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.

DMC Do we thk Crdric will start
Most definitely silvers.
DMC will Guerr come back in ?
Silvers – we’ll need the line up to be sure on that one. He has resumed normal training today so if no bumps in recovery he will come back in.
Thinking of putting Muller instead of Bale as a differential its a big game & he has done nothing but just feeling it will be so hard for Whales to create anything without Ramsey thoughts please
I have Bale and had Muller until last round. Could be a good move but Muller has really let me down this tournament sadly I have a bet for him to be top goalscorer and we’ve all seen how that has worked out!! Don’t know what to say to be honest.
That’s a tough one silvers. I think that if wales are going to score it’ll have to come from Bale. On the other hand, Muller is supposed to score a bunch of goals per final tournament so he’s definitely due one. The problem seems to be that Joachim does not trust him as the lone striker which suggests Goetze will play up front (as per gw1), thus diminishing Muller’s prospects further more.
Well, I have just bought Bale for the quarters (for Muller!) and although he didn’t score and even with my Portugal bias I’m not taking him out!
Class player and it’s all about which players you like more at this stage.
I believe Goetze is out and wont take any pt again so I figure he will have to play Muller up front time for risks I have loaded up on Portugal Def 3 off & Rent with Ron , heavy on France 6 off with 4 Germans if Wales and Germany go though which is possible I will only have 4 , fortune favors the brave 😉
What’s this about Goetze? Haven’t heard anything and the uefa bloke has him as “Highly likely to start next game”. Where did you hear this silvers?
*Gomez
He’s out for the rest of the tournament.
Hamstring gone someone tweeted it & down as Hamstring on Euro site
Ah ! Gomez! Yeah, he’s out…
Apparently Muller has never scored in the Euro’s!
I think France are gonna bash them up pretty bad.
Lol good luck with that one
What do we thk NIN to much of a risk who are you backing to go though ?
France and Wales I reckon. There’s no way I’d sell Bale unless Wales are knocked out.
Can anyone tell me why people are importing the letter e into the names of German players? It happens a lot and it’s baffling. Oezil, Goetze, Mueller…. what the fuck is going on?
No idea NeIN!
:smirk:
It’s getting closer….
:shiftyeyes:
when is the exact date?
Probably after the Euros have finished so that there are no other distractions when they launch it.
There is no set date. It was rumored to be launching this afternoon but they’ve had a setback. Next few days I’d say.
NIN, the site was due to go live today which it has done so I’m not sure if they’ve had a setback.
For those of you on Twitter make sure you follow @markrogers1 as he appears to have the inside track.
Too early mate. The wounds are still deep.
You know you won’t be able to help yourself NIN 😉
I’ll do my best to stay away, but yeah, good luck with that one
Anyone know if theres any way i can access my fpl team from last season?
Nah it’s gone now, can’t see anything.
Anonymous, drop them an email. Worked for me. Then send you the link to your team. Gives you access to your team and your leagues and respective teams. This was after they shut down the old site but I had to insist given their reluctance to give me any data after the first email.
Thanks, what link did they give you?
Anonymous, this is the link I got on june,14 but it know redirects to the new site http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/23925/history/
You just need to know what your team ID was last season and you can replace DMC’s in his web link. If you know it and if you ask him for it.
If i cant get access to my team, is there a way to see player scores from individual gameweeks?
Not that I’m aware of
I’m sure there is but I can’t think of it off hand right now. Pretty sure fpldiscovery has this in his archives somewhere.
Got this on google so if you go to his site and have a mooch around I think you may find what you need.
Cheers
