The World Cup party continues at London Waterloo for talkSPORT’s ultimate fan experience.

Here, the sports radio station is screening EVERY match of the tournament inside this 1,000-capacity indoor venue, running through to the final on Sunday 18 December.

In the same location as Fantasy Football Fest, we are delighted to announce that the Fanzone will host a Scoutcamp meet-up on the evening of Friday 9 December.

Be part of talkSPORT's incredible World Cup Fan Zone

This means that Fantasy Football Scout staff and some recognisable faces and names from the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) community will be in attendance from around 6pm.

The Friday night quarter-final sees either Group A’s winner or Group B’s runner-up go up against Group C’s winner or Group D’s runner-up.

In other words, it could be an England match, should they fail to top their group!

Regardless of the teams, the talkSPORT Fan Zone promises to be the best World Cup fan experience in the UK, offering giant screens, Q&As with some familiar faces and live radio broadcasts. Plus there will be lots of food and drink on offer.

So come along and have a good night with us, we’d be delighted to see you.

Tickets are on sale HERE and start at just £10, which includes a FREE drink with admission.

    WC team. Thoughts?

    Nop / Schm

    Dumf / Raum / Rudiger / Mæhle / Aguerd

    Kudus / Erik / Musia / Ziyech / Olmo

    Messi / Mbappe / Gak

    Can’t work out who to cap? Gakpo seems safe but maybe Dumf is a better better? Attacking plus a possible CS?

    If you activate your WC can people in your league see you have activated it straight away? Or just until after the first game starts?

      I would assume the former as the game is sh*t

        Yup I thought so also, going to have to activate it last minute so they can’t copy! Worst fantasy game I’ve ever played

    Suddenly MD3 start. The last one i saw MD Open at 22H.

      I think there is gap between 2 closing and 3 starting. People on a wildcard in 2 needed to use it before 2 closed. There’s no real reason for the gap, but this game doesn’t need reasons. It does what it wants.

        I guess it’s so people can play their chips for 3 before it starts as they can’t do it during 2 or after 3 starts.

  5. Why Always Me

    Do we only get two transfers? Thought it was 3

    1. Jack Frost
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I used WC on MD2 and only have two transfers now, but it's early evening.. I doubt an unused transfer would carry forward from MD1., but who knows.

    2. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      You can carry 1 FT from previous MD.

      1. bobinjo
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Well i did and now somehow it's gone. Only have two showing.

  6. dunas_dog

    Just seen I have 13 of the Scout pick players in MD3…..

    1. Krafty Werks
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Only 7 here!! Not sure if that's good or bad?!

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

      11/15 for me....and i didn't even look at them before i did my WC.
      Yikes.

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Sane

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

      Musiala for me. Sane don't even start.

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

      Musiala.

    Has anyone had a chance to peruse the FantasyWC Reddit forum? So many complaints lol

    Btw, this group has been much better at staying on top of hacks and glitches etc. makes me appreciate the community we have here that much more, Cheers!

    Still trying to decide when to play Power Cap chip. According to the rules the 3rd place game is counted along with the Final, I think that's new this time so that could change my strategy also the fact that we can only change Cap once.

    Normally I wait till the later rounds Semis/Finals when it's harder to predict and rotate the armband but fewer chances for big haul of course. But if it's true that the 3rd place game counts that could be high scoring...hmm...decisions...decisions...

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

      I'm doing it in the Final/3rd Place I think.
      Also loading up on 3rd place game attackers/ final defenders most likely.

    2. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Going with Last 16 round.

    3. bobinjo
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Any reason not to play it this round?

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

        No. Going with 12th man this MD but there's no reason not to use power captain this round. Slim chance of getting more points from a captain that plays extra time. I'm hoping to have a decent 15 for last 16 and want to eliminate the chances of captaining two turkeys!

    What's all this about WC now before GW3 starts in an hour?

  11. FFscouter
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Just to clarify, the deadline for this MD is 15:00 tomorrow and we'll get 2 free transfers to react to lineups?

    1. putana
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      you can use those two transfers anytime during the matchday

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

        Thanks.

  12. RogDog_jimmy

    Here's my MD3 wildcard.
    Managed to avoid damage from MD2 WC crews - hoping knowing the lineups for MD3 will outweigh the whole double WC thingy...

    Noppert, Al-Owais
    Raum, Dumfries, Estupinan, Maehle, Alba
    Olmo, Musiala, Ziyech, Fernandes, Coman
    Messi, Gakpo, Morata

    Keen on Foden, Gundogan, Gnabry...
    Mbappe / Messi is a tough one for me. Would like both...if Mbappe is starting I might flip to him.

  13. putana

    have players been getting points for winning pens? still not there for bruno

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

      I think they gave one to Alba as a regular assist in MD1. But haven't seen any others in my team (Bruno MD2, Lewa MD1)

    2. lugs
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      i got Raum's points about a week later, it will probably be the same for Bruno

  14. Holteenderinthesky
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Annoyingly messed up this wildcard. I thought my team would revert back to Matchday 1. I'm now stuck with a team where half won't play and have none from teams I want. Great

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

      it might not be as bad as you think, teams still want to win their group and every player still wants to play

  15. TheJoker
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Does anyone know if the budget will be 100M or 105M for knockout stages?

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

      Think it's 100m but have a hazy memory of the rules saying 105m before they were 'up'graded.

  16. TheJoker
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Ok, anyone who is sure if it is 100M or 105M?

    1. Herger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Think it might be 100m but I’m not basing that on anything and am in fact not even playing

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

    Having read Equipe's article, in which they are expecting 5 or 6 changes, this appears to be their predicted lineup:

    Mandanda
    Pavard / Konaté / Varane / Camavinga
    Fofana / ??? (Tchou more likely)
    Coman / Griezmann / Mbappé
    Thuram (or Giroud)

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

      Seems to be in most predicted lineups. I still went with Gakpo 12th man cos he looks more nailed on.
