Euro 2016 Fantasy Football Live Match Chat – The Knockout Phase
Just as the UK votes on a possible Brexit, the group stages at Euro 2016 have been completed with some unfortunates already on their way home, while all the Home Nations secured to Remain for a while longer as England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland all qualified for the round of 16. You will notice a few changes to the fantasy game, so please allow us to run you through them so you are fully up-to-speed.
Price changes – some players price has increased, but only by a minimal amount it would appear. For example Dimitri Payet’s price has risen from 8.0mln to 8.1mln!! So, nothing to get too worried about.
As a result, your budget has increased by 5mln to 105mln, which not only reflects the price changes but also the fact that most of the smaller teams and cheaper players are no longer available due to them being knocked out, hence there are less budget options available.
Transfers – for this round you have an unlimited amount of transfers. For the quarter-finals you will have 4 free transfers, for the semi-finals you will have 6 free transfers and for the final you will have 6 free transfers.
Team personnel – you can now select four players from a single team for the round of 16, followed by five players for the quarter-finals, six for the semi-finals and eight for the final.

How dare you
Who should I go for as cappo?
Head says payet, gut says giroud
Hennessey
Well, I’m disgusted to have missed most of that game, tuned in in the second half as France were dominant.
Well done to the lads though, they’re absolutely shite so this is a great effort in the Euro’s.
Fatherland vs Hamsik
Nice, I thought the Belgians were up next. I can watch that game later in work now, have a feeling it will be a good one.
Looking forward to both of these games. Should be good. Love watching the Germans.
I’m off to work soon so I’ll miss ze Germans but yeah they should be good games. If they’re even 1% as entertaining as that fight last night we’ll be in for a treat. (Thurman v Porter, not Joshua)
Who we all got? Just Hector and Ozil for me. Fancy an Ozil goal and assist in this one.
Hector and Howedes for me :noshake:
Boateng, Kroos and Gomez
You do? Pfft, that’s the end of that so. You win
Muller is invisible :-/
Plays an odd role in this set up. He’s still effective though. For them, not so much for us.
Lies, i seen him on the field. Sheesh.
Looks like Kroos was taking most of the free kicks and corners instead of Ozil? I think a mil difference in price.
He was indeed. Just wish he’d taken the pens off him as well
I really hope he leaves Madrid. This holding role bollocks is annoying. Release the Toni!
