Mondogoal Gameweek 28 – Compete for £30,000

Our quest for a spot in Mondogoal’s £30,000 World Championship tournament continues as the weekend saw another six spots sealed for the final day contest.

The FFS XI garnered a respectable 90.62 points but was left floundering by some fierce competition as fscottl sealed his second qualifying place in the tournament via an impressive 115.2-point tally.

Unperturbed by that miss, you can read on for our picks for the midweek Gameweek, as we bid for another qualifying spot. Before that, let’s take a look at how the big prize money contest works…

How Does it Work?

In the final Gameweek of the season, Mondogoal will crown their first World Champion and they will go away with a huge £10,000 top prize.

So far, 40 qualifiers have gone forward to the final Gameweek contest, with 130 places still up for grabs. To qualify, you need to win one of Mondogoal’s £30k qualifying contests – you can enter these for just £2.

How Do I Enter?

Mondogoal are running three more qualifying contests for the midweek Gameweek. You still have until 7.35pm tonight to select you lineup for either the £2, £10 or £50 contests.

Bear in mind, the more you stake, the more chance you have of making it through, with just 22 teams competing in the £10 contest and only five duking it out in the high-rolling £50 competition.

If you’re consistent with your picks you may even be able to progress with more than one team – you can have up to ten entries in the Championship final come May.

Don’t forget, you can enter multiple contests with the same Mondogoal lineup with the click of a button. Once you’ve created your squad for one contest, go to your list of entries, click on a contest and then click “Enter This Lineup in Other Contests”.

Last week, FFScout fan “Eliminos” won the signed West Ham jersey by backing the Newcastle defence against Aston Villa.  Click here to see his full winning team. He found out about Mondogoal recently through FFS and has since turned his £10 deposit into £71 and a signed jersey.  Every fixture for the rest of the season you’ll be able to win signed West Ham United shirts, footballs, and match tickets. This week you can win tickets to see West Ham United versus Sunderland on March 21 for just £1.

FF Scout Gameweek 28 Picks

mg
We’re going all out on goals from two heavy-hitters up front. With City desperate for a win, we have to back Sergio Aguero, despite the heft of his 16.8 million price tag. Liverpool’s Daniel Sturridge comes a tad cheaper at just 11.6 million – due mainly to his stalled return to the starting lineup following injury. We reckon he’ll be unleashed from the start against Burnley and with the Clarets keeping just one away shut-out all term, we’re expecting goals for a buoyant Liverpool. That pairing are partnered with Hull City’s Dame N’Doye – he was rested at Stoke with Tuesday’s clash with Sunderland in mind and we reckon he’ll return to goal scoring form to warrant the modest 7.9 million outlay.

The Tigers also form the foundation of our defence, with keeper Allan McGregor and revived centre-back, Paul McShane, coupled up with the Liverpool pairing of Alberto Moreno and another player enjoying a renaissance – Dejan Lovren.

The midfield includes a pair of real gambles that we hope will prove major differentials. With injuries biting, we’re backing both Charlie Adam and Stephane Sessegnon to start for Stoke and West Brom respectively – we’re not expecting too many goals in their fixtures but both pack a threat and aren’t shy of reining in efforts on goal. Tottenham’s Christian Eriksen and Southampton’s Sadio Mane offer the midfield a more assured look – we just hope, along with thousands of Fantasy managers, that Eriksen turns up and produces the goods against Swansea.

A reminder that Mondogoal lineups can be tweaked up to ten minutes before the first kick-off, so we can all benefit form the teamsheets prior to tonight’s three kick-offs – that will give us the chance to swap out that Sessegnon gamble.

You’ll find our XI in the £2 Qualifying Contest for the Mondogoal £30k World Championship. We’ve also got an entry in the £5 contest offering a £1000 prize pot and, as mentioned above, the special contest that offers tickets for a forthcoming fixture at Mondogoal partners, West Ham. Come and take us on!

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Wow just looking at the remaining fixtures United could be in big trouble. Still have SPURS, liverpool, CITY, chelsea, everton and ARSENAL to go.
    Wonder what crap LVG will spout if they don't make top 4

      They are good against the big sides and they grind out results against the crap teams

        they'd be first if so.. i think their whole season has been a World of Warcraft season.. ie a grindfest

      "I am disappointed at not finishing in the top 4".

      That's my guess.

        That was Nigel Farage.

          • 9 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          No, that's a misquote. "European revenues are not essential for our finances" was what Farage said. 😉

      Bigger transfer budget needed.

    Mane must go out: Yay or Nay?

    1. Breadbin
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Not a must.

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

        Just want to get Eriksen in. Mane out looks like the most obvious move but ruins the balance of the team.

        Maybe will just do Silva -> Eriksen and keep Mane

    2. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Why Must Mane go out?

      btw where do you stay in India?

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

        Moved to Blr from Kolkata 3 months back. You live in Delhi, right 😉 ?

        About Mane, well, Southampton not scoring and Chelsea next

        1. Moin
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          But overall Mane has decent fixtures..yes the form is not their but removing him not worth a hit...and I asked because good you can eat Beef 😉

          1. Moin
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years

      He always starts.

      1. andy85wsm
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        1. DOG GOD IT - KEANE 15

      1. DOG GOD IT - KEANE 15
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Worried he might be benched since mour mentioned resting some players after the cup game, and chelski have a sizable lead, and haz hasnt been rested since i dunno when ...

  12. Henry Hill
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    If PVA and Wisdom are both not starting tonight I am likely playing with 10 so may take a hit and get Vertonghen in for Wisdom, what do people think? Cheers

    Foster
    Terry Clyne van Aanholt
    Sánchez Hazard Mané Eriksen
    Agüero Austin Kane

    Myhill Boyd Wisdom Haidara

    1. Black Knights
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah do Wisdom as he is more certain not to start again.

    2. Cristi@no R7
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Get Wisdom Out

      1. Henry Hill
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks chaps, yes he has to go sooner rather than alter.

  13. jacksonbarber125
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Austin (2 matches) or Sturridge?

    1. jacksonbarber125
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      This GW^^

    2. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Austin.

    3. Black Knights
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Austin. 2 games, penalties, more minutes.

    4. Carcetti
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Exact same question for me.. I went with Austin.

  14. Hammers Select
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Nearly the business end of the season, after this GW 10 left.

    How many points is achievable to claw back in 10 GWs.

    I call it at 100. If you are more than 100 points behind in your mini league time to realign targets.

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Ain't nobody clawing back 100 points on me.

    2. andy85wsm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Depends on many factors but I wouldn't be liking to chase a 100 point lead at this point.

      A big double gameweek with multiple teams could mix things up.

    3. Mull
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Depends who you're playing. If it's someone who doesn't know about DGWs until they happen then you have a chance.

      1. andy85wsm
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        If you're that far behind someone who doesn't even know about DGWs then you're probably screwed anyway 🙂

    4. Hamstergod
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Depends if you still have a WC or not, if you play it right at the right time I think even 150-200 points is possible, obviously you would have to score pretty well in all of the remaining weeks.

  15. kenzo.
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    If you had to drop one from the starting eleven.....who would it be?
    A. Bellerin (A) v QPR
    B. Kompany (H) v LEI
    C. Terry (A) v WHU
    D. Dawson (A) v Villa

      Caz

  17. Herman Toothrot
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Seeing Mane in the picks above really makes me want to olay him, but who for?

    Hazard, Sanchez, Coutinho, Giroud the candidates.

  18. Mull
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    This might be the easiest captain decision ever. I can't see any reason not to go for Kane.

    1. andy85wsm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'm with you there.

      Funny thing is I'm not that convinced he'll be the top scorer but I can't see any reason to not go for him still. Would hate to be picking among the rest.

      1. Ruth_NZ
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Hedging your bets?

        You have been ardently championing Kane all week and now you're "not convinced he'll be top scorer".

        Sounds like someone preparing to be embarrassed.

    2. Valar(Keith)
      • 14 Years

    Am I missing something, or are Tottenham out of Europe and both cups, and are in with a shout of fourth? If so, why would anyone think he is going to bench Eriksen, his most creative player....?

      Just sheer amount of games in a small space of time.

      You're right though - nothing else to play for but prem now so its unlikely he doesn't start both for me.

    Hey folks. Up to 13k and looking to keep rising with this lot:

    Foster
    HUTTON Bertrand PVA
    Eriksen Hazard Sanchez Di Maria
    Aguero Kane© Giroud

    Subs: Wollscheid Naughton Boyd

    1FT, 1m itb.

    a) Hutton > Rose
    b) Giroud > Austin
    c) both (-4)

    Next week = Di Maria / Erikson > Silva /Ozil

    I really think Giroud will be dropped, and the double looks good for Austin so I am tempted by c). Can anyone talk me in to / out of any of these?

    Thanks, in advance.

        Thanks a lot, pretty sure I will do this. Rose is in form and has the fixtures but could be a rotation risk...one to chew on.

        Cheers, not sure a hit is necessary for a defender

        That could be a good shout, thanks! Can get a bit blindsided by the DGW

    any worthy hits?

    Foster
    Terry - Clyne - Bert
    Caz - Sanchez - Haz - Eriksen
    Kane - Kun - Austin

      Looks good, can't see you needing anything else if you don't fancy a spuds defender
