Welcome to another FIFA World Cup Fantasy Team Selection ahead of the Matchday 5 deadline, with the Clean Sheet Shield active 🛡️

In this video, I reveal my latest squad and transfer plans for the Round of 16, explaining the thinking behind every selection, including premium picks, budget enablers, differentials, scouting bonus targets and the captaincy options I’m considering for Matchday 5.

With four transfers at our disposal, I discuss how my strategy has evolved since Matchday 4, the key changes I’m making, and how I’m balancing fixture quality, player value and heavy versus balanced investment across the remaining nations.

🏆 Topics covered:
