    Glad I went with Alba in fanteam, crazy numbers for Spain recently especially with Azpi being defensive on the other flank today

      I have him too, pulled out the budget hack for him, we'll see how many pots he gets us and see if it was worth it

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        already showing 3 actually

        1. Paqueta Rice
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          I done the same. Then I wanted to sell Sane for -3 points but it kept automatically putting Bruno F on to my bench and I couldn’t change it so I didn’t make that move.

            • 7 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            I tried to buy Bruno but it gave me an error, guess I didn't have enough $$$

      2 assists in 30 mins now

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Wohhooo! wish I was getting goal pts too 🙁

  2. Louis_Sans_Balls

    3 years, 4 months ago

    So going off of first round thus far, these seem to be the favorites, Spain, France (even with all the injuries and poor side Aus), England
    We shall see how Belgium and Brasil do
    Why? because they can actually score goals!
    Of course KSA to win it all obviously 😉

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Brazil still my favs. The most complete side.

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        we shall see 😉

        1. Piggs Boson
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          A favourite is still unlikely to win.

          I think opta calculated Brazil as favs with just a 15% chance of winning it. Tournaments are hard.

          Small margins in the knock-outs...

      2. Botman and Robben
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        France for me.

        1. Piggs Boson
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Kante a big loss.

          Is Varane almost fit? They looked shaky at the back without him.

          1. TanN
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            Shaky at the back?

            Here's a list of French CBs of the top of my head;

            Saliba
            Konate
            Upamecampo (yk who I mean)
            Kounde

            Etc etc

            1. Piggs Boson
              • 14 Years
              3 years, 4 months ago

              Upamecampo and Konate looked shaky, yes. Australia caused them a lot of problems early on. Their goal was too easy...

              Maybe they should give Saliba a go.

  3. GoonerByron
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone know why Raum hasn’t been given any points for winning the penalty for Germany?

    1. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      No one’s been getting points for winning penalties. The scoring is a sh*tshow.

  4. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Change captain from Messi to:

    A) Kdb
    B) Bruno F
    C) Nunez
    D) Stick

    1. GoonerByron
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      KDB

    2. Mozumbus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      D
      If captain returned no need to twist
      Although I supported twisting from Kane to Messi, as an exception, due to perceived easy opponent. Even that proved wrong.

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        lol 2 pt difference

        1. Mozumbus
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Even that'd go away since Messi to get 1 point for shots on target when the feed gets corrected hopefully

          1. Louis_Sans_Balls
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            do we know for a fact it's actually getting corrected? did they actually post this somewhere for reference?

            1. Mozumbus
              • 4 Years
              3 years, 4 months ago

              See right at the top of your team (mobile version):
              Please note: Over the coming days, some scores will be subject to minor adjustments as we reset historic points to reflect changes to our data feeds. All future points will reflect the new data feeds.

                Thanks mate, cheers!

    3. Louis_Sans_Balls
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I'm sticking myself. not throwing away 12 pts and shouldn't be 13?

  5. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Alba 2 more points for winning a penalty

    1. Rinseboy
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      budget hacked Alba in! wahook

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        right there with ya mate! best move I made thus far, I mean cheat 😉

  6. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Ferran on penos

  7. putana
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    costa rica wont even get a shot on target

  8. No Kane No Gain
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Who is most likely to get key passes/tackles made point when they are added on out of Musiala and De Paul?!

    Need to transfer one out for KDB before Belgium start.

    1. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      They have played already so you won’t get KDB points for the Canada game

      1. No Kane No Gain
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah sorry I actually meant substitute out…

        1. Fifa las vegas
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Oh well in that case, I’m still not even sure, Musiala appeared to have a lot of decent chances so could get shot points but maybe less so key passes/tackles than De Paul. Not at all sure though

          1. No Kane No Gain
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            Yeah thanks. I’ve taken out Musiala as midfielders don’t get shot points

  9. fuocooo
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    why are not they giving points for winning a penalty ?

    valencia , lewandowski didnt get

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      they trying to fix the issues with points not added but no idea when that will be. Might even be at the end of Matchday 1

      1. GoonerByron
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        How is that any use when you put your players on the bench that won a penalty because they’re only on 1/2 points

        1. Louis_Sans_Balls
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          total rubbish!

  10. Louis_Sans_Balls
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    I guess at this point the pts we see are the pts we're getting with this fantasy crap right? I mean I don't see there be any recalculations at this pt correct?

    1. Louis_Sans_Balls
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      This actually isn't a reply fail, just great minds think alike lol

  11. chocolove
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Alba didnt get winning penalty points. Fumming!

    1. Louis_Sans_Balls
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      he's still on 3 🙁

    2. No Kane No Gain
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yet

  12. Louis_Sans_Balls
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    with my luck Sarabia will come on and score a goal too lol

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      May do. Costa Rica might as well go all out at 60-70 minutes to try and snatch something.

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        goal differential will doom them as well

      2. Ask Yourself
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Damage limitation for them surely

  13. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Differential in my leagues has been
    Saka
    Cheap keeper that did well (5/6 of them)
    Giroud

    1. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Nice pick with Giroud. A little disappointed I didn’t go with Torres, but Saka(C) saving me.

  14. Tomsk
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    What counts as ‘key pass’ for midfielder?(midfielders get a point for every two key passes)

    1. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      maybe assist the assist-er points

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Definition from opta:
      A key pass is the final pass or pass-cum-shot leading to the recipient of the ball having an attempt at goal without scoring

      1. Tomsk
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks for that Revival. De Bruyne could get a lot of them so think I’ll switch captain to him.

  15. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Death by one thousand passes

    1. Louis_Sans_Balls
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Tiki Taka lives on!

  16. The Tinkerman
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    I have KDB on my bench and when I try to sub him on the website just says “error”

    This game is busted 🙁

    Guess I’ll just bin it off and wait for FPL to return

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      And no I’m not making an invalid formation by trying to sub him on, would be 352

    2. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Who you taking off?

      1. The Tinkerman
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Pavard

        1. The Tinkerman
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          But I’ve also tried it with midfielders and also get an error

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      log out and back in. worked for some others on here who had issues.

      1. The Tinkerman
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Didn’t work sadly

    4. Mambino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      you still have an hour before kick off - keep trying

  17. fenixri
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Are we sure that we will have unlimited transfer throigh whole matchday if we activate wc and bot just before 1st kick off?

    Seems overpowered with transfers during matchday. You dont even need to save it for QFs with all fts we get during matchdays.

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      So many errors in this game I wouldn’t bank on any aspect of it working as you expect tbh 😀

    2. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Well some people have been doing that budget hack thing and it’s working so don’t see why this wouldn’t

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        The thing is has anyone actually tested this yet? Seems like the risk would be bigger if you get stuck with a team you can't change

    3. Tomsk
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      When they changed points for a midfielders goal from 5 to 7 I lost all faith in this game (my team and captain decisions would’ve been different)

  18. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Spain in the first half had the most passes completed by any team in any half of any game in World Cup history

    1. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      even more than the xavi iniesta era?

      1. Freshy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        they had a little better runners

  19. nerd_is_the_werd
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Ferran is a pretty good player.
    Shame it didn't work out at City.

  20. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    That's the worst defending I've seen in a long time.

    Costa Rica are Shitttteeeeee

    1. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      NZ should have made it instead of them. There was a lot of controversy in that playoff game

  21. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Torres apperance point for playing 62 minutes despite being subbed off in the 57th minute.

  22. putana
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    i honestly dont care about the bugs in the game. The annoying thing for me is classifying way too many players are forwards.

    How many people in their right mind are going to pick players like torres, raphinha, dembele, etc when there are so many forward options like messi, neymar, mbappe, kane, nunez, ronaldo who are all on set pieces as well

    1. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      This is the way

    2. RogDog_jimmy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I'm not doing anything tricky and having a fun time. in a little cash league with some folks so trying my best.

      Decided to swerve Neymar & Messi - ended up with Lewdowski and Ferran instead.
      If that dumbo didn't miss his penalty I'd be in pretty good shape.

    3. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Agree. if you're going to switch the wide forwards to strikers, then you have to increase the number of slots available.

      I'd quite like a squad size of 544 in FPL, to reflect the new 433 era of football. It's still stuck in the 442 age.

  23. RogDog_jimmy
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Nice move this morning - Morata > Torres (c)
    Alba doing bits for me.

    Good game this one.

    1. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Nice

  24. Original Sin
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Budget hack worked for anyone? I need to try tonight

    1. Louis_Sans_Balls
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yes, it's how I got Alba in

      1. Original Sin
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Ok thanks

  25. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    I had Messi captain before the matchday started and it won’t allow me change it now? Saying since I changed my locked captain already (which I didn’t) that I can’t?

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Now it worked when I logged out and back in. Weird

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        This game is littered with bugs, total sh$tshow

  26. Louis_Sans_Balls
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Spain are making it look easy, abhorrent defending by CR, not sure if Spain is that good or CR that bad or a mixture of both

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Costa Rica have been awful. But don't think we'll learn how much was down to Spain until the next game.

      Germany v Spain going to be interesting.

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        even Japan could be a better marker especially after today. I mean how do you get beat from a throw in on the near post? Talk about piss poor defending, was Germany trying to lose that game? Garnby passing up a chip shot, madness

  27. TanN
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Controversial prediction. But I can see Wales beating England, topping the group, and making it to the quarters.

    1. Louis_Sans_Balls
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      gutsy but don't see it, not with this England squad maybe in the past yeah. I could see a draw tho since they know themselves so well but that's it.

    2. Mambino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      possible Wales beat England if England beat the USA. If not then it's unlikely IMO

    3. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      England might rotate for that third game, but still think they'll be enough for Wales.

      Phillips, Henderson, Foden, Grealish, Rashford are England's reserve players...

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        unless they lose on purpose depending on who they face in the next round but I don't really see them doing that either

    4. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Wales sat back and absorbed vs US. England will be clinical. Dont think Wales has a chance.

    5. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      No.

    6. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I see Iran beating Wales 1-0

  28. nerd_is_the_werd
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone else notice the fans' volume went down midway during Spain v Costa Rica. What was that?

    1. Brehmeren
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Qatari leaving

    2. Pedersen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      The paid fake Qatar fans to set the mood, had another game to be at

  29. Dragon Arcana
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    The Sarabia to Gavi transfer glitching half hour before kick off has really pissed me off can’t lie

    1. Louis_Sans_Balls
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      what's wrong with Sarabia anyway, everyone seemed certain he would play?

  30. Louis_Sans_Balls
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Goal party! even Morrata gets in, should've gone all out Spain FML
