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…

My WC team
Mito21 I like this WC team strong all over the only thing I I might do is change Stu or Bale as they both play on the same day if you want a fwd as a cap but looks good 😉
No point having the 2 GK’s on the same day either, I’d be tempted to just move 1 to a 4m keeper and change one of the Poles to the German Hector.
Thanks Andy, just changed my keeper and Kos to DDG and Hector.
On my wildcard. How does this look, please? Any suggestions?
Hey Manasi wouldnt have Pique & DDG swap DDG to Almer take a Rou def Alb won’t score & upgrd Dzem job done I like the Fwds 😉
Thanks a ton! On it
. I had Buffon before DDG but he’s injured
oops Albania have scored!!
I reckon I’m asking two stupid questions so apologies.
1) I saved my FT last GW. with a free WC after the 3rd group games, can 1 FT carry through a WC or is it the same as FPL that I would lose it?
2) Can we make transfers as well as team changes up until the start of tonights games, or is there a separate deadline for transfers?
1. My FT carried through my WC but I’m not sure if it’ll carry through now as after this round of games we are all given a free wild card, if you were to play it for the quarter finals though I’d imagine one FT would carry over to the semi final round.
2. We can only make transfers until tonight’s deadline, after that we can only use our manager substitutions.
Cheers Andy, appreciate it!
Peoples thoughts on Sturridge or Vardy starting for Ingerland? If Giroud doesn’t start, which I feel is likely, I feel one of the two would be good alternatives…
Yes Rambo looking at the same move if Giroud is not on team sht Sturridge going in just have to gamble
I think Vardy will start, after his performance against Wales.
Should help some of you

So it looks like giroud won’t be starting tonight, who should I bring in?
Got £9m to spend
Do you think it’s worth a hit ( I mean I know you’re partial to one .. From time to time!! I’m in the same situation as you, got Kane too who I’m worried about so a hit is in my mind!
I’m taking a hit Rosco – just need to work out on who to bring in 😉
Mitro, I think Lukaku? Especially with the fact you’ve no Belgian cover and he’ll be an option for captain if needs be on the last day of this GW.
