Win a share of €100k with FanTeam’s UEFA Champions League Fantasy game

The UEFA Champions League group stages kick off this week, with rotation issues aplenty to worry Fantasy Premier League managers for the next few months.

But if you can’t beat them, join them. Or maybe join FanTeam‘s €100,000 Champions League Event – the world’s largest Champions League Fantasy tournament.

After all, why worry about Mohamed Salah’s midweek minutes when they could be helping you to the €20,000 first prize on offer?

And even if you don’t hit the Euro ground running, pay-outs extend all the way through the top 600, with weekly prizes to sweeten the deal as well.

FanTeam are handing out €500 to each Gameweek’s best manager and a massive €1,000 is up for grabs for the highest Gameweek score of the competition.

At the moment, there’s also an Overlay, which means that since the contest is not full yet, FanTeam will still pay out €100,000 anyway – so the expected value of the entry is way higher than the entry price of €25.

The rules of the game are virtually identical to FPL, with one or two scoring tweaks here and there, which you can learn about here.

But time is most definitely on your side when it comes to picking your team as the Gameweek deadline is just ten seconds before kick-off.

Just like with FPL, you can’t have all the big names, however. And because FanTeam‘s contest is starting well after all of Europe’s big leagues are up and running, you’ll be hard-pressed to find the surprise (and cheap) packages that have made the FPL season such a tricky one so far.

As an example, Chelsea wunderkind Mason Mount remains an FPL bargain at £6.5m. But in the FanTeam game, he’s the side’s most expensive midfielder at 8.0m. That makes picking your team a real test of your Fantasy skill.

The good thing is that, as with FPL, there is a colour-coded flag system to help us make our decisions.

Players are grouped into three different categories (see below) and you’ll be able to see, for example, that the injured Lionel Messi is currently red-flagged.

Here’s my initial effort at a starting XI, within budget and with a mix of big names, familiar faces and outright Euro punts playing in a 3-4-3 formation.

GOALKEEPER

Anthony Lopes (5.0m) – Lyon should have enough to emerge from Group G and they’ll kick off with a home match against Zenit Saint-Petersburg. Russian sides are notoriously bad travellers, so Lopes looks fairly well-placed to start the campaign with a decent return.

DEFENDERS

Virgil van Dijk (6.5m) – The centre-half is 0.5m cheaper than both Liverpool full-backs, but with none of the rotation risk. Napoli away will almost certainly be the toughest test of their Group E campaign, but it seems inconceivable that Liverpool won’t be in for the long haul in Europe again this season.

Robin Gosens (5.0m) – Atalanta will make their first-ever group stage appearance on Wednesday when they travel to face Dinamo Zagreb. The Italians prefer attack to defence, so their German left-back Gosens could feature at both ends of the pitch. He’s already scored this season and produced three goals and two assists in Serie A last term.

Progression in Group C is certainly not beyond Atalanta – Man City are vulnerable at the back without Aymeric Laporte, while Zagreb and Shakhtar Donetsk are beatable, particularly on their travels.

Sergino Dest (4.5m) – The cheap and cheerful Ajax right-back was benched at the weekend, which suggests he’ll start at home to Lille. Last year’s semi-finalists are in a group, including Chelsea and Valencia, that they will view with little fear.

MIDFIELDERS

Takumi Minamino (7.0m) – A Red Bull Salzburg midfielder with a serious eye for goal – Minamino has already got four (and as many assists) from just six appearances in all competitions this season. And he managed four goals and two assists in a ten-game Europa League campaign last year. Yes, Group E includes Liverpool and Napoli, but there’s also Genk to play and the Austrians will be a handful at home.

Lorenzo Insigne (8.5m) – The Napoli midfielder has started this season in sparkling form, with two goals and two assists from the first three games of the Serie A season. He has previous in the Champions League as well, scoring three goals in last season’s group stages, against Liverpool and home and away against PSG.

Memphis Depay (8.0m) – Group C, as mentioned above, looks favourable for Lyon, and Depay has made a strong start to the season, with four goals and an assist in four Ligue 1 games. He produced 12 goals and 16 assists in 47 matches in all competitions last term, and set-piece duties add to his appeal.

Kevin De Bruyne (10.0m) – Okay, so Manchester City couldn’t beat Norwich, but they will surely make amends in Group C, even if a trip to Donetsk first up is probably the toughest match they’ll have. De Bruyne didn’t start at Carrow Road, which suggests Pep Guardiola views him as a European essential, and the Belgian maestro looks primed for a big season in 2019/20.

FORWARDS

Cristiano Ronaldo (11.5m) – His Champions League record is so well documented, I’ll leave you to look it up if your jaw hasn’t dropped already. Juventus have a nasty trip to Atletico Madrid first up in Group D, but be prepared to hold on to your jaw one more time when you see Ronaldo’s record against them – 33 appearances, 25 goals and eight assists.
Ronaldo is Euro royalty and well worth the premium price.

Romelu Lukaku (9.0m) – The Belgian has made a promising start to his Italian job, and Inter’s home tie against Group F minnows Slavia Prague looks like a great opportunity to confirm the (perhaps unfair) notion that he’s a flat track bully.

Inter are riding high in Serie A with three wins from three under Antonio Conte, and although much sterner games await in the group, Lukaku can always be sold on when the going gets tougher.

Yussuf Poulsen (7.5m) – Fielding three premium strikers looks virtually impossible without compromising the balance of your side in the FanTeam game, so RB Leipzig forward Poulsen is my penny-pinching punt. He has a goal and three assists from four Bundesliga games this season and scored 15 goals in 31 appearances last term.


FanTeam‘s €100,000 Champions League Event will run for the six rounds of the tournament’s group stages, with €500 going to each Gameweek’s best manager and a massive €1,000 up for grabs for the highest Gameweek score of the competition.

All that for an entry fee of just €25, with a maximum of 20 teams allowed per user.

          for one thing its a legal requirement. as a little thought experiment, have a little think about why that is

        thoughts on this wc team please
        Heaton (button)
        Digne - Matip - Aurier (Rico, Lunds)
        Sterling - Mane - KDB - Son - Cantwell
        Wilson - Pukki (Greenwood)

        Will play Cantwell for all good fixtures then rotate him with the defenders if loss of form or bad fixtures

        1. fgdu

          Like it was thinking of something similar, get abraham

          1. have you seen cyan

            Abraham and Richarlison and Matip > TAA was how it was last night until I remembered Sterling got a hatti vs Watford and Tammy has Pool. What I was thinking of doing is next week do a -4 and do Sterling and Greenwood to Tammy and Rich, then the week after maybe uprgade Matip to TAA. Porbably should have waited another week for the wc but wanted son bad. Losing Sterling this week with that histroy and fixture and Tammy vs pool surely cant be worth it

            1. fgdu
              • 10 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              don''t lose sterling this week

            2. Shineonme

              Crazy getting rid of Sterling. You're funeral.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Needs Mount or Tammy for Chelsea’s good run of fixtures post this week - Tammy over Wilson

      6. Fpl Richie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Mentioned on last page - but do Chelsea fans have a view on where Hudson-Odoi will fit in?
        Very talented so I assume he'll get a starting spot once he recovers match fitness

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Imagine when everyone is fit it will look something like this with reserves below

          Kepa
          Azpi Rudiger Tomori Emerson
          Kante RLC
          CHO Mount Pulisic
          Abraham

          Caballero
          James Zouma Christensen Alonso
          Jorginho Kovacic
          Willian Barkley Pulisic
          Giroud

          1. dunas_dog
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Presumably Pedro over Pulisic in main team

            1. Miguel Sanchez
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Quite possibly, Pedro looked very good but hopefully Pulisic steps up soon.

              1. dunas_dog
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 8 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                Is Tomori an option at 4.5 m or too much of a rotation risk?

                1. Miguel Sanchez
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 7 Years
                  4 years, 6 months ago

                  I think he may be benched if he makes a serious error in a game to protect him somewhat but if you are on a WC or have a FT to burn think he may be worth going for.

                  1. dunas_dog
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 8 Years

                    Thanks- want to release cash with sale of VVD so will consider

          2. Captain_Shirokov
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            If Lampard goes with 4-2-3-1. May try 3 at the back for a while, we struggled with the double pivot in midfield in the earlier games

            1. Miguel Sanchez
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              352

              Kepa
              Azpi Tomori Rudiger
              James Kante Mount RLC Emerson
              Abraham and one from (Pulisic/CHO/Pedro)

              1. Captain_Shirokov
                • 5 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                yep, eventually

          3. EMBOLOFAN
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            curiously his record at rw is terrible compared to lw. havent looked into it any further than that but i imagine there’s mitigating circumstances

            1. Fpl Richie
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 8 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Interesting. Seemed to get a lot of goals in Europa - I suspect he might be used in those games first anyway.

              1. Miguel Sanchez
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                Problem is its Champions League and a handy group of Valencia, Ajax and Lille.

          4. Fpl Richie
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Is CHO a threat to Mount? Could do a jazzy double up.

            1. Miguel Sanchez
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              I think it would be both when fully firing

              1. Fpl Richie
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 8 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                Great - might be an alternative to Abraham (have Haller in his spot)

                1. EMBOLOFAN
                  • 5 Years
                  4 years, 6 months ago

                  im definitely open to the idea of having all 3. chelseas fixture funrun goes all the way through to gw15

      7. hustler7
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Currently experiencing my worst start to FPL and sitting overall rank 2.9million.

        Anyone got any pointers for this lot? Still have my WC in tact so it might be worth playing?

        Current team:

        Heaton/Pope
        VVD/Soyuncu/Montoya/Kelly/Lundstram
        KDB/Sterling/Mount/Salah/Denplonker
        Kane/Pukki/Greenwood

        Any help appreciated.

        1. mixology
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          I’d do a kane and dedendocker to son and Abraham type of thing. Downgrade one of your keepers if you can’t afford it . That’s just on first glance

          1. hustler7
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Who would you transfer out of midfield? Only have 1FT this week too.

        2. Brosstan
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Same boat. Can't remember a worse start even back when I didn't care about FPL at all. Team looks good. Kane to Auba for me

      8. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Playing 3 in defence would this be shocking lol?

        Aurier Ota Soy Rico Lund

        1. EMBOLOFAN
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          yeah

          1. Dynamic Duos
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            I mean I happy with Spurs and City defence if Aurier can nail that position down. Anyone better than Soy at 4.5m?

            1. EMBOLOFAN
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              it's been 2 years now and aurier hasn't nailed that position down. soy's a perfectly good choice in the long run. the best value defenders aren't usually the cheapest ones. taa has more key passes than any player in the league

        2. Brosstan
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Dropping TAA is asking for trouble

      9. KUNingas
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Robbo + Martial + Ings + Greenwood -> Rico + Mount + Pukki + Abraham (-8) too much?

        1. Over Midwicket
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          WC

        2. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          WC available?

          1. KUNingas
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Yeah I have

        3. KUNingas
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Just realised that Martial + Ings -> Mount + Pukki could be enough

          1. Miguel Sanchez
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            No need to get Abraham for another hit this GW. Just stick with these moves for free

              • 8 Years

        Any suggestions for improving this defence?
        Got 0.4 in the bank and 1 free transfer. Don’t mind taking a hit.

          1. Mr. Grv
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            what about tomori , Chelsea defence is bad but atleast he is cheap chelsea defender ?

            1. Over Midwicket
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 12 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              They concede a minimum of 2 goals per game. Avoid.

      14. NUFCAndrew
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Most important players to own right now?

        1. EMBOLOFAN
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          same ones as always

        2. Mr. Grv
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          kdb, salah/mane ,pukki, AAT

        3. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Son, Auba, Abraham, Pukki

        4. The Ejiptian King
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Too difficult to answer, there's loads of great options at the moment, too many to own.

        5. Over Midwicket
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          All the players who scored this week

      15. mixology
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Does anybody on here go with only one premium (over 10 million) and balance out the rest of the squad?

        I really can’t find a team I’m happy with using two (or 3 premiums). That being said, I’ll see teams with 3 premiums and a few mediocre/rubbish options in the starting 11 and they’ll still outsource my team when the premiums haul.

        I feel like you can only captain one, right? Think I’ll stick with it (sterling) but have really been struggling the last two seasons

        1. have you seen cyan
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          was toying with it if Pepe had shown some promise and then I would have had Son, Pepe, KDB and Salah. But Pepe is trash apparently and ruined that idea, it looked so exciting 🙁
          Damn u Pepe

          1. The Ejiptian King
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            He really has looked terrible so far.

            1. Shineonme
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Pepe looks the most overpriced player so far and KDB looks the best value player so far.

        2. EMBOLOFAN
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          i prefer having 2 premiums if their fixtures rotate well (specifically salah and sterling) but, while uncommon, i think having 1 permacapped is much better than spending 33-35m on 3 players

        3. Ron_Swanson
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          You can definitely only have one captain.

        4. All de Gea no iDier
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Yep. I went with only one £10m+ player - Salah. Went with KdB over Sterling and brought in Son after his suspension as part of the longer term plan.

          So far I have had five pretty consistent GWs scoring between 52 and 70 so no dramas either way.

        5. Brosstan
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          I was talking about this all pre season but ended up deviating before season start. Salah perma cap with mid price options around him would have been a lot better than what I ended up with...

      16. pol
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        A- Taylor + Walker + Greenwood > Rico + Soy + Barnes (-4)
        B- Walker + Greenwood > Lowton + Barnes

        A option gives me 0.2 in the bank so I can go Haller > Tammy next week even with price rises

      17. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        To release funds for Tammy and reduce Liverpool defence VVD to

        A Tomori
        B Aurier
        C Soyuncu
        D Anyone better at 4.9 m or under?

        1. Mr. Grv
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          You really want to remove arguably the only defender worth owning this season ?

          1. Cok3y5murf
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            That's TAA

            Keeping TAA

          3. Mr. Grv
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            My mistake

        2. Fpl Richie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Soy is the only nailed one - but if you can stomach rotation Aurier has the upside

      18. Atimis
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Current team is in a free fall, would you WC it:

        Ryan/Button
        TAA/Digne/WB/Lund/Rico
        Salah/Sterling/KDB/Mount/Lanzini
        Pukki/Barnes/Greenwood

        To:

        Pope/Button
        TAA/5.0/4.5/Soy/Lund
        Mane/Son/KDB/Mount/Hayden
        Auba/Abraham/Pukki

        ?

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years

          No team basically sound- just a bad week for a lot of us!

        2. g40steve
          • 6 Years

          Everyone is the same my team looks good on the screen just cannot catch a break at present?

          1. villa_til_i_die
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Sometimes best to stick. I spent last season chasing the points and finished about 800k!

        In normal working life if you are crap at your job you get removed or fired.
        Crazy world of premiership football you get huge wage rises & praise?

        DDG is not the goalie he used to be......

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          *Man United aren't the club they used to be

          1. g40steve
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            They still pay huge sums that are mind boggling to mere mortals.

        2. Who are all Lukakus
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Wait 1-2 seasons so judge him.

        3. EMBOLOFAN
          • 5 Years

          in normal working life you aren't an asset with a multi-million pound transfer value

      20. LordEllison
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        2 FT and 0.2 ITB abit stuck on what transfers to make, any ideas? Thanks!

        Pope Button
        VVD Digne Zinchenko AWB Lundstram
        Salah Sterling KDB McGinn Dendoncker
        Wilson Pukki Greenwood

        1. Who are all Lukakus
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Dendonker to Cantwell and save 1 FT

          1. villa_til_i_die
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            That’s what I’m thinking!

      21. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        This WC to top heavy and what to change?

        Pope
        Aurier Otamendi Lundstram
        Mane Sterling Son Mount
        Aubameyang Abraham Pukki

        Button Soyuncu Rico Dendoncker

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Lack of TAA would be the only issue. Great otherwise

          1. Dynamic Duos
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            So Wilson and TAA over Aubameyang and Rico then?

            1. Miguel Sanchez
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Think you need to work out your captains for the next few GWs. If Auba features heavily then it's a no.

              1. Dynamic Duos
                • 10 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                Great point I will go with what I have then , Sterling and Aubameyang as captains.

              2. Weeb Kakashi
                • 8 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                So who do you prefer then?
                I mean in terms of rotation caps.

                1. Miguel Sanchez
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 7 Years
                  4 years, 6 months ago

                  I can see a decent Auba/Son captaincy rotation in the next 4 GWs.

                  1. Miguel Sanchez
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 7 Years
                    4 years, 6 months ago

                    So I prefer Auba/Rico and would consider Sterling to KDB to finance TAA

                    1. Dynamic Duos
                      • 10 Years
                      4 years, 6 months ago

                      Things to look at thanks.

                  2. Weeb Kakashi
                    • 8 Years
                    4 years, 6 months ago

                    As far as my WC goes it comes to
                    Sterling Mane Sterling Wilson

        2. Eleven Hag
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Defense is too weak imo with rotation risks to aurrier and ota

        3. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Like it
          Can do Auba Aurier to Taa Vardy around gw9

          1. Dynamic Duos
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Love it

        4. Weeb Kakashi
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Yours is good. How about this though.

          Pope
          TAA Tomori Soyuncu Lundstram Rico
          Sterling Mane KDB Eriksen Mount
          Wilson Pukki

          3 atb. They rotate nicely.

          Thoughts??

          1. Dynamic Duos
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Yeah I really like this 2 but want a premium striker.

        5. panda07
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          It's a nice team but you could be in trouble if defenders start firing soon. I'd have at least 1 premium defender

        6. Shineonme
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          No TAA on WC is a mistake imo

      22. Weeb Kakashi
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Is Auba a better option than Sterling in the next 4??

        1. Who are all Lukakus
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Auba can score same as Sterling but Auba + mid price MID

        2. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Possibly - Sterling will get his rest at some point and it may be in a more winnable home game.

        3. All de Gea no iDier
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Auba will probably play all 4 where as Sterling - anybody's guess.

        4. EMBOLOFAN
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          arguably but i think much depends on where auba plays when laca returns (was out wide vs burnley)

        5. Shineonme
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Sterling is better

      23. Twisted Melon
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Sterling and Greenwood to Aguero and Cantwell -4?

      24. Cookie Kid
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Are price changes currently 1.15am UK time?

        1. panda07
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Around 2:10am uk time

      25. A19
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Hi, is this worth a WC?

        VVD -> TAA
        Digne -> Soyuncu
        Montoya -> Rico
        McGinn -> 4.5 bench fodder
        Greenwood -> Abraham

        This would give me the following team:

        Pope (Button)
        Taa Ota Soyuncu (Lundstram Rico)
        Salah Sterling KdB Mount (fodder)
        Pukki Abraham Haller

        1. A19
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Have a feeling the WC could be more useful later, only 5 changes. But this is a shift in formation as I feel the 3 up front is needed

        2. EMBOLOFAN
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          no it isnt. you dont need abraham this week anyway. aside from that you're switching round a bunch of sub 6m players and changing one liverpool defender for another

          1. A19
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Cheers!

      26. Energetics
        • 9 Years

        Pope Button

        TAA Digne Ota Mings Lundy

        Salah KDB Mount McGinn Cantwell

        Aguero Pukki Barnes

        Thoughts on doing Aguero to Aubameyang this week and then Barnes to Abraham next?

        Anything else stand out?

        1. Shineonme
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          I wouldn't

      27. Weeb Kakashi
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Pick one
        A Sterling Eriksen
        B Auba Son

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          B

        2. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          B by so much for me

      28. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I did my wc at this point last season when I was flying just to bring in Hazard, this time it is the Aubameyang and Son wc.

      29. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        On WC:

        A) TAA and KDB
        B) Otamendi and Mane

        1. panda07
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Probably a but it's close

        2. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Awww wow this has just give me food for thought, it has to be a

          1. Miguel Sanchez
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Yup - think its A too.

            Looks like I am looking at one of Sterling or Mané only

            1. Dynamic Duos
              • 10 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Yeah and it has to be Sterling imo and I'm a Liverpool fan lol, I think fixtures say Sterling and he can be easily swapped to Mane when we see fit.

            2. Dynamic Duos
              • 10 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              But then is it Mane and Wilson or Sterling and Abraham?

        3. Shineonme
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          A

      30. panda07
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Had a shocking start to this season. I'm currently at 1.1m OR but I think my team is ok bar 1 or 2 players. What do you think my priorities should be?

        A) Mina> Ota
        B) Upgrade Ings (would need two transfers to do this)
        C) Something else

        Pope
        TAA VVD Digne Mina
        Mane Sterling KDB Martial Cantwell
        Pukki

        Button Lundstram Ings Wickham
