    Scratch that
    Goal stands

    4-0 Denmark!!!

    lol that’s always disallowed in the prem. how can VAR vary so much to the prem

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Not looking for reasons to disallow goals helps, looking at armpits is beyond ridiculous.

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Yes

    2. Deulofail

      Not sure how you could possibly know that

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Last season any close calls where nearly always disallowed.

        Bamford at Palace, Kane at Elland road just a couple of examples

        1. Deulofail

          4 years, 5 months ago

          Not sure what you think the conspiracy is. The click on the bit they think is closest to the goal for both players and the lines tell tham if it's on or off. If there's any foul play, it's more likely from the Euros VAR when we can't see the lines. Unless you are happy for subjective 'margins of error' to be made on the fly

          1. Scapegoat Salah
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Just seems a coincidence to me that the Euros seems so different to VAR decisions made in the prem for similar calls. That goes for goals, offsides, fouls, pens everything.

            1. Deulofail
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              The refs have been getting less wrong in the Euros. It's a popular opinion that the standard of the on-field refs has been high (exceot maybe the last 2 games). And even in today's game, when the wrong decision was made (RC), the VAR failed to correct it, presumably, in your eyes?

              But we were talking about offsides, so it's we're that you're bringing in all the rules and decision types as your evidence. Seem like confirmation bias to me.

              1. Scapegoat Salah
                • 9 Years
                4 years, 5 months ago

                So then perhaps that’s the difference, Refs this tournament better than prem refs.
                That combined with the fact VAR isn’t overruling decisions enough across the board.

    3. KGFC
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Did they show the lines on your telly coz they didn't on my transmission. Was there an issue in that decision?

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        No I agree it should stand, but in the prem they rules those out more often than not

    4. Pukki Blinders
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      2 different types of clowns are in the var rooms clearly

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        I thought the whole point is it’s an automated Video assistant ref though

        1. Deulofail
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Huh?

          1. Scapegoat Salah
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            As in a computer is effectively making the offside decision, since it’s fact based, offside or not

            1. Deulofail
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Okay, well you thought wrong..?

              Not sure you have a point there. The idea is to allow refs to see replays to change wrong decisions.

                Another day another debate

              2. Scapegoat Salah
                • 9 Years
                4 years, 5 months ago

                I know that humans are interpretating the lines on the video, but that’s my point - it will inevitably lead to inconsistent decisions in the game.

                One of the pundits after the match in the BBC a studio even said the 4th goal was often ruled out in the prem.

                Offside is black or white, and should be determined by a computer, not interpreted by error making humans

                1. Deulofail
                  • 9 Years
                  4 years, 5 months ago

                  The lines aren't interpreted. They are just lines. We'll never know how that would have been called in the Prem. It's about where the VAR clicks for the body part they are judging. It might have been offside on another day in the Euros too.

                  But oh a pundit said that. I take it back. They are famously always correct about academic matters.

                  1. Scapegoat Salah
                    • 9 Years
                    4 years, 5 months ago

                    “It might have been offside on another day”

                    But that shouldn’t be the case with offside.
                    Prem or Euros shouldn’t matter either, decisions should be consistent.

                    The difference for me is like Rainer said, they don’t appear to be looking for stupid things like fingers armpits and breath.

                    1. Scapegoat Salah
                      • 9 Years
                      4 years, 5 months ago

                      And toenails

                    2. Deulofail
                      • 9 Years
                      4 years, 5 months ago

                      I don't understand your point. You were saying that it's different in the euros than in the prem. I'm saying it's not. Then you say above that VAR is bad across the board. Now you're saying it's different in the euros. You can't know what they're looking when they don't show it on screen, and with a small smaple size either. And you also don't know what the VAR decision would have looked like in the prem.

                      You can attempt to be as consistent as possible in the prem, but you can't have accuracy with the tech we have, as you allude to. But that's true for Prem and Euros. If Euros have been lenient (I have no evidence to believe this) when it comes to offsides, then you are enjoying a change to the rules that allows an attacker to be x-amount offside. If that's what you like, the fine, but it's not a VAR in VAR, but a preference for new rules.

                        • 9 Years
                        4 years, 5 months ago

                        *not a fault in VAR, but a preference for new rules (which does not solve the accuracy problem)

    Denmark vs Holland would be very tasty.

    1. Salarrivederci

      Netherlands will cry when they face us 😉

      1. Rainer

        4 years, 5 months ago

        Your 3 back is solid and fun to watch. Hopefully today's knocks aren't serious and Poulsen & Wass are back for it too.

  5. Thomas Magnum

    hahaha that is what is called a misery compiler

  6. Feloh

    Ended up with Poulsen as I thought he was nailed on.

    1. Pukki Blinders

      He is, injured

      Someone high up bet over 3.5 goals

  8. KGFC

    Wales dying for the game to finish

  9. Garfield1001

    Why does Damsgard will have 6 points??

    1. HollywoodXI
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Because EUFA apparently don’t apply their own rules.

    2. Bielsa's Bucket
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Played 60 = 2
      Assist = 3
      Cleanie = 1

      1. Better Call Raul
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Didn't play 60 though

    3. Fifa las vegas

      Pipe down!

    4. RogDog_jimmy
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I assume they’ll update it to 4.

      I saw someone say the UEFA game included first half stoppage time as ‘minutes played’ though maybe the 6 will stand?

      1. HollywoodXI
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        No the rules state added time doesn’t count.

  10. Bielsa's Bucket
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Gonna see big drop if you don't have that Damsgaard and Maehle combo oooft. Fair play if you got Dolberg in.

    1. Salarrivederci
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Got Mæhle + Schmeichel. Not as good as Damsgaard + Mæhle, but almost!
      Lloris can sit on the bench for now - gonna need him next round.

    Whoever plays Denmark next better be wary of the team's rising confidence. Not a team to be messed with...

    1. LSK

      Will be a match for anybody on that side of the draw

    Wales were pathetic! A team like Hungary would've done so much better!

    1. Thomas Magnum

      You're not entirely wrong either

  15. Steve The Spud

    Austria in the sweepstake let’s gooooooooooooooo

  16. Better Call Raul
    • 6 Years

    Need those 2 Damsgaard points chalked off.

  17. RogDog_jimmy
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Couldn’t be much of a better start.
    2 players. Both win through. 18(maybe 16) points.

    Anyone with Dolberg or C Mæhle way to go.

    Hope the Italy game is as perfect.
    Another 4-0 would be delightful!

  18. Salarrivederci
    • 9 Years

    Insigne (C), Berardi & Spinazzola up next!

  19. JONALDINHO

    Maehle and Damsgaard success. If only FPL was this easy

    1. Scapegoat Salah

      You’ve smashed it, bizarrely I’ve found this game much harder!

    Wales may still have lost but you have to question the format of this tournament that is meaning that some teams are having to do significantly more travelling than other teams therefore putting them at a disadvantage with tiredness etc.

    1. Dr. Rog
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      indeed. especially with covid going on, you would have thought they just play it in one place

      1. Thomas Magnum
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        I agree to an extent but don't fully understand what the situation is like in Europe but also think it's good that they have it over a few cities to allow travel to open up more in europe

  22. Tomerick
    • 11 Years

    Anyone know why Maehle had 13 points and now has 12?

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Maybe the accidentally added it as a goal from outside the box

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        *they

      2. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$

        Yep, exactly what happened.

    2. CaptMidnight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      They keep giving an extra point for a goal from outside the box then changing it.

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Intern thinks box is 6 yard box

    3. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Probably out of the box points were added

    4. Thomas Magnum
      • 10 Years

      Lost a BAP
      Not sure tbh, should've only had 12 from the start I'd have thought

    5. Tomerick

    Maehle and Damsgaard helping me climb up the ranks. Good start to the gameweek.
    Now it's time for Insigne to score a hatty with Berardi and Spinna assists

      Are you … EVERYONE?!

  25. Thomas Magnum
    • 10 Years

    Lol, Bale going to America to play for LA Galaxy would be in no way surprising

  26. WiredWeasel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    I would have liked to see Wales do well, but they can't have any complaints. They were completely outplayed by Denmark. Yes it was a foul on Moore, but they had plenty of time to react to the fact that the foul wasn't given, it's not like it was scored five seconds later and it was down to a defensive error. Same with the red card; probably not a red, but the ball wasn't near the Danish player when he went into him, so I don't see how he can claim he was aiming for/nearly got the ball. He clearly played the man not the ball! So I hope (and I'll assume to their benefit) that when Bale says they are angry and frustrated, it's because of their own performance.

    1. chocolove

      Yes. Toothless all over tournament. Except against the mighty Turkey. Lol

    Is Kane worth getting if he stays - as seems likely - at Spurs? They seem a club in crisis and he doesn’t want to be there.

    1. Tea for the Tielemans
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      My thinking is Kane and either Barnes or Maddison if Kane goes to City, Bruno and Antonio if he doesn't.

      Interesting to see if Nuno takes the manager job whether that might make Doherty interesting at 5.0, but for now I'm feeling like Spurs attacking assets should come with a warning label.

    2. LSK
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Nah, not at that price imo. So hard for strikers to keep up with the top mids. He needed to be top scorer and top for assists to keep up. Unless he goes to City I think it will be hard to have him next year - except for specific circumstances such as double gameweeks of course.

  29. JONALDINHO
    • 8 Years

    Wouldn’t be surprised if Denmark made the final

    1. FPL Pillars

      I would
