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…

ok I’ve been given two choice for a 6.5m mf player Brozonvic & Draxler I already have Muller & Perisic who would you have ?????
Draxler
I’d rather double up with ze Germans rather than the Croats.
Draxler
Thanks DMC / Andy & Kop unanimous
I’m not liking this love for Ron he worries me that I haven’t got him but I thk I will have to ride it out.
Which moves would you prefer?
A: Junuzovic to Brovozic no hit and leave Lewy on the team
B: Junuzovic to Payet and Lewy to Morata/ Pelle for a hit.
Payet is a must have for me Matt, just looks so much better than everyone else at the minute so I’d pull the trigger on that hit.
I’d agree with Andy. I realise every team has only played once but from what I’ve seen Payet has been one of the standout players.
Yeah that’s the way I was leaning cheers lads. Who would you get for Lewy, Morata or Pelle? I can’t split them!!
Toss a coin between Morata and Pelle. Lewy has slightly harder looking fixtures.
That’s what I’m doing and it looks like Morata may edge it due to fixtures.
Matt – Do I dare suggest Mandzukic?
I considered him before MD1 but went with Perisic so I don’t think I should double up on Croats.
Payet or Giroud as cappo today?
I’m going Giroud, Cana’s out having had the red card so fingers crossed the guy up top will have a better day this time around.
+1
Girouuuuuud for me 😉
Payet, for me. Haven’t even considered anyone else.
Should I for a hit, replace Patricio with DDG?
No, never take a hit on a GK as it’s just not worth it.
No.
Thanks fellas, I was in 2 minds
Afternoon all
This is my updated team – looks like Pelle is fit and training and Morata is a question mark for me as he didn’t do much and got subbed.
Any thoughts on this team
Cheers all
I like it mate. It looks good
I’d bin Ronaldo and upgrade elsewhere. There’s no way he’s worth that fee in international fantasy games.
That’s one i’m not changing i’m afraid! He has a lot to prove!
You will regret it.
