A strong finish from my defence last night made the difference, but it's very tight at the top.
I've only made 2 transfers, hopefully the other 2 carry over to the next round (I might need them if France or Argentina lose).
12th man for me this week.

64 was third with 117

I'm sure 64 can post the table this week, not sure how to do that


Last 16 starts today so you have until 6pm tonight UK time to get your teams sorted. You get 4 free transfers. I'm sure you all understand the boosters now so you can all go your own way.
I intended to post up the table, have been a bit busy this morning.

Cat has sorted it.

How does the 12th man work?

What day to select?

Do you choose a big named player not in your squad?

Does their inclusion affect your other scorers?

12 man is a 12th scoring player, doesn't affect your scoring for other players but you can' tcaptain him.

Click on the 12th man and then pick from the list (no salary limit) for me some players were locked but I got Messi ok, once picked click submit.

So you didn't have Messi in your original team?

The big player missing for me is Haaland, but surely Erling is a poor option against Brazil/

Me? No, never have.... Brazil's weakness is defence plus Erling was born in Leeds. I've gone Lamine for the first time too, he's due..


My team last week. I've dropped the two Germans and Summerville..

I'm really enjoying this competition, it's way more interesting than FPL.

Shame it's such a short event.
