          I recall a previous Euros ML where the wonderful combo of Turkish defender Fukal and Italian great Totti were combined to compelling effect.

                Come have a look at another FPL project if interested. Many familiar faces there. Send a message to Kurt-grohl@gmx

                Hope to see you there.

      It's not only about missing out on Europe. It impacts
      - Keeping hold of star players
      - recruiting players
      - revenue for FFP

        All 3 issues can be solved by money.
        In first 2 you spend it on players excessive wages and in the latter one you spend it on good solicitors who can delay any proceedings indefinitely (just like Man City)

    Is FFS going to have data for the Euros for the custom tables, like they have done previously?

      They have done in the past, hopefully, they will again, not that I'm playing any euro fantasy. Time to take a break for a couple of months

    If Southampton get promoted it will lead to a fine jousting match in the midfield. Smallbone vs Longstaff, who will win?!

      Devasted Leeds fans should take some consolidation from the fact that they now have another season of winning most of their matches and being one of the best teams in their league. Seems better than another season struggling in the premier league, getting beaten in most games and getting relegated again.

      Flekken - Strakosha
      T Hernandez - Cancelo - Dimarco - Di Lorenzo - Mittelstadt
      Fernandes - KDB - Wirtz - Guler - Chakvetadze

      Keeper will be the most nailed 4.5. Thoughts?

                Is the UEFA one the ‘correct’ one?
                Reason I ask is because one year I was taking part in a completely different one to everyone else!

                  Yeah. Gaming.uefa. used to be plastered in McDonalds ads and I swear I could smell burgers and chip oil every time I went in.

                  Its clunkier than FPL but its okay.

                    It’s not bad at all, unfair stick

                      21 days, 20 hours ago

                      Honestly not giving it stick. I like it, just not as much as FPL but maybe thats all to do with familiarity. It needs to be clunkier I guess in order to accomodate the swapsies, dates of games, etc, thats all. The main thing I dont like is you have to sub out then sub in instead of just swapping player for player.

                  Yes. The UEFA Fantasy game for Euro 24 is the one most on here who are interested will be playing.

        Unlike you, I want to get a lot of bench points and occasional bench jam. 21 pts is my jam record and I still remember it. Having good bench players is just fun 🙂

        1. KAPO KANE
          • 7 Years
          21 days, 19 hours ago

          Fair, never works out for me, Mbeumo and Palmer had loads of bench hauls for me this season.
          Not to mention the Bruno TC Gvardiol VTC debacle too, always on the wrong end of the jam!

          1. Baps hunter
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            21 days, 19 hours ago

            I benched Palmer only thrice, twice against MCI. He got 6-2-2 in those occasions. Having good bench helps to handle short term injuries.

            1. KAPO KANE
              • 7 Years
              21 days, 19 hours ago

              I bought him really early on, my first memory of benching him was Arsenal at home, also Luton away and Spurs away.
              I’ve been burnt too much this season so definitely going fodder.

                21 days, 19 hours ago

                I bought him at 4.9. You really believe you would have had better season if you had bought him later?

                1. KAPO KANE
                  • 7 Years
                  21 days, 19 hours ago

                  No I believe I would have had a better season had I just had a fodder 3rd striker and put more money elsewhere in the XI

          True, actually. This makes me wonder if something actually has happened to him. Perhaps he has accidentally converted to meat eater and has issues therefore. Or perhaps something less dramatic.

                A friendly game of hide&seek went terribly wrong. I've been stuck in an attic with no signal, eating only bugs and drinking rainwater from a thankfully leaky roof. The joys.

              Minor differentials (eg Trippier over Shar, White over Saliba etc) are an easy way to gain rank with little risk.

                ...and someone in that thread claiming this set-and-forget yields 2682 points. I haven't verified either claim.

                  Nobody would have selected Palmer as captain GW1 though. With fewer PL/Cup fixture clashes next season maybe we will get back to the days when a set and forget team could have won FPL.

                    Of course they wouldn't, but he was a validly priced option.
                    It is far more difficult for a theoretical set-and-forget team to outscore the FPL Champion since the introduction of chips.

                      21 days, 7 hours ago

                      ... although it might be possible to get a bit closer if a set-and-forget squad is allowed to Bench Boost in GW1.

                      OR1 was achievable with without making a single transfer in the first season (2017/18) that the current set of chips was introduced (see link below) but I don't think it has been possible during/since the pandemic due to the number of blank & DGW and we've been getting season after season but that looks like its going to change

                      https://thevideoscope.com/2018/07/07/win-fpl-without-transfer-changes/

                        21 days, 5 hours ago

                        Checking back, I see that the chips were originally introduced in 2015/16, but in 2017/18 the All Out Attack was replaced by the Free Hit chip and the Main and January Wildcards were replaced by two half-season Wildcards.

                        OR 1 was however achievable, and by a considerable margin, in both 2015/16 and 2017/18, and would have tied with the FPL Champion in 2020/21 if it was allowed to play its Triple Captain chip in GW1.

                        So perhaps it might still be possible for a set-and-forget team to beat the World number one in the future after all.

                    I haven't checked whether that team would have scored 2682 points, but if that is correct then it would only have cost 97.5m in GW1 and would have finished 74th.

                    This is very important. I checked to see if the game had opened just before I left my work one day last July but it was still updating. I drove home, checked again and it was live. I auto picked and registered quickly but my FPL ID was doomed to being well into six figures. This filled me with a profound sense of casualness and my season never recovered. This year I will be commuting by train when the time comes.
