Bundesliga Fantasy Football 2023/24
With the Bundesliga also nearing a start we figured we give it a home again that way you Bundesliga managers have a home to discuss bad transfers and terrible captaincy choices.

Bundesliga Fantasy rules changes season- 2024/25
Unlike previous seasons, now you can select only 3 players from each team. That shouldn’t be a great shock as we are well used in the FPL.
New points system goes huge:
80 points for a goal from a forward, 100 for a midfielder and 120 for a defender. Wait, a massive 200 points if somehow your goalkeeper scores. Assists are rewarded from 40 to 150 points, depending on position. Penalty saves get 120, bonuses of 20 for a brace and 60 for a hatrick are added too.
For a first time, dribble earns you 5 points, challenge won, either on the air or the ground, gets 5 points as well. Every successful cross brings 7 points and 1 for every successful pass.
On the flipside:
Deduction of 20 points for a yellow card, get a second one and it’s another – 60. Miss a spot kick is -60, scoring an own goal -80, every foul prompts 5 and a massive -100 for a strait red card.

After today the next wildcard will be GW12 so we need to plan for 4 weeks (8-11)
Do we think Haaland is a yea or nae this gw v Mainz ? Don’t know wether to keep or get rid.
What do we know about Florian Schock? Stuttgart 1m first choice goalkeeper ?
Ok FBL wildcard time
Attack
Defence
Bench
All looking good Otiendo. I presume you think Haaland is out ?
Yes but also, I thought that Weghorst and Embolo had better fixtures over the next 4GW
Remembered about FBL just half an hour before the deadline.
Managed only a few changes.
97 points with Lewa and Kimmich to play.
It will be hard to decide who to remove for the latter….
That’s a nice result. I would leave Kimmich on the bench. Are you going to take the star from Embolo to Lewy ? I’ve got that choice also.
Don’t know tbh. Leverkusen are in a top form and we could see either 0-0 or 4-4. Will decide tomorrow.
The so called Bundesliga top match proving to be a farce. This an embarrassing result not just for leverkusen but for the entire Bundesliga. The so called title contender being taught how to play football by the now 10time defending champion.
Another easy bayern title.
Yes Reg, I took a huge gamble to bring in Lewa and Kimmich and change the armband from Embolo.
It was worth it
