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…

I think MD3 is a good time to use the WC. As we get unlimited transfers for Round of 16.
Hi All,
Personally I would like to thank Nin & Andy for giving me good advice to wilcarded my team out from MD1 misery. This proves that wildcard was my best option for MD2. But we’re now into MD3 now from this line up, with 2 FT plus $0 in the bank, who should I transfer out?
A closer look into my transfer conditions, with players price indicated. Really hopeful for your expert advice:-
I’d wait on line ups before making any moves, not sure if Giroud will start or not yet.
Something to take note guys, those who already used wildcard by MD2 will have 2 FT for MD3 due to the carry forward rules for group stage. Once knock out phase begins there will be no carry forward of FT. Cheers!!
Morning all – today’s 7s challenge
Good line up there Cookie.
You fancy Gignac to play over Giroud then Cookie, I’ve got to leave them transfers till I see that frenchie line up, It’d be a big help to me if Giroud started as Kane and Fellaini probably won’t start neither.
Have no real idea Andy, but it wouldn’t surprise menif he gave Gignac a game to see if he can perform better than Girooooo.
Anyone thk Sturridge will start ????
Yeah I fancy Sturridge to start against the Slovaks, he deserves after the Wales game.
Should definitely play Silvers.
Morning all,
Thanks to Matt???? who made me chose perisic as captain which was a saving grace after not chosing payet. But disappointing with my fwds who all scored 6 collectively. I have 2 FT, can you guys please suggest what changes are best here ? Am not sure my GK will earn me any points this MD is it worth to change him to portugal GK ? I can make up some money by replacing ramos to juanfran… Do u guys think Giroud will start? Please throw in suggestions..
Thanks
Does Giroud and Pogba to Milik and KdB work?
I will be short of 0.5mil Cookie.. How about nolito and kdb for giroud and pogba ? May be KDB and Stancu(taking a punt as i can captain him on GD1 and see how it goes if this doesn’t)
No problem St1cky I went with him too ! I’d go Giroud and Pogba out but I’m not sure how much you’d have to replace them so won’t suggest names yet.
If i take Giroud and pogba out I will be left with 17mil. Any suggestions ?
I like the Stancu and KdB duo could be a great pair this week.
