๐Ÿ‡ถ๐Ÿ‡ฆ FIFA WC Fantasy QF preview

On Friday, Croatia and Brazil kick-off the QF. As we're nearing the end of this World Cup, it's becoming increasingly hard to pick your team.

โœ๐Ÿผ So here are my opinions, country by country.
#FIFAWorldCup2022 #WorldCupFantasy
๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ท Brazil is looking fantastic at the moment and are firing on all cylinders. Croatia is tough to beat, donโ€™t concede much but I donโ€™t think theyโ€™ll be able to keep their net intact in this game. It would be unwise to not target Brazilโ€™s attacking assets,
...mainly Richarlison since he has the most value given his price tag. Neymar and Vinicius are sound picks as well with Neymar edging Vini since he's on penalty duty.

Here's some #WorldCupFantasy clarifications.

Starting with unlocked and locked players as that's important for the rest of the rules. Image
Captains - Essentially you can only make ONE change, once a player is locked.

You CAN change captains on the same day once the first game has finished.

For example I could go for Kane at 1pm Monday, then switch to Dumfries 4pm Monday.

But that would be my only switch for MD1. Image
Subs are similar - you can substitute a player on the same day within a matchday as long as they haven't played yet. Image

As you've probably noticed, the #WorldCupFantasy rules are not written great at all...

Some things are uncertain and we may be in for a couple of surprises ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜…

Issue Nr.01 - The Captain ยฉ๏ธ ๐Ÿ”ฝ
Usually (in #UCLFantasy) we are able to make a captain change each day.

The rules here suggest only 1 change may be possible. I'm not entirely sure this is the case though.

Could we be able to change the 2nd ยฉ๏ธ "once more" as well ๐Ÿค”
Issue Nr.02 - Substitutions

Able to sub "a player". Does this mean we can only sub 1 player? ๐Ÿค”

If so, a good bench would make less sense for sure.

Like in #UCLFantasy, I'm thinking we can sub in the whole bench though, or at least that's what I'm hoping for ๐Ÿ˜…

After going through all the #WorldCupFantasy teams, I'll now go through each position, starting with defenders ๐Ÿ›ก

๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Dumfries (6.0m)
1st up on my list, he'll certainly be in a lot of teams despite his premium price. Scored twice โšฝ๏ธ at the Euro and has the group to deliver again.
๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ Trippier (5.0m)
Looks like the favourite to start at RB for now, and offers attacking threat (also from set pieces) in an easy looking group.

๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ท Otamendi (5.0m)
Also a cheap starter with favourable fixtures & goal threat from set pieces/corners. Faces Saudi-A in the 1st game.
๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท Pavard (5.0m)
Looks like starting at RB and offers a cheap route into a great defence.

๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ Maehle (4.5m)
Probably one of the best defensive picks in the #WorldCupFantasy game. 7 goals โšฝ๏ธ 5 assists ๐Ÿ…ฐ๏ธ in his last 20 games for Denmark. Great CS chances too. #EUROFantasy hero!

And here's the final (team) one! In this thread I'll now have a look ๐Ÿ”Ž at the #WorldCupFantasy options from... England ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ

England came close to ๐Ÿ† glory in 2018 & at last summers Euro, and definitely have the group to be a great source of fantasy points.

#FPLCommunity Image
In goal, Pickford (5.5m) is very likely to start once again. Pope (4.0m) looks 2nd in line, his price would have made him incredible value ๐Ÿฅฒ

At LB/LWB Shaw (5.0m) should start with Trippier (5.0m) being the favoured option on the right side.
Trippier is having an excellent...
... (#FPL) season, making him a tempting option! ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Depending on formations either two or three centre back's will be deployed, who could all offer some threat from set pieces.

In central mid, Bellingham (7.5m) & Rice (6.5m) are the favourites to start, but may not offer much..

Let's now have a look ๐Ÿ”Ž at the #WorldCupFantasy options from... Mexico! ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ

Mexico, who beat Germany at the last World Cup, will face Poland in their opening game. A game that is hugely important for their chances in Group C.

#FPLCommunity Image
In goal, once again, Ochoa (5.0m) will be the prefered starter. He has shown quite some heroics at past tournaments, but it's probably better to look elsewhere.

At full back, Gallardo (4.5m) and K.Alvarez (no price yet) seem to be the starters, but they're looking like risky...
... picks with Arteaga (no price...) & J.Sanchez (4.0m) also being around.

Moreno (no price either ๐Ÿ˜…) should be the most secure starter at CB.

Personally I would probably avoid their defence all together considering possible rotation and games v Poland & Argentina.

โœจ TOP PICK - MEMPHIS DEPAY (8.5M) โœจ

Since 2021 began, Depay ranks 1st for goals (21) & assists (11) among Dutch internationals, also topping shots (58), SOT (30) & big chances missed (7) in qualifying. And he has pens. & set-pieces!
