    New Pro Pundit Andy (see hot topic) and I recorded a Group A preview video for anyone interested:

      Hey AZ,
      Love it! Thanks!

      Maybe I missed it, but to me it seemed like you did not consider the fact, that the lineups for the first match (Turkey - Italy) will be available to us before the GW kicks off.
      The same thing applies to Finland - Russia (GW 2) & Switzerland - Turkey (GW 3).

      Would help many of us picking our 2-3 Italian guys for the first GW! Chiesa/Insigne/Immobile/Belotti/Spinazzola/Bastoni/Bernardeschi 😀

        Great point!

    So who's getting Everton gig now ?
    Big Sam or Tony Pulis ?
    Maybe Frankie L ?

      Nuno?

      They should appoint Sarri tbh. There are a lot of players at Everton who don't have the right mentality / disciplined attitude IMO to get them higher up the league.

      I look at players like Iwobi, Davies, Richarlison, DCL (to some extent), Kean (when he was there) and think why aren't you kicking on to the next level?

      You could see Ancelotti was getting annoyed with the attitude at the end of this season just gone. The loss to Sheff Utd epitomised it.

      Eddie Howe?- perhaps why pulled out of Celtic job

    It’s coming home it’s coming home it’s coming

    Why have we got 4 right backs??

    1. OPTA FPL

      4-4-2: Walker
      3/4/3: Walker CB, James/Trippier WB

      TAA bench

    Best way to spend £12M on 2 midfielders? Struggling! Currently on Mount Chiesa Torres

    I've completely abstained from all Euro fantasy previews, talks, shows everything.

    Just had a few hours just now to put together a team after going over the rules in depth. What am I missing?

    Schmeichel
    R. Rodriguez Blind Kjaer Alioski
    Foden De Jong Soucek
    Lukaku Seferovic Yilmaz (C)
    (4m Torres Dias Jota)

    1. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Foden might not start?

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        I think he's the most nailed on England attacker after Kane tbh.

        1. Freshy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          Best 1 on 1 attacker in the squad IMO

        2. diesel001
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          I think Foden should start. But this is Southgate. A guy who said "If I could have picked five or six right-backs I would have done."

          1. Camzy
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            Risk I'm willing to take. I think an English player is best for captain that day so figure I'll take the punt.

            Captaincy order is Yilmaz > Lukaku > Foden > Torres > Jota

            I quite like it and will ensure I get at least one good captain imo. 2+ attacking returns means I stick.

    2. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      De Jong over Berghuis/Wijnaldum?

      I think you could downgrade Dias/Rodriguez there and upgrade one of the attackers.

      What's chip strategy?

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Limitless on two as with everyone else... It's basically 3 free hits in a row.

        1. Karan14
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          I'm thinking of saving wildcard for the transition between R16 to QFs. That could be tricky to manage with only 3 FTs and 8 teams getting knocked out.

      2. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Fair. Berghuis does look pretty good.

        Could do Dias, Rodriguez, Seferovic, Foden > Lewandowski, Mount, Torres, Fonte

        1. Karan14
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          Yeah that looks much better imo hopefully Pau is nailed. Maybe you could find a way to stretch Lewa to Ronaldo or Kane.

      I have resisted so far.

      Wondering whether to just take a break from Fantasy Football until the new season starts.

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        So have I. Last weeks made me fpl fatigued, but overall it was nice to have a hobby during lockdown. I think I will just enjoy the summer and wait for the new season to start.

        1. Baps hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years

          Or perhaps funny casual approach might be fun 😉

    4. Toddy28
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      A decent team lok

  6. Dr. Rog
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Current draft

    Donnarumma (Hdrakey)
    Bonucci Kjaer Denayer Torres Bednerak
    Hazard Insigne Eriksen Shaqiri Berghuis
    CR7 Arnie Moreno

    1. Christina.
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      nice, prefer Lukaku over Haz though

      1. Dr. Rog
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        they play in different positions.

        its Lukaku or CR7, which isnt an easy choice!

    2. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Is Moreno nailed?

      1. Dr. Rog
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        its Moreno or Weghorst for that slot at the moment. will check out the friendlies. one thing to bear in mind is its not the end of the world to have a 2nd string striker for a 1&3 GW squad, as they may get rotated in for the final fixture if qualified

        1. Karan14
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          What about Wind?

  7. Ibralicious
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Has FPL officially sent out the 2020/21 season review email yet? Remember seeing an email about them preparing to send it out last week or something.

  8. FPLShaqiri
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Haven't played a game like Euro fantasy before but... do the substitutions mean that I should never have a player on my bench who plays before a player in my starting line up?

    1. lugs
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      correct

  9. Karan14
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Choose three out of these:

    A) Eriksen
    B) Wijnaldum
    C) Jota
    D) Bilva
    E) F.Torres

    2 years, 10 months ago

    I have doubts about Youri Tielemans in my team but I don't know which midfielder to pick instead (Thomas Lemar, Mario Pašalić)? Moreover, is my team anygood?

    My team:
    GK: G. Donnarumma.
    DEF: J. Denayer; S. Kjær; D. Blind.
    MID: Van De Beek; G. Bale; F. Torres; D. Berardi.
    FOR: Luuk de Jong; A. Belotti. H. Kane.

    SUBS: J. Pickford; J. Stones; Pepe; Y. Tielemans.

    1. St Pauli Walnuts
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Don't think Belotti is nailed, Immobile likely to start up top.

  11. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Southgate has low key nailed it with that squad

    The general shiteness of the selection has led to an almost complete absence of the usual “England actually have quite a decent team this year”, and “England actually have a great chance this year” bollocks

    Gaz playing 4D chess over here

    Either that or people have finally realised how bad they are

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I haven’t really followed International football much lately, so I have no idea who’s good and who isn’t.

      Who do you think will win it?

      1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        France and Portugal are the two best teams. England probably third in recent years. Holland, Spain, Italy & Germany not so good.

        1. Sgt Frank Drebin
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          Yeah I actually agree, England has a very good team, I would maybe even say that the 2nd best after France. In my opinion they are always behind other good teams in terms of tactical preparedness though.

          1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
            • 3 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            Very true, we’d somehow mess up against any of the mentioned teams.

          2. Toddy28
            • 2 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            FRANCE, BELGIUM.. (ENGLAND. PORTUGAL)
            NETHERLANDS..
            ( GERMANY.. SPAIN)..
            ITALY.
            CROATIA. DENMARK
            TURKEY. WALES SWEDEN that order

    2. One Man
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I think if Kane can have a good tournament England will well. Leaving out the great Lingardino has given the clueless something else to talk about.

  12. jayzico
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Best 5m mid? On Rodri but he's a tad defensive. Can't go any higher, and got Alaba for 5.5 anyway.

    Cheers guys

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Not much at that price- Dennis Zakaria of Switzerland ? Or Ampadu of Wales in same game possibly more attacking?

      1. jayzico
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Ferran Torres rather than that Italian dude. Done. Cheers DD

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I'd be tempted to go for Hojbjerg. I think he plays a more attacking position for Denmark, he's also playing early so if he does nothing you can sub him out.

    Hi Everyone,

    I'd really appreciate some feedback on my Euro 2020 team. I've basically the same chip strategy in mind as many of you on here. Thanks very much for your help!

    Schmeichel

    Kjaer Bonucci Denayer Bednarek

    Foden De. Jong Hazard

    Lukaku Kane Lewandowski

    Bench: Hradecky, Nego, Celik, Holes

    1. lugs
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      bench is far to weak tbh, i'd downgrade Kane and spread the funds since he has arguably the toughest opening game, you could always bring him back in in gw 2 if using the limitless chip, and he could be rested gw 3 if England are already through by then

    2. The Son-dance Kid
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I had Lewa in my euro 16 and wc 18 fantasy teams and he disappointed massively. Poland not the same as bayern. Personally I'd keep Kane and ditch Lewa

      1. Laurent Robert
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Thanks very much lads. Good thoughts!

  14. Party time
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Any fantasy Euro mini league here for me?

      Also, Ancelotti ran away from Everton Lmaooo. Must be a sad news for my buddy, Irbox

    • One Man
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Surely if Ancelotti can only manage 10th with Everton, then surely they will be relegating contenders without him.

      1. Third Eye Vision
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Their points tally would have seen them finish well above 10th in the previous season.

        Lots of work to be done at Everton. It’s clearly a long-term project. We’d hoped Carlo would be the man for the job.

        They’re only 3 or 4 players away from being a decent squad.

        1. 3 A
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          James follow his papa Ancelotti to Real ?

          1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            One player who definitely won’t be going is Richarlison

            Carlo tried to give him the little “he’s one of the most talented players I’ve ever worked with” motivational talk pre-season (as he so often does) ut Richarlison must have just totally taken it the wrong way

            Some of the most wretched performances I’ve ever seen this year - single handedly breaking down attack after attack after attack

            Surely must be up for worst player of the season award....

    • Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Foden, Gnabry or F Torres?

      1. Karan14
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Torres probably the most nailed and better fixtures.

        1. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          I can see any of them scores well when got minutes regardless the fixtures ... Torres most nailed? I thought it's Gnabry, interesting.

          1. Karan14
            • 7 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            Gnabry against France is not a great option imo.

            1. Magic Zico
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 5 Years
              2 years, 10 months ago

              On paper yes, just got a hunch he's going to do something

            2. Toddy28
              • 2 Years
              2 years, 10 months ago

              Totally agree France one of the best defences.. No matter who they playing. Almost guaranteed to have players in final IMO

    • Karan14
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Foden & Berghuis or Mount & Wijnaldum?

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        The former

        1. Karan14
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          A little worried about Foden's mins.

          1. Magic Zico
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 5 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            He's an exciting prospect, that's what I'm going for

      2. Party time
          2 years, 10 months ago

          Alaba imo

        • Toddy28
          • 2 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          Mount and wijnaldum easy

      3. Toddy28
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Any one.. Sun dream team.. My 1st draft. COURTOIS, Vertonghen Alderweild Daneyer.... DE BUYNE.. F. DE JONG BARELLA VERATTI... Mbappe Lukaku Kane

      4. Party time
          2 years, 10 months ago

          Lingard should be in that team ahead of Sterling. Southgate is clueless

          1. Toddy28
            • 2 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            On current form I agree.. But sterling cud be explosive that's probably why.. Class permanent.. Form temporary is where the clueless Southgate is coming from mate IMO

          2. One Man
            • 7 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            Lingard scored 9 in 10 games then didn't score at all in his last 6, as teams found him out. Sterling has consistently scored 10 or more goals in the last 5 league campaigns, Lingard has never scored 10 in one league campaign. Lingard couldn't even get a game for United, sterling is a regular for a much better team. There is a reason why Southgate is manager mate.

            1. Party time
                2 years, 10 months ago

                “It’s not coming home” mate. Sterling is too wasteful to be in the euros. Wasn’t he in the last euros in 2016, How did he perform?? Go & count the number of big chances he missed last season, in a major tournament that will easily screw the team up, it isn’t a league you know.

                I am not saying Sterling shouldn’t be in that squad tho but I’ll definitely pick Lingard over him or ahead of someone else, little details count.

                Let’s just watch how they flop

              • Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
                • 14 Years
                2 years, 10 months ago

                Pretty much agree - although it’s not even that teams “found him out” as much as his insanely streak came to an end

                Lingard is like a (much) shitter version of Sterling, and that’s saying something as Sterling has been getting shiiiiiiite these last few seasons, he’s been on a noticeable downward trend ever since his first season at City (Attacking returns: 35 > 32 > 26 > 19)

                If Man Utd can get 25-30m for Lingard it’ll be the single greatest piece of transfer business in recent history - just hoping his final 6-7 games doesn’t (re)wake people up to he fact that he’s utter gash

                1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
                  • 14 Years

              Couldn't agree less tbh.

            3. Party time
                2 years, 10 months ago

                Y’all as clueless at Southgate tbh.

                100% sure England won’t win it when their coach makes simple mistakes like this

              2 years, 10 months ago

              I understand the captain substitution rule, but I think people should he wary of getting a player in from each match day purely for the purposes of having a captain from each day. 4 strong captain choices I think is enough - 5 is unnecessary if it means compromising your team

                It looks okay, like the bold 1st day cap. No port & cheeses may hurt but what the hey eh.

              OK guys, tell me everywhere I'm going wrong with my current Euros draft:

              K. Schmeichel (T. Krul)
              P. Torres, S Kjaer, J. Denayer, (O. Wijndal, J. Bednarek)
              C. Eriksen, F. Torres, N. Barella, D. Alaba (L. Nego) - I've gone Barella over Chiesa as think he's more likely to start.
              R. Lewandowski, R. Lukaku, C. Ronaldo
