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.

    Mak or Junuzovic?

      Id say Junozovic, plays in a more important role for a better team in an easier league

    Rookie question alert! if i have stanciu on my bench tonight should i play him if i want to get his points and possibly keep him and not sub him out if he does well or well he come on for one of my non -players tonight and then i have option to sub him out?

      I don't understand your question, but if you have Stanciu in your team have him in the starting 11 because he plays the first day so you can swap him for anyone that plays after him.

      Your bench should always be the last players to play in that week ie groups E and F

      yes, all of your 15 players should get a chance in first 11 so start the ones who play first and keep those from last 2 days on bench to sub in for the poor performers

        thanks guys that helps

    which looks better:

    A) Özil + Hamšik (no Spain coverage)
    B) Silva + Mak (Silva can also be KDB to save a FT for later)

    1. themilkyjoe
      • 8 Years

      KDB + Mak or Ozil + hamsik

      id avoid Silva, spain look shaky in a hard group and silva is expensive

        Thanks. Want Silva because he has a better first game than KDB and can do a straight swap using my FT, but it might be smarter to just save it....

    Any help - Hamsik or Calhanoglu? (already have perisic)

    1. themilkyjoe
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 12 days ago

      Hamsik - he's in an easier group

    hey guys one clarification regarding assist in Mcdonald fantasy, if the scorer takes more than one touch then it wont count as an assist for the player who gave him the pass, right?

    1. themilkyjoe
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 12 days ago

      I wasn't aware of this? where did you read that?

      1. King_Kunta
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 12 days ago

        "No assist is given to a player who creates his own goalscoring opportunity (e.g. solo run/dribble)."
        this bit confused me.

        1. themilkyjoe
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 12 days ago

          Oh no, that's just the usual way of counting assists. Basically if a player isn't set up by a direct pass etc then it wont count as an assist.

          It would be unfair if it wasnt counted if they took more than one touch, like if there was an insanely good pass, someone shifted it to their stronger foot then slotted it away and it wasnt counted

    Hi.
    Playing A Norwegian fantasy game. Shaqiri is A midfielder. No brainer?
    Also, are anyone going without Spain cover?

    muller was playing really deep against ukraine. Should I replace him with someone else? What options do I have considering my other two forwards being kane and giroud

    1. Yeah. Sell him. Get Zlatan. 😉
