    I'm down to some close calls now. Any views welcome

    A. Coutinho + Idowu (or other 4.0m DEF)
    B. Cueva + Kimmich

    1. HamezMace
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 days ago

      B

    2. Viiksisika
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 days ago

      A

    3. Gullit
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 days ago

      B imo

  2. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    All set for dream team with this lot?

    Lloris
    Danilo Meunier Godin
    Coutinho Eriksen Muller Hazard
    Cavani Lukaku Griezmann

    Reposting / Trying to get some help:

    I've got Varela and Pavard.
    Should I replace Pavard for Mojica or Dalsgaard?

    - Pavard should start GW1, but after that no one knows.
    - Mojica should start, but plays in the last day, so I won't be able to replace him
    - Dalsgaard might start too, but I'm not sure of the upside...

    Tkx!

      Depends when you plan to WC, Pavard should start GW1 but if he does well he won't be dropped I would image.

      I'd keep Varela personally.

      I have Pavard but keeping, good value at that price for a decent team - I'm planning to WC gw3, subs are pretty good so if Pavard doesn't play GW2 should have enough of on the bench to cover

      1. Gullit
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 3 days ago

        Currently this how I'm going for the WC:

        Muslera, Uzoho
        Kimmich, Meunier, Danilo, Varela, Pavard
        Müller, James Rodriguez, Cueva, Belhanda, Al-Dawsari
        Lukaku, Cavani, Jesus

        0.0 itb

      Same pickle. Considdering Kudrashov though.
      What Will u do?

      1. Gullit
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 3 days ago

        Russia have been disappointing, so I'm avoiding them. They play home, but even that could prove to be only added pressure. So I'm sticking with my team (see above).

    Hey all
    Pls Pick one

    A)Werner-Lukaku-Lewy

    what do people think of Argentina defence? Caballero and Tag (Def) look cheap. Although heard the defence is not great. Worth going with one or looking for a cheap def like Hegazi or another 4.5/4?

    1. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 days ago

      I think Argentina's group isn't as easy as people think tbh may be better off looking elsewhere

    2. Jeremy Corbyn

      I have both. They're gonna be fine

    3. mcrayeps

      Iceland will score 😉

  6. Stimps
    • 12 Years

      2 city, 2 liv, 1 utd def

    Currently on this:

    Muslera-Uzoho
    Meunier-Varela-Danilo-Pavard-Hakimi
    J.rod-Willian-Oezil-Aldawsari-Inui
    Griezmann-Lukaku-Cavani

    Thoughts? Defence weak? Currently unsure about Willian and Oezil

    any doubts for 2 Rounds team here :

    Almuaiouf / Uzoho
    Meunier / Danilo / Varela / Mojica / Pavard
    Mueller / James / Eriksen / Cueva / Meza
    Lukaku / Mertens / Mbappe

    Will WC at Round 3 so i need strong 2 rounds team here..

    1. GoonerByron
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 3 days ago

      Don't like Pavard.. Dodgy for GW1, very dodgy for GW2 and wouldn't want to be using a transfer on a defender.

      Everything else good, like the Mertens pick.. Not brave enough to go with him myself though 😉

      1. mcrayeps
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 days ago

        hoping for goal galore for Belgium against Pan and Tun

  20. Farke in hell

    1. Sif

      Burnley look good for the first 8 games setting United aside.
      I think Wood could be a great option, he'll still be leading the line and has kept growing into the team. Plus suppliers will be back in the form of Brady and Defour.

      1. Bragazeti
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 3 days ago

        It will be interesting to see how they balance their season, with the possibility of European football.

  29. Rinseboy

    Can you guys list the 4.5 mids I should look at?
    C Sanchez (CDM?)
    Inui (not predicted to start?)
    Guzman?
