We’ve pulled together all the relevant set-piece data for the World Cup including who the takers are likely to be for every country.
Analysing qualifying and friendlies data we have worked out which nations are the most likely to score from dead-ball situations.
Members can find out the fruits of our research below.
Any advice greatly appreciated please...
GK: Alisson (Uzoho)
DEF: Meunier, Guerreiro, Kimmich, Pavard (Ashraf)
MID: Eriksen, Coutinho, Mueller (C.Sanchez, Bentancur)
FW: Jesus, Mbappe, Mane
Too much brazil?
Smashed it. Done dusted and set.
Schmeichel
Alba Kimmich Meunier Pavard
Willian Isco Meza
Neymar (c) Mertens D.Silva
Uzoho Belhanda Varela Godoy
Smashed it? How many pts did you get
Your keepers play on the same day
Good to know
How many points will you have after day 1? 😉
0 like many others
No major holes/concerns with his team? R1 Bench boost followed by WC
Schmeichel- uzoho
Pavard - trippier - Kimmich - Pouraliganji - Meunier
Eriksen - Ziyech - Rodriguez- Al-Dawsari
Lukaku - Griezmann- Mitrovic
Thanks
a) Mojica + Pickford
b) Trippier + El Kajoul
No love for Oezil? Cheaper than Mueller ...
That’s a differential
Coming back from injury
ermahgerd I can see the content on this article
Stuff of dreams
Well then this looking like my final team:
Muslera
Danilo • Varela • Dalsgaard
Eriksen • Ziyach • Cueva • Meza
Lukaku • Cavani • Werner
(Uzoho / J.Rodriguez / Meunier / Akanji)
Think I’m settled on my attack for sure.
Thoughts on the defence?
Cheers! 🙂
Not sure about Akanji. Rest looks good.
Getting Akanji for GW2-3. Is he not nailed?
Honestly can’t see any other better 4.5m def than him.
Akanji an awesome shout. I am also getting him in for Gw2 & 3
Good to go?
El Kajoui Uzoho
Meunier Trippier Danilo Pavard Varela
James Eriksen Ziyach Ljajic Meza
Lukaku Cavani Jesus
BB1 & WC3.
Very good and similar team to mine:
El Kajoui Uzoho
Meunier Trippier Danilo Pavard Varela
James Eriksen Coutinho Belhanda Inui
Lukaku Cavani Mbappe
Whod you pick?
A: Jesus (SUI/CRC)
B: Mbappe (AUS/PER)
a
I've gone Mbappe for round 1 and then I'll transfer to Jesus for round 2
This
A
Both likely to get subbed but I see a higher ceiling for Jesus and brazil should score more.
A
Cheers lads, will give it some more thought.
What time's the deadline? Website not working for me rn
kick off
3hours50mins from now.
When are you planning to play your bench boost?
Round if 16, extra budget and there should still be a few good cheapies
make sense
GW1
How much time do we have for all of our tinkering?
A little bit less than 4 hours.
Not enough but at the same time, too much
Hazard or coutinho ? Already have neymar,
So just to clarify,
You can manually switch a player in your starting 11 who has only got you 2 points, for a player on your bench DURING the game week, as long as the player you are bringing on has NOT yet played?
And can you do this with as many as you want?
Its decided. Pavard too risky imo. WHO instead?
I've just logged on. Has anything changed regarding the Pavard situation? I'm using my BB so can't really take too much risk.
I think its likely that he plays first match, but too unlikely for my taste if he plays second.
Team done.
Almuaiouf - Uzoho
Meunier - Cahill - Pavard - Varela - Sabaly
Mueller - J Rod - Eriksen - Ljajic - Belhanda
Lukaku - Cavani - Jesus
Would love Trippier over Cahill but just can't find the 0.5m.
GW 2 - Lukaku + Mueller + Belhanda ➡ Kane + Isco + Layun
GW 3 - WC
GW 4 - BB (As budget will be 105m and would mean a better bench)
GW 5 - Maximum captain
Sorted? 😉 🙂
Looks good. I have similar plans about the chips.
-8 to get out Lukaku against Tunisia?
Surprised
May keep Belhanda fwiw.
Kane and Isco in. Don't fancy Lukaku vs a ultra defensive Tunisia team.
Rd 4 means knockouts. Extra time. Stronger teams. BB CS's non existent.
Hmmmm I hadn't taken that into account
you should.
I will.
Morning Spud.
How are you?
Hey Flynny. Ok, you?
Hah! Sorry I got called away.
Back fit thanks.
Should still be plenty of easy fixtures to choose defensive assets from. The extra budget will give me an extra big hitter who could well be 10+ points worth. Willing to take the gamble.
A -8 seems somewhat overkill considering how short the format is
Look ^. May just do a -4.
-4 seems like overkill tbh 😉
😯
Please explain why everyone is taking Meza for the first round? Is there any evidence that he will be in the start for 1st round?
Friendlies....
A. Messi + Carrasco
B. Cavani + Eriksen/Pogba/Jrod
Lukaku vs Hazard
Werner vs Jesus?
Lukaku
Werner
I'm inching towards Brasil outscoring Germany and thus Jesus getting more points than Werner, what say?
Any sudden news about any of the following players:
Pickford, Trippier, Sidibe, Marcelo, Hector, Hakimi, Meunier, Eriksen, JRod, Neymar, Lewandowski, Cavani, Lukaku
Thanks guys!!!
Eriksen just had a baby
Who do you reckon will score more points in round 1?
A) D. Silva classified as midfielder (Portugal)
B) Dzagoev/Golovin (Saudi Arabia, Egypt)
Note: Russia have a dgw in my domestic fantasy league
Meza or Lo Celso?
a) Mojica + Muller + Cavani
b) Trippier + Isco + Werner
B
A
Rate this team, should I beef up my bench a bit?
Navas uzoho
Marcelo trippier kolarov hegazi hakimi
Coutinho carrasco ljajic Sanchez Hamed
Messi Neymar lewandowski
You could switch Marcelo for Danilo and give yourself 1.0
Rest of it? Bench is decent enough?
Muslera
Pavard - Danilo - Meunier -Trippier
Isco - Rodriguez - Carrasco
Messi - Guedes - Lewandowski
(Uzoho - Varela - Meza - Bentancur)
Have 1.0 itb, any ideas on upgrades?
RMT
Muslera - Ozoho
Kimmich - Meunier - Danilo - Varela - Sabaly
J Rod - Coutinho - Carrasco - Belhanda - Aldawsari
Lukaki - Cavani - Werner
Ludwig Augustinsson seems like a decent option, with his team playing against South Korea, and had 4 assists during the qualifiers. Thoughts?
Priced @ 5
Do you think it's worth finding an extra 0.5 to upgrade Cueva to Carrasco?
A: Otamendi Walker Grosicki
B: Dalsgaard Tripier Muller
5 years, 10 months agoAfternoon, everyone!
So, here goes my team:
Muslera Uzoho
Danilo Meunier Varela Trippier Mojica
J.Rod Paulinho Carrasco Cueva Aldawsari
Cavani Werner Lukaku
(with +0.5 in the bank)
Concerns -
1. Paulinho vs Eriksen - Paulinho seems to have a knack of scoring goals & Brasil could be more free-scoring than Denmark (Eriksen)
2. If I do drop him though, makes more sense to include Jesus instead of the strikers - which one should go?
Thoughts?
