You have 3 free transfers to make today. You can have up to 6 players from one team.
Remember that we have till 8pm BST to make them, & we'll be able to see the lineups for:
PSG v Dortmund
As always, I won't make my transfers until the lineup for this game has been released.

As with the rest of the knockout stage, remember to NOT just think about this MD for your transfers, you need to think about which players are likely to be playing in the Final.
We get 5 FTs to make before the final. So as long as you still have 6 players, with those 5 FTs you can get to 11 players for the final.
Real are the favourites to qualify. Bayern are the most likely to get eliminated.
And PSG are favoured to get past Dortmund despite the Germans winning the 1st leg 1-0.

🎯 Fixtures & Teams to target
PSG, then Real, are obviously the teams to target:
-At home
-Favourites to qualify
I would avoid Dortmund….unless to want to go for a YOLO play or to have cover if Dortmund were to qualify...

🗒️ Transfer Strategy
As mentioned above, outside of a YOLO play, the ONLY reason to transfer IN Dortmund players would be to ensure you have 6 players in the final.
Why 6?
With 5FTs you get up to 11 players for the final.
If you were to have 3+ players from each of the 4 teams, regardless of who qualifies, you would have 6+ players for the final.
Or you could have:
5 Real
5 Bayern
4 PSG
1 Dortmund
And even if Dortmund qualifies, with 5 from Real/Bayern you get 6 players in the final.

🧤 GKs
Using 1 of your 3 FTs on a GK is a luxury move. The rest of your team must be great!
Gianluigi Donnarumma (6.0m) is the best GK of the round.

🛡️ DFs
Due to the strength of the matchup, PSG have the best defenders.
Hakimi (6.1m) is must own
Mendes (5.5m) then Marquinhos (5.5m) are the next 2 best DFs.
Dani Carvajal is back from suspension & is the best Real Mardid DF, followed by Rüdiger (5.4m) & Mendy (5.2m).
I don't like taking any of the Bayern defenders. Mazraoui is probably the best option, but Davies could well start instead. Dier seems to be the most nailed centre half as de Ligt is a doubt but preferred to Kim.
Hummels & Schlotterbeck are the best options from Dortmund.

🎯 MDs
The best Mid, by far is Jude. He is must-own. I'm sure everyone reading this own him!
Vitinha is the next best mid. If you need a mid & don't own him bring him in!
Fabian Ruiz is a better option than WZE.
Despite being the underdogs away to Real I like Musiala. He didn't play at the weekend but is likely to start tomorrow.

⚽️ FWDs
Does anyone NOT own Kylian Mbappé?!
The best forward & best captain today.
Tied for 2nd best is Vinicius Júnior (11.1m) & the best differential: Ousmane Dembélé (8.2m)
Rodrydo projects to score higher than Kane even considering his likely sub out for Brahim Díaz. And I'm not a big fan of Niclas Füllkrug (7.5m) in for this MD. There are better FWDs & better Dortmund players.

My Team now
I currently have 8 players. With 3 FTs that gets me up to 11.
I could play it safe & bring in Musiala, Dier & Schlotterbeck which would give me:
3 Real
3 Bayern
3 PSG
2 Dortmund
The worst case scenario is I would have 10 players for the final... but I would prefer to NOT bring in 3 players from German teams given the matchup of this MD.

My Team with the likely transfers
I'm not playing it safe.
🍆 I have big BALLS & I'm going for it!
All aboard the PSG Express! Players in:
▶️ Nuno Mendes (5.5m)
▶️ Marquinhos (5.5m)
▶️ Fabián Ruiz Peña (6.0m)
A PSG CS% would be MASSIVE for my team. Big risk will lead to a big gain...or a TOTAL disaster if Dortmund qualify!
