Euro 2016

Big Numbers – Last Four Matches – Part Two

After rolling out the first instalment of our two-part series of members’ articles covering the last four friendlies, we cast an eye over another batch of standout performers. The Belgium and France midfields come under analysis after some stellar recent displays, whilst we also assess a number of in-form forwards ahead of tonight’s opening match of Euro 2016.

    3. elkunaguero

      7 years, 11 months ago

      are you sure Hinteregger is first choice ahead of Prodl?

      1. 404_FC
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        i see he play a lot in friendly match

        should i change then ?

  2. elkunaguero

    When do you think it is the best time to wildcard in the UEFA game?

    1. GoonerByron
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      After the 2nd game

      1. WorldCupDanB
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        I see that mentioned a lot but why is that the best time?

        1. Cesc's old mullet
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 11 months ago

          Because some teams will have already qualified and some will have to give everything to go though.

          For example, if Germany are alerady assured to be 1st after 2 games, they're probably going to rest their top players, and you don't want to have Muller(10.5) not playing

          1. elkunaguero
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            7 years, 11 months ago

            cheers

          2. Camp No No
            • 10 Years
            7 years, 11 months ago

            But most teams will still have to battle for the much desired 1st place finish on the last round. Very possibly even Germany. It hasn't been beyond them to draw a group stage match, and that suffices.

            1. Cesc's old mullet
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 14 Years
              7 years, 11 months ago

              Of course, but with a WC to use anytime and one after the group stages, it seems like as good a time as any to WC

    2. donelshinoda
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      After second matchday

    3. FrankieTheGent
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      My reasons for after the 2nd are that france and swiss both have albania and romania in rds 1 and 2 and i'm loading up on them

  3. adstomko
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Thoughts on this?
    Sommer - (Patricio)
    Hector - Koscielny (C) - Ramos - (Lindelöf) - (Strinic)
    Alaba - Payet - Perišić - Özil - (Renato Sanches)
    Müller - Lewandowski - Nolito

    And you can change captain each day, but lose the original captain's double points right?

  4. GoonerByron
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Slightly different team.. Thoughts?

    Sommer
    Rami - RRod - Schar (Rose) (Giachherini)
    Hamsik - Sterling - Draxler - Payet (Junuzovic)
    Giroud (c) - Mandzukic - Muller

    1. GoonerByron
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Sommer (Patricio) that should be!

    2. Blurryface
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      I sank down with disgust when I saw sterling

      1. GoonerByron
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        😀 Feeling punty.. Want some England coverage and with Alli a major bench risk it was either Sterling or Lallana 😛

    3. Cesc's old mullet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Not feeling the Sterling pick, a bit out of form.

      Draxler is a risk.

      I like the Mandzukic punt

      Rest is good

      1. GoonerByron
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Yes, think Sterling and Draxler are risks but potentially massively explosive too. Sterling looked good in the first friendly vs Turkey I thought.

    4. RSS447
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      draxler to start ahead of gotze ?

    5. jayzico
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      I'm in the draxler camp too. High risk, high reward. It's a month of fun - screw playing safe

  5. donelshinoda
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Nolito or Morata please?

    1. Blurryface
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Depends on ur team

      1. donelshinoda
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        My front 8 :

        KDB, Perisic, Alaba, Hamsik, Alli
        Muller, Giroud, Nolito / Morata?

        1. Blurryface
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 11 months ago

          Go with Morata then. Wat abt ur def?

    2. MajesticWok
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Morata. Nolito a winger

  6. Yolo Toure
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Patricio // Sommer

    Rami // Hector // Lichsteiner // Juanfran // Guerreiro

    Payet// Alli // Hamsik // Ozil // Perisic

    Giroud // Nolito // Ronaldo

    RMT please! I'm only unsure about Lichsteiner and if Gurerrerio is nailed on to start

    1. Cesc's old mullet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Lichtsteiner is a good pick, carries an assist threat.

      Very good overall

      1. Yolo Toure
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        cheers

  7. StoichkovFPL
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    RP. RMT please

    Rui / Kozacik
    Rami / Hector / Juanfran / Schar / Strinic
    Fabregas / Junuzovic / Ozil / Payet / Perisic
    Muller / Morata / Giroud

    Any changes?

  8. harrylee107

    Thoughts on this squad
    Patricio/Kozacik
    juanfran rami guerriero / walker ciman
    perish debruyne stanciiu ozil / kukeli
    giroud Muller Ronaldo

    will change france rami before match if need be

  9. MajesticWok
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Ronaldo, Lewandowski and Ibra

    Gut says it's better to focus on the good teams, rather than the good players? Top scorers usually come from the better teams i.e. Spain, Germany etc.

    Thoughts?

    1. KingNidge
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Go with your gut

      1. George Sillett
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        And mine's plenty big enough.

    2. psgg
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Not seeing that much of teams with Zlatan, but he normally always scores, even if Sweden does bad.

  10. Christina.
    • 14 Years

    Pressure will be immense on France tonight.

    2-2 coming up.(Giroud)x2), Stanciu, Payet(OG), Rat)

    😕

    1. 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Isn't that 2-3?

          lol

  11. BENOIT
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    A.) Stanciu or Forsbug?

    b.) Alaba (got janko) or Cesc ?

    1. JacktheTard
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Alaba

    2. tm370
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      How many last day players do you have?

      I'm going with Cesc and Stanciu.

      1. JacktheTard
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        See below 🙂 Please RMT aswell

  12. JacktheTard
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Final Draft 2.1 RMT pls

    Babacan - Randoplh
    Howedes - Rami - Strinic - Guerriorio - Dragovic
    Mak - Payet - Pericic - Ozil - Junuzo
    Muller - Giroud - Ronaldo

    Feel this is perfect for me after changing 100 players the laster 3-4 days... GTG or no study for the rest of the day?

    1. Cesc's old mullet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Your GK combo is way too weak to my liking. Don't expect any points from them

      1. JacktheTard
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Babacan is for saves 🙂 Abit risky but kinda like i. Randolph is kinda weak, any suggestions?

        What about the rest?

        1. Cesc's old mullet
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 11 months ago

          Maybe Mak>Stanciu and Dragovic>Hinteregger, and use the 1.0 saved to upgrade your GKs

    2. clownbot2000
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Strinic - Guerreiro doubtful to start unless someone knows otherwise..? Then again if they stay on the bench its still a nice looking team

      1. BENOIT
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        This. I'd only want one of them to be honest

      2. JacktheTard

        Thanks for feedback!

      Are you?

  14. Garfield1001

    Thoughts on whether Sommer will start?

    1. Cesc's old mullet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      He will

        Reasoning?

  15. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Lindelof nailed on?

    1. Sweden11
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      No, think Johansson is the first choice just because he has played more games with Granqvist

  16. fenixri
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Ok guys I have some new info on Strinic situation.

    Yesterday on Croatian closed training first 10 minutes where opened for media. Croatian manager made first team with Strinic, later when media left he changed Strinic with Vrsaljko and put Kramarić on right forward wing for the rest of training. This was Croatian formation that trained for match against Turkey:

    Srna - Čorluka - Vida - Vrsaljko

    Badelj - Modrić - Rakitić

    Kramarić - Perišić

    Mandžukić

    2. clownbot2000
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      thanks for posting. Sounds too risky then for Strinic unless you don't mind him being a non playing 4.0 DEF which is still not a bad tactic

  17. Sweden11
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Good to go? Or any improvements needed?
    Mostly concerned over Denayer, will he play? Maybe should do:
    Rodriguez + Denayer --> Juanfran + Djourou

    Sommer Patricio
    Hector Rami Denayer Dragovic Rodriguez
    Payet Özil Perisic Alaba Forsbreg
    Muller Giroud Morata
