Was kind of embarrassing to stream with a 10 man cash team =( Somehow didn't get punished though. I am running so hot at the moment.

You sure on fire and got to love the rub of the green that comes with it.

Please get cold before the fixtures galore in December.

European games are fun, so many teams and player to get familiar with.

Andrija Zivkovic who plays for Partizan Belgrade looks a future big star in the making.

I can't get excited about random Europa League games. It's difficult enough getting up for our own games being a Celtic fan ��

Hazard in Mondogoal has went from £13.5m at home to Villa to £15m away to West Ham. This after getting dropped and his minutes being more in doubt.

Is there any logic to this that I'm missing?

Probably the same logic that had Alex Pritchard as one of the most expensive players in the game for the past few weeks. I've given up even trying to understand their pricing.

Think the pricing might go off the form of the players last 10-20 games. That's why injured players and the likes of Pritchard and Traore are still expensive.

Players form and fitness level surely goes into their salary pricing. Also their pricing is biased to be a bit higher on the bigger teams. It differs from tournament to tournament as well. On Champions League some are hiked up, Zenit's Hulk at 17m as an example.

Now go to Fan Team official to see their player pricing, it is ridiculous. Traore and Pritchard on Mondo are an abberation, lots of value still with other players on Mondo.

I think the pricing system could incorporate and "League Difficulty" setting, so when they move from one country to another, it can be weighted better.

An example of this is the number of Ligue 1 "Superstars" that come to the Premier League and end up being a bit part player, despite good previous seasonal statistics or a talented loanee playing in League two for three seasons in a row, and doing well.

Luke Shaw is still 8.2m despite having a broken leg.

Hulk is this much because he's a score points machine. He's got 11 goals and 11 assists this season already.

Part of the reason people run trains on Mondo is simply because the site is terrible. It's a huge pain to create dozens of unique lineups and then an even bigger pain if there are lineup changes. fwiw people running trains of more than 2-4 teams are costing themselves significant EV

Also I've barely had any volume on Mondo despite winning the 10k just because I am primarily a DK player and I need most of the hour after lineups come out to fix my teams there. I just can't do significant volume on both while maintaining a high level of play. I've never played a single contest of cash on Mondo either, only GPPs.

Ya mg gonna be taking a back seat. besides getting stomped by donkey and kanu in consecutive weeks dk has more liquidity and my lineups on mg have been suffering. I may just not have adjusted well enough to the scoring change to fouls (and some run bad) but def not crushing as hard as I was last year in cash.

Like your avatar and it is cool. Shaw's price is more likely frozen for now and will drop when he recovers from the injury & ready to play.

In general, new players coming into teams tend to be under priced till they start hitting big fantasy points. Expect Virgil van Dijk and Martial prices to hike up soon.

Payet is a case in point and now up there in price. While big names like De Bruyne start with hefty price, Depay too but coming down now.

I agree with your observation Wazzu. It is a clunky and cumbersome website, even more horrible trying to edit team line-up's using mobile device.

Think DK has a head start on a slick platform which is user friendly. We look forward to play it when it comes to the UK. Mondo in my eyes have put the cart before the horse, trying to get major football club partnership for marketing purposes instead of producing firstly a well-designed platform.

Till team editing is much more smoother and efficient, also late swap is introduced. I just play only lower stakes and few teams for GPP. There are other DFS platforms around with better game play, as long as one accepts their lower prize pools.

KDB wasn't particularly pricy on DK when first starting, afaik.

Lost in translation here. We in the UK haven't got the chance to play on a DK platform despite a lot of tease in the past few months.

https://www.draftkings.co.uk/lp/dti-international/

The salary pricing we discussing is for Mondogoal. Depay was 14m at the start of the season and now down to the 10m. Payet was around 9m and now a hefty 14.6m Debruyne started around 13m and now sits top of the pile at 16m.

I had Payet in seasonal games from the start and a very happy camper now.

Who are the highest priced players on DK ? Guessing it will be different to Mondo as the scoring matrix counts crosses and the like.

11k is more or less the max you'll ever pay for a midfielder. Budget is 50k for 8 players.

DK game format is sure different to what we are used to here. They sent a survey questionnaire to UK players recently, sticking point being on picking 8 or 11 players. Think they will stick to 8 when they come here too.

For a few months it will make the UK sharks turn to cannon fodder fish till they get the used to the DK game format & scoring.

They sent it to US based customers too, in anticipation of launching in the UK. I prefer the 8 player format personally, but it's probably also just bias from an interface point of view.

One thing I've noticed is that you can generally have far more luxury players on the MG budget than is generally possible on the DK ditto. That favours DK in my mind, as well.

Depay is coming down because if you take his avg score for the last however many games, he is scoring far less for United than he was for PSV. De Bruyne came with a hefty price tag because he was scoring tons of points at Wolfsburg and his price hasn't dropped as he has continued his form for City.

Virgil van Dijk- Mondo don't spread a contest for Scottish football so all VVD points will be based on Euro football which (maybe wrongly) I assume Celtic didn't do very well in. His price will rise due to him scoring more points at Southampton.

Same with Martial. He wasn't playing much at Monaco. Now he plays every game and is scoring for United his price will increase as his avg score is increasing.

Payet's salary has been consistenly high as he was crushing at Marseille and has continued to do so at WH.
