Sponsored by FanTeam


You won’t have to pay a penny to enter FanTeam‘s latest Freeroll event, which gives Fantasy managers the chance to compete for a £1,000 prize pool on Boxing Day.

To the layman, this is a Fantasy tournament that effectively gives entrants the chance to build a six-a-side ‘Free Hit’ squad for the first five matches of Gameweek 19:

There is a jackpot of £420 up for grabs and prizes awarded down to 12th place.

The deadline is at 15:00 GMT on Sunday.

Head to the FanTeam lobby and look for the ‘FANTEAM’S FESTIVE BOXING DAY FREEROLL – [BIG THANKS TO ALL OUR PLAYERS]’ link (seen below) to enter:

SCOUT PICKS FOR GAMEWEEK 19

£1,000 on offer in FanTeam's free-to-play Boxing Day Fantasy event 4

HOW TO PLAY: A BRIEF GUIDE

Different from the usual squad-based games, FanTeam managers are given a budget of €90m to build a team of six players from any position. A maximum of three players per club is permitted.

These half-dozen assets then score points as they would in FPL (more below) based on their on-field achievements.

Here are some notable things to consider in the otherwise easy-to-play game:

  • There is no bench or manual substitutes; instead, there is a ‘Safety Net’ feature. If a player in your Fantasy team isn’t in the starting XI for their side, they will automatically be substituted for the next priced player from the same position and club.
  • A ‘Stacking Penalty’ is given if you have two or more defensive players from the same club and they keep a clean sheet. One point is deducted for each additional asset that you select from the same side.
  • Captains and vice-captains score 1.5 and 1.2 times the points respectively – but also cost 50% and 20% more!

HOW DOES THE SCORING WORK?

FPL managers looking for a way to make their knowledge pay will have no trouble picking up FanTeam‘s Gameweek 19 Freeroll, with its familiar scoring system.

Think of it as FPL without the bonus points, with a few other exceptions such as shots on target, winning/losing impact points and ‘stacking penalties’ – detailed in the graphic above.

      Think Gallagher might have Covid. That's the rumour anyway.

    What is the best order for these subs? Playing 3-5-2.

    A) Maupay

    What chance do we think ESR will play? Is he just getting dropped for Martinelli or something else?

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I dont think he starts

      Did you watch that movie 🙂

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        I got half way through and was really enjoying it but there were too many “distractions “. Will watch properly in a few days. Such a good cast.

      Play? 95%
      Start? Doubt it

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years

        Good point.

    3. POGON 1948
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I think he'll be subbed on this game and start GW20

      1. Grande Tubarão
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Agree with this

      2. Amartey Partey
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Same

    4. Amartey Partey
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Might be good for him to come in in 70th minute against tired Norwich side.

  6. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Best option please:

    1. Salah Raphinha Watkins >> Son Bowen Ronaldo [-8] (play 10)
    2. Salah Raphinha Watkins David >> Son Bowen Ronaldo Broja [-12] (play 11)
    3. Free Hit

    Cheers

    I'm sure I'm not alone in being currently very torn between using FH or just a -4 (to get in Bowen & CR7).

    A postponement (or two) would be useful to force my hand at this point - lest I sit here procrastinating until 13:30

    1. Eh, just one more thing ...
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Don’t waste a FH

    2. The Big Larsbowski
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Take a hit. Free-hit will be valuable later with all the postponements.

    Hi Legends, need some advice here.
    Only 8 players this GW.
    1FT

    Guaita* (Foster*)
    White- Cancelo- James- Livra (TAA*)
    Bilva- Mount- ESR (salah* - Raph*)
    Laca (Antonio* - Dennis*)

    A) Salah+raph > Son+Bowen (-4 = 10 players)
    B) Salah+Raph+Guaita > Son+Bowen+Mendy (-8 = 11 players)
    C) just use FH

    1. KunDogan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      C

  9. World XI
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Deadline would have passed if there was a 12:45 game. We are still in the unknown

  10. antis0cial
    • 7 Years

    As things stand have 10 starters (although some at risk of being rotated). 2ft.

    Antonio and Salah to Ronaldo and a 7.9 mid. Bowen?

  12. _Gunner
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Which is better?

    A- Sa’ + Watkins + Salah + Saka > Sanchez + Ronaldo + Son + Martinelli -12

    Ramsdale
    Duffy-Cancelo-James-Livra
    D.Luiz-Bowen-Ødegaard-Foden
    CR-Lacazette

    No Bench

    Or play FHteam:

    SON-KDB-BRUNO-BOWEN-MARTINELLI
    CR

    Bench:3.9-Broja-Williams-4.5

    4. Amartey Partey

      Guesswork. Could be anyone from Palace.

    a) Brownhill + Dennis to Martinelli + Broja (-4) (11 players if Antonio fit)
    b) Brownhill to Martinelli (10 players)
    c) Free Hit

    DDG
    Livra | Dias | Cancelo | James
    Bernardo | Mount
    Antonio* | Watkins

    Bachmann | Dennis | Salah | TAA | Jota | Brownhill + 0.9m

  21. Hazz

    More people selling Salah ahead of Leicester.

    YES!

    1. TheSteel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Likely postponed

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        You've just made that up

      2. Ze_Austin
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Pray tell... Why?

        No major Covid outbreak at either camp

      3. Diamondgeezer
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        As a recent Salah seller this would make Tuesday a lot less stressful.

      4. Amartey Partey
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        I mean it is a possibility.

      5. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Damn, that would be annoying

    2. KunDogan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      This

    3. Londongeezaa
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Will many of those sales not have been registered via a FH?

      So he will be back for many teams.

    4. thegaffer82
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      If Ronaldo scores a couple this week (big IF), then it will have been all worth it no matter what transpires after that.

      But if he blanks... that will have been a major disaster of a transfer.

  22. Bill Haverchuck
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Are we expecting any reliable leaks on City team news before the deadline?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Never usually is

    2. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Absolutely not

  23. Ray85
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Best captain choice - Son, Cancelo, Ronaldo or Martinelli?

    1. Diamondgeezer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Not Martinelli, Norwich are decent lately and Arsenal not as good away from home.

  24. iL PiStOlErO
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    3.9 DDG
    TAA* Rudi Cancelo Tierney White
    Salah* Jota* Bilva Bowen D. Luiz

    2ft, 0 itb

    A) Jota to ESR/Martinelli
    B) Salah to Sonny
    C) Salah+Dennis to Sonny+Watkins
    D) other

  25. g40steve

    Realistically how many will play?

    Ramsdale
    James, Cancelo, Teirney, Rudiger
    *Bilva, *ESR, *Gallagher
    *Antonio, *Dennis, Watkins,

    DDG, *Jota, *Salah, *Trent,

      Realistically 7. ESR will play but probs off the bench

    2. Norco
      • 9 Years

      FH surely

    3. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
