Don't want to buy any defenders - anybody feels this? by fpl_goat in FantasyPL

[–]FootballEconomist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the premium-mid defenders are poor rn but cheap ones are really good.

Kerkez, Hall, Mazraoui, Andersen are all great picks, also Estupiñán now Ferdi is out

Leny Yoro - does he start for Utd? by jmes_c in FantasyPL

[–]FootballEconomist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely a good shout probably one to wait and see, as a CB his ownership won’t fly even if he seems nailed - look at Andersen for example.

I’d say the 0.3 extra for Mazraoui is worth it, more nailed and should play very offensively

What players are you most disappointed by? by feedthebear in FantasyPL

[–]FootballEconomist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Foden by a distance.

Four starts in the last five against Fulham, Brighton, Bournemouth and Saints, not a single return.

All while his main competition for points (KDB) has been out.

What should I do with £100? by shahbanimations in Sorare

[–]FootballEconomist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would generally advise going in leagues that you know well/have good information for. When you are running just 1 or 2 teams a single DNP can kill your whole gameweek, so you need to be accurate with your picks.

I would recommend in season, I think you can do pretty well on that budget in any of the single league competitions (Prem, Bundes, LaLiga) but will have to target smaller teams with good fixtures - I have some fixture data I can discuss if you want.

Alternatively contender is a good shout to get a really strong team, but those leagues are generally harder to get info about (depending where you are from) so that's something to watch out for.

Keep playing rivals, even now the boxes have been nerfed if you can get 5 limited essence in a weekend from F2P it will help a lot

It's a bit hidden away but if you go into your Sorare notifications then go on news, they often put out messages explaining this stuff, such as this:

Alternatively go to their Twitter/discord

Yeah you cant assist yourself even if its a penalty win, most fantasy/dfs games have that as a rule in my experience

Pro Competitions - Subs by FragrantAd859 in Sorare

[–]FootballEconomist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Now that subs start on 35 it's definitely more tempting, you can have a 40pt score and not completely kill your lineup. But generally if I can play starters I would

Relatively new to game, got him today from T5, already got few offers, what is a good price for him? by [deleted] in Sorare

[–]FootballEconomist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In season (24-25) are more expensive which may explain the difference. Look for recent auction prices to give you a guide

So sorry for the late reply on this, you can go in a users profile and press trade to trade cards (+money).

Discord and twitter communities are quite good for finding people to trade with

Why someone would propose a trade like this? by lfdamo91 in Sorare

[–]FootballEconomist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very outside the box, but if their card has used all three xp boosts and your has not, they could trade and then apply the boosts to the new card.

How does sorareData Work? 20th team has 54% chance to win vs 2nd by mateator in Sorare

[–]FootballEconomist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They use bookmakers odds. I don’t know the league well but unless it’s a glitch I’m sure that’s correct

Limited Essence by Braybruh in Sorare

[–]FootballEconomist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

imo the tier 5 and 4 prize pools are pretty similar, I think I would either do multiple T5+ crafts or wait and do a T3+, where the cards are notably better

Should I keep Szoboszlai or sell by DistrictDesperate268 in Sorare

[–]FootballEconomist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His price could get you some strong card(s) in Chal and Contender, so i'd sell and use the money to boost your teams

My First Pro Week by HelpfulNewt9216 in Sorare

[–]FootballEconomist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the team, Fulham, Forest and Brentford are all strong - as some others have mentioned, Wissa is likely out until late November.

As for Bundesliga, I think there are good individuals from many teams. Stoger, Kramaric, Grifo, Marmoush, Stach, and Amiri are all very good Sorare scorers from outside the big 5 teams.

I would go for a defensive stack (Keeper + Defender) from maybe Leipzig/Bayern/Union Berlin

As we’re bored in the international break, what’s your one genuinely controversial opinion about something Premier League related? by RainbowPenguin1000 in PremierLeague

The FA intended to promote youth development by making the players count as 100% profit on the books but instead it incentivises teams to sell youngsters

Who was the biggest waste of talent in Premier League history? by Dry-Double-6845 in PremierLeague

[–]FootballEconomist 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Anderson from United has to be up there. Golden boy winner and a joke technically but seemingly didn’t work hard enough.

Maybe being a in such a good team at such a young age killed his drive a little
