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…

FYI the captain change work around also helped another ML member who wanted to play his wildcard and it would not let him until he switched is captain also! Obviously a glitch in the matrix!
Morning guys,
A question for my southern brothers . . .
Will Kane be dropped for the next two matches based upon his Russian performance? I think surely not. But talksport were discussing it yesterday. I have today’s transfer riding on the outcome of your answers. He or Pelle basically?
Morning GP,
Obviously I’m not a southern brother
but fwiw I don’t see Hodgson dropping Kane.
GP, personally, I don’t think he’ll drop Kane, what he really needs to do is drop Sterling and stop Kane taking corners. I think we have to attack so i’d like to see Kane and Vardy up top with Rooney sitting in the hole.
My thinking as well boys.
So Kane v Wales and Slovakia or Pelle v Sweden and ROI?
On the basis of what I’ve seen GP I’d go Pelle. However if Italy beat Sweden will Conte rest players for the Irish game?
Pelle could be out
I was just about to comment Pelle on this but why is he out Silvers? I’m trying to decide between him or Morata. Steering clear of Kane and all things English I’m sad to say.
Matt sky sports had him out with a knock not trained with team but that could mean anything , but his he worth the risk
Ah right would you take the risk on him or just go with Morata?
Morning all
So the Wild Card is active, what do you guys make of this lot?
Cheers
I like it Hatter – Giaccherini is a very nice choice.
Renato Sanches looked great when he came on but is he likely to get much game time?
Ronaldo was awful last night but Ronaldo is Ronaldo!
I like this team Mad , Pelle could be injured maybe change him to Morata
Anyone else having trouble making a transfer?
When i transfer the player out the list of players won’t show up.
Just click on the player you transferred out again mate
cheers Mad, i got there in the end using my ipad
Gents,
What transfer should I make?
Mitro if KDB is out it will have to be him maybe Perisic Croatia or Silva Spain although you do have Fab
Anyone had a think about when the best time to WC is?
I haven’t really looked at how this game plays out for amounts of transfers but am I right in thinking you get several transfers to make in the later rounds?
