  1. Gents,

    I assume if you had giroud as cappo you will be changing?

  2. That was outrageous from Payet, be surprised to see him still playing for the Hammers next year!

    I had Giroud captain so can I now say captain Alli and still change it to Gomez and then Ronaldo on Tuesday if needs be or can we only change captain and subs once?

  3. Do France have another LB in the squad? Evra was a liability tonight.

    • Lucas Digne, young PSG LB. Might play against the Swiss if France have top spot to give Evra a night off.

  4. 22 off 3 with Giro as skip.Will spin Loris for Rui but stick with the rest with the other being Payet.

  5. Live points showing for anyone? Not showing on mobile. I’ve no internet again (!) so can’t get on desktop.

    • Seemed to have gone??

    • I’m on me rig and they’re coming and going. To be expected with the McD ran compo’s though.

    • When I log in it tells me how many points I have but when I click on view points nothing happens.

    • I’m getting nothing beyond my team. Anyone got any indication of subs / capo changes being open?

    • Got this annoying guy now!

      • Jesus imagine if FPL had him every weekend!!

      • Looks like we’ll be waiting a while yet!!

        • Updated now.

        • Ok cool. Got 22 then. But I knew that! Doesn’t indicate I can change capo yet? Does it on yours?

        • I can but I’m on my PC, you click on a player and brings up a list of options, substitute, make captain etc, not sure how that works on mobile though.

        • So right now my French players have their points gone and it says next game is against Albania but it still says I have 12 points, so if I take the captaincy off Giroud right now it will work? Or will it set it up for next match week(or round? However it’s phrased)

        • Above your team you should have three separate tabs, My team, My points and upcoming matches, if you change the C on My team then thats for Match day 2, if you change the C on my points then that’s for tomorrows games but you should lose half of them current C points.

        • Ah right okay Cheers Andy. I’ll be changing Giroud as Captain. Just contemplating swapping Kos out for Strinic haha smile

        • Wait, you’ll get a team sheet for the Croats game mate.

        • Yeah I just noticed that cheers Andy. smile

        • Andy you’re making me nervous now as My Points tab throws up no opportunity to change the capo on mobile.

        • Whereas My Team does!

        • Hmm, I might have got them the wrong way round then by the looks of that, I can’t guinea pig test it neither as I had Payet as my cappo. I double dare you to do it innit.

        • Actually better to leave it till tomorrow, I could have sworn that I had the option to change the C on the My points screen before.

        • Haha no chance! I’ll sit back and see the fallout in here tomorrow first. Once Silvers has logged in laugh

        • I’ve switched it lads so I can be the guinea pig today. It now says Giroud is on 5 points but still has me on 12 points total maybe that will be updated to 7 later on but for now it’s stayed the same.

        • I’m on the work laptop here and there’s no option for me to change the capo yet. It’s that same “no matches played” shit. At least that smiley little twerp is gone laugh

        • Brave man! From the My Team screen?

        • I did it from the my team screen and it worked it think.

        • Just logged onto the euro after changing my captain last night I should have gone from 12 to 7 but it still has me on 12 but Giroud is on 5 and Kos is on 2 with Dzemaili now captain. Maybe the points stay??

        • Ah right Cheers Cook smile thought I’d got lucky laugh

        • Switched to Hamsik, seems to have worked ok.

  6. Do people think FPL can change next season or in the future to make players like Kante ‘pick-able’. Incredible all season and the best player on the pitch again tonight but I doubt anyone here has him or had him all year during the Prem. Would be good to see but might be too hard to gauge and score correctly…

    • I think if they gave points for defensive play then maybe more defensive midfielders will get picked.

      • Yeah thats what I’m getting at Matt. With Leicester this year for example people had Vardy, Mahrez and a defender or Schmeichel. Would have made everything a lot more interesting if Kante / Drinkwater were able to effect points week in week out. Would less template teams and a lot more to think about but its probably not worth the work.

    • He’s why MLS do the bonus points like they do. Well not specifically him but that reason – to award all round play a bit more. He’d have picked up 3 or 4 bonus tonight just for passing and interceptions. The sooner we move to that system the better.

      • Previous McDonalds games used such a scoring system. Not sure why they stopped.

      • Here, here. Will benefit those who take it more serious even more, which means more prize money smile … one day!

      • Rambo this is what I was meaning to say in MLS you get points for defensive work so if the FPL can adopt that system it would make defensive players much more attractive. Only thing the would effect that would then be the price. I imagine if defensive mids got more points then they wouldn’t really be able to be priced at 5.5 or less so that would probably increase prices of attacking players too.

        • Just makes the game more interesting all round for me. More points = more excitement = more interest. Not sure if you caught the MLS podcast but that’s what I was getting at on there. Got the impression that they wanted the game to mirror ours whereas everyone I speak to over here who’s played both wants ours to follow theirs! I think they see the 3.7 million users and get seduced wrongly into thinking it’s because our game is better. It isn’t.

        • I wouldn’t mind the bonus points system changing in FPL to reflect that of the MLS – but having the standard roster with budget – and having a VC – need to be brought into the MLS side.

          My personal opinion is that bonus points can only be a benefit if they’re easy to understand – and neither format has done a good job of making that easy to understand yet. FPL, for example, has the BPS tally. But if you want to see how that tally was achieved you’d have to go back and do some math. FMLS, on the other hand, doesn’t go far enough into translating what the bonus points represent – and more importantly, the bonus points aren’t detailed at all once they become archived data.

          If they could just borrow from daily fantasy and list each point to each action…we’d really have something.

        • Yeah like if both FPL and FMLS could provide use with a list of what actions get what points such as blocked shots, interceptions, shot on target, successful cross etc it would make the BPS system much easier to understand. Maybe the people in charge of both sites could get together or atleast look at each others websites and combine the best aspects to make their relative sites better.

        • Knew we’d get Guy to participate on a none MLS article one day laugh

          Matt, that’s the odd thing – it’s the exact same people who run both!

        • So at least the Euros has been successful in some way laugh

          Ah you serious!! Then why make the games so drastically different? I’m guessing the people who run the sites are European, maybe they made the FMLS game have a higher way of scoring because the felt the MLS was a poorer quality.

        • Aye, aye! No need for the 2 footed challenge Matt! smile

        • Yeah I was mixing them up with the Slovaks tomorrow so I don’t need to swap Kos now.
