Euro 2012

Euro 2012 – Captain Poll – Matchday 2

So…stick or twist? That’s the quandary facing Fantasy owners of Robert Lewandowski in the McDonald’s game after the Polish forward grabbed a goal and 12 point captaincy return in this evening’s 1-1 draw with Greece.

The Borussia Dortmund man was quick out the blocks, grabbing the opener after just 17 minutes and vindicating the 44% who voted him top of our Matchday 1 Captain Poll. Nodding home a cross from Jakub Blaszczykowski, Lewandowski looked primed to notch more after Greece were reduced to 10 men but the co-hosts failed to make their advantage pay before Wojciech Szczesny’s dismissal made the numbers even.

With Holland squaring up to Denmark tomorrow and Germany facing Portugal, there are plenty of options to consider. We rolled out the Captain Poll for Matchday 2 just after 5pm and already Robin Van Persie is an overwhelming favourite for tomorrow’s matches, acquiring 69% of the votes cast so far. Wesley Sneijder, Ibrahim Afellay and Arjen Robben also look in strong form heading into Saturday’s early kick-off, with Sneijder just sneaking into second place.

Later tomorrow evening, Germany’s clash with Portugal affords plenty of options, too. Mesut Ozil, Thomas Muller and Lucas Podolski all look certain starters for Joachim Low’s side, while uncertainty still remains over who will lead the line – Miroslav Klose or Mario Gomez? Cristiano Ronaldo is also likely to pick up some support prior to tomorrow’s deadline in the McDonald’s game but one thing’s for sure – if it’s filled with half the incident of this afternoon’s encounter, we’re in for an entertaining day.

    Was interested in whether the recovered ball rule was worth investing in so here's a breakdown of RB's from the first 2 games, obviously each player gets a point every 5 RB's-

    Hubnik (cze) 16
    Sivok (cze) 14
    Denisov (rus) 13
    Ignashevich (rus) 9
    Wasilewski (pol) 8
    Dzagoev (rus) 8
    Zyryanov (rus) 7
    Anyukov (rus) 7
    Zhirkov (rus) 7
    Kadlec (cze) 7
    Boenisch (pol) 6
    Selessie (cze) 6
    Torrosidis (gre) 6
    Karagounis (gre) 6
    Shirokov (rus) 5
    Katsouranis (gre) 5

      Meh, wrote a fairly long post and it just disappeared into the ether. Gah. In summary: go and feck yourself Chesney. At fault for the goal, gave away a pen and got sent off. Bye bye.

      I also just read the rules ( yes, I know ) and discovered that if we change the captain then we lose all his points. 😯

      I've got Shirokov as El Jefe at the moment but I think I'm going to swap. Maybe. Is there a deadline for swapping the captain? Sorry Gaz but I have almost no idea what I'm doing.

      Greece vs Poland was poor but exciting. Strange game but if that's going to be style of the tournament then I won't complain.

      Mrs.Ketsu thought the Greeks looked like "Ten sardine fishermen and a homeless guy". Seriously, what is up with Samaras - he's probably a millionaire but looks like an extra from a cheapo 80s zombie movie. Creepy.

        My pardner feckingwell had the Greek keeper and Szechny between the sticks. Guess who he played? So now he is not even able to take him out for a non playing keeper to get us a big fat Zero. No, we are stuck with a -2.

    Erm, so if your player gets sent off then you can't sub him out. Is that right? You're stuck with him?

      Yeah thats right, its a fairly harsh rule. And if the refs all perform like the Pol - Gre game then we may be seeing a fair amount. Makes me consider pen takers for 'diving' teams like Spain though.

      Andersen wont get a CS.. could concede 2 and you'll end up with 1 point.. stick

      then don't. or do. whatever. are you just playin for fun? rollin the dice whenever there's a slight chance of hittin the jackpot? or you wanna take it seriously, practice prudent restraint, not indulge your more vicarious urges? andersen could get -3. he cud get 10. do one or the other, but don't dwell on it or think it actually matters

          get a rough estimation of his expected pointage. cs odds, number of saves you expect him to make, the bare,bare chance of a penalty save. then consider which you wud regret more- him gettin 9 points on your bench or - 3 in your eleven. divide one by the other and your decision is made

    if you read our vision, France is willing to drop our guard to an honorable opponent. So you'll find out if you're honorable or not soon. 😉

    using your WC so early is like Gambling.. you get 8 free transfers for the semis and 4 for the final.. if you back the wrong horse you could end up with very few good players for the final.. better to save the WC for the final imo

      I agree with that exactly.

      I thought his movements and link up play was to notch, you won't get that from pav.

      The boy is a goal scorer just had an off day. He will start next game but may have to be content with 70min each time out....

        yeah. don't get me wrong, i think kerzhakov's teamwork, movement and general overall play was top notch. it's just that his wastefulness cudda cost em the result. and pav was very good. he worked as hard as he's ever worked. but it seems moot 🙂

    Like many others, Lewandowski currently has the armband in my team and because I have at least one offensive threat in each of the other three groups (Ozil, Silva, Young) I could potentially get three more decent bites at the cherry over the remaining three days of Matchday 1.

    OK, there's a chance of ending up with a non-playing skipper from group D, or one who gets sent off or concedes a penalty. But barring those eventualities, it seems that the worst that could realistically happen is that one ends up with 4pts instead of 12pts. So the question is, is it worth risking the 8pt hit in the hope that one of (say) Ozil, Silva or Young out-peforms Lewanowski? Or put another way, is a bird in the hand worth more than three goes at the two in the bush?

    Am I able to change the captain from RVP to Torres but if Torres does nothing am I able to switch to Benzema/Young. The question is am I able to switch my captain more than once in the match day?
