The 2024/25 UEFA Champions League (UCL) returns on Tuesday with Matchday 7 – and so does the competition’s official Fantasy game.

Here, Ed, another one of our resident European football doyens and a co-host of the official UCL Fantasy podcast, drops by to give us his team reveal, players to target and hypothetical Limitless draft.

It was another very average week for me in Matchday 6 with 66 points, continuing a frustrating start to this UCL season. I just have to remind myself that there are 17 Matchdays this season, meaning we’re less than halfway through. Lots of points left to play for.

        Assistant Manager Moyes I’m not sure. Although I have 2 FT’s so I could do Alisson > Pickford for the double and use Slot as assistant.

        Not sure it’s worth it though

          I think it's a waste of transfers and Everton's fixtures aren't that good after the DGW, so not sure I'd want to keep Pickford

    Best defender under $5.2 for the long haul? Already own Robinson and Munoz

        Was considering Milenkovic but their next 6 are stout, seems like that ship might have sailed. Bou, Brighton, Fulham, New, Arsenal, City doesn't scream good points for a defender.

        Already have TAA, looking to bring in Gakpo for a third Liverpool player this week. I don't really trust Liverpool to keep as many clean sheets but Konate is a good shout. Leaning towards Kerkez.

    What would you do?

    A) Gabriel --> Trent
    B) Robinson --> Konate
    C) Robinson --> Van Dijk + Bruno --> Mbeumo (-4)

    Leaning towards A for simplicity, but I know Gabriel is guarateed to score as soon as I drop him.

        I think his appeal is massively reduced with Saliba out. Wouldn't really surprise me if they didn't keep a clean-sheet for the next few game-weeks. Ipswich at home has me thinking at least 18 points from Trent.

    Have exact funds to do Sanchez and Gab. to Pickford and Trent for free. A no brainer? Kind of want to keep Gab, as Arsenal fixtures look alright, but Trent just seem so tempting for the next weeks especially with the double.
    Alternative is to do Sanchez to Alison to cover Liverpool defence.

    Raya - Fab
    TAA - Hall - Neco - Colwill* - Greaves
    Salah - Bruno - Palmer - Gordon - Enzo*
    Gakpo - Isak - Wood

    1 FT, 1.5 ITB

    Some problems here, such as Raya, triple Chelsea, and Bruno...would you still roll? Have all my chips left and honestly not sure what to do besides TC Salah during the double
