Suspended Sanchez most-owned asset for Poland v Colombia

The most popular World Cup Fantasy asset in Poland v Colombia won’t actually feature in the match.

That’s because Carlos Sanchez (£4.5m), owned by 14.5 percent of managers, will miss Gameround 2 due to suspension.

The Colombian midfielder was sent off for a hand-ball against Japan, conceding a penalty in the process.

2014’s break-out star James Rodriguez (£9.0m) still has 11.5 percent backing despite missing out on a starting place in Gameround 1 due to injury.

For Poland, their go-to man is Robert Lewandowksi (£9.5m), with 7.2 percent ownership.

Apart from Wojciech Szczesny (£5.0m), no other player in Poland’s ranks has more than 3.1 percent ownership.

  11. Ginkapo FPL
    • 12 Years

    I need a big captain to save my week. I have been switching of 6 pt strikers all week. Come on JRod, at the very least this wasnt a mistake, now just make it heroic.

  12. diesel001

    Colombia look good. Do not want England to play them - they move the ball very quickly and accurately.

  13. Top Lad Dakes.

  14. pundit of punts

    1 goal from j Rod and I will score 100 points. Amazing WC.

    James assist gives me 9 players with a return. Somehow avoided a big score though 😆

    1. Patch
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      What do you count as a big score...

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

        70+ or more than 7 for any individual player 😀

        1. Patch
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 10 months ago

          I need to meet your missus, you must have really high standards!

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

            I do 🙂

    2. Legomané
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 6 Years

      Almost at the bench boost validity threshold

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

        1 point on my bench including GK 😀

    3. Alex_thekid
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Only Werner didn't score more than 2 for my full starting team
      Muslera
      Varela Tripper Parvard Meunier
      Coutinho Cheryshev James
      Lukaku Jesus *Werner
      Uzuzo Danilo Ljajic Cueva

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

        Very nice. Looks like you have a decent total score to go with it 🙂

  16. EmreCan Hustle

    Have Poland forgotten how to attack?

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

      Shocked at how bad they've been in a game and a half!

    2. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Colombia are very good at keeping the ball to be fair. They know who to move the ball quickly when they need to.

      Being run over physically

  17. studge15
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    1st draft, thoughts?

    El Shehnawy Sommer
    Akanji RRodriguez Kimmich Carvajal Geurrero
    JRod Isco Cout Inui Sassi
    Werner Costa Reus

    Or do Werner->Ronaldo and downgrade somewhere else?
    Werner had a few chances against Sweden, think he's due a goal at some point. South Korea didn't look great defensively against Mexico.

  18. ooooo

    WC?
    Uzoho
    Danillo Meunier Varela

  20. AdamJ91

    Ben Mustapha / Elshenawy
    Guerreiro / Tagliafico / Rodriguez / Akanji / Gabr
    Coutinho / Isco / Jedinak / Inui / Badri

    1. Union_Jacks

      Bronn went off injured last game.

      1. Eden Wizard
        • 5 Years

        Thanks!

    2. Tommytour

      Points over value, Lukaku won't play.

      1. Eden Wizard
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        I know but, 100% want him for last 16 so he’s staying put!

        1. vbutkus
          • 7 Years

          You get unlimited transfers after the group stage, so you can get him anyways.

          1. Eden Wizard
            • 5 Years

            Price rises

    Poland are terrible

    1. ktongue
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Agreed. Columbia have been all over them. Shame they didn't play like this in the opening game

      1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        u know they were down to 10 men after 3 mins?

        1. ktongue
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 10 months ago

          I was watching but it wasn't like C. Sanchez didn't know what he was doing. Germany went down to ten men and they pulled it back in the last 30 seconds.

      2. diesel001
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Tough when you are down to 10 men after 3 minutes....

        1. ktongue
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 10 months ago

          Do you not agree with the deliberate handball then?

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

            Handball was def deliberate stupid play from a young player srsly doubt it was team strategy . Point is they held on and competed against a pretty dangerous Japanese team (further proven by there performance vs Senegal) even with 10 men for almost the entirety of that game. A bit harsh to judge them poorly in that match.

  27. Atimis
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Shaq, James or Kroos?

    Second thing:
    1. Uzoho, RRdoriguez, Gabr, Hamed
    or
    2. ElShenawy, Akanji, 4.5 def, Sassi
    ??

  28. ktongue
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    A - Salah and Erickson out for Kane and 6.5m midfielder?

    B - Meza out for another 5.5m midfielder?

  29. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    score check?
    for me bad round-57 points and 126 overall
    Double mexico defense was heartbreaking

    1. Eden Wizard
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      🙄

  30. Ginkapo FPL
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Serbia vs Switzerland to top the group:

    Serbia) 150 + Jrod(C) + Mojica
    Switzerland) 173 + Jrod

    With Jrod on 4 and Mojica on 1, the Serbs have a long way to go. But if they both get past 60mins with a clean sheet and a brace between them.......

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Actually forgot Kagawa's 2pts so Serbs are on 152..... (Cause that will matter....)
