Fantasy managers look to Griezmann for goals

France are expected to register a big win against Australia and keep a clean sheet too, upon looking at the ownership levels of their players.

Antoine Griezmann (£10.0m) is the most popular asset for the fixture, coming into it sat in 25 percent of McDonald’s FIFA World Cup Fantasy squads. In the forwards department, only Lionel Messi (£12.0m) and Neymar (£12.0m) more owners.

N’Golo Kante (£6.0m) is the preferred option in midfield, his 20 percent ownership dwarfing that of Paul Pogba (£9.0m).

There seems to be no faith in Australia to continue their scoring run of ten goals in their last five matches with zero percent ownership for their midfield and attack.

Meanwhile, Raphael Varane (£6.0m) and Hugo Lloris (£6.0m) sit in 15 and 13 percent of squads respectively.

    Keep Griez or attempt with Jesus, Meunier, Lewa/James?

      I think Jesus and Lewandowski could be worth twisting for.

    Is there a decent shout for a player to run the furthest in this Argentina v Iceland game? Cheers

          Sorry to hear that, I'm sure everything will be fine buddy.

          I complete relate to that surreal feeling. Driving home with a baby was the weirdest / best feeling.

      Did you see that goal Nacho scored?

      1. Frucke
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Haha, yes... and the pen

          That pen could have been conceded by anyone imo. Ronaldo quick feet + the way he makes a meal of it

      Don't think FIFA can be as bothered to zoom on different angles as FPL to see if it would have gone in or not.

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Neither do FPL

        1. VS10_
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 10 months ago

          Yes they do...

              You can start with Young's goal v Brighton which he only got the assist for in FPL.

    Is there anyway I can find stats for distance covered by players? I'm in a head-to-head with my mate on Fifa score predictor. We both have 2-0 Argentina but you get bonus points for correctly choosing the player who ran the furthest.

    Thoughts on taking a punt on Salah for the last two group games?

    1. SmilersKnife
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      hardly a punt - more like common sense

    2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      He may not even start

    You can change captains as many times as you want, after every day, right?

    As an Argentina supporter, I just can't get over the fact that Willy is our #1 while Rulli hasn't even been called.

    Why have the English called the Icelandic clap the viking clap.
    Iceland weren't Vikings?
