      2 good line ups but Croatia’s 11 is unreal. Good luck !

      Who’s Luca?

      1. The Mentaculus
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Just the most famous player on the pitch

        1. Pariße
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Not famous enough to get his name right?

    Hazard or Olmo?

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Haz by so far

    Any WC2 drafts been knocking about yet? Double/triple Senegal defence probably a must against Qatar

    1. Thanos
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Fancy Qatar to get a goal at least

      1. The Mentaculus
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Really?! Did you watch the opening games?

        1. Thanos
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Not so much about the game but the overall scheme of things. Qatar in Qatar and won’t be scoring a goal and bowing out. Not so sure. I’m expecting a few dubious decisions going their way.

    This Tiesto nonsense they're blasting around the stadium pre-kick-off is a drop off from seven nation army

    1. Pariße

      Havent heard this name since 2011.

    Glazers' probably looking to sell Man Utd to someone who will equity finance and can reduce the leverage before they have to refinance at higher interest rates.

    Recession coming and interest rates rising, makes refinancing the existing debt more expensive.

    Hence time to sell and take the money.

    With the Leveraged Buy Out (LBO) model the Glazers' used to buy Man Utd, they have raked it in financially.

    So has the negative budget transfer hack been eliminated?

  7. Neevesy
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Leave the armband on Messi for his one goal, or shift to KDB or Neymar?

    1. Drexl Spivey
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'm shifting to KDB.

    Modrić should have had at least 2 yellows or straight red and somehow he isn't booked yet. Pathethic referee again.

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Looks like we can count on this ref to be super stingy with his cards

  10. Jonesfromthere

    So I just did Pavard and Di Maria to Cancelo and Mexican fodder. How come that did not work for this match day? I thought what would happen was Cancelo (unlocked) would be available?

    1. Firminooooo
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      You can only upgrade a unlocked player if you want his points this MD.

    2. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I think only transfers of unlocked player ➡ unlocked player are active for current MD. Transferring out a player who has already played means replacement only scores from next MD (and you keep points of player sold)

      Thanks both, wildcard it is

    I think the standard of football so far in this tournament has been awful. you'd swear a lot of these players have had almost half a season of football under their belts with no real break then suddenly they had a world cup to play..hmm

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Disagreed.

    2. JBG
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Hahaha.. Just logged on to write something similar. The tempo and standard of football in this match has been very lackluster. That's probably down to the timing of the WC schedule.

    3. lions
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      England and France the only teams who look any good so far

    4. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Awful is a bit harsh. You can't really expect the same team cohesion as EPL with no prep, or the same tempo in this heat. Hopefully the intensity will improve a bit from MD2 though

    5. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      100%, hot conditions + halfway through season = pi55-poor standard

    6. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I think most teams are being too careful not to lose. Two 0-0 draws yesterday, Holland match was almost 0-0.

      England and France game were exception since the opponents were so pants

    7. El Presidente
      • 6 Years

      That's not true at all, you know Jack.

      1. boc610
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        LoL you on the debate team? and your wrong I dont know anyone called jack

    8. jacob1989
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Teams between 2 even teams they are also scared to lose. So they won't go all out to win.

    9. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Isn't this the case at every World Cup? Only a couple of teams have a flying start. Everyone else, tentative and defensive

    Hartson wants to change his prediction of loads of loads to a cagey game !

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Weirdly, the commentary on the US streams I've seen has been so much better than UK coverage

      1. lions
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        What has happened to English commentators, quality seems to be few and far between. I guess the better ones are kept fresh for the 'big' games

      2. El Presidente
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I can't do it, their accents drive me nuts.

    The Presenter on ITV today is the best in my opinion, including the BBC offering

  15. Silecro

    Vlašić misses sitter, would be Sosa assist

    1. lions
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I got Sosa

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I believe there are many of us

      2. TheBiffas
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        We all do

    2. NABIL - FPL otai

      Ughh

  16. NABIL - FPL otai

    Come on Luka.. don't prolong my midfield curse (Bergwijn, ADM)

  17. Pariße
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Triple Croatian defence in Sosa, Livaković and Gvardiol, this is going exactly as I thought. Sosa almost got an assist too.

    1. boc610
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      a half so bad only two mins were added on

    2. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Nice. Looks like you'll get a few tackle points for Gvardiol & Sosa too

      1. jacob1989
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        There are no tackle pts for defenders. Only for mids

  18. The Mentaculus

    Thoroughly deserved HT subbing for the awful Vlasic

    1. Pariße
      • 10 Years

      Yet to fill his sister’s shoes 🙂

  19. DannyDrinkVodka
    • 6 Years

    Ugh, forgot to substitute Sosa for Pavard

    1. Ask Yourself

      Thank you for guaranteeing our sosa CS now

    Playing a score predictor league for the WC, would appreciate your thoughts on my predictions for today lads..

    Germany 2-1 Japan
    Spain 2-0 Costa Rica
    Belgium 2-1 or 2-0 Canada

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Look solid and safe picks. I fancy one upset today do.

    Q 0-0 r 2022

  22. boc610
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    how often do you see players like messi and modric play this poorly? cant believe what I'm seeing. botching passes they'd usually make with their eyes closed

    1. jacob1989
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      They are past their peak. Modric has been ok. Morocco defense good

  23. Khalico
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Captain KDB or Neymar?

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I've gone KDB. Easy fixture on paper, assist potential and gets points for Key passes

    2. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Also midfielders get 2 more points per goal

    3. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Neymar. Belgium are rubbish

      1. jacob1989
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Belgium are rubbish?

        1. TheBiffas
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah. Always been worse than the sum of their parts

          1. jacob1989
            • 3 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            They finished 3rd place last world cup beating brazil in qf. Thats not rubbish.

            1. TheBiffas
              • 5 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Yeah and they had witsel, Lukaku and hazard in their prime

  24. TheBiffas
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    What a terrible game this is, perisic is gone next week

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Everyone’s midfielders have been poo I wouldn’t worry too much mate unless they went rogue with Saka or Bellingham

      1. TheBiffas
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Unfortunately lots of my ml rivals have one or the other

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          That is unfortunate

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Forgot Kramaric was even on the pitch to be honest. 0 shots, 0 dribbles and 3 passes his total contribution.

  25. dansmusen
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Soo just to be sure. I have Fred and looks like he is benched. I can transfer another unlocked player for him and start in this matchday ?

    1. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yep

    2. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yes you would be able to swap Fred for any unlocked player and get their points this week. If you have another transfer, you could sell an expensive locked player to generate funds so Fred could be e.g. de Bruyne.

      I only feel compelled to help because if you picked Fred then you need help.

      1. TheBiffas
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        😆

  26. boc610
    • 14 Years

    this game is absolutely terrible but its no Denmark v France from 2018 , a nil nil dead rubber which to this day makes me shudder just thinking about it

  27. GREEN IS GOOD
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Are we allowed to talk FPL?

    Who are your must have players?

    Pope

    Trippier
    Cancelo
    Gabriel

    Martinelli
    Almiron

    Haaland
    Toney
    Jesus

    Darwin?
    KDB?
    Trossard?

    1. Jonesfromthere
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Not allowed

    2. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Toney? There's a chance that I match his goals/assists in second half of season.

    3. jacob1989
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I ll reply by christmas.

      Only Haaland and trippier must have.

    4. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      In probably going quad-premium

    5. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      How can you consider whether Darwin is a must-have when you have no forward slots?

      1. GREEN IS GOOD
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Hence the '?'

        1. Deulofail
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Hence I said 'consider'.

          He is necessarily a must-not-have if there are three other must-haves.

          1. GREEN IS GOOD
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            No offence, but are you autistic?

            1. Deulofail
              • 9 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              wtf

  28. jacob1989
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    African teams dont like scoring or conceding goals do they?
    3 games, 0 scored, 2 conceded of which 1 was a last second goal.

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      They've all had tough 1st games in which they'd settle for a draw

      1. jacob1989
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Expecting a 0-0 between Cameroon and Switzerland and Ghana vs Portugal now

  29. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Musiala and Gundogan start- who would you bring in for Sané between them?

    1. Jonesfromthere
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Musiala

    2. jacob1989
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Musiala in form but Gundogan always capable of popping up with a goal

  30. Botman and Robben
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Haa, can't sub Sosa on.

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      You have to do it before he plays which I think is fair

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        True

    2. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Why did you think you could...
