Euro 2016 Fantasy Football Live Match Chat – The Group Stages
And we’re very nearly there. Just a bit of last minute tinkering before it all begins and another summer of wondering when England will be home will be over in about a week or so! We’ve opened the discussion a bit early so feel free to post up those last minute Rate My Teams and post any questions you have on any of the squads or potential team selections. We are blessed with a truly international community so we are sure you will get some answers to almost any concern you may have. Questions regarding what the Dutch are doing this summer are summarily banned though. Oh ok, who are we kidding. First to get Raz to come out from under his anti-Euro blanket wins a t-shirt!
As ever, just as with FPL – post your scores, your match comments, your highs, your lows or just whatever you’re about to have for dinner. Don’t forget that you can make team changes daily with captains altered as well as line-up swaps as no doubt the site screwing up your changes as per every year but either way get involved as usual. It’s sure to be a fun ride. And please, please, whatever you do – don’t let Init win it again…

So I went from 21 points to 9 points
How does the point system work here? Before England conceded the goal, I had 34 points. Now I have 27 points?
Also, between Howedes, Gotze and Muller who would be a better captain pick for today please? Suggestions? Yesterday I had Ali
Manasi, the points are pretty much the same as FPL except no bonus points. Checking live points appears to be an issue at the mo as there are mistakes being made – ie they were scoring Dier as a midfielder instead of a defender!
Who is your captain at the moment?
I have Dier. They should score him as a Defender! I need points. Rest all tanked
I have Ali as captain, currently.
Was thinking of Muller next. Advisable? Or Gotze?
Gotze or Mandzukic as cappo today? Currently on Giroud.
Morning Webs, that’s a close one i think but i would lean toward Mandzukic myself.
Web, have you got Ronaldo to come? If so I would punt on Goetze as any goal for him will be worth 5pts.
Clear as mud there gents, ha.
Yeah, got big Ron to come yet, think I’ll sit it on Goetze as, like you said, a goal is worth more to him.
Struggling massively with the Uefa site though, can’t log in and out of my two accounts on windows laptop or phone but got in on macbook.
Web, Macbook working for me too, though I tried the phone y’day morning and it worked ok.
Bearing in mind we have all morning to change stuff my recommendation is to do as much on PC as possible as it seems the more reliable – or at least has done for me.
Cheers for the tip, I guess it’ll pay to get sorted asap. I’ve got that 4m Croatian defender on bench in one of my teams, need to wait to see if he starts before swapping him in for Rami.
Luckily my team is set so I don’t need to touch my bench until tomorrow at work! Would love to say that I planned that!!
The only issue i have is with Patrice Evra!
Lads, my capo is Dier at the mo (8×2). Tempted to stick. Have Goetze, Moeller, Prisic, Howedes & Milik today.
Thoughts?
I think 15+ out of your cappo is a stick for me. Can’t imagine any teams going nuts today considering the fixtures let alone one player doing any more than a couple of goals.
Cheers Web
Morning Cookie. I’d probably switch that to Muller, he’s usually very reliable in international tourneys as we know.
I hear you NIN but he’ll have to do more than score one to make it pay.
That wouldn’t surprise me one bit to be fair. Goal + assist is far from unreasonable for Thomas and that beats Dier. A brace and you’re laughing.
NIN,
Are you being deliberately divisive this morning?? 😛
Damn, i’ve been rumbled :oogle:
Hahaha
Morning Cookie,
I’m currently on (6*2) from my capo and it won’t surprise you to hear that I’m considering sticking
I probably won’t though!
In your situation I’d stick.
Cheers Kop, that’s my gut. Going out for the day soon which is probably a good thing as it means no over-thinking
Stick
I think you stick on that mate.
Blue?! Stick?! I don’t know you anymore!!
Going to have another daredevil partner in crime, apparently you have went soft.
FPL Deadpool Euro Fantasy Team, isn’t going so well.. Thoughts?
Just have to do your best with subs and capo change, then wildcard it for next round.That’s what i would do anyway.
So, transfer someone out?
You can change your capo and subs you know?
Morning!!
Anyone going with muller as cappo?
If Payet didn’t score I would have definitely switched it to Muller
Yeah I’ve got Lew and Ronny still to go but I’ll be keeping it on Payet, they’d need to score a hat trick to outscore Payet now and even then the difference would only be 4 points so it seems a whole lot of risk for minimal gain, not saying I wouldn’t be happy with a hatty from one of them two though
Greizmann – flop
Me
Toss up between him and Lewan.
Lewan won
