FanTeam are teaming up with Fantasy Football Scout to launch an exclusive free event for readers of this site.

This Free Roll tournament takes place this weekend and there is €500-worth of prizes on offer, in the form of tickets for future events:


RankPrize
1st3 x €20 Open tickets
2nd2 x €20 Open tickets
3rd-20th€20 Open ticket
21st-40th€2 Open ticket

This is a tournament that essentially gives Fantasy managers the chance to build a ‘Free Hit’ squad for nine specified upcoming Gameweek 27 matches:

To enter, click the below link and enter the following Entry Code: Lundstram21

ENTER YOUR TEAM AHEAD OF THE SATURDAY DEADLINE

HOW TO PLAY: A BRIEF GUIDE

Slightly different from the usual squad-based games, FanTeam managers are given a budget of €105m to build a team of 11 players that includes at least one goalkeeper, three defenders, two midfielders and one forward.

There is no bench or manual substitutes; instead, there is a ‘Safety Net’ feature. If a player in your Fantasy team isn’t in the starting XI for their side, they will automatically be substituted for the next priced player from the same position and club.

Captains score double points, as usual.

HOW DOES THE SCORING WORK?

FPL managers looking for a way to make their knowledge pay will have no trouble picking up this event, with its familiar scoring system.

Think of it as FPL without the bonus points, with a few other exceptions – detailed in the graphic above.


GAMEWEEK 27 WEEKLY MONSTER

For those Fantasy managers looking for an even bigger prize pool, FanTeam have a €75k Weekly Monster event running simultaneously in Gameweek 27.

The rules and scoring system are the same as the above Free Roll event, with entries costing €20.

    Daily fun fact :

    Soucek has more goals than Bruno this season excluding pens.

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      and only 3 less than Salah

    2. The Train Driver
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Lingard has more goals than Soucek in the last 3. Lingard GOAT.

    3. Pep Roulette
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Soucek has more goals than Mane this season (without including or excluding pens) 😉

    4. The Train Driver
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Another fun fact, Firmino who is a striker has less goals than 23 other players in the PL...

      1. JONALDINHO
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Looks like someone else who doesn’t watch and understand football. Firmino isn’t there to score goals

        1. The Train Driver
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          So he's missing all those chances because he isn't there to score? Lol!

          Also, same could be said about Bruno. He's a mid, he isn't there to score, he's there to connect and assist. Has 10 assists this season, second place.

          Although he's not there to score (according to your argument) he's still second in most goals after Salah, and probably in x10 less shots on goal. Also just one more penalty than Salah...

          1. JONALDINHO
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            Firmino’s role in the team is to create space for Salah and Mane to attack. He’s constantly moving around opening gaps. He’s the glue of the team and keeps it ticking. He’s also the one who starts all of the presses and is key to the system. Most people can’t comprehend this. If he wasn’t good enough don’t you think they’d have signed a proper striker by now?

            I’m not saying Bruno is a bad player but people hail him as the second coming of Christ. I’m pretty sure he’s top 3 for most shots taken this year yet only has 7 open play goals and every one of his assists are 3 yard passes in the box. Again he’s a great player but nowhere close to the likes of KDB, Silva, etc.

            1. @persecuted_by_mods
              5 years, 5 months ago

              So you can justify and make excuses for everyone but Bruno? An attacking player who often is the player tracking back into his own box, the man who has to do literally everything

              No excuses for a guy that joined a team that was 14th? And have basically been second since then

              1. The Train Driver
                • 11 Years
                5 years, 5 months ago

                If he played in Liverpool he would be better than Messi and Ronaldo combined according to this guy, no point in arguing with him.

              2. JONALDINHO
                • 8 Years
                5 years, 5 months ago

                Not making excuses. Firmino is a bad finisher no doubt but people go on as if goals is the only thing that matters and that’s what they judge a player on. I made the statement that Soucek scored more open play goals than Bruno as a joke. Bruno is obviously a great player I never said he wasn’t. Don’t really understand why every one has to hate on my opinion

            2. Egg noodle
              • 16 Years
              5 years, 5 months ago

              Just because you aren't an out n out striker doesn't justify so many missed chances and poor finishing.

              Imagine if Soucek wasn't scoring, or even Zouma. Because its not their main job doesn't justify being horrible at it.

        2. FPL Daniel
          • 17 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          one of the prime reasons that Liverpool is falling this season is that Firminho is shite. Liverpool fans are delusional and don't want to admit it. No.9 is there to score goals. At least double digits, 15 + hopefully

          Lol this guy and his takes on understanding football.

    My tc is on ...

  3. royals forever
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    5 years, 5 months ago

    In your opinon what transfer or transfers are better for this GW and the next few

    Rashford > Son
    Bruno & Stones > KDB & Lascelles (-4)

    Rest of Team

    Martinez Johnstone

    Stones Alna Dallas Mee Dias

    Salah Rashford Fernandes Rapinha Gundogan

    DCL Watkins Ings

    0.2 ITB 1 FT TC remaining

    Any ideas would be welcomed

    1. Davros
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      A given 29

  4. 03farmboy
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Jesus worth transferring in this weekend? For Calvert Lewin

    1. andres
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      considering him on my WC actually. There is also Mahrez, which would allow ings maybe.

    2. mcsteely
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Poss double for Everton so hold fire on that.

      Not sure I can take any more Pep Roulette. Dias, Gundo, Cancelo and KDB are the best city options for security of starts (touch wood)

    3. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Kneejerk reaction

  5. andres
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Ings anyone?

    1. Davros
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I’ll pass thanks

    2. Christina.
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Nah. Had him last DGW. Sold for Kane this wk.

    3. Flair
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      What aspect of his 1 goal in 8 games for the worst form team in the league appeals to you?

    4. Pep Roulette
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Naah

    5. Debauchy
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Nah Southampton have issues at the mo

    6. Egg noodle
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I rather remove him for a hit

  6. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    A. DCL to Antonio & bench Bruno?

    B. Keep DCL (possible DGW28) and play either him or Bruno?

    1. mcsteely
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Similar situation to me. Wait and see if Everton double gets announced. If so then keep DCL but play Bruno.

      If not then probably keep DCL anyway

    2. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Obviously B

  7. Drumandbaines123
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    As a Kane non-owner if he has a huge haul tonight I think I will be hanging up my boots until next season. Potential swing in points will be huge considering all the captainers/TCLers and the gloating from many of those owners will be endless. Areola - come on lad you can do this!

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

      I didnt own gundogan when he was 180% owned in that double and hauled, come back and planned for this double, used my BB and now just on the edge of top10k. Point is there is always ways to get the edge back on others.

    2. Debauchy
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Well Im one of them and promise no gloating . Hang in mate just remember what you do this season whilst "suffering" will all lead to a better season next. Never ever give up !!!!

    3. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Jammy Kane owners definitely don’t deserve a haul tonight

    4. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Don’t see him hauling at all. Fulham really solid defensively. If Spurs do score I see it being Son because of the way Fulham play

      1. Debauchy
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah but as you know it don't always go the way you/we see it

    5. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Could be wrong but I don't think Kane will haul tonight. Fulham have been a lot tighter recently. I've both Kane and Son but neither captained and two of my nearest rivals have Son captained so not really sure what to hope for.

    6. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah, but the point swing would have been huge if you brought in Aubameyang Captain at home to Leeds when no one else did that.. it works both ways.

  8. Eddie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Poor Lamptey

    1. Debauchy
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Whats up with him now ?

    2. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Hamstring injury going to end his season it looks like. Madness

      1. The Train Driver
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Hopefully just season and not career...

  9. JJeyy
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Bale, Alli, Son, Kane all starting

    1. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Davies?

      1. *Reformed-Character*
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        no chance

        1. My heart goes Salalalalah
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          I see 😉

  10. mcsteely
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Would you do Digne to Dias if you knew Everton had a double next week?

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      No

    2. Debauchy
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Most definitely Not

      1. mcsteely
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        I agree. But would you make still that move if there has been no announcement of the everton double before the deadline?

  11. 7petipaps
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    A. Saka, Kane
    B. Son, Antonio

    Please?

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      B easily

      1. *Reformed-Character*
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        definitely doesn't warrant the "easily"

  12. Tshelby
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    All chips left except FH.

    The team:
    2ft - 0.0 itb

    Martinez
    Shaw, Dias, Mee, Coufal, Dallas
    Barnes, Salah, Bruno, sterling, Gundogan
    Watkins, Antonio, Bamford

    Think Sterling and Barnes need to go.. Any tips who to get in? Or maybe wait and hit my wc next week

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Prep for 29 and WC after that

  13. sirmorbach
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Can I afford to hold my FT, lads?

    Martínez / Pope
    Dias / Stones / Cresswell / Digne /  Dallas
    Salah / Bruno / Gündogan / Raphinha / Soucek
    Kane / DCL / Watkins

    1. rowdog24
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      You could do Bruno to Son if you wanted but I think no massive need to do the transfer.

  14. rowdog24
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    (C)ancelo?

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      May be getting only one game

    2. The Senate
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Gundo for me, I have him +Dias+Cancelo. Cancelo would be above Dias IMO.

      1. Saka_me_sideways
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Interesting, I have the same 3 but currently have the (C) on Dias.
        You think Cancelo will play both and then get rested against Fulham?
        Tbh I’m considering avoiding the headache and just going with Kane 😆

  15. The Senate
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Opinons on Nat Phillips as an FPL asset?

    I'd only need him for GW27 so I can bench Shaw (FH29) and he'd be bench fodder afterwards. Will he play? Is it a decent chance of CS?

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Been there already, don’t want to go back

  16. Dele
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Bruno + Cancelo >> KDB + 5.4?

    Yay or nay?

  17. Chandler Bing
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Worth removing Cancelo for a hit to incorporate KdB (c)?

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      No

  18. Pukki Blinders
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Considering starting Konsa over Bruno this week... am I mad?

    1. Chandler Bing
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I'm starting Elmohamady over Bruno. I'm crazier.

    2. The Senate
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      both are getting 2 so I'm not sure it matters

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Why you so sure Wolves score? Dreadful in attack

    3. DB_00
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Yes

  19. The Final Boss
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Any chance son got rested /benched tonight? Scared not owning him as my ml rivals have him.

  20. as33
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Any chance Alonso will start tonight?

    1. Flynny
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Good chance

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Comments were ripping you apart as well. WP

    2. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      The reaction to anyone suggesting selling Bruno was way over the top.
      You'd swear that people somehow forgot that no player is essential in this game.
      Or they mistakingly believe that some players are essential.
      The danger game was Palace but United have a coward as a manager, so the danger was dilluted.
      Bruno won't even touch the ball Vs City. So that's 3 blanks in a row. It was reasonably predictable. Just don't post non-sheep moves on here as the reaction will always be the same.

      1. Debauchy
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        You sold him, I sold him for Son . Salah is now getting ever closer to the chopping block . As you say no one is essential its really about players for segments of the season. Tough getting the timing right sure , but don't try - don't succeed

        1. RoysCallerAnne
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          100%
          This place breeds and encourages meek playing of the game. Not least by encouraging the falsehood that retaining selling value is more important than getting points.

          1. Debauchy
            • 13 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            Yeah , and don't get on to the Value chasers. Made a point of checking TVs of the top 10 at end of the last 5 seasons and without fail 6 of the 10 have low to moderate TVs. Bargains always appear and indeed usually outscore the template picks in the run in . Cheers mate

            1. Rassi
              • 11 Years
              5 years, 5 months ago

              Totally agree on TV. Some people in my ML have taken riddiculous amount of hits just to build up value.

              1. Debauchy
                • 13 Years
                5 years, 5 months ago

                Yep it's crazy the amount of time some spend on increasing TV at the expense of points . Go on the site every early morning to witness the whoops over 2 up and none down. When will they ever learn 🙂
                That said I do try and increase TV early when I can just in case I may need it but never at the expense of points

                1. Baps Hunter
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 8 Years
                  5 years, 5 months ago

                  Taking hits and losing pts to earn tv is simply stupid. It basically can't be gained vack. Yet on the other hand poor tv can easily become a problem if big hitters are in good form. There are still those differentials to have even if you have high tv.

  21. M2.0

        This means he will score a hat trick so you shouldn't bench him 😉

          Good to see you know Sod’s law

            Sod’s law was coined for FPL... FACT

      Man United get penalties like candy, can’t bring myself to do that unfortunately.

        This is the only thing that worries me...

          Haha I was all set to last week but the Grealish injury meant I couldn’t. Not sure the replacements are much better either now. Who did you sell him for?

            You’ve ruined it now 😆
            I’m sure you’ll be fine without him.

    Jota likely to have A cameo today and start next GW?

      You would imagine so. Firmino needs to be taken out of the firing line, he's not having a good season at all.

        Could be A great Barnes replacement then

          Apart from no game in 29, yes. It's the only thing holding me back from getting him this week, as this week may be the time to get him ahead of the curve.

      Hard to know - the Gegentards definitely need something new to try ignite their shocking season

    Good enough to BB27?

      Depends on your expectation, looks good enough for 10-12pts

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Shocking considering I would have had at least 17 pts if I BBed in 26
