Tunisia v England: Walker the go-to Fantasy asset

Kyle Walker (£6.0m) is the headline World Cup Fantasy for England ahead of their first game of Russia’s finals.

The Manchester City wing-back has become one of the most assured of starts in Gareth Southgate’s back-three, as a makeshift centre-back.

His importance to the Three Lions has convinced a tenth of World Cup Fantasy managers to sign him for Gameround 1.

Jesse Lingard (£7.5m) is the next most-popular in 6.9% of squads with expensive forward Harry Kane (£11.0m) in 6.6%.

With selection a possibility in midfield and attack, Dele Alli (£9.0m) and Raheem Sterling (£9.0m) are both before four percent ownership.

The most popular player in Tunisia’s ranks is striker Ahmed Kalil (£4.5m), who is not expected to get much game-time Russia. However, four percent of managers have opted to use him as a budget enabler.

Meanwhile, left-back Ali Maaloul’s (£4.5m) three assists in qualifying and recent friendlies has one percent including him on a punt.

    I thought Commentators are supposed to be neutral

    1. Fantastisk

      So painful listening to these clowns.

    2. GreennRed

      English commentators should not be neutral when commentating England.

        Next you will be saying benefits/dole should prioritise those who are propa british

      they don't have to be when commentating on their own nation.

      I’m watching in America. British chap and an American skirt announcing. Terrible. No chemistry between them. I can here the Brit rolling his eyes every time the American opens her mouth.

    Very interesting retweet from Ben Dinnery about how one player had to stay on the pitch during Portugal celebrations to prevent kickoff

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Smart bucks.

    2. Pierce34
      • 8 Years

      Why not just celebrate on the pitch?

    For the last two matches, which one. Trippier--Layun--Meunier--R.Rodriguez ?

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Layun/rodriguez

  8. Stats Don\'t Lie
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Delph apparently, personally would put on RLC

    Problem i have is Lingard and Sterling are getting more chances than our best finisher.

  11. el polako

    I just cant see Harry Kane giving a uplifting speach as a captain at the half time - not the way he talks.
    Who can do it in this team ?

    1. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Harry can not speak right now he has a fly in his throat.

      1. Rainer
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        *has a family of flies

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Southgate said in a pre-game interview that he'd be saying the final words before the team went out, because the lads don't like doing it himself.

      Not what you'd want to hear!

    3. Dr Van Nostrand

  12. fenixri

    Despite not keeping cs tripp was good pick. He has so much assist potential.

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Kimmich v2.0

  13. diesel001

    This is why you don't want South American refs in charge of your games. Way to whistle happy. Hopefully this is our South American ref out of the way.

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

      Give me the Iranian ref from Mexico Germany every game.

    Eh it's a really young team mistakes are expected but they are dominating play bodes well just need better finishing

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 9 Years

      Lingard..

    2. Deulofail
      • 8 Years

      Agree but we'd be 3 up with Vardy playing 😀

  15. Dr Dream

    Apologies.

    During an earlier post I may have accidentally said that England were the "Best in the World"..

    I wish to declare that it was not a statement of fact and may actually have been slightly misleading.

    Sorry.

    1. GreennRed

      Here now. 45 mins. Vardy, Rashford chomping at bit ready to do damage.

    How do i activate Wildcard on fifa fantasy? Can only see Bench boost and max captain buttons?

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      When you select two transfers it should give you Wildcard option.

    3 facts about first half
    1. England played really well and create chances (3-5-2 looking good)
    2. Lots of young players (bright future)
    3. Sterling is a headless chicken

    1. lilmessipran

  21. OldBenKenobi

  22. Midlands Saint73

    Overall decent first half but should have had 3 or 4 goals. Soft but stupid penalty and Kane wrestling should have awarded us one. No idea why Southgate would consider bringing Delph on for Ali as Tunisia are there for the taking it seems

      Ask him why is Zaha missing from Englands squad.

      1. UshFPL
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Wes Morgan aswell, and Victor Moses

      2. el polako

      3. Tasty Jerk
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Agreed, just don't have a player like Zaha who can run with the ball and make something happen. Southgate (and Hendersen) to blame.

  28. Lewa

    Trippier or Meunier ?
