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.

Morning all there seems to be a lot of love for Ron I thk Croatia winning this game but it’s a big risk without him 😉
Silvers
RMT ok here is my team fire away should I stick with Giroudddd or change to one of these Morata tough game Italy will keep it tight Lukaku will be an open game but who will turn up & Nani he has been playing well
Also should I take walker over Dier ?????????
inittowinit
It’s just a case of how’s your luck with that forward spot. Any could work. I took Walker but no real reason.
Mitro
Team good to go?
DMC
Uefa’s England reporter has Alli as unlikely to start. Anyone confirms This?
Silvers
Hey DMC see I’ve got you in Pottys draw can’t find anything on Alli have you found anything else
DMC
Cheers silvers. Yeah it’s on the fantasy site when you hit the player it says ‘unlikely to start’. I’m keeping him though, based on the comments here. We have similar teams bar the portuguese contingent so they better deliver for country and fantasy pride!
best of luck to everyone
inittowinit
Unless there’s an injury we haven’t heard about then I’d expect him to start and haven’t heard any different.
