Fast approaching 3 months on the index and have enjoyed every minute and learned A LOT about the market. Invested £500 spread out over the first 3-4 weeks. Made plenty of rookie mistakes which cost me about £20 in commission within the first week due to panic buying, panic instant selling and getting sucked into that deadly top 5 risers section...

I've learnt that patience is key now and am currently sitting on a 12% ROI which I think is decent for just under 3 months.

Portfolio is below. Trying to keep it quite diversified between MB and also long term holds for cap app. Looking forward to the new season to see how the market plays out as I joined the index with only about 4-5 GW's left of the season.

Not sure why I hold 1-2 share in some players which can be frustrating when they see a decent rise but hey I guess every penny tops up the profit 😂

@Tom77 Can easily see a 10p rise over the next couple weeks, maybe pushing 30p+ with a few goals based on the current volatility of the market.

£1.24 at the moment feel like hes a good shout for some IPDs and short term CA over the next 30 days. Regularly turns out for Leipzig. Denmark have Gibraltar and Georgia in the euro qualifiers so pretty confident theres a few goals/assists IPD to be had there too.

Another cheaper option for Denmark is Kasper Dolberg at 93p. Doesn't have his spot nailed down in the starting XI for Denmark but should still get some good minutes over the two games I'd imagine

15p down because hes off penalties as if they're the only thing that contributes to his price, the panic that sets in from some people is ridiculous

@Sill7 I can see him resting TAA tonight ahead of Sunday's game, be interesting to see the reaction should this happen. No doubt some plonkers will IS as a reaction

@LittleFish People are generally put off by his age, but given he'll be Portugal's main man at the Euro's I think he's a safe hold until at least May. During that time he'll return massive dividends as well. If Juve perform well in the UCL he'll creep up in price as we head into the knockout rounds too. I think he's a steal at his current price given his yield

The star player increase is huge on a gold day, 16p for top player on the day 😱😱😱

@MM potentially, I'd say it's more the fact that any dividend increase will benefit Messi as he is great for both PB and MB. So is bound to see a rise post announcement

Call me optimistic but I can see Sancho scoring 4, mopping up PB & MB and rocketing to about £8.50.

I'm sure you could call me many things for thinking and hoping for that but optimistic will do ;) …

In serious though think it's going to be a great tie!!

I've overlooked dividends since I've been on the index but my most recent purchases have been focused around dividend players just to maintain at least some sort of cash in flow per week. The main purchase being Pogba, I only hold 49 shares (apologies to the OCD among you) but he's provided me 2% ROI in just 13 days of holding. Although due to recent events I'm down 33p on each share I'm more than confident he'll reach £8 within the next 3 months whilst maintaining a good dividend yield in this time. I've got fairly sizeable holds in Ronaldo & Messi too who I'm confident will return a good amount of divs over the season especially during the UCL latter stages. I'm happy with the way my port is currently split with around a 30%:70% split focused on dividends and capital appreciation.

I think neither should be overlooked by the other in terms of a better way too earn cash, if they're providing profit then who cares?!

@Woody Tielemans is a good shout, maybe not a solid PB choice but can certainly see some more CapApp in him should Leicester make Europe next year and with the Euros coming up, also if the Man Utd transfer rumours crop up again. Dwight McNeil put in a solid score the weekend with no goals or assists, sitting at £1.73 at the minute. Another one who is almost guaranteed CapApp and if he moves to a better club should be posting higher base scores.

I think people are trading on the big rises the PB winners are seeing, similar to like they did with IPDs. Getting in around HT or earlier when they have posted a high first half score then hoping they go on and win PB, see another 30p rise and using this as a get out point. Very risky but seeing £1 rises after one game I also imagine very high reward!

@janner73 wouldn't count on it, Sheffield are a right hard team to break down, joint best defence in the league I think 😂

@NewUser377845 Into your balance :)

Hes at the current price neymar and pogba were hovering around during the recent stagnant times. With the doubled dividends surely this means his ceiling has got to be at least £10? I really want to get involved but am always nervous at prices around his value

@NewUser275766 just a bog standard game for trent, not done anything special and hes posting scores like that. Crazy stuff!

@Vespasian32 Every game bar the away game to Genk. I think it'll be a Gomez RB Milner LB type line up. I'd love a few underperforming games by his standard so I can hop on!

@Sill7 I can see him resting TAA tonight ahead of Sunday's game, be interesting to see the reaction should this happen. No doubt some plonkers will IS as a reaction

@ScouseSte £1.44 up the past 7 days. Scary stuff!!

If one of the big dogs wins with star man they are going to absolutely fly, hopefully Messi delivers!! I think:

Messi
Gundogan
Ramos
