You won’t have to pay a penny to enter FanTeam‘s latest Freeroll event, which gives Fantasy managers the chance to compete for a £1,000 prize pool on Boxing Day.

To the layman, this is a Fantasy tournament that effectively gives entrants the chance to build a six-a-side ‘Free Hit’ squad for the first five matches of Gameweek 19:

There is a jackpot of £420 up for grabs and prizes awarded down to 12th place.

The deadline is at 15:00 GMT on Sunday.

Head to the FanTeam lobby and look for the ‘FANTEAM’S FESTIVE BOXING DAY FREEROLL – [BIG THANKS TO ALL OUR PLAYERS]’ link (seen below) to enter:

SCOUT PICKS FOR GAMEWEEK 19

£1,000 on offer in FanTeam's free-to-play Boxing Day Fantasy event 4

HOW TO PLAY: A BRIEF GUIDE

Different from the usual squad-based games, FanTeam managers are given a budget of €90m to build a team of six players from any position. A maximum of three players per club is permitted.

These half-dozen assets then score points as they would in FPL (more below) based on their on-field achievements.

Here are some notable things to consider in the otherwise easy-to-play game:

  • There is no bench or manual substitutes; instead, there is a ‘Safety Net’ feature. If a player in your Fantasy team isn’t in the starting XI for their side, they will automatically be substituted for the next priced player from the same position and club.
  • A ‘Stacking Penalty’ is given if you have two or more defensive players from the same club and they keep a clean sheet. One point is deducted for each additional asset that you select from the same side.
  • Captains and vice-captains score 1.5 and 1.2 times the points respectively – but also cost 50% and 20% more!

HOW DOES THE SCORING WORK?

FPL managers looking for a way to make their knowledge pay will have no trouble picking up FanTeam‘s Gameweek 19 Freeroll, with its familiar scoring system.

Think of it as FPL without the bonus points, with a few other exceptions such as shots on target, winning/losing impact points and ‘stacking penalties’ – detailed in the graphic above.

    Where’s all these random goals for Mount come from recently?
    Is he playing in a different position?

          Yes absolutely - our central mods are now 2 of Jorginho, Kovacic, Kante, Loftus-Cheek, Saul, Barkley. Mount has found his calling further forward.

    Struggling here. I feel FH can be more valuable in 22 and beyond and i'm not setup that well for the doubles right now...
    What to do here with 2FT but no cash?
    Initial thought was Salah to Son and maybe ESR to Bowen with the hope that WAT game in 20 goes ahead (Dennis)
    Guess it's Son vs CPL sou wat compared to Salah lei che
    Unsure if it's possible to get to Son + Ronaldo
    Would love some advice.....

    B safer?

    1. Tinfoil Deathstar
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Not sure either option is safer than the other tbh. Hopefully we’ll get some sort of team news before deadline

  7. Iceball

    Gundo to Son for a hit or postpone one week?

      No

  9. Jarnathan
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    How are all these Son captainers going to get Salah back for Leicester?

    1. evilfish
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Personally, I'm going to do Son > Salah.

    2. Christina.
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      capt Taa who has outscored Mo in the last 4 weeks 36-24

    3. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      We're not. At least I don't plan to.

    4. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      that's the gamble but banking on it paying off over the next 4/5 weeks

    5. kringe
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Bernardo to Salah

    6. Zimo
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Son against Southamton. Why would they remove? Captain Trent bro.

      1. evilfish
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Maybe you're right, seems a waste of a transfer to get Salah back in again just for Leic and Chelsea before I need to get rid again.

    7. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      They’re not basically

  10. Giovanni Giorgio

    Trossard or Bowen for this GW?

  17. PascalCygan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    I’m so undecided about what to do.

    Was going to do Salah to Son and maybe a -4 to upgrade Street but I have no idea if I should do that or FH

    Something tells me I should take a hit and save the FH for another day but then I wonder if I’ll get left behind…

    Any thoughts?

    1FT 3.1ITB
    DDG
    Cancelo James Rudiger Livramento
    Bernardo Gundogan ESR

      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      similar mate see post above
      with so much uncertainty around lineups let alone games being on I think it's more valuable to use FH22
      have to expect a red arrow this week it's just whether you can make some of that back next week sans Salah - this is my dilemma

      1. PascalCygan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Thanks mate, so tough isn’t it? At least you’ve got 2FT. Salah to Son makes sense, then I’m not so sure!

        1. FPL_Crisis
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          I could roll the other. tempted by ESR to Bowen - WOL MCI vs wat cpl

  18. Danstoke82
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Can’t keep up with these pages so taken the plunge. Probably will regret but keeping hold of my 2 FHs for now.

    Salah + Mount + Benteke > Ronaldo, Son, Bowen -8

    Have fun all!

    1. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Good luck! Could work well

      1. Danstoke82
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Thanks mate.

        Reluctant to lose Mo and not a fan of -8 but planning longer term so just got to suck up the big hit and hold those 2 FHs for now

  19. Dannyb
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    A King & Salah to Ronaldo & Martinelli - 4?
    B King, Salah and Sterling to Ronaldo, Son and Martinelli - 8
    B seems silly now I've written it down, probably just getting caught up in the Son hype.

    1. Danstoke82
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      You’ll probably want Son long term with DGWs coming up and against a depleted palace side today

    On a scale of 1-10 how screwed am I with no Spurs or United players?

    1. I Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Not having any Spurs or United players is a big part of why I'm FHing.

  21. Eh, just one more thing ...
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Bowen or Son for captain?

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Son

    2. _Ninja_
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Son

  22. storr84
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    FH or hits?

    I only have 8 starters.

    1. _Ninja_
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      -4 to get 10 should be fine.

      1. storr84
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        That's what I'm thinking. Ty.

    Ramsdale
    Rudi cancelo (c) James cash
    Galla(vc) esr Bernardo
    Watkins toney

    Sanchez jota taa salah

    Was tempted to just do Dennis to broja to free up cash

    A. Hold salah for lie and che
    B. Salah out for son?
    C. Bring in broja for Dennis (to have 11 starting)

    Much appreciated for any opinions to take on
