Robert Lewandowski (£9.5m) is the Fantasy focal point of Poland’s opening game of the World Cup against Senegal – but Fantasy managers have largely steered clear of this fixture.

The Bayern Munich striker is one just two players in the match with more than five percent ownership on McDonald’s FIFA World Cup Fantasy game, sitting in 8.5% of squads.

Meanwhile, midfielder Salif Sane’s lowly price of £4.5m convinced 6.6% of managers to use him as a budget enabler.

Liverpool attacker Sadio Mane (£8.5m) hasn’t been particularly fancied for goals by Fantasy managers as he is owned by just 3.6%.

POLAND XI (4-2-3-1): Szczęsny; Rybus, Pazdan, Cionek, Piszczek; Krychowiak, Zieliński; Grosicki, Milik, Błaszczykowski; Lewandowski

SENEGAL XI (4-4-1-1): K N’Diaye; Sabaly, Kouyaté, Sané, Wagué; Niang, Gueye, A N’Diaye, Sarr; Mané; Diouf.

    Did jesus > costa

    James > coutinho (-4) good move?

  2. Tmel
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Keep Jesus for Costa Rica or ditch for Costa? (-4)

    • 13 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    muller to Isco
    Or
    Pavard to 4.5 def?

    which is the bigger priority?

    1. Kushal
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Muller to isco
      France will keep cs this time

    2. Lewa
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Pavard If he doesn't start. Germany will Probably bounce back

    Shouldn't have listened to those using the VAR stats based on Italian football 😀

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Shouldn't or should've?

      1. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        I clearly should have stuck more penalty/set piece takers in my team

  5. Straobalno
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Cavani or Costa?

  6. Lewa
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Layun is listed as a defender in my local game. Am I stupid if I change Meunier or Trippier to him? Which one?

    1. teddy.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Trippier to Layun

  7. 420king
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    With doubts about Neymar, what's the best choice:

    A) Neymar --> Kane
    B) James --> Isco
    C) Neymar -> Kane, James -> Coutinho

    1. Lewa
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      c

  8. teddy.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Best 2 x 4.5 WC keeper combo?

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Get Uzoho and then any other 4.5 or 5.0 keeper that plays on a different day like Ochoa

      1. teddy.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Ok. Was thinking of Uzoho + Fabianski. See how he plays. Don't have any final day captain options otherwise...

  9. Niemi
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Best midfielder at 6.5 max?

    Already got Layun and Inui

    Been looking at Cheryshev, Golovin, Trezeguet, Said, Cueva, Ljajic, Zuber, Pavon and Meza. Can't decide.

    1. Pogboom
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      I think Golovin and Ljajic.

    2. SW6
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Probably one of the Russians. Egypt were very defensive vs Uruguay but surely they'll have to open up in this match now

  10. TaiwanHC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    So everyone who has Neymar or considers picking him - what are you going to do with him?

    He limped off after 10 minutes from training.

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Either play him or have someone else.

      1. TaiwanHC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks man.

  11. Pogboom
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    How's this WC team?

    Muslera - Uzoho
    Varela - Maguire - Akanji - Meunier - Sabaly
    Lingard - Coutinho - Isco - Layun - Gazinsky
    Ronaldo - Cavani - Lukaku

    Thanks.

    1. teddy.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Not bad... I'd probably change Cavani and Lingard.

  12. umerlfc
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Best mid to get on WC for 9m budget? Apart from Coutinho and Eriksen?

    1. Klopp For The Kopps 😆
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      B.Silva if not getting Ronaldo

    2. Dušan Citizen

      Isco

    5. teddy.

      Isco

  13. Dušan Citizen

  15. andrinho
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Best £6.5m mid or under for GW 2?

    1. Pogboom
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Layun maybe.

  16. Spike ⚽️
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Nice ton up Bairstow. Smashing the Aussies for six!!

  17. Emiliano Sala
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Draxler nailed for germany you think?

  18. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    My worry is wildcarding now will mean it is very restricted for the round of 16 wc with only 3 transfers for quarters

    Anyone think the same?

    1. Spike ⚽️
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      I do but then again I'm not that good at Mcdonalds!!

    2. 420king
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Many but I don't. WCing next round.

    3. Ten Season Wonder
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Save it then

    4. AllanM
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Risk v reward. More risk wildcarding now but you have 2 fixtures to benefit. if you get the team wrong later then you might need to take hits.

    5. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Do you want points now or later

    6. jia you
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Quarters looks the perfect time to play it imo as I think more teams than we think will have it all to play for come Round 3!

    7. palace ash
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Yes. I'm WCing GW5. WCers will regret it, mark my words

    1. Bambi
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Inui for 4.5 or the plethora of 5.5s - layun, cheryshev, etc.

  23. Henryyy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

  24. Dave

    Lost on previous article:

    A) Mbappe (Peru) -> Costa (Iran)
    B) JRod (Poland) -> Isco (Iran)

  26. Saka White Rice

    Does free transfer carry over in McDonalds WC?

    1. Dave
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      as the rules clearly state....No

    2. Norman Conquest
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      no

  27. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    So looks like I'm heading for 48 points all out! That's after 5 captain changes and subbing out all my 1 pointers. Thank Christ this is not FPL 😀

    1. Ten Season Wonder
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      I subbed out Thomas Muller (1pt) for Carlos Sanchez 10 minutes before today's KO.

      Chin up!

  28. Football Heaven
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Messi or Neymar for the rest of the gs?

    1. Kolarov Fpl Legend
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      N

  29. CellinoArmy
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Right, so made some changes, 2 mil left and on WC.

    Ochoa Sommer
    Pique Godin Rodriguez Meunier Guerreiro
    Gazinsky Bentancur Isco Layun Coutinho
    Costa Cavani Hernandez

    Recommendations? It's 3 mexicans, 3 uruguayans, 3 spaniards, 2 swiss, 1 brazilian, 1 portuguese, 1 belgian, 1 russian so slightly concerned for balance. Also someone pointed out Sommer/Ochoa play same day rd3, but can't think of a reliable double for round2/3.

  30. Defochibe

    WC Team GTG?

    Uzoho Kajoui
