Is Sessegnon all that?

Post by buttonphobic »

See Sessegnon is owned by 16% yet I'm not convinced. Keep reading that he's being used as a left full back and that this was his position last year until they got Targett in on loan which meant Sess could then be pushed further forward on the left. I see Fulham have put a bid in for Targett, but Southampton are standing their ground.
Also I'm wondering whether Schurrle plays on the left and if so whether his acquisition makes it more likely Sess will be in defence!

No, he's not really all that... I noticed the same ownership stat at the weekend and had a rye smile to myself!

I have seen him play a number of times for Fulham against Reading and he's been nothing special - the most recent a pre-season friendly a couple of weeks ago but previously in the season before last when he was more defensive and I've yet to see him perform to his billed ability and he doesn't live up to the hype (wasn't he expected to be a surprise inclusion in the England World Cup team?)

The 2nd most overrated player on the planet after Jack Wilshere.

doesnt matter whether he's all that or not. What matters is whether he will contribute to Fulhams goals and/or assists. If he does you are going to want him in ur team

And if he does, then I'll transfer him in. Just think there are others for a similar price that are more likely to assist/score at the present time.

I'd be more interested if he were listed as a defender, and I think he will probably play some games at LB. Could have been a bit like Bale's breakthrough season.

From a fantasy football point of view he's just too expensive for me for a player playing for a team likely to finish bottom half, and when there's players like Jota who are significantly cheaper in the same position. I'm just not seeing the value in him at 3.8m. I tend to avoid players in that price range generally anyway, normally loading my midfield with players from the top end and then enablers from the low end, and Sessegnon is neither.

Priced the same as Bellerin Robertson Trippier etc

I know who I’d prefer
