Euro U21’s Competition, Potty Style!
Thanks for reading Euro U21’s Competition, Potty Style!
Good Evening and welcome to the launch of my Summer Competition. Given as UEFA have left all us good fantasy folk stranded with no actual competition to play I thought I would step forward to try and fill the void a bit with my own little competition, just to keep us entertained. The competition is based on the Under 21 European Tournament which starts on Friday 16th June. Screw UEFA then, let’s get on with it…
Your aim is to gather as many points as possible, its that simple.
Follow this link to the UEFA site to find all you need to know when selecting your men who’ll hopefully bring you European Glory (then click on the Under 21 tab).
Lets Play ‘Its A Pre-Tournament Gamble’
The Rules.
A – Select 5 players from any position you wish.
B – Highlight one as your Captain (C) for double points.
C – Your men may come from just one of the Under 21 teams or a pick and mix from any.
D – Your five man team must be picked ahead of the tournament starting, hence its all a Potty gamble.
E – There will be two groups which I’ll draw on Monday at 9pm, with the top four after the group stage is complete making the semi-finals stage.
The Potty Points System!!!!
All your players will gain points as follows…
Appearance (and even off the bench) = 15pts
Goalkeeper/Defender cleansheet = 25pts
Goalkeeper/Defender conceeding = -10pts per goal
Any player making an assist = 20pts per assist
Any player scoring = 30pts per goal
Yellow or Red Card flashed = -5pts & -8pts respectively.
Now pick your 5 star men from these teams…
Poland
England
Slovakia
Sweden
FYR Macedonia
Portugal
Serbia
Spain
Czech Republic
Italy
Denmark
Germany
The 1st part of the competition, and your 5 picks as per above, are for the group stages only. You will get to pick a different squad after that but stay tuned for details should you qualify that far.
So do a wee bit of research then post those men of yours below.
Cheers my dears x

What are peoples thoughts on the Spain line-up? in a quandary over Asensio and Niguez, still over 900 people have Asensio so to not have him could hurt if he does play, Niguez not so much but he’s a lot of money to pay for him to get benched! Arghhhhhh
I wouldn’t play either if I were them, they both played 90 minutes in both games.
Do you think Sandro Ramirez will play.?
Play maybe, doubt he starts. They already had two great options to start over him to begin with, don’t see why they wouldn’t’ t give Mayoral or Williams or both a run out
Can’t decide on a striker and its annoying the crap out of me.
I am going Williams from Spain. Really think they give him a go either up top or wide, but feel like he definitely will start. Honestly, I would start him over Sandro anyway.
Yeah I was thinking about him but wasn’t sure if he and the manager had a falling out because I would have thought he was first choice up top but that hasn’t happened.
Nah, no falling out. Sandro and Mayoral are very talented players themselves so it was always going to be difficult to start for Spain. He could have played out wide but then you run into Deulo and Asensio. That squad is loaded.
We will see how they come out, but I saw this possible formation on-line and it made sense to me. Sure some will be wrong, but I can see why they would line up like this.
Pau; Odriozola, González, Jonny, Gayà; Merino, Suárez; Soler, Oyarzábal, Williams; Mayoral.
Looks sensible. Doubt there will be much change to that.
