    Well here's a new dilemma, my team has done so well that I'm not really sure who to sub off and sub in lol

    I don't think I've ever had this happen to me, I wish going without a keeper was an option.

    1. Louis_Sans_Balls

      If you had to leave one out who would it be?

      Ziyech, Olmo or Bruno?

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        I also have Alba and Hakimi in defense

      2. Baps Hunter

        3 years, 11 days ago

        Ziyech. I had him last md and he did fine for me, but he is not in my team anymore.

        1. Louis_Sans_Balls
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          so leave him out or put him in?

        2. Baps Hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          I checked bookies odds, Olmo and Bruno much more likely to get attacking odds than Hakim.

        Ziyech

      Bra conceding saved me from that "positive" problem.

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

        It'd be the same for me if I didn't have Militao.

        1. Baps Hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          I think I had a defender being subbed off in group stage and he lost his cs points when team conceded later.

          1. Cantonesque
            • 4 Years
            3 years, 11 days ago

            If you go look you'll see he has been awarded those points now.

            1. Baps Hunter
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 8 Years
              3 years, 11 days ago

              Ok, thx.

              3 years, 11 days ago

              Doesn't really help if I subbed him off because thought that he blanked 🙁

    3. FFscouter
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      I've got the same dilemma. For me it's between Bruno, Olmo and Alba. I just think I've got to play the attackers so it comes down to gambling with Alba vs Otamendi who got 4 points.

      If I were you, I'd bench Ziyech.

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        so out of Bruno, Alba and Olmo, who are you leaving out?

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

          Definitely playing Bruno and Olmo and then will have to weigh up Alba vs Otamendi. I think it's dangerous to bench the attackers but that could just be psychological nonsense.

          1. Louis_Sans_Balls
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 11 days ago

            Cheers!

        2. Ambu
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          Play Alba and Olmo, bench Bruno. The sub in Bruno after the Spain match for whoever scored the least of the first 2 players.

          1. Louis_Sans_Balls
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 10 days ago

            Actually I can have Olmo, Ziyech and Alba in. I just have to leave Hakimi out and then sub in Bruno like you mentioned, honestly I kind of blanked on that lol thanks mate cheers!

    Do we have to make our free transfers before the end of this round's matches or do we have up until the first quarterfinal?

    1. Brehmeren
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Free transfers?

      1. I Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Yes. We have 4 of them.

        1. Brehmeren
          • 15 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          Right. Thought you meant unlimited.

    2. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      They nkbefore last match to get players in for quarters
      Wish we could just use transfers for the round given, ie like other w/c fantasy games even if players have played

      1. I Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Right this is what I thought. Thanks.

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      I have 2/4 left, will use those two before last match and after that it's next md and we get new free transfers.

      1. The Iceman
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        This is an absurd amount of transfers all things considered?

        Use 4 now for example and then after tomorrow’s refresh get 5 more?

        Not using my WC during the group phase seems like a complete waste.

        1. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          It's surely a ridiculous amount of transfers. WC for QF and WC still active to get players for semis.

          1. Baps Hunter
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 11 days ago

            There is risk of point deductions, but rules are unclear. I lost 8 pts after WC md2.

            1. GreennRed
              • 14 Years
              3 years, 11 days ago

              How did you lose them? It's no big deal. Will still have 5 FT for semis and 6 for 3rd place/final round. Same 4 teams, a bit of rotation for 3rd/4th place playoff.

              1. Baps Hunter
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member

                It has been corrected. Dunas the dog mentioned that many others had similar issues. I was away during the weekend, so didn't bother to check and therefore saw no mention of it here either.

        2. Baps Hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          It actually was. This is a cup game, however. Half of all teams get eliminated every round, so more transfers are needed than in fpl.

        3. jacob1989
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          WC needed to be used in md2 or md3. md3 was ideal.

          its no use now

          1. Baps Hunter
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 11 days ago

            WC2 was better idea because we had unlimited transfers after md3. I was able to create my team for md2 and then sell everyone I wanted to have dream team also for md3.

            1. jacob1989
              • 3 Years
              3 years, 11 days ago

              yeah but there was lot of rotation in md3. so u couldnt have had that much of dream team

              1. Baps Hunter
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 8 Years
                3 years, 11 days ago

                I still had those free transfers to handle rotation. Transferred Telles in for example to see him subbed off after 54 minutes... Anyway, we basically knew which teams had something to play for and couldn't rotate.

  3. FDMS All Starz
    • 10 Years

    Can I carry on a transfer for next matchday? If so, how many?

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      No.
      You can transfer in 4 players for MD5 though before the MD finishes.

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Probably not. Certainly not more than one anyway. Just make your transfers before last game.

    3. Ambu
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Last line of section 8 in the rules states… “ You will be able to roll over one unused free transfer per Matchday.”

      1. GreennRed
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        I think that's only for the group stage though, but like most if the rules that's open to interpretation:

        During the group stage, one transfer can be carried over into the next group stage matchday however, due to the unlimited transfer limit between the last game of Matchday 3 and the start of the Round of 16 you will not be able to carry a transfer over at this stage.

        1. Ambu
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          But have a look at the last line of section 8.

          1. GreennRed
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 11 days ago

            I see it too! Hopefully you can roll 1 FT for MD5-7. Nothing is clear with this crowd though.

            1. Ambu
              • 11 Years
              3 years, 11 days ago

              Haha. Very true. I’m sure the guy running this FIFA game is in a money league and keeps changing the rules to benefit their team.

    4. Jack Frost
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      I just tried to transfer E. Hernandez ARG for Casemiro BRA and it wouldn't let me. I already have 4 BRA, but the rules say you can have 5 in the Quarters...? It was allowed to transfer from ARG to ENG, when I only have three players now.

      Also, seems like Defenders who leave after 60 or 70 minutes get clean sheet points even if their team is scored on later.
      Example, Acuna ARG, Militao, Danilo BRA and Kounde FRA. Does this get fixed?

      1. GreennRed
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Probably the 5 players per team won't update until MD4 is finished tomorrow.

        1. Jack Frost
          • 15 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          OK, just a refinement. Thanks. Also, seems like defenders keep their clean sheet if subbed out after XX minutes, even if their team is scored on later. From an answer above. So that makes a difference with BRA players.. I'd have to check who always plays 90 min...probably Silva and Marq. who have played 90 each of the three games they started.

      2. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        I think they originally didn't give cs points for those players, but changed rules afterwards and decided to give those points. Amateurs 🙁

        1. Jack Frost
          • 15 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          Would have been helpful if the FIFA F manager put out a little notice on that on the website. You're right... quite a few glitches, must be a pain if you are in the top 50 or so now with a chance to win prizes.

          1. GreennRed
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 11 days ago

            There's no prizes. FIFA are stuck for cash 😉

  4. RogDog_jimmy
    • 5 Years

    Toying with moving captain from Neymar to Bruno or Ziyech.

    Think the upside is worth it at this point.

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      You could gain a point or two or lose three or four. I hope both do better than 9 though!

      1. RogDog_jimmy
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        oh i definitely meant moving from Messi - not Neymar. I don't even have Neybar.

        So the bar is 7 points. Which is only one return away.

        1. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          Ah yeah. Sure risk it for a biscuit for 7 so.

        2. I Member
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          I would stick.

  5. Gazwaz80

    What’s MD5?

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Matchday 5. Quarter Final round.

      1. Gazwaz80
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Cheers GREENNRED…

  6. I Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    What's your ideal team for the next MD? Unsure where I should be aiming to use my transfers.

  7. Belli2007
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Had quite a good game week but now have the choice of whether to ditch points at the risk of more….

    Fernandez now off the bench for Classen and still have Ziyech and Olmo…..one spot is easy as Hernandez comes out for 1 point and thinking Ziyech, but next lowest is Thiago Silva with 4 pts and Olmo hasn’t done much since MD1

    Twist?

    1. The Iceman
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      I think 4 points or below is worth a twist unless the player is absolutely useless. Olmo is a good player.

  8. The Iceman
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Those who still have a wildcard remaining. Any advice on when would be best to use it? For some unknown reason I kept hold of it through the group phase and now I have more free transfers than I actually need.

  9. Koflok
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Saka or di Maria?

  10. krishgorwani
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Had to transfer Sandro to 5 m def, had to choose between militao and Guerrero, ended up choosing Guerrero . now worried dalot is starting. Any chance Guerrero starts instead?

    1. Louis_Sans_Balls
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 days ago

      I think I read somewhere he was a good shout first this MD and good chance of starting. I thought about getting him myself as a differential

    Raphinha's performance tonight was very reminiscent of his Leeds performances. Looked a constant huge threat and had chances but didn't deliver anything in terms of goals and assists.

    Who will go thru…ARG or NED?

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 days ago

      Arg are favourites (2.25), but with current odds I would rather put my money on NED (3.79). I wouldn't be surprised to see 120 minutes and 1-1 if not 0-0.

      1. bso
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 10 days ago

        Agree with you. Arg look shaky with only Messi who can win it for them. I love Leo and wish him all the best.
