raphinha, and want to wait for more news. But that is just me.

      1. De Gea is GOAT
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Part of me wants to wait but might be too late by the time we get news due to price rise.. Raph has been very frustrating to own.

  19. Stranger Mings
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    If Vardy out is Jesus next best option?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Jesus/Aubameyang or upgrade to Kane

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Ok thanks. Planning on getting Vardy in WC it fit by Jesus does allow upgrades elsewhere

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      He’s a good option if you want to keep it expensive. What if you were to ignore price?

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Already going hwang and Antonio so other option is Borja at 5m then guess could have 5 premium midfielders inc son

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Ah ok. I’d probably go with Jesus.

          1. Stranger Mings
            • 3 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Ok cheers just waiting Vardy news

    3. sfsfsfe
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I like the look of Jimi. Then again Hwans price is har du argue against

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Yeh hwang such good value

    4. Esalman
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Wilson imo.

  20. OLD Rafiki
    • 3 Years

    the amount of trust I have in king to haul again cannot be explained...

  21. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Foden in was so 2 weeks ago.

    1. drughi
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      He could be a season keeper I feel

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        He is for me. I have been waiting all season to see him get some minutes and show just a flash of confidence before getting him in as I see him as the main man now.
        In fact I haven’t just been waiting all season but rather a couple of years for this. Surprised many more didn’t spot it.

  22. DavvaMC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Do you think Reece James price will go up tonight, don't wont to be priced out.

    Thanks

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Doubt it since it’s a Tuesday.

  23. drughi
    • 14 Years

    Foden rise in price my son, riiiiise

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah, lure them to quickly get him before they change their mind.

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I hope he will but doubt it.

      Noooo, besmirch a curse on all owners

  24. Eze Really?
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    My partners team on WC?
    Sanchez Foster
    Chilwell Cancelo TAA Livramento RJames
    Foden Salah ESR Mount Tielemans
    Iheanacho Toney Antonio
    1 mil ITB
    She is saving Antonio to Braja and Tielemans to Son when prices rise and drop.
    Nice comments appreciated or i will have to kill you! (smile)

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      should have scored well last week 😉

      1. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        She made 32 points in changes but got 104 points anyway.

    2. Esalman
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Way better than my partner's team lol.

      1. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        What do you mean. Its better than mine LOL

    3. sfsfsfe
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      What formation does she intend on using? Feels like she'll have quite the heachache with the benching options...

      1. sfsfsfe
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        for example, her lineup could be:
        Sanchez
        TAA-Cancelo-Chillwell-James
        Foden-salah-Mount-tielemans
        Antonio-Iheanacho

        A pretty expensive bench...
        Foster- Livramento-ESR-Tooney

        1. Eze Really?
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          All I told her is if she wants the 2 Chelski defenders she needs a good bench.

        2. Eze Really?
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          See the changes she make with price changes. She will have Braja.

    4. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Front 8 looks like an issue to me. Not quality wise, but benching headache. pretty much same issue for defense.

      1. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Braja I think will be on the bench

      2. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        You have similar views to mine. Play Rjames and Chilwell all the time and expect one of them not to play I presume if she even thought of this. Believe you me she can play the game though. She is 95k atm and only using the WC now.

  25. shiraz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Gray + CR7 > Son + Wilson/Richarlison for -4, or roll it till next wk

    my front 8:

    Salah Raphinha Sarr Gray Allan
    Antonio Jimenez CR7

  26. LiamK17
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    What are people doing with Adam Armstrong? With Broja scoring 2 in 2 I cannot see him getting dropped and I don’t have any money in the back to go to a Toney

    Any low priced strikers worth getting or take a -4 and downgrade Saka to upgrade Army

    1. shiraz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      low priced as in 5.0 range? i would say broja or hwang for armstrong

    2. Ligdon
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Could easily just upgrade to Broja..

  27. sovietrockettes

    This is what my team will look like in GW 12 (i) with 3 FTs:

    Ramsdale Foster
    TAA Cancelo Dias James Livra
    Salah Son Foden Mbeumo ESR
    Antonio Toney Hwang

    GW10: (Assume Vardy fit) Armstrong>Toney
    GW11: Roll
    GW12: Vardy>Hwang, Brownhill>Son

    1. shiraz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      good to plan and use it for reference. what I have learned is with injuries and all, nothing will go as planned.

      But overall, solid team for gw 12 if all goes well

  28. mad_beer ✅
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Which do you think is better on a FT.

    A. Mbeumo
    B. Tielemans

    1. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Mbeumo if fit. I cant see Youri scoring worldies every week

    2. shiraz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      B

  29. Babit1967
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Guys, how does this look

    Lukaku & Mbeumo

    To

    Jesus & Son for a -4?

    1. shiraz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      not jesus, better option out there than him, and not for a hit

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Selling Mbeumo when he has bur NOR new is not gonna happen for me unless he gets ruled out long term.

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I’m getting Mbuemo in.
