There are still 26 Qualifying spots available in Mondogoal’s £30,000 World Championship as we build up to the big final day prize.

We’ve seen some new names make the list after recent Qualifying contests, with the likes of “gaztafari” and “StayVibin” earning their places in the final day contest with the chance to win the £10,000 top prize.

Meanwhile, seasoned Mondogoal veterans “taj2722” and “Tm370” have recently claimed their eighth and fourth spots in the contest, respectively. Elsewhere, “Doom”, “Bigo1” and “tomp1900” all lead the way with ten entries.

It’s not too late to claim your place – there are 26 slots remaining with another batch up for grabs in this weekend’s contests.

The £30,000 World Championship

How Does it Work?

To get involved, 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 this weekend. You have until 12.35 on Saturday to select your line-up for either the £2, £10 or £50 contests.

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 line-up with the click of a button.

Having multiple teams will obviously increase your outlay but, with the ability to block out defences, you’ll certainly be increasing your chances of hitting a big score.

Once you’ve created your squad for one contest, go to your list of entries, click on a contest and then click “Enter This Line-up in Other Contests”.

If you’re new to Mondogoal and want the inside skinny, be sure to check out our strategy guide here, and our interview with top Mondogoal manager, ChrisDAFC here.

FF Scout Gameweek 36 Picks

mg

With concerns over Chelsea’s level of motivation and teamsheet, we’ve made the bold decision to overlook their assets and, in particular, Eden Hazard.

Not surprisingly, that liberated plenty of funds to invest elsewhere and we’ve spent the bulk of it up front. Sergio Aguero is a shoo-in, given his current run of form, while Olivier Giroud offers us cover of Arsenal’s vibrant attack ahead of their Monday night meeting with Swansea. Romelu Lukaku is our gamble here – we’ve overlooked Christian Benteke in favour of his Everton compatriot as our differential. Everton have won their last four Goodison match-ups and Lukaku’s lively showing at Villa Park last time out is enough for us to back him against a Sunderland side desperate for victories.

The big spend in attack left us light in the middle of our 3-4-3 setup but, in fairness, the pool of talent looks rather limited this week. We were comfortable shopping in the mid-price bracket, drafting in form guys such as Stoke’s Charlie Adam and Leicester wide man Marc Albrighton. David Silva offers us some heavy-hitter assurance, while Jack Grealish gets the nod to compensate for our decision to overlook Benteke against West Ham.

Clean sheets are hard to call at this stage in the season, so we’ve opted to turn to Grealish’s team-mate, Leonardo Bacuna, to offer us some attacking impetus from Tim Sherwood’s cavalier Villa side. Hector Bellerin and Martin Demichellis were the cheapest assured routes into the Arsenal and City defences, respectively. Similarly, we’ve backed the Everton defence via Tim Howard in nets at just 6.0 million: the Toffees have kept four consecutive home clean sheets going into their meeting with the Black Cats.

A reminder that Everton’s encounter with Sunderland is Saturday’s early kick-off and we’ll be able to tweak our Mondogoal XI’s right up until 12.35.

    Anyone definitively considering Wickham?

    1. Caesar Salahd
      11 years, 6 months ago

      I might, but I need to sell one of Benteke or Kane

    2. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Lots considering. Getting is a different matter

    3. Doolittle
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Considering, but very very far from set on it.

    4. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Considering Vardy --> Wickham then Wickham --> Cisse

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 6 months ago

        Considering similar to this. Next week N'Doye to Wickham then Wickham to Cisse

        1. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
          11 years, 6 months ago

          First you copy my username...... 😛

          Yer, that's a good call. I may get Vardy or Austin back GW38 depending on relegation situation.

          1. FPL Blow-In

            11 years, 6 months ago

            Just noticed your name now 😉
            I have had mine since the seasons beginning excuse you 😆
            May get Tekkers gw 38 too

            1. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
              11 years, 6 months ago

              Ah, you were the original! I'm a mere pretender.

              I've got Tekkers and Kun and keeping both for the "rest" of the season/the last 3 games.

              1. FPL Blow-In
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                11 years, 6 months ago

                I'm sure there are many with it!

                Ya I have neither of them atm il be hiding behind the couch for the city game. My frontline this week:

                Vardy, Ndoye(c), Giroud

                1. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
                  11 years, 6 months ago

                  Are you chasing? Those are bold moves!

                    11 years, 6 months ago

                    Nah mini league is won so just trying to have fun with it now. Sat around the 20k mark. Looking for a bit of excitement!

                    1. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
                      11 years, 6 months ago

                      Fair play!

                      I may do that in last GW, but am at about 8K OR and winning my 2 mini leagues by 60 and 100 points respectively. It's my first season, so I want to do well then can have more fun next year haha. Not that I haven't enjoyed this season!

                      1. FPL Blow-In
                        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                        11 years, 6 months ago

                        That's great going good job. You have those leagues won now anyway!

                        11 years, 6 months ago

                        You reckon? Even with DGW to come?

                      3. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
                        11 years, 6 months ago

                        Whoops, reply fail.

                        You reckon? Even with DGW to come?

    5. Transient Anus

      "definitively considering" lol

      1. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
        11 years, 6 months ago

        I've been indefinitely considering him since GW 3

      nana

  3. andy85wsm
    • Has Moderation Rights
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Come on Jose!

  4. Caesar Salahd
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Am I GTG?

    Schmeichel
    Terry, Bellerin, Skrtel
    Silva, Sanchez, Haz, Hendo
    Kun (c), Kane, Benteke

    Subs: Myhill, Boyd, Dawson, Toby

    Should I play Schmeichel or Myhill?
    Play Skrtel instead of Dawson or Toby?

    1. Caesar Salahd
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Have to say that my opponent in my league had luck with Guzan being autosubbed for Myhill. So I think he will play Myhill too.

      He is -40 points behind me

      1. RustyBz
        11 years, 6 months ago

        Huge bit of luck there!

        1. Caesar Salahd
          11 years, 6 months ago

          Yeah I know, was so pissed RVP missed that PK 🙁 😉

    2. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Which Dawson? If WBA, play over Skrtel.

      1. Caesar Salahd
        11 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah from WBA. U think WBA will get a CS?

        1. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
          11 years, 6 months ago

          Most-likely Newcastle goal source = Cisse just back from 7-match ban.

          WBA have a good defence.

          Chelsea will want to beat Liverpool.

          1. Caesar Salahd
            11 years, 6 months ago

            Cheers

          2. Caesar Salahd
            11 years, 6 months ago

            U think its better to play Myhill instead of Schmeichel then?

            1. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
              11 years, 6 months ago

              Yes. But double-up is always risky.

              If you're chasing points or mini league I'd double up, but if safe, maybe spread.

              I do think WBA have a better chance of keeping a CS against Newcastle than Leicester do against Southampton.

              I'm playing Dawson over Schlupp.

              1. Caesar Salahd
                11 years, 6 months ago

                Ok, yeah im 2 points behind the leader and +40 in front of the 3rd.

                Think the one behind me will play Myhill, because he had Guzan last GW

                1. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
                  11 years, 6 months ago

                  I'd consider spreading if only 2 points behind.

                  The DGW will be provide chance to overtake/be overtaken!

                  Any idea what leader will do? To be honest, unless the fixture is stand-out easy, predicting GK points is tough.

                  1. Caesar Salahd
                    11 years, 6 months ago

                    The leader has Krul, so I hope WBA will score 🙂

                    Thanks for feedback!

                    1. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
                      11 years, 6 months ago

                      Yer, a Dawson header from a corner would be nice haha.

                      Good luck!

                      1. Caesar Salahd
                        11 years, 6 months ago

                        Hehe yea, cheers man and good luck to you too!

    Afternoon, all.

    I know we're all sick of voting and votes, but I'd very much appreciate thoughts on:

    A) Terry, Cawson, Schlupp (Bertie, Clyne)

    vs.

    B) Terry, Cawson, Kos (Bertie, Schlupp)

    (For this GW)

    1. Trigg ⭐️
      11 years, 6 months ago

      B.

      Unless you want to get another Arsenal mid next week, over Kos.

      1. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
        11 years, 6 months ago

        Will be going Sterling --> Ramsey (Caz/Ozil if not fit)

        1. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
          11 years, 6 months ago

          That transfer will be done next week I mean.

  7. Trigg ⭐️
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Price is the only thing that Cazorla has going for him over Ozil, IMO.

    Not saying Caz is a bad choice, just that Ozil is the better one.

    1. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Overall better? Or differential for high number of points vs consistent middle number of points?

      I'd go Ozil if chasing, but Caz if leading.

      Kos, Sanchez, and Ramsey (theoretically) for me.

      1. Trigg ⭐️
        11 years, 6 months ago

        For goals and assists potential, which is what you want FPL wise.

        Sure, Caz has penalties in his locker, but Ozil plays more advanced.

  8. McNulty
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Myhill
    Ivanovic, Morgan, Fonte (PVA, Moreno)
    Hazard, Sanchez, Ramsey, Sterling (Mahrez)
    Aguero, Benteke, Kane

    1) Keep Ramsey, PVA as sub. Switch Sterling to Ozil.
    2) Sell Ramsey for Ozil. Play Sterling and swap him for Cazorla next week.
    3) Save a free and have the option to get Giroud for next week

    1. FPL Gossip Blogger
      11 years, 6 months ago

      1

  9. Jay_
    11 years, 6 months ago

    If you had Ramsey with Grealish 1st sub, would you play Grealish as he has has a good fixture and Ramsey could have a cameo ?

    1. FPL Gossip Blogger
      11 years, 6 months ago

      No I wouldn't

    2. Tommytour
      11 years, 6 months ago

      No

  10. andres
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Bring in ozil/caz or giroud (-4)?

    shmeichel (panti)
    cresswell ivan skrtel (bertie hutton)
    fabs ALEXIS hendo hazard (boyd)
    vardy aguero kane
    1 FT, 0.9

    1. Tommytour
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Fab > Ozil

    2. Venom Snake
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Ozil

  11. davies
    11 years, 6 months ago

    What to do? Any suggestions?

    Krul
    Terry - Schlupp - Dawson
    Sanchez - Hazard - Silva - Ramsey
    Aguero (C) - Kane - Vardy

    Panti, Henderson, Alderweireld, Skrtel
    1FT // 0.4 ITB

    Cheers.

    1. FPL Gossip Blogger

  12. JK - Cønt ⭐
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Regret buying Smalling now

    Carrick out pretty much kills off our CS chances

    1. Wiz
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Chin up JK, at least he has some attacking threat

    2. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Palace are not scoring much lately hopefully United will just do the job

  13. Bow Locks
    11 years, 6 months ago

    If you bought centrica on my advice I would take the profits.

  14. RustyBz
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Wasilewski's chances of a start?

    1. Wiz
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Pretty decent

    2. La Roja
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Should start

  15. Zweeps
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Start 2 out of:

    A. Skrtel
    B. Schlupp
    C. McShane
    D. PVA

    Currently on A and C

    1. Wiz
      11 years, 6 months ago

      B and C

      1. Pap Le Cissier

        This

    2. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 6 months ago

      I'd rather B and C

    3. La Roja
      11 years, 6 months ago

      B
      C

    4. Zweeps
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Cheers all.B and C it is. Hoping Skrtel doesn't nod in the odd goal.

        1. Zweeps
          11 years, 6 months ago

          😀

  16. Captain Shirokov
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Unless Jose more or less says he'll be starting Remy, is it wise to sell him for Benteke for a hit?

    1. Pap Le Cissier
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 6 months ago

      I'd do it regardless

      1. Captain Shirokov
        11 years, 6 months ago

        Really? Seems a bit rash and knee-jerky to me if he's guaranteed to start

        1. Pap Le Cissier
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          11 years, 6 months ago

          Chelsea have hardly been prolific. Your switching out a player who hasn't featured for weeks, for one in form

          1. Captain Shirokov
            11 years, 6 months ago

            In order to break even I need Benteke to score at least once. Probably more if Remy starts seeing as the league is won and Chelsea can play a bit more freely now.

            1. Pap Le Cissier
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              11 years, 6 months ago

              They can, but will they? Article yesterday showed it doesn't always happen like that with Joses teams.

              You're also viewing it based on one week. You'll make up that 4 points over the last 3 gws I'd imagine

              1. Captain Shirokov
                11 years, 6 months ago

                You're probably right.

    2. La Roja
      11 years, 6 months ago

      I think it's worth it for -4

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Yes.

  17. FatmanAndRobin
    11 years, 6 months ago

    After this GW, considering the following for -4
    Am i mad??

    Haz/Giroud to Sanchez/Wickham

    Need to chase 50 pts and rival has Giroud. Looking for differentials.
    Team then lines up as
    Panti

    Berty/PVA/Cresswell/Kolarov

    Ozil/Rambo/Sanchez

    Aguero/Wickham/Kane

    Terry/Kol/Bolasie/Cambiassoo

    1. Pap Le Cissier
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Not worth it at all.

    2. JaydenLFC87
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Get Sanchez whatever you do imo

    3. Malrog
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Seems like a good differential (Haz may not play) - but wait and see how the Sunderland forwards all play this weekend before committing to Wickham 🙂

      Alternatively you could just do Giroud -> Tekkers for differential without taking a hit?

      1. Pap Le Cissier
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 6 months ago

        This is a better option

  18. Stats Don\'t Lie
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Who to replace Moreno for rest of season?

    A)vlaar
    B)wasi
    C)Monreal
    D)bellerin

    1. HurriKane
      11 years, 6 months ago

      a

  19. HurriKane
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Best option ?

    A) Play Sterling

    B) Play Albrighton

    C) Sterling --> Ozil (-4) (Bench Albrighton)

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie

      I have all three and am going Benteke but I am chasing 1st place in ML. If I was ahead I would go Aguero.

    a) Panti vs Schmeichel

    b) Skretl vs PvA vs Duff

      Schmeichel

    I have my FT. Do I do:
    a. Hazard to Sanchez
    b. Fab to Ramsey
    c. do nothing.

    1. JaydenLFC87
      11 years, 6 months ago

      a

    2. Rabbinton
      11 years, 6 months ago

      depending on your other midfielders, do nothing

      Haz out sounds like a bad move to me

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 6 months ago

        I know, just a bit stuck.

      atm c

      If Jose gives some indication about Hazard than maybe a

      Ramsey is 50:50, seems unnecessary to take the risk if you don't already have him

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 6 months ago

        The other option is Skrtel to Koscielny but I really wanted 2 Arsenal mids.

      Demi, you don't think RVP will start up front?

      1. Demí
        11 years, 6 months ago

        Think Rooney will

        1. JK - Cønt ⭐
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          11 years, 6 months ago

          I think we'll line up

          DDG

          Valencia, Smalling, Jones, Shaw

          Blind, Herrera

          Mata, Fellaini, Young

          Rooney

    2. JK - Cønt ⭐

      I wonder if something's gone on with Begovic?

      1. Doosra - ☭BowenOfRice☭
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 6 months ago

        Definitely. He is in the 5 Live box, more often than not.

      2. Pap Le Cissier
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 6 months ago

        Off to roma I reckon

    3. Saniul
      11 years, 6 months ago

      They should have sold Begovic last year itself when he was in demand.

      1. Kings of Lyon ★
        11 years, 6 months ago

        Might put money on him going to Spurs.

        De Gea to Real
        Lloris to Man U
        Begovic to Spurs

  28. Snapes on a Plane
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Start Mignolet or Davis?

    1. La Roja
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Davis

    2. Bobby_Baggio
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Davis

    3. JaydenLFC87
      11 years, 6 months ago

      I'd start Davis,

  29. Bobby_Baggio
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Afternoon all

    Davis
    Skrtel, Terry, Alder
    Haz, Sanchez, Fab, Sterling, Hendo
    Aguero, Kane

    Schmei, Murray, Dawson, Bruce

    Thinking:

    Fab + Skrtel + Sterling > Silva + Kos +Rambo for -4 OR
    Fab + Skrtel > Silva + Kos for free

    1. Pap Le Cissier
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Prefer the first one
