Can one look at other managers' fantasy lineups through the site, once a round has started? I can't seem to figure out how to do this.

Is there a place to find out who's getting credited for assists

I had Jesus-Golovin/Mbappe-Coutinho but changed it to Neymar-Honda after I watched some 2017-18 Neymar highlights lol. Intended to revisit it today but didn't get a chance so I'm stuck with Honda now.

Lots of wingers/AMs seem to be classified as attackers which kinda stinks. There's a pretty big dropoff outside premium mids.

Trippier/Mendy/Kimmich was another one I wasn't sure about.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

night city you should've started Muslera and Said. If they suck you can just sub them out for Courtois and whoever at the end of the day..

After all matches on a single day have finished and before the next Round of matches start, you can:

Replace any player (unless they were sent off) with one from your bench whose team is yet to play.
Change your captain (if he was not sent off) with a player from your squad whose team is yet to play.
Players who are substituted out will score 0 points. The captain bonus will be lost from your original captain if a new captain is selected. Substitutions and captain changes can't be cancelled once confirmed.
An unlimited number of manager substitutions can be made, although it is not possible to make them after games on the last day of the Round as all fixtures will have been completed.
If a manager substitution or captain change is made, then no automatic substitutions will take place in your team for that Round.

Feel like I had the right idea choosing a Russian and the lineup was announced before the deadline I just messed up

Meunier, Uzoho, Belhanda and Inui were all on my shortlist. Wasn't really clear on Pavard vs Sidibe so didn't bother with him.

Had Kudryashov as an option too :roll: but my defence seems fine. Whatever meager saving I could have made wouldn't really have upgraded Honda much anyway.


I read some advanced stat shit saying that Muslera + Uzoho/Akinfeev or Willy are the best bets for pts per €. Uzoho seems kinda shaky though, and reading about Russia put me off picking any of them, lol...

i might ;)

Lucky, decided to risk Pavard for that low low price since he's almost definitely starting game 1 and if he does well he could keep his spot. having said that, watch Sidibe miraculously heal and start v Australia now

same with Uzoho, needed a 4.0 GK to make that team possible. do i have my doubts about spending 12m on Messi considering ARG don't score enough and FWs don't get as many pts as mids? sure. but it's Messi and it's worth a shot next to Neymar and Mbappe for now since the top mids are overpriced anyway (and some are listed as FWs)

Ah fair enough. Never thought about including Messi. I should've just downgraded Trippier to Pavard and then could've put in Milinkovic/Golovin for Honda. Oh well.

Oh yeah I guess you can sub them both on now and change captain to Salah (or one of them) before the game tomorrow. You can change captains day-to-day as well.

Couldn't tell by the way the rules were written, but maybe you know...

Are you allowed to sub a player out and then sub them back in during the same round? Or once they are subbed out are they frozen with 0 points?

Nah, once you sub them out they're out. So there's a stick or twist element with players, and especially your captains.

drafting 2 recently injured strikers out of 3 and having no backups was probably not my best decision
