    With the WC in my pocket, I don’t know who to back from Italy or Belgium. If the Belgium injuries are not too serious I’m not sure how I’d call that one.

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Back 2 from both.

    2. Hart-ake
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Still worth going Lukaku imo. Think he can trouble that Italy def.

      1. GreennRed
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        He looked wrecked tonight. The Italian team have the inside track on him.

  2. Ginkapo FPL
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Netherlands, Portugal and Wales out. Transfers under pressure and were only halfway

  3. Fifa las vegas
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Stones captain it is!

  4. TheDragon
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    5 players through, 4 knocked out so far.

    It’s on a knife edge whether I can get 11 out next round!

      Those with WC still to play were big winners today with the Dutch exiting.

  5. Stranger Mings
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Looks like Kimpembe captain for me tomorrow !

    1. chocolove
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Alba for me
      Tasty with that perisic news

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Is the match still on?

      2. Stranger Mings
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Yeh wish I went Alba now rather than p Torres

    2. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Benzema for me

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Lucky you I only have p Torres or Kimpembe to chose from !!

    3. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Benzema. Only player left for tomorrow.

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Wish I had him over expensive flops of Immobile, lukuku & depay

        1. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          I had Ronaldo captain tonight. Plus Lukaku, Wijnaldum and Dumfries.

  6. amplifiedAnt
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Granted, my league is small. But between the lot of us, only one person had somebody that didn't blank (Meunier).

    Odd day.

  7. KGFC
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Over the 90 mins, think fair to say the better team lost.

    Portugal had 23 shots and 4 on target
    Belgium 6 shots and 1 on target

    Portugal also had more possession and all the corners in the game

    Got to question Jota for those misses and Patricio for his keeping.

    1. JBG
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      This 100x.

    2. azz007
      • 7 Years

      200
      Dissatisfied

    3. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Those stats are down to the last 10/15 mins. No real chances for either team over the course of the game

      1. KGFC
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        How does it matter if it's last 15 minutes or first 15? Still is part of the 90 minutes..no? Portugal had enough and more chances to score at least one.

      2. JBG
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Pretty sure Jota had 3 great chances before those 15mins.

        1. JONALDINHO
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Wouldn’t call them great chances and Jota isn’t necessarily the clinical type either

          1. KGFC
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 8 months ago

            One of his chances was pretty straightforward but others while not easy, should have atleast worked the keeper.

        2. @fpl_phenom
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          he was brutal again

    4. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      The better team never loses. Playing better football and creating chances don't decide a game. The final score is the only stat that matter. I didn't think they had it in them but Belgium did what they had to do

      1. PORTUGA
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Stopped reading after the first sentence sheesh

      2. Sanchit
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        This

    5. Sanchit
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      You could change the words and say -
      1. The team which was more clinical won
      2.The team with bad finishing lost
      3. The team who were able to make the most of their chances won

  8. Wirtzle Gummidge
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Haha Keane

  9. Zimo
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    This is great. Now Bruno can get the rest he needs before the matches start again.

    1. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      perfect 😉

  10. CoracAld2831
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Chances of KDB playing in the quarters?

    1. amplifiedAnt
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Just doesn't seem fit, on this evidence. After the Netherlands debacle I kinda need him to be, really.

    2. Costa Nostra
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      No update as of now... Wait for it over next few days

    4. azz007

      Seemed fine sat in the stands so don't look serious.

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Really hope he is fit after losing 4 Holland

  11. @fpl_phenom
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Sanchez or Bachmann between the sticks? and why ?

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Sanchez. We don't know what Bachmann can do in PL just yet.

  12. JONALDINHO
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone else think Bruno is extremely overrated? Can’t dribble past a player, lacks that guile / vision that sets apart the elite. Had a good bout of form in 2020 but has been very poor since the turn of the year. Don’t see where the hype comes from

    1. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      hes had a poor euros... probably knackered as hes played nearly every game last season ... no denying the numbers though

      1. JONALDINHO
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Without pens he has 9 goals and 12 assists in 37 games in the Prem. A good total but not ‘world class’ as some people make out

        1. @fpl_phenom
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          well hes a midfielder not a striker or wing forward... any midfielders beating that ?

          1. Sanchit
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 8 months ago

            He's pretty much a second striker rather than a midfielder.
            This is just United fans keeping him in the mids category so that they can say he's producing good numbers from midfield.
            Checkout his avg position, most of the matches he's so close to the striker.

        2. Big Hands Barry
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Most world class numbers are padded with pens though

          1. @fpl_phenom
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 8 months ago

            the numbers hes given are excluding pens

        3. Zimo
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          U know Salah had 16 goals and 5 assists too last season. R v not gonna count him as world class?

    2. KGFC
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      He is undone by the system Portugal plays. They don't let him take penalties 😉

    3. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      How man pints have you had? Poor in the Euros. Carrying Man Utd, though was poor the last few weeks of the season.

      1. FPL Joker
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        I’m not sure he’s as essential as some make out. In fact, I’d argue only Salah is and Kane if he signs for City. KDB is always gonna be benched every now and then and that’s just a nightmare. Fernandes I’m just not so convinced by. I don’t think the league will be as generous this season.

        1. @fpl_phenom
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          the same was said last season... Sancho's price could be interesting

          1. FPL Joker
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 8 months ago

            Was it? Fair enough. Is Sancho definitely signing for United then? Like Grealish is for City and White is for Arsenal?

          2. @fpl_phenom
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 8 months ago

            To put it in perspective the totals last season in the prem were :

            32G/A for Bruno playing midfield

            vrs

            28G/A for Salah playing as a wing forward

            Are these world class numbers? ... absolutely

            1. FPL Joker
              • 8 Years
              4 years, 8 months ago

              Yes, so would you say that KDB, BF & Salah are a must then?

              1. @fpl_phenom
                • 10 Years
                4 years, 8 months ago

                the problem is having all three completely unbalances the team... I tried to break the mold last season and went without salah for a long period as I believed Liverpool would struggle compared to the previous season... I was right however, I didnt factor in that Liverpool could Struggle with Salah still doing the business in FPL ...

                This season I plan to start with both ... if theres signs somethings not right with either they are an easy switch to any other premium or downgrade to a mid price mid.

            2. Sanchit
              • 10 Years
              4 years, 8 months ago

              Bruno is not a midfielder. His role is more like a second striker.

          3. GreennRed
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 8 months ago

            Do United not need a Number 9 rather than another winger/attacking mid? And a psychologist helping them getting an early goal.

            1. @fpl_phenom
              • 10 Years
              4 years, 8 months ago

              Wont get one this summer I feel with Cavani extending his contract... probably next summer...

              Sancho Varane and a midfielder looks likely this summer

        2. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          His value to Man Utd isn't reflected in FPL points. He's extremely overrated if you judge him on FPL attacking returns.

          1. @fpl_phenom
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 8 months ago

            he was the top scoring midfielder in FPL... how can you call him overrated in terms of FPL returns?

            Hes incredinbly important for utd regardless of goals and assists but he does them too ... which is great... 🙂

            32G/A in 37 games last season is incredible returns in my opinion...

            1. GreennRed
              • 14 Years
              4 years, 8 months ago

              I'm not saying he's overrated in FPL returns. I'm saying some people only judge him on his FPL returns and not the metrics not measured in FPL: workrate, big game temperament, leadership, hatred of losing etc.

            2. JONALDINHO
              • 8 Years
              4 years, 8 months ago

              People judge him based on his FPL returns when he’s simply not that good. Same with Salah to an extent although I don’t know why you brought him in to the argument. I rarely see some individual brilliance from Bruno. His stats are mainly composed on pens and 5 yard assists. Goes missing in big games. Still a great player but not special by any means

              1. Simon69
                • 13 Years
                4 years, 8 months ago

                I stopped reading at "composed on pens".

              2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
                • 16 Years
                4 years, 8 months ago

                In the same post, you've described Bruno as

                "simply not that good", "still a great player" and "not special by any means"

                😆

      2. Zimo
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        That was becasue Ole is a sadist and didn't give him any rest :p

      3. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Yea. He looked like he needed a holiday before the end of the season. And now he is supposed to get it, so it is impossible to know now whether he will be in form or not when season starts.

    4. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I’m certainly racking my brains mate

      He’s only got 51 returns in 52 appearances

      Don’t see where the hype comes from at all

  13. 03farmboy
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Which players from France score the most points tomorrow?

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Benzema. 😉

    2. FDMS All Starz
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Will probably finish 2-0 so everyone will average about 6pts

    3. Ange Ball
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Pogba and Grez

  14. CoracAld2831
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Immobile - Fail
    Depay - Fail

    Who's next?

    A: Benzema (v SWI)
    B: Sarabia (v CRO)
    C: P. Torres (v CRO)

    Initial thought was Benzema, but after today, no clue tbh.

    1. CoracAld2831
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Captain choice in question btw.

    2. Big Hands Barry

    4. RogDog_jimmy
      • 5 Years

      Benzie for me.
      Also have Sarabia.

    5. CoracAld2831

      Thank you everyone.

  15. Pariße

    Really have nothing bad to say about how VAR has been used in this tournament so far. Its implementation in EPL is far more problematic.

    1. Big Hands Barry
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Agreed

    2. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Being used for clear errors like it should be.

    3. FPL Joker
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I think it’ll be better in FPL this season. Teething problems last season and less old conservative British managers scared of change.

  16. wagner is king
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    which France defender that is nailed on has the most chance of attacking returns?

    1. FPL Joker
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      That is an oxymoron: only Varane and Kim are ‘nailed on’ but neither is likely to get ‘attacking returns’.

    2. FPL Joker
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      If you must, Lucas at this stage but Digne is waiting.

      1. Sanchit
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        I thought Lucas Digne was one man.
        Ohh do you mean Hernandez?

  17. Hart-ake
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Captain Benzema or Mbappe tomorrow?

    1. RogDog_jimmy
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Benzie on pks and also more central it seems.
      Though I wouldn’t be surprised for Mbappé to finally knock a couple in.

      Like the double attack option.

      1. Hart-ake
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah have a feeling that this is the one where Mbappe explodes. Cheers.

      2. FDMS All Starz
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Have a sneaky feeling Griezmann will be back on pens, think he gave the pen to Benzema just to get his goals for the euros going

    Is anyone considering cavani to start the fpl season (in addition to bruno)

    He should he nailed for the first month before Europe kicks in, right?

    Thanks

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Considering yes, however not sure I fancy him over Watkins or dcl

      1. Flynny

        My current team has buendia cavani dcl.....

    My 2nd draft I made when the game launched , which is my current team, is made up of the 4 most owned mids and 3 most owned fwds, template lol

  21. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years

    What’s with Mourinhio bashing Shaw still. Seems like that man can never let down a grudge and always has to have the last word.

    1. Simon69
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Tells you everything you need to know about him a man - Hasn't been employed at United in years but still slandering their players. The man stopped being relevant a long time ago.

  22. Kiwivillan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Alba or Benzema C? Leaning Alba

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Benzema

    2. FDMS All Starz
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Depends, if you think Spain have a better chance of keeping a CS than Benzema scoring vs switz then go for Alba, if viceversa then go for Benzema…teams are good in this part of the tournament so high scoring is unlikely so maybe a CS is a better shout. Anything more is a bonus for both

  23. Carlton P
    • 10 Years

    A) Rashford + Robbo

    Will there be any price changes before QF deadline?

    Sarabia (c) for a punt or play it safe and go with Benzema?

    Benzema or Pavard (c) for tomorrow?

    I have Forsberg as backup but not expecting much from him, should I bank on France keeping a CS or Benzema scoring? Anything more is a bonus

      Benz. Slight chance pavard doesn't start

      Pavard will start he was rested last game for this game. Put it on Benz if you don't care about rank. If you want to try jump rank then Pavard.

    Captain Benz or Mbappe?

      if your looking for rank I pick Mbappe Many people will put it on Benz thinking he will take pens. Grez allowed him last game.

    Currently ranked 2k. I have 4 Dutch and Ronaldo who do I get in knowing highly likely these players will reach the final. Seems more upsets on the cards this week. Love to finish in top 1k...

      Well you should wait for the other games obviously.

      Italy v Denmark is tough - not sure who I’d want from them. Think the Italians are better - especially if KDB and Hazard injuries are serious. Wonder if Chiesa comes into the starting lineup. He’s looked great.

      Danes v Czech is also tough. Think Czech are super well organized and can see them shutting down Damsgaard and Co. I’d think of getting in Coufal & Mæhle (if you don’t already).
      Maybe Holes or Shick too - they’re cheap and clearly have something good going on

    Is there a prize for being #1 for the match day score in the FFS Just East league or UEFA league?

      How do you see where you come in a match day?

        I'm not sure how to do that, but I can sort the overall league and the FFS league by "round score" and I can see myself in the top 10. Rare chance to win a pen or something?? haha
