@Coriolanus
Why don’t you post your port up and I’ll try and help you get rid of your remaining assets and give you a lifeboat to help you get off this sinking ship.
I’m sure others might also do you a favour and help out if it means you head off into the sunset.
Only thing I’d ask in return is you stay away cause I can’t take much more of your negativity ,poorly connected arguments and in general the complete bullshit points you reiterate over and over again.
Let me know how much Bruno you want to sell thanks.

The gang of 3 above are here to save us all.
I have never seen a more diverse motley crew of heroes.
Mr White ... I have no words other then put up your port and I will buy the lot tomorrow including Mikel 🥳.
You run the risk of a breakdown and I hope to Christ maths ain’t your subject cause u ain’t got a scoooby.
You don’t invest in betfair !ur less liquid models are only profitable for arbitrage early trading exploitation’s and more liquid equals growth ...plus your basis football knowledge is deplorable as are your trading techniques.
Tom is the pro gambler that struggles to make a decent return. Maybe you tubing will work out as an alternative career cause making a few dimes a week ain’t a successful gambler.
Vesp is just an example of a greedy myopic arrogant twat. You preach down to others ... have this notion of being an it trading superstar and have so immersed yourself in another platform that renders everything you say pointless now with your conflicted brooding resentment of the Necessary changes implemented for sustainable growth drivers.
Ok said my peace I’m off to buy a million Mac Tominays

Can’t wait for more clarity.
Will debunk some of the utter rubbish being spouted on this thread. I’ll give some the benifit of the doubt as being simply naive but others are talking as if FI are intentionally ending the future opportunity that exists in this platform to trade profitable.That is illogical.
Order books are a massive positive , have far more upside then risk, will add credibility to the platform, will ultimately remove the unsustainable requirement of FI to transact at their current levels ,by increased trader to trader exchanges thus massively reducing the current dependency on the Instant sell function.
Liquidity will be increased across the board in general. New money will move into the market with the added transparency of a proper functioning order book system.Tranaction levels will increase exponentially with FI profit taking on the increased volume of trading, increasing their commission take allowing the overall market to grow further and ultimately create an opportunity for people to make football knowledge convert to profit for a long while to come.
Granted they will be a short period of uncertainty that comes with every change to a business model but the change will be a massive positive for those that embrace it and see the logic and the reasoning behind it.

Allow points to count on media for reference to a players name and not the need for full name. Bollox.
Also get rid of the word united having bonus points ... such an outdated pointless outlier that needs fixing

@Sol
Rooney Ronaldo and neymer better then Mbappé at same age. Are you having a laugh. The fella has 51 league goals in last 2 season for PSG in 49 games.
He is after pele youngest player to score in a World Cup final and was the outstanding forward of the tournament at the age of 18 winning all sorts of accolades in the process.
He has already finished league top scorer twice and player of the year.
One can argue the toss at pb potential , expect his returns to improve when he plays on a team without selfish neymer taking all the touches, , in my view he flourishes with mb change as he is the most valuable player in world football today and his mb will improve with an upgrade to the current bs system but to make a real life comparison to Rooney in particular is comical , the guy is an absolute monster of a player and could not be more impressive with what he has done in his career to date. Bloody hell some idiot will be comparing him to lightweight Rashford next!
Mbappé the World Cup winner versus neymer at last World Cup highlighted the difference , one is a team playing baller, the other a selfish egotist who spent the whole tournie on his ass crying annoying his teammates!

Well written piece...Interesting back story well laid out.
Even though I felt like I was rereading war and piece at times😉
I agree forum defo needs more Fi Direct involvement and contribution. Also communications can be improved.
However ultimately I would have to call out the fs references and comparisons of late by some contributors as being unhelpful disingenuous and inflammatory.
These are unchartered waters for all businesses .
People need patience and understanding.
Ask yourself the question have fi taken steps to protect the platform, I believe they have, the phased changes to me have to be done and with that will come anomalies that need addressing.
Some here are not giving that process enough time.
At least wait to see the outcome of tuesdays q&a session for further clarity.
These views are coming from someone who has experienced all the up and downs of investing in all sorts.
The most money I ever lost was on blue chip banking stocks which were considered safe at the time.
All my seed investment money was derived from gambling platforms where unfortunately I was shut down accessing as a result of being successful.
I have seen even this year betting accounts which I use go bust and me lose out ....mo play was the company.
All platforms have an element of risk is my point and I believe this one is relatively secure and still a fundamentally sound platform where there is massive potential upside returns.
The introduction of me functions is a necessary growth tool and some balony about 38% percent of leftover useless assets from outdated World Cup squads is errant nonsense.
I’m going much heavier now once full ME is implemented and those early movers who deservingly made great Roi from sticking with platform should chill out , look at the returns they have earned fairly, bravely and deservedly from being early adopters and look at the potential to make more returns well into the future.
Defo agree some of the forum members you mentioned would be great assets as moderators and help with future communications.

As I’m relatively new here ill state my plan.
Deposited a monkey 12 months ago ... and forgot about it. Not unusual I have always tried different gambling strategies and relatively successful and move on to next option as bookies got wise etc.
Checked up on it maybe 6 months later and started to research. 5 test players had gone up 35 percent so was interested .
Have spent last 6 months researching reading and trying to test different strategy with regular deposits to gain confidence in system.
Reckon I’m there now have, 15k deposits and port is up over 18k ...
Phase 2 for me is now after order books are in play deposit 100k and use what I now know to target 50 percent net return for 3 years annualized .
I would then take out the 100k . Leaving me ideally with over 220k profit to decide what stage 3 will be.
I have the funding from other successful trading gambling stuff and have a fairly decent business so my greatest edge is I don’t get scared , have played and coached soccer all my life gambled in all forms in profit for over 25 years and love the combination that this platform provides.
Ps the forum has been an excellent source of info as I refuse to use social media for business reasons

@Number5
Depends on player ... while the ipd bonus is on It makes sense to flip keepers and strikers for example if they have fixtures a plenty in 30 days and u can get out at a decent spread . Each player needs to be looked at individually it’s not A simple one strategy fits all is my view

@Number5
I see the strategy working that all these holds as long as they remain no 1 will stay in Port for min 24 months.
I will file and forget and expect them to return over a 3year window anything from 35 to 75 percent in div yields. Also expect them to return min 50 percent in cap app. When I’m set with full quantity’s ... nearly there I will switch back to me bargains on the rest of the platform for pb outfield players primarily in the 20 to 25 range in addition to topping up my main holds with while the spreads allow.
Im very optimistic for all the value players goalkeepers included on the platform over next 3 years.
Only decision I have to make is how heavy I deposit and how soon I do it....

@Chap
Chaps it’s simple maths probability .
Silver day for argument you could have 6 to 8 keepers competing for divs from a base price on average of 25 percent of defenders cost.
Those more expensive defenders will be competing with say min 40 other defenders .
The value in the keepers is that they face numbers wise min a fifth of the competition that defenders will for pb honours and on bronze it could be simply which team wins for keeper divs.

Must say index trak very useful loads of great data for understanding your port ... and to see how you perform vs market is very handy.
I think the ipd expiry also a must have with opportunity’s to flip keepers and low priced defenders for reloaded ipds

@NewUser332703
Yep so far so good all under par but it’s only 1 round.

@Number5
For example I would not flip kimmich but I would neur

@NewUser332703
Yep lots of great value a fifth ten places ... went for Danny Berger , Tommy Fleetwood , Xander Schauffele and dustin Johnson all each way with brooks on the nose!

I find sancho’s price extremely risky and comparatively terrible value and wouldn’t go near him .
His long term pb yield is unknown and his mb potential drops off a cliff if he finally signs for United.
He is priced like he is the next messi Ronaldo and to me he ain’t shown nothing near that level of potential yet.
Way I look at him is what comparatively you could get elsewhere at the price.
I was able to get a combination of Haaland , Pulisic , kubo and de licht plus a couple of keepers for 15 quid. All young potential long term guys with massive potential.
I would bet my life savings that that crew will return far more yield and combined cap app then sancho over the next 3 years. I reckon Pulisic alone could easily end up the better player and the bigger world star in next couple of years. The fig panda and don etc are forever making out that sancho is the holy grail of assets holds and are in effect pumping him to the uninitiated Brainwashing the sheep to follow, I don’t see it and think the mb spike , once transfer is complete ,will see a realisation of the unsustainable value gap he is currently at to others on the index with a market correction following. He is a good player but maradona he ain’t!

@MickTurbo

Grated hrsecky a decent keeper and I hold him aswell but by all accounts they bid 18 million yesterday for onana. No way onana moves without being guaranteed first choice and to be fair onana would be better keeper.
For me it’s better if he doesn’t land though in leverkusen with Chelsea being ideal.... bound to be some mb too if that happens which would be a bonus.

Andre onana Ajax.
Value price 24 one of the best keepers in world. Great with his feet and has some of Europe’s top clubs bidding for him ..... leverkusen and Chelsea are heavily linked .
Guaranteed to move from Ajax and a certain no 1 wherever he lands. What’s not to like. Very little downside and huge upside with him.
