With the UCL Fantasy deadline approaching, our resident experts are finalising their chips and transfers.

Here, they reveal their 15-man teams, explain the key decisions behind their selections and discuss their plans for the fourth round and the long term.

Our six-strong team are serial top 1k finishers in UCL Fantasy, so they know their stuff.


Remember, managers still putting the finishing touches to their squads can also use our UCL Fantasy Toolkit.

There’s free stuff in there for every UCL manager but, as ever, Chief Scout Members can dig even deeper.

From player points projections and underlying statistics to the Fixture Ticker, Rate My UCL Team feature and Draft Tool, it’s all here to help you build your Matchday 4 squads.

    Is Justin Kluivert a viable option for this gameweek, and beyond?!

      His starts/mins might be an issue once Kroupi is fit to start after IB

        Would you consider him a good option for the next gameweek away to Ipswich at the very least?!

          Not my type of pick, I'm expecting an early sub again

      Hi TM, forgot to register for LMS. Are there any plans to reopen the league for entries?

      New Konsa owner

    3. Tonyawesome69

      As a Konsa owner, I could keep him until he becomes a rotation issue. I think Saliba will be eased in and lead to Konsa being subbed early. This could lock in an early CS but reduces the chances of DC. There are good alternative defender pick options so moving him on would remove the headache.

    Really annoying, do I bring in Bmouth players (finally) as they keep rising? The players I want rid of have ok fixtures so I could just roll, but is it risky not getting in Tavernier/Evanilson now?

    Raya (Dub)
    Tark / Hall / Calafiori De Cuyper (Thomas*)
    Gros / Rogers / Palmer / Barnes (King)
    Haaland / Jackson

    2 FTs, TIA

      Just do Hall + Barnes to Silva + Tavernier after the CL games
      Or just one
      Or roll

    Get a load of this
    Just added up my best team each week replacing low scoring players with those that I benched
    Keeping the same captain
    I'd be on 698 point & ranked around 160
    I did similar last season & would have won FPL by 38 points
    Obviously I have a strong all round squad but a decent 91k rank
    Huge mistake this week benching Arsenal defence & banking on Isak to bust the clean sheet

      It's not a mistake if the logic was sound - Isak should have had a pen so you can't dwell on it

        Yes but I went against the crowd
        I bought in Isak for Pedro instead of Jackson
        Plus many wouldn't have benched all of their Arsenal defenders & maybe played one or two

    WC11 and want to get a one week punt

    Verb ( Dubs )
    Cala Konsa MDC ( Thomas* / Davis )
    Rogers Cherki Barnes Gomez ( MGW )
    Haaland DCL Jackson

    1 FT / 5.6 ITB

    Do:

    A ) MGW > Gakpo
    B ) MGW > Tavernier
    C ) DCL > Isak
    D ) DCL > Evanilson
    E ) MGW & DCL >> Tav & Isak ( -4 )

    Please help lads!

    With the Saliba return News. Trust Arteta will play Konsa for 45 minutes against Hull then Saliba ON at HT.

    New Konsa Owner here only have myself to blame.

    Start any off the subs?

    Raya
    Gabriel, Calafiori, Muharemovic, De Cuyper
    Rogers, Gross, Tavanier
    Haaland, DCL, Jackson

    Dub, Schade, King, Van Hecke

  12. Stimps

    Best move here?

    A) Hall -> Gabriel (Have Cala, Konsa)
    B) Barnes -> Rogers (Have Palmer)
    C) DCL -> Evanilson (Have Tavernier)

    1. Think I’m doing A but would be -4 if I did it this week. Not sure if worth it but Gvardiol and Hall have been terrible

    Who would you prioritise bringing in for MGW for my team with budget no issue?

    Raya
    Calafiori Kona Mykolenko De Cuyper
    Rogers Palmer Tavernier MGW
    Haaland Jackson

    Barnes David Walle

    Thinking Gross, Kudus, Manzambi etc.
