    Gundogan (c). Stick or teist?

    1. Assisting the assister
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Stick imo

    2. Scratch

      You'd actually considering twisting on 28 points?

      1. Fabreghastly
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        Of course he isn't

        He's a monkey but not a silly monkey.

        Thinking Mbappe will outscore that

      Same boat, twisting to chakveghdgsadve

    when you go Gvardiol and Schar over Sutalo and Akanji

    oh no 😥

    1. azz007
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      I went 1 for 1 Gvardiol and Akanji. Abeicher bad pick too

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

        Same here. But bas decision was going triple Germany attack on LL instead of mittelstadt. Though i did c musiala. Kind of mixed bag

    2. St Pauli Walnuts

      Ditto. Dems da breaks eh.

    Didn’t play my limitless for MD2. When is the best time to do it now?

    1. Assisting the assister
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Md3

      1. azz007
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        Any drafts.

        1. The Mentaculus
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 1 month ago

          Too soon. Need to see state of groups to figure who'll be most motivated, who'll be rotating etc. Will probably not have too many players from group A since Germany & Switzerland can cruise to a draw and secure top 2.

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

      Could go LL in QF and WC in SF.

  5. Rwilliams90
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    I feel dirty getting 7 points from Akanji.

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

      I captained him so gotta go again.

  6. Nice to Finally Michu
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Would you stick on a 9 point captain?

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

      Yes.

      1. Nice to Finally Michu
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        Hm yeah I’m leaning that way too

    2. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      I did with Havertz in Rnd 1 and will likely do the same with Musiala this Round

    3. Scratch
      • 17 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      8 / 9 points is tricky, sensible to stick I suppose, but with 3 more bites at it I'd probably twist for the fun of it

    4. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Same dilemma- stuck on Wirtz 10 points (20) last MD but think going to twist this time

    5. PartyTime
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      I won’t bother chasing 3 points so stick it is.

    6. The Mentaculus
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Tempting to stick just because the low scores last round but really that shouldn't affect the decision at all. 9 is close but I think I'll go twisting again

      1. Ginkapo FPL
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        At best you will get a few more points, but risking 5-6 pts.

        1. The Mentaculus
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 1 month ago

          True, I'm still considering actually. My inclination is always to play for 1st and aim too high for something that'll rocket me right up the MLs but my remaining options are very punty/differential (e.g. Mitrovic today)

          1. The Mentaculus
            • 5 Years
            2 years, 1 month ago

            But this is precisely why I very occasionally do really well but most of the time fall flat 🙂

            1. Ginkapo FPL
              • 15 Years
              2 years, 1 month ago

              There are waaaay more points to be had from a smart bench use than from captain swops. But every tournament the focus is on having multiple captain options. Group think stays tournament to tournament

              1. Ginkapo FPL
                • 15 Years
                2 years, 1 month ago

                Zophar put a fixture list put yesterday which only factored on strength of match. Reality is that players who play early in the matchday can be riskier picks woth high upside and players late in the matchday need to be reliable. Strength of fixture matters far more at the end of the matchday than the start

                1. The Mentaculus
                  • 5 Years
                  2 years, 1 month ago

                  100%. I try to put my punts in the 12 starters & have a bench like Cancelo/Bruno/Ronaldo, although I deviated slightly from that last MD for my lucky Güler punt

              2. The Mentaculus
                • 5 Years
                2 years, 1 month ago

                Yeah I think I'd agree with that. I'm certainly not keen on overloading with premiums to such an extent that you have a 4.5m fodder playing on the final day. Have tried to pick a proper team of 15 and don't mind having some cheaper (C) punts earlier in the MD

    7. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years

      Probably twisting, more fun

    8. St Pauli Walnuts
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Probably should but I'm not with 3 more bites at the cherry.

  7. Lallana_
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Twist on McTominay to Trent, Saka or Kane?

    1. Lallana_
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      McTominay ended up on 7pts

  8. The Knights Template

    Don’t own any players, stick of twist?

    1. panda07

      Stick your jousting stick into your opponent and the twist to inflict maximum pain!

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

        Is it an English stick or a French stick?

    2. St Pauli Walnuts
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Joust.

  9. Ausman
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    38 points for the entirety of MW1. 35 points for the first day of MW2.
    Original plan was to run with my team for the first two MWs, but keep an open mind. After reading several opinions on here, decided to play LL chip. So far,so good.

  10. SpaceCadet
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Similar. 47 MD1, 48 first day of MD2

    1. SpaceCadet
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Rf to Ausman

    2. PartyTime
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Same pts matchday 2. Md 1 was a disaster.

  11. Lallana_
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Trent, Kane or Saka captain?

    Thinking Trent

    1. NZREDS
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Kane for me, TAA might be left out with gordz on the left but hard to predict

      1. PartyTime
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        Trent starts imo

    2. Roshen
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Kane easy

  12. ManUtdFan977
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    musiala 9 points as captain. stick or twist?
    kane/saka, griezmann and lukaku/fernandes to come.

    1. Bushman
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      I'm in the same boat. I stuck with Wirtz on MD1 and it paid off so I'm inclined to do the same with Musiala. Someone would need 2 returms to beat that score, or you're relying on an attacker getting loads of recoveries and a goal. Unlike FPL the top countries have so many goalscores and POTM options it's hard to predict who will get England/Belgium/Portugal's goals. So I think I'l stick

    Trent starts. Source; Southgate

    1. PartyTime
      • 5 Years

      Huge. Could get a belter of a strike from one of those fk

    2. The Mentaculus

      Must admit to an initial suspicion of a 'no context' protest here 😉 but seems legit. Apparently SSN reporting England unchanged

      1. Ginkapo FPL
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        Reading my posts with preconceived ideas?

        No!

        I'm not surprised, but no this is real

        1. The Mentaculus
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 1 month ago

          Oh come on, of course this particular case evokes the previous Trent thing. I'll always check an 'x starts' post that doesn't a have link; not suspicious of you in particular & thought it was alright to joke about it

          1. The Mentaculus
            • 5 Years
            2 years, 1 month ago

            I'm on your side, I promise, I have no issue with you

  14. IPSWICH

    Anyone play their wildcard? I thought you could still make transfers between matchdays with a wildcard?

    1. PartyTime
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      WC active for md 3

    2. The Mentaculus
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      You can. If you go to "my team" screen, look just above your team name & click into the MD3 tab you can make transfers/ activate chips

    3. FPL Brains
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Won't impact MD2

      1. IPSWICH
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        The Wildcard gives you the chance to change your squad with upcoming matchdays in mind. Playing it allows you to make free unlimited transfers – while remaining in budget – and any players you transfer in will stay in your squad once that matchday has finished.

        Hmmm..bug in the system me thinks

        1. The Mentaculus
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 1 month ago

          "Upcoming" being the key word (not current MD). There's no bug, unlike the horrendous World Cup fantasy game - this is a tried & tested format that's been running for Champions' League fantasy for years

          1. fenixri
            • 10 Years
            2 years, 1 month ago

            World cup fantasy was THE worst fantasy ever made. They even cahmged scoring system in middle of matchday.

    Hi All, unrelated to fpl but I'm looking to go to Southampton v Liverpool match on Saturday November 23rd. Liverpool have Champions League matchday 5 the following midweek between 25-27th. My mate thinks there's a possibility of the Prem game moving to Sunday because of tv rights. Anybody have any insight on this? I would have thought it's too early to be moving games etc.
    Cheers,Andy

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

      Hard to know. If CL is on a Tuesday the Southampton game should be on a Friday or Saturday. Could be on Sunday if CL game is on Wednesday. It's a new CL format too so wait until qualifiers are finished and groups decided before making arrangements for Southampton game.

      1. amcgilp

        Yeah will have to wait and see. cheers

      My rival is in top 700 worldwide on 125. I'm 81 after a horrid md1

      1. shirtless
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years

        Crikey! Wirtz(c) fail this time so on to Kane...

        1. azz007
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 1 month ago

          I had Wirtz c md1 kept twisting all.tbe way to Ronaldo

          Wirtz decision

        Your rival = Manchester City
        You = Manchester United

  17. jacob1989
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    I set up my limitless in such a way that 1 have atleast 1 player from each game.. triple Germany and double england the only exception

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Impressive as Germany have been, I'm a bit wary that their group state lends itself to rotation (I know we get the lineups but many fantasy targets may not last longer than 60mins) & a very relaxed game where a draw secures 1st & 2nd for them & the Swiss. I might get one, maybe Füllkrug if he starts, but don't think I would triple up

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

        Yes Havertz and wirtz i need to sub out now. Though i did c musiala

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

        I was talking about the current matchday. For md3 i ll probably wc

        1. The Mentaculus
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 1 month ago

          Oops, yeah that makes more sense

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

            Yep, MD3 is going to be very tricky. Theoretically staying away from teams that are already qualified and will probably rest players makes sense.
            The downside is the available pool of quality players shrinks, and you're taking shots in the dark.
            Should be fun though!

  18. BBC_TF
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    I forgot to make any transfer after MD1. Do I get any of them to roll or are they lost? the system shows 3 FTs for MD3.

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Can roll 1 FT during group stage. But not in the knockouts

  19. Chipmunk
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Ok Havertz captain fail
    Who to switch armband too?
    A. Kane
    B. Bellingham

    1. Johnjo
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Poll suggests Bellingham but that's possibly just based on the last match.
      I captained Gundog and Kane 1st week which didn't work out so then decided to captain Wirtz yesterday and obviously should have stuck to my original GW1 choice!

  20. mikeyboss33
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Stick with Mittelstadt, or cap trent?
