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.

    I wish there were a few more exciting games tonight. Hoping for a Hull 0-0 Sunderland is going to be a boring night.

    Bench one out of Bellerin(qpr) Clyne(CRY) Terry(WHM) Van aanholt(hull)
    keeper is foster

    1. Black Knights
      • 12 Years

      PVA.

    2. d1sable
      • Has Moderation Rights
      9 years, 3 months ago

      PVA easily

    3. Vernon Anita-Dobson
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      PVA for me

    4. don parcheesi
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I came on to see opinions on the PVA vs. Bellerin question, too. I currently have PVA on the bench... looks like the rest agree. Good stuff.

  4. liberalfamilia
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    currently on Kane, Aguero, and Giroud.

    if i'm chasing the lead, should i stick with it or use my 1FT to do Giroud > Austin?

    1. d1sable
      • Has Moderation Rights
      9 years, 3 months ago

      If its for free i would def do Giroud -> Austin

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

      If Austin keeps quiet then Giroud could become a very nice differential this week.

  5. LewanGOALski
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Ozil or Sterling ?

    1. SPorting
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Özil

    2. Woy of the Wovers
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Probably the goggle-eyed one.

    3. The Gambler.
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Tough one. Is Ozil really nailed? Raheem is. And is cheaper.

    4. Vernon Anita-Dobson
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Sterling personally

  6. Mak_Gold
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Sell Sanchez or Cazorla?

      1. SPorting
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Caz

    • Essan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Just to quash this rumours about a possible postponement of the QPR v Spurs game - the Tube strike in support of drunk drivers doesn't start until 9.30pm. So it won't affect the game at all.

      1. SPorting
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Cheers!

        It's also a London v London game. Can't they just get the bus/walk?

        1. SPorting
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          What about their jellied eels and pie n mash? How they gonna carry that, eh? EH?

    • Whazza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Any reason why Willian is not in the predicted line-up?

      1. The Gambler.
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Not expected to start. Rotation.

    • Richd
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      It's funny. My team is so set, as are most of yours.

      It then becomes tempting to pop in a punty hit. E.g Rose for Trippier.

      1. SPorting
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Meh. I already have Rose thanks.

        1. Richd
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          You could double up on Spurs defence out of boredom?

          1. SPorting
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Bored of getting green arrows?

        The shorter players are wearing gloves.

      2. Moin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        White are the ones gonna start and Green on the bench...

        1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          caz, sanchez , mert, bellerin, ozil , coquelin, ramsey all benched then

          🙁

        2. HuttonDressedasLahm
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Alexis has white, then green

      3. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Cazorla rested?

      4. HuttonDressedasLahm
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Err, no.
        Looks like different trials

        1. FPL Daniel
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Ramsey starts Walcott and Welbeck on the bench according to this.

          Cazorla and Alexis also start

      5. SMOOTH
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Who are the guys starting in picture 10

    • kirwy
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Foster
      Dawson, Kosc, Terry
      Hazard, Sanchez, Eriksen, Silva
      Aguero, Kanec(C), Austin

      Bench: Wollscheid, Cork, Naughton

      0.0M
      0FT

      Anything worth a hit here? GTG?

      1. kirwy
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Kane*

    • Vernon Anita-Dobson
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Final draft of WC for tonight, any final thoughts???

      Ospina 4.0

      Ivanovic Aulderweireld Rose Dawson Yun

      Hazard Sterling Sanchez Erikk Cork

      Austin Kane Aguero

      I’ve kept enough in the bank to swop Eriksson out for Ozil next week

      1. kirwy
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Personally I would ditch Sanchez on WC if getting Özil next week.

        1. S.Kuqi
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          This. Özil over Sanchez atm.

        2. Vernon Anita-Dobson
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          i did intially but i just cant bring myself to do it, surely he cant go on blanking like this!

      2. The Gambler.
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Risky going with a 4.0 gk at this point in the season.

        1. S.Kuqi
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Has worked for me last 3 years but starting gk has to be 100% nailed.

      3. The Gambler.
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Just put Ozil in, instead of Alexis

        1. Ruth_NZ
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          This.

          Plus fiddle around so you can do Austin to Costa next week. Eriksen can be kept for 5-6 weeks.

      4. Mowgli
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I'm on a WC too, struggling to decide whether to keep Sanchez or switch to Ozil.

        With the extra cash you could do Toby > Bertrand. And then do Sterling to Silva next week for City's run of games.

        1. Vernon Anita-Dobson
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          City option is inteuging, cant go silva as im chasing and my rival owns him, maybe yaya as a big time differential

          1. Mowgli
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            IMO I'd stick with sterling over yaya, he's looks so much more liekly to get the points!

            But still stuck with the question.. Sanchez or Ozil. Ozil or Sanchez, argh!!

    • OptimusBlack
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Which is better ?

      A- Play Janmmat v.s MUN (H)

      B- Wisdom > Rose SWA (H), QPR (A) & Bench Janmmat

      B for - 4 pts

      Already Done .... Downing & Defoe > Eriksen & Austin

    • Kerz
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Who would you rather keep, Giroud or Cazorla?

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Cazorla

      2. The Gambler.
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Giroud

      3. don parcheesi
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Tough to compare across positions without knowing who's coming in, but I'd be more reluctant to sell Giroud.

    • Pinky and Brain
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Play Panti or Foster?
      Have already Dawson in starting 11

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Foster

    • Littlebitwizardoföz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Is (a) Giroud -> Austin or (b) Mane -> Eriksen a better transfer? And is it worth -4 to get both?

      1. Moin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        None are better

        1. Littlebitwizardoföz
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Why?

    • FPL FREAK
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Is Yoshida going to start.....??

    • CelticBhoy1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Start McShane or PvA?

      1. CelticBhoy1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Or Jones, who's apparently fit

    • Gazza2000
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Play Dawson (avl) or Bellerin (qpr) ?

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Dawson.

        1. Gazza2000
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Cheers

    • Harvey Specter
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Irrelevant, but does anyone know if there will be a season 4 of house of cards?

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Just started watching first season. Focking love it!

      2. Now I'm Panicking
        • 9 Years

        TBC, though likely - series 4 may be the last though

      3. liberalfamilia
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        i bet it will, though it's probably gonna be the last season due to 52 cards on the deck.

    • Emp

      drop sanchez or sterling for eriksen? rose or walker or vert?

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Sanchez
        Vert

        1. Emp
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years

          ta

    • FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      The plan.

      This week Santi and Alexis out Sterling and Silva in for 12pt hit

      Next week Moses out Ozil in

      No Arsenal this week but more City and Liv and bring back Arsenal cover next week with Ozil..

      Thoughts...?

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        It is 12pt hit. Already made 4 pt hit for all the double GW players but those are 2pt hit and I am willing to try them

        1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          which dgw you have?

      2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        could work

        1. FPL Daniel
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          I think it could. Also I have good spread of teams. I only need Arsenal to blank @QPR

      3. SPorting
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I think you haven't thought this through.

      • 9 Years

      A) Lloris and Walker

      B) Forster and Vertonghen

      4. don parcheesi
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        A

    • Lanley Staurel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Can't decide who to exclude from my UFPL squad....Rooney or Giroud. I already have Kane and Kun who are nailed on and Pelle plays tonight so in order to manage the optimum places on my bench I have to sacrifice one of Rooney or Giroud OR I ditch both and play Zamora.

      This will make no sense to anyone unless you play UFPL! 🙁

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Rooney

        1. Lanley Staurel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          That is whom I'm currently ditching. Now I'm hearing talk of Giroud not starting which is rattling me a bit.

      2. Hamstergod
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Probably Giroud, Newcastle have a porous defense and Rooney seems to be getting into some kind of form

        1. Lanley Staurel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          This also worries me. Is Rooney now on a run of form with LVG realising he needs to be play him up top.

          1. Hamstergod
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            I think he will have to if he wants points.

            I have an even bigger issue than you Austin and Kane up front and Rooney/Costa/Aguero as third, although it's pretty obvious Aguero will take it, but I really hope I don't miss out on a big haul from the other two.

            1. Lanley Staurel
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              That's difficult. No point putting more than 1 striker on the bench as you won't play them and you lose the slots for defenders and mids for match day 2. Really hard to decide.

              1. Hamstergod
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 11 Years

                yeah 🙁

                in any case, best of luck with UFPL 🙂

                I really started to enjoy it this season, the trial one was a bit on and off, but now it's more fun, I only wish the loan system was less punishing.

      I`m going with Eriksen C. I feel I can afford this, because Rooney was my captain last gw.

      Eriksen for captain - differential #more fun

      Foster (Panti)
      Bertrand Bellerin Wolly (Shaw Dawson)
      Hazard Sanchez Walcott Eriksen (Wardeprowse)
      Aguero Kane Defoe

      1ft, any suggestion?

      I'm 0.1m off doing Defoe > Austin and Wally > Silva (-4)

      thanks all.

      Sorry for Repost

      Which is better ???

      A- Play Janmmat v.s MUN (H)

      B- Wisdom > Rose SWA (H), QPR (A) & Bench Janmmat

      B for - 4 pts

      Already Done .... Downing & Defoe > Eriksen & Austin

      If you had an option to take a £0.4m budget hit rather than a -4 point hit, would you take it?

        Totally depends on your forward planning. Will you need the 0.4?

        If you have a wildcard left I'd take the -4 I think. Budget is very helpful when wildcarding.

      What do you guys think about Clyne -> Rose FT???

      Soton might concede tonight and it's Chelsea away after that. Also, Rose -> Toby would be an easy transfer in near future. Thoughts?

        Not for me

        Yeah why not. The side potential is far higher than the downside.

        Nah, keep Clyne, think he will outscore Rose this GW

      4. Raddy

        i wouldn't, Cylne is one of the best defenders in the game to have. Especially if you got him cheap.

        Rose will play only one of the games IMO

        Clyne's fixtures are great apart from Chelsea. Bp magnet and consistently good.

        Cheers guys, I must say it's tempting since Rose has good fixtures too and Toby is so cheap.
