That's two players I considered for my team out (or in De Bruyne's case, likely ruled out)…
Cheers, hopefully we will get a few more people involved. I joined the Lets Talk FPL league also. Will check later to see what other Leagues are going on.
I'll have to join that one too! Haven't looked much at my team this last 3-4 days. Should probably take some time to make a few new drafts before the deadline.
Not changed my team since last week, wanted all the friendly's to finish. There is one striker I am considering though not sure if they will start. My defence is pretty nailed on now and so is most of my midfield. I currently have two England midfielders though which maybe a risk.
You should join our Fantasy Football League mate for the Euros.
Cant wait for the Euros to start, I have 3 weeks off from Friday to watch all the games lol
My god you will od!!!! @-) :))
I would be hopeless at the whole fantasy league, I'm a Norwich fan! :-j
I have only been playing it since the last World Cup, to be honest with the Euro's I really am not that clued up with players outside the bigger European countries .
It will be fun to watch your progress?! :-bd
Same here. Didn't want to invest too much time with drafts until the friendlies were over. Will try to find some time to settle on a formation tomorrow, then do the last bit of planning before the Friday night deadline.
I'm currently without any England players; it will either be Kane or no England assets, I think. Too difficult to pick from the rest of that squad.
I need to read the rules first :))
God just by chance learnt about the Captaincy rule, you can chamge Captaincy within a gameweek. Re: if say your Captaincy fails on one day of the gameweek you can change Captain to someone playing tomorrow within the same gameweek if I heard correctly.
I really need to get my head round this, will have to wait till Friday as not got any time during the week.
My latest draft I have managed to have 3 million still left in the bank.
Must watch...
I am going to have to listen to this about ten times, a lot to take in. In fact I am going to print out all the fixtures and put on my notice board so I can stratergize @-)
One day to go until the deadline of Euro 2020 Fantasy League GW1, details above for those who would like to join our league.
Nice! Better have a second look at the rules too before the deadline tomorrow.
Still no closer to landing a gameweek 1 team yet, but I have a few teams I want to cover.
7 hours to go... I need to get my head round the sub rules lol All the additional changes to the game will make it interesting, certainly the in game management aspect.
My team is not far off, its my midfield i am having issues with, not many stand out options at any price.
A few key pints to consider...
Manual substitutions
Between matchdays, you can make as many subs within your squad as you like.
After all matches on a single day have finished and before the next matches within that matchday kick off, you can:
Sub out a maximum of four players (unless they've been sent off), and replace them with any of your substitutes whose teams are yet to play within the matchday. Any players that you sub out will score zero points for that matchday
Change your captain to another player from your squad whose team are yet to play. Your original captain's double-points bonus will be lost, and your new captain's score for that matchday will be doubled.
Edited: Changed my team about 15 times lol I have not got a clue how these games are going to play out.
Really had to concentrate picking a starting eleven while having the sub rules in mind. I will no doubt forget it and mess up subs during the tournament, haha!
Finally managed to pick a team too. It's been a busy day, so I haven't had time to watch the Youtube videos I planned on getting through. Can only hope the team I ended up with isn't a disaster!
The team I eventually went with, I was changing things at the last minute lol I will just wing it otherwise i will tie myself in knots with the rules etc.
That's a really strong team! Didn't find a way to squeeze in many premiums myself, but at least we got more chances to change our teams a bit than in FPL, having two transfers for each matchday.
My team ended up like this:
Lukaku - Griezmann - Depay
Sané - Zieliński - Berardi
Bonucci - Mæhle - Kjær - Denayer
Hradecky
(Bachmann - Jota - P. Torres - Négo)
Good side, I was reluctant to get many group of death players in though I expect Portugal to do well against Hungary. I had Kane then remembered how poor we are in first games of Euro's. I will likely hit my wildcard in Matchday 2.
Berardi off injured, Italy have looked very good, I had them as potential winners with Mancini's pedigree as a club manager. Turkey looked very poor though.
Indeed, picking players from that group is a bit risky. Expect I will hit the wildcard button early too, but I might try and keep it just a little longer than Matchday 2.
Good second half by Italy, though as you mention, Turkey were poor.
In hindsight I wish I had found a spot for Immobile or Insigne too, but I wanted to cover quite a few teams. TV2 and NRK - the channels that share the Euro rights here in Norway, launched their own Euro Fantasy game which sticks closer to the regular FPL rules. I'm in a league in that game too, and made sure to pick Immobile and Insigne there – as well as Donnarumma.
Bonucci and Insigne were in my final draft, though soon as I saw the starting line up and Berardi and Spinazzola were starting I switched which allowed me to free funds to put both Ronaldo and Bruno in my squad.
I think Italy will be good value in the group stages certainly playing at home.
I have changed my Captain for todays games, though no substitutes used which was a no brainer.
That might prove a good decision in the end. Had no way of fitting Ronaldo and Bruno in my team, which is one of the main weaknesses of the team I ended up with. I will of course keep an eye on both, and should they score big in the first matchday already, I will have to consider how to get them in.
Yes! Sticking or twisting with the captains is probably the thing I like the most about the Euro Fantasy game. Keeping the armband on Berardi was an option, but I decided to chase the upside and placing the armband on Lukaku for today's game against Russia. I think Russia might be a tricky opponent, but Lukaku has been in great form this season.
I put the armband on Lukaku also with Depay and Ronaldo stand out choices for captaincy later on in my team. Not sure what to expect from Russia.
Yes, I have Depay as an option for the armband too, should Lukaku not deliver against Russia. Don't know what to expect from Russia, but they do have some decent players, like Artjom Dziuba and Aleksandr Golovin.
