      1 year, 6 months ago

      Good question, I have him as well. If not, perfect candidate to try that budget hack on

        Sosa to Cancelo? with nothing in the bank

        1. Freshy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          1 year, 6 months ago

          and Cancelo will blank and Sosa bag a 6

          1. Louis_Sans_Balls

            sounds about right 😉

      Hope so. He will have to start for my team.

    4. Naby K8a
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      the back up Barisic is rubbish so very likely he starts yes

    Ronaldo's contract terminated

      Good. Hopefully the new Chelsea owners are stupid enough to sign him.

      1. chocolove

        Nice to see, youre not a fan of him

  3. -GK22-

    Captain shift from messi?

    1. AYEW KI-EDEN MEE
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      yes neymar/kdb

      1. DavvaMC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        Do you think KDB outscores Messi?

        1. AYEW KI-EDEN MEE
          • 7 Years
          1 year, 6 months ago

          for sure, key passes bonus goal threat and assists likely

  4. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    If Mexico earns a pen Id have Ochoa take it

  5. fenixri
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    They've changed rules mid goal +7. What a joke of game

    1. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      what was it before?

      1. I Member
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        5

    2. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      Now same as defender goal. I'm half-sure defender goals were 9 points about a week ago.

    3. chocolove
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      Wtf

    4. chocolove
      • 13 Years

      Worst WC
      Worst WC fantasy

    5. Tomsk
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      Wondered how Saka got 15 points. That’s crazy they can just change something as fundamental as that.

    6. Gizzachance
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      Getting fed up with it already !

    7. DavvaMC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      When did this happen?

      Messi scored and till says 5 points?

  6. GreennRed
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    What we're odds on Saudi to win the group?

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      Decent chance tbh

  7. Hy liverpool
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    CR7 to chelsea eh?

    1. TheBiffas
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      Another ageing striker, just what they need

  8. chocolove
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Another 0-0. Shtfest

    1. Louis_Sans_Balls
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      this group's about to get a lot more complicated

  9. La Roja
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Saudi king declared a public holiday for tomorrow.

    I wonder what would happen if they actually win the WC

    1. Firminooooo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      For the whole world or just Saudi Arabia? He can pay for it.

      1. La Roja
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        He probably would tbh 🙂

  10. Louis_Sans_Balls
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    so do I have this correct mates?

    The budget hack makes more sense if you read it this way, assuming I'm understanding it correctly...

    Locked Premium -> unlocked cheap fodder then unlocked cheap fodder -> unlocked premium

    1. JBG
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      I tried that with Kane, it didn't let me. Said something about, locked player transfer will be effective MD2.

    2. Firminooooo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      Thats right. I did Kane to 4.5 and brought in KdB for Khazri.

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        yeah but the question is, will you still get Kane's points for this MD?

        1. Original Sin
          • 9 Years
          1 year, 6 months ago

          Yes it has been said clearly in the rules

        2. Firminooooo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 6 months ago

          Yes.

  11. Naby K8a
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Ronaldo joins the illustrious list of strikers to play at Major tournements without a club. For those who all remember Robson Kanu for Wales in 2016

  12. TheBiffas
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Ochoa hibernates for 4 years then comes into his prime form for mexico

    1. Louis_Sans_Balls
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      Mexico in general always seem to over perform at WCs, can't say the same for Poland and Lewa however

  13. No Kane No Gain
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Did De Paul make many tackles or Key passes today?! Would have to sub him off too early if he did alright in those terms

  14. JBG
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    A player you want to transfer is locked for this Matchday. Therefore, this transfer will only become active for Matchday 2.

    This shows up when I do Kane to someone.

    1. Firminooooo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      Who are you trying to buy?

    2. Louis_Sans_Balls
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      yeah that's fine, If I'm understanding this correctly you should still get his points if any for this matchday but more importantly you will get a chance for more pts from another premium player who has not yet played. That's what I'm understanding is the key to this hack. Of course you lose him for next MD is the only drawback I'm seeing so best to do this with someone you expect to replace anyway or if you WC. At least that's how I understand it.

    3. Firminooooo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      The player you bring in for Kane will be locked for this GW. You get Kanes points. But you use the money to upgrade someone else.

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        Yeah got it, think we're on the same page. Thanks mate!

    No WC fantasy interest this time - no competition entered. I've just come on here to say that match was one of the worst I have ever seen at a World Cup - the standard was appalling. Just on principle, neither of those teams should be allowed to get out of the group.

    In a more FPL oriented comment, what the hell happened to Matty Cash? He was dreadful too.

    1. The Mentaculus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      A smart decision. Fantasy game is an absolute s***show.

      Only watched the 1st half but I thought Mexico weren't too bad. Vega was a decent watch at least, Alvarez is real quality too. Would be a pretty good side if they had a striker of comparable quality to Brazil/Argentina/Uruguay

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      Ugly football from Poland. Had to check if Tony Pulis was manager.

      In fairness to Mexico they did try to play, they just needed goalscorer. Shame they axed Chicarito...

      1. Louis_Sans_Balls
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        They sorely missed Tecatico

  16. Haa-lala-land
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Ochoa is on my bench 🙁
    Can I sub him on and get his points now?

    1. jacob1989
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      No of course not

    2. Firminooooo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      Who is your other keeper?

      1. Firminooooo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        If your number 2 keeper is unlocked, not played yet, you can try to sell him for a nonstarting keeper. Get Ochoa as autosub.

        1. Haa-lala-land
          • 3 Years
          1 year, 6 months ago

          Great idea! Ive just done it and i think it's worked, thanks Firm

          1. Original Sin
            • 9 Years
            1 year, 6 months ago

            But as soon as you do at least 1 manual sub for any other player, auto sub would be turned off. Thats what i understood, but i might be wrong

            1. Haa-lala-land
              • 3 Years
              1 year, 6 months ago

              I'll come back to this thread after matchday one, to say if it worked.
              I had Ochoa on the bench and Costa (Portugal) in my XI. I've transferred out Costa and brought in Everton (Brazil, yet to play)
              Fingers crossed for me autosubs works 🙂

              1. Haa-lala-land
                • 3 Years
                1 year, 6 months ago

                Original you are right, my auto sub didn't kick in for my DNP goalie, due to making a manual sub.
                I'm all out for 51 Pts, with 2 DNP players in my X1 and 17 points on my bench!

    3. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      No !

  17. 03farmboy
    • 4 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Giourd or griezmann??

  18. The Mandalorian
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Amazing how many people are angry at Ronaldo for not wanting to sit on the United bench, say nothing and collect 500k a week.

    Instead he wants to follow his dreams and play regular football.

  19. Salarrivederci
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Did the premium locked + cheap unlocked -> cheap locked + premium unlocked actually work?

    If so you could just field the 11 most expensive/ best players for MD2 and still setup the team perfectly for MD3 with WC. Seems crazy.

  20. bso
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Does a Mid with a cleanie get 3 pts?

    1. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      2, it's +1 for appearance, +1 for CS

  21. Rinseboy
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    worth a budget hack transfer to do Sosa to Alba? or another 6m defender?

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

      I am thinking exactly this if it works - Alba with that fixture and assist record in last few games.

      1. Rinseboy
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        exactly. Shall we do it for the banter? game is a joke anyway

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

          I think I will and see what happens- what can possibly go wrong….lol!

      2. Rinseboy
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        who you gonna take out?

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

          Di Maria

          1. Rinseboy
            • 12 Years
            1 year, 6 months ago

            ah yeah of course didn't think I can take out any locked player. Who you gonna a get for Di Maria as I will copy!

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

              Don’t think it matters as wildcarding in MD2 but will get someone up to 6 m with a decent fixture in case I change my mind for any reason-

      3. bso
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        Do you have the extra cash?

        1. Rinseboy
          • 12 Years
          1 year, 6 months ago

          will use cash from Dumfries to a 3.5 def

          1. bso
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            1 year, 6 months ago

            Sounds good.

    2. Original Sin
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      If you are saving you WC for later, then i think locked 6m->3m/3.5m ( SEN or TUN) is the way to go and upgrade unlocked 3.5m->6m DEF.

      If WC is planned for MD2, then getting a 8.5/9.5 MID is preferable ( i.e. BRUNO, Musiala etc)

      1. Rinseboy
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        surley doesn't matter either way if hitting the WC in MD2 as will change all the defenders anyway?

        1. Original Sin
          • 9 Years
          1 year, 6 months ago

          I think MID ( likes of Bruno KDB) will have a higher point ceiling than the DEF, even if DEF are scoring more atm, just all are just getting CS points.

    3. Louis_Sans_Balls
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      What if Sosa gets the blank and Alba doesn't?

      1. Original Sin
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        Blank means CS?

        1. Louis_Sans_Balls
          • 5 Years
          1 year, 6 months ago

          Yes

    4. Mambino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      What is a budget hack/where can I find out?

      1. Firminooooo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        You have to pay FIFA 5£ to find out.

  22. Louis_Sans_Balls
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Looks like Giroud is getting the start

  23. Krafty Werks
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    2 FT's and ma wildcarding MD2 for sure, which of the following moves do you prefer? Thanks :

    A - Sane (confirmed out injured) & Neymar > KDB & Giroud.
    B - Sane & Sosa > Perisic & Pavard.
    C - Sane & Di Maria > KDB & 6.5m mid (won't play but keeps Neymar).

    1. I Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      C

    2. Original Sin
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      A and C is basically Neymar VS Giroud, since you are doing MD2 WC, as Di Maria->6.5 or 4.5 MID is irrelevant.
      I would definitely choose Neymar over Giroud, so C.

      Let me give you one more idea, just sub off Di Maria first and then choose someone else,who already played, to downgrade. Dont you have Dumfries or Messi? Downgrade them to get the 2.5m you need to get KDB.

  24. I Member
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Worth using the hack to do Musiala to KDB or just stick with Musiala? He's my only unlocked mid.

    1. Original Sin
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      Not worth. You should maybe upgrade a cheapie DEF with the hack? Someone from POR or SPAIN?

      1. I Member
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        My last defender is about to play - Pavard.

        1. Original Sin
          • 9 Years
          1 year, 6 months ago

          Ya then go for it, but wait till the team is announced if you can

  25. Louis_Sans_Balls
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Thinking of getting rid of Martinez (Arg) should I do it?

    1. Louis_Sans_Balls
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      Next fixture is Mexico

      Was fancying Morata instead

      1. I Member
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 6 months ago

        Morata against Germany? I'd rather Martinez against Mexico.

        1. Louis_Sans_Balls
          • 5 Years
          1 year, 6 months ago

          yeah but if the hack works then i get his pts against CR too

          1. Jambot
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            1 year, 6 months ago

            Only if you are bringing in Morata for someone other than Martinez with a 2nd transfer

            1. Louis_Sans_Balls
              • 5 Years
              1 year, 6 months ago

              Right!

  26. CoracAld2831
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Messi captain fail.

    Replacement?

    A: De Bruyne
    B: Neymar

    My instinct says Neymar.

    1. Louis_Sans_Balls
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      by the looks of this WC thus far 12 pts might not actually be that bad lol

    2. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      I'm probably sticking but A if any

      When is Messi getting his extra +1 for shots on target added?!

    3. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      B

    4. I Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      Not sure a goal is a fail. Should be on 7 points if they ever fix the scoring.

    5. Mambino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      agree

  27. SEXY SOLO SAUCE FOR THE LAS…
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 6 months ago

    Shouldn’t Bale be on 7 points as he was fouled for the penalty?

    1. Mambino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 6 months ago

      No cos he took it - you don;t get the assist as well in those circumstances

      Yeah, he should be as it's +2 for winning a pen in this format, regardless of whether the same player takes it.

      Almost all of the points are wrong though at the minute and they're changing the scoring system as they go it seems (mids are now +7 for goals instead of +5)

    France unbelievably spoilt for choice at CB. Konate + Upamecano starting with Varane, Kounde, Saliba and Fofana on the bench and Kimpemve who missed out through injury.
