Euro 2020/21 Fantasy Football
Welcome to the FF247 hub for the Euro’s. As per our Champions League article this shall be the main place for the duration of the comp and will act more as a destination to gather and discuss it all, rather than being anything of particular fantasy use.
What you need to know
How to play?
You have a couple of options here;
Click here to join via a desktop or webpage.
Alternatively you can simply update your UEFA Games App (the one you may have used for the CL) and it will show up as a dual purpose one with the Euros game on there.
The Rules
This game is exactly as per the CL one with in-game matchday-by-matchday substitutions and Capo changes available between each day.
We expect most of our league members will be au-fait with these rules but if you are unsure then simply ask in the comments below and somebody will always be on hand to explain further.
Or simply click here for the full explanation.
Hints, tips, squads, line-ups etc…
For once UEFA have actually made a pretty good job of this and so we won’t be bothering to post any of the above as articles as it is pretty much all there for you. They have the entire raft of squads posted on both their website and on their official App along with a run-down on every single team.
The FF247 League
We are not running a ‘public’ league for this one, we are keeping it in-house for the summer fun and as such we have our usual ‘Regulars League’. We did post the league code in the comments section previously but this has now disappeared. The good news is that the majority of our usual CL crew saw it and have already joined,
For anyone who didn’t then simply drop us an email on;
contact@fantasyfootball247.co.uk
All we ask if you enter the league is that you please keep the code to yourself and don’t divulge it to family or friends who do not frequent the site. This is for the FF247 Community who will be commenting and interacting on here and we would like to keep it that way. Ivan (The Terrible) will be keeping a watch and if you do then expect to be dealt with harshly!

Anyone put together a limitless team for MD2 yet?
This is the best I’ve put together so far.
IvanTheTerrible
Gear, looks solid.
We need to see the remaining games because I think Spain vs Poland will be an interesting game and some players could play a key role.
Wanton
You don’t want six players who play on the last day of MD2. It will cause you a headache if England, Italy and Lukaku do well. I’d put some Russians in. They have to win or they’ll be sent to a gulag
IvanTheTerrible
Wanton is right.
The best way when building a team is to switch from price/fixtures to dates from time to time. That way you can make sure there is no a cluster of players from the same day. 3 or 4 players for each of the four days of MD2 is ideal.
Stone Frog
I would mix it up with a few more teams. May be Malinovsky of Ukr vs Macedonia.
OddDane
Golovin v Finland

Makes sense, I’ll look to trim to only having 3 that play on the final day

Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
Is there a full version of that?
Saw he updated his Facebook today.
His set was excellent.
inittowinit
That’s the only one I’ve ever had. He sent it to me years ago and I’ve cherished it ever since. It’s superb in its simplicity.
Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
Agree mate. Lovely piece.
OddDane
Forgot to sub in my keeper
OddDane
Oh well… That didn’t matter much as it turns out
IvanTheTerrible
Only an assist from Alaba but I will take it
bees393
Are you using unlimited chip next Ivan? And what after that?
My team is not looking good with 3 from Denmark…not sure what to do with it going forward.
Yes, grateful for Alaba’s assist.
Aarron13
Far to early using unlimited I reckon, what’s the plan for gameweek 3?, When most teams would have qualified
Wanton
Limitless for MD2, then WC for MD3 will solve all your problems
IvanTheTerrible
Bees, not sure at all.
I need to see the rest of the games in MD1. I even have the idea to save this chip for the quarterfinals when we’ll only have 3 FT and 8 teams will disappear.
Plus, don’t forget, unlike FPL this chip has no budget limit which means you can build a team with the most expensive players without worrying about cash.
bees393
It sure is a challenge.
Aarron13
Wildcard in the Knock out stages would be great, all comes down to what happens in the next 2 days
Otieno
I think WC for last 8 will be useless for me. If I don’t have enough players from last 16 go through then that will probably mean that GW4 crashed. Then I wouldn’t be able to recover WC or not.
Wanton
Considering he’s playing CB, the assist is pure gold
Aarron13
It’s wrong he’s a midfielder on the game really
Wanton
He usually plays LMF or LWB, but today he played RCB for reasons unknown
Otieno
Yes Steck starts!
Doesn’t matter now since I’ve stuck with Donna but I’m happy that I said all the way that Krul wouldn’t play
Gear
He will if they end up in a penalty shoot out
Little Red Lacazette
Hey OT, how has the Euro fantasy been for you so far?
Otieno
Not too bad. 68 with 3 to play I think
OddDane
Nice going
IvanTheTerrible
Netherlands vs Ukraine
IvanTheTerrible
Wijndal on the bench.
That’s it, no more cheapos. At least two premium defenders
OddDane
At this rate I wonder how many even have a full set of defenders
And please… Spare me the Hradecky talk…
IvanTheTerrible
Don’t know but still can’t get over Meunier
Had him in my draft all week and then went for those cheap bench warmers
Wanton
Meunier also started as a bench warmer
We might still get some points from Wijndal.
OddDane
He’s the highest scorer so far right? Really feel cheated on that one – was warned he wouldn’t start, he didn’t and yet… Chaos!!
Aarron13
To be honest I’ve got Cancelo he’s been ruled out with Covid
Otieno
+1 unfortunately I changed Pepe for Cancelo
Otieno
My cheapos played! It was Cancelo who went off sick
Aarron13
I did take a punt on Dumfries that worked tonight, only wanted Cancelo for this game tomorrow aswell lol
