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…

Viva Ronaldo!
I have Dzsudszak in my midfield!!
Inspired!
Not sure if anyone here encountered similar experience.
I changed my captaincy from Lewondoski to Ronaldo before deadline today (been sticking to these 2 big names even though they flopped big time for 2 matches). My loyalty to Ronaldo finally pays off and this is what I get (refer to the image attached).
When I checked my team again during the match, the captain armband went to Giroud instead. France match was over so I don’t think I could change the captaincy to Giroud even if I horrendously misclicked or something. I’m in a mini league with friends and money is at stake. Money aside, but the fun is definitely taken away had this lineup and captaincy stay this way
Shawn, sounds a bit strange that it would allow you to re capo Giroud. It’s worth sending them an email my friend – no guarantees they will do anything but give it a go.
Sounds like a glitch. Given his game had been played it should have blocked you from capping him anyway even if you did press it by accident.
How lucky are Portugal that Iceland got that last minute goal, I was really looking forward to sticking it to them in the round of 16 until that happened, guess we’re just going to have to settle for beating Eidur Gudjohnsson.
I was thinking the opposite. I reckon they’d have beaten us. We should see to Iceland though.
Still not a believer then innit, we’ll have to get you converted before the quarter finals, least Ronny finally came through, good score from him today, was well worth the wait actually.
Perpetual disappointment over 30 odd years of watching them fail at tournaments wears you down Andy.
But yeah good stuff from Ronnie. Finally a capo with more than just a clean sheet to his name!
I told y’all Cristiano would come good. English fans beware of Iceland, they are full of confidence, I can see them knocking England out
I hope they do, otherwise it’s a GW1 defender capo for me in next seasons FPL
Well well NIN does that mean England have a chance it’s still a tough game but you never know 😉
Haha, i should have insisted on the QF’s, silvers!
Not quite there yet NIN did Alaba save us today 😉
Lol I may do the same as my captain picks was really rubbish
So Sommer comes off my bench with Buffon not playing? I had a look at the rules and it said it auto subs if your starting GK doesn’t play
That’s only if you haven’t done any manual subs. There’s no exception (or acception as Silvers would put it
) just for keepers.
what’s the difference between manual subs and auto subs? this game not the same as FPL regarding auto subs?
No mate it’s different. It’s like CL or MLS. Basically have a choice and do one or the other. If you manual sub anyone at all then you are effectively cancelling the auto sub option. Don’t do any and then auto will kick in at the end. Given the nature of the game 95% will be doing manuals.
Manual means that you’ve made changes to your lineup whereas auto means that the game makes the changes for you, if you make one manual sub then you won’t be able to get auto subs no matter if the player that you put in plays or not.
Ninit are you taking the Pi– :whacky:
Sorry mate!
