    Lukaku best Captain option tomorrow out of?

    Lukaku
    Eriksen
    Denayer
    Maehle
    Kiaer

      i'm doing eriksen. it's like 51/49 with lukaku for me.

      1. Disco Stu
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah, I keep thinking Eriksen too

        1. RogDog_jimmy
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          This is my rationale from the previous page -

          More avenues to points with CS, Pens, set piece assists and extra points for a goal. Also an assist with a CS equals a goal from Lukaku.
          I'm not assuming 2 returns for anyone - and also playing in Russia has me a little less gung-ho about Lukaku.

          1. Disco Stu
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            2 years, 9 months ago

            Can't argue with any of that logic

            1. RogDog_jimmy
              • 3 Years
              2 years, 9 months ago

              don't mean it will work out!
              sometimes i like to play with vibes, sometimes with logic.
              this is actually kinda both as i kinda like the vibe of Eriksen. Feels like this tournament will be a reminder to some folks that he's pretty rad at football.

    2. ItsJonesy
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Going for Eriksen myself with the likes of Depay and Ronaldo to follow as well.

  2. Cheeto__Bandito

    Very tempting to swap the captain from Insigne but the sensible move is probably just to keep it on him

    1. Disco Stu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      You don't have another player who you think might score more than 8?

      1. Cheeto__Bandito
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        I do have a chance, but with no bonus points your captain basically needs 2 returns if it is Ronaldo/Depay/Lukaku. So yes they all can do that, but it is much safer to take the 8, and even if they do get those couple of returns you are losing out on 2/3 points.

        1. RogDog_jimmy
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          this is my feeling too.
          i'm hoping for 1 return from my captain - ideally it's a goal/cs from a mid.

    2. ItsJonesy
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      No Lukaku, Ronaldo, Depay or others to move to?

      1. Cheeto__Bandito
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        yes but as as explained above odds are not in my favour with no bonus points in this game

        1. ItsJonesy
          • 13 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          Fair enough. I can see the potential for much better returns from a few others and like you said, getting it wrong may only cost you a few points but with the potential to get you a fair bit more from those to play.

  3. Letsgo!
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Change captain from insigne to lukaku? Or should keep?

    1. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      lukaku needs two returns - and even if he does that only gets you 2 points (assuming they're both goals).
      i would stick i think.

      forward captains are tough to me.

    2. ItsJonesy
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I'd change. Who do you have to follow after Lukaku?

      1. Letsgo!
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Depay

        1. ItsJonesy
          • 13 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          Worth a change IMO. I am guessing you would also have players you can go with the two after that also then from the likes of Spain, Portugal etc?

  4. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Left Maehle on the bench by mistake. If I sub him in now, can I sub him out again later if he blanks?

    1. SpaceCadet
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Will be subbing him in for a defender who hasn’t played yet.

    2. Jambot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      You can sub him in and out again but you can’t sub anyone out and back in again if that makes sense. So you need to bring him on for someone who has already played or that’s not an option someone you are happy to sacrifice for Mæhle

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Denayer wjindal allioski are in my playing team. So if I sub in maehle for alioski I won’t be able to reverse this if maehle blanks? Alioski wouldn’t have played yet.

        1. SL8
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          You will be able to so switch maehle in before 2pm Alioski can be brought back in on Sunday

          1. SpaceCadet
            • 10 Years

    Question for anybody doing the Euro.com fantasy football.
    If say your player gets 6 points and you transfer him out for another player yet to play. Do you keep the 6 points?

    1. SpaceCadet
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      No

    2. Eightball
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      No. If you sub a player out you lose those points.

    3. Gleys11
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      If you mean transfer him out from your next Match Day team, then you will keep the points.
      If you mean substitute him out of this Match Day team, then you lose the points.

  6. MidasBoys XI
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    I can see that with subs off the bench but can’t see that rule for transfers

  7. MidasBoys XI
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    I know your allowed 1 free transfer per day so looking to play oki doki with a couple of players via the transfer route

    1. Gleys11
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      You dont get one transfer per game day.
      You have 2 free transfers before the next Matchday starts on the 16th. Those transfers will not affect your points from this weeks players.

    2. Kabayan
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      During group stage, 2 per matchday. Read the rules.

  8. iberiaballer
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Will Tim Krul or Martin Stekelenburg start for the Netherlands vs Ukraine?

    1. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Looking like Krul will start.

  9. money face bandwagon

    How come cakir is on 3 pt? Appearance 2pt but concede 3 goals -1

    1. Silva’s Left Nut
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I’m wondering this as well. Seems like an error

    2. lugs
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      2 appearance pts, 2 extra pts for 6 saves, -1 pt for 2 goals conceded

    3. Gleys11
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Probably save points, but cant see any evidence of that on the actual website.

  10. Scratch
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    I suppose the standard play is to captain Lukaku tomorrow but I am very tempted to go with Eriksen

  11. Silva’s Left Nut
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Spinnaloza captainers, do we switch or hold? I’m leaning towards hold atm

    1. money face bandwagon
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I m holding

    2. pablo discobar
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      A captain score of 9+ x 2 is a hold.

      Anyone suggesting otherwise is forgetting no BP etc.

      1. pablo discobar
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Your saying otherwise a replacement is going to get 3 returns. Thats a bold and probably unnecessary gamble at this stage.

    3. Scratch
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      7 would be a dilemma but 9 is a hold especially when there's no obvious replacement captain expected to fill his boots.

    Hello guys, Cini here..new to the community. nThought, i'd say hello!
    For the Euro2020 fantasy, I had Spinazola and Barella, left my captain on Barella, i'm moving it it Lukaku now

    1. lugs
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      luckily a captain blank in this game is not the end of the world, i doubt an Italy player will end up being be the highest scoring player this gw anyway, and most of the game will cap Lukaku later too, not me though 🙂

      1. Cini talks fpl
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah I can imagine everyone would be going for the big hitters as Captain...Lukaku, Kane and Ronaldo. As for me I just need any of my captain choices to hit double digits then I'm good

  13. I Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Insigne (c) stick or twist? 8 feels right on the borderline. 7 I'd definitely change and 9 I'd definitely hold. 8 I'm definitely not sure.

    1. I Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Other options are Lukaku, Depay, Torres and Ronaldo.

      1. Sanchit
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        I would base that decision on how confident you are on the last captain. (Ronaldo for me)
        If you are confident on him, then twisting makes sense. Yes I know Lukaku Depay Torres would have to get more than one return to outscore Insigne, but I'm willing to take the risk that one of those 4 does get a 9+ outing

    2. Cini talks fpl
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I'd say keep insigne as Captain not bad

  14. Dr. Rog

    LL2 first draft

    Donna Lloris
    Florenzi Fernandes Zinc Stones Hernandez
    Golovin Bale1 Yarm2 Forsberg Grealish
    Depay Kane3 Mbappe4

    1. I Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Didn't Florenzi go off injured? Even if he's fit Spinazzola is so attacking.

      1. Dr. Rog
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        watching the game I though Florenzi was better, but yes if injured just go for the other one. this is pure fantasy football

        1. I Member
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          Fair enough. Can see Florenzi getting attacking returns as well.

            • 14 Years

            I watched this guy before the Italy game from TIFO football IRL. He called Italy's tactics spot on.

            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H58UgVjKnfU

            Florenzi tucks in with the centre backs and Spinazzola bombs forward.
            Crucial to Italy's system.

        2. Paqueta Rice
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          You watched that game and thought Florenzi was better than Spinazzola?

          • 6 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          Did we watch the same game? In the first half (when Florenzi was in the pitch) all Italy game went through Spinazzola

          1. Cini talks fpl
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 2 Years
            2 years, 9 months ago

            Spinazzola was everywhere!! proper talent that

              And playing LB with right leg his stronger really unique

    2. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      i will probably switch the england france GK -DEF around because my strat is to compile the bench to be

      3 portugal
      3 france
      3 germany

      for each round. vs Hun is just a gift and you want your subs to be good for it.

    3. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      that team looks nice - interested to see how form changes it

      3 vs Scot, Hun
      2 vs Mcd, Fin, Swiss
      1 vs Tur, Slov, Aus

      This is the round where there will be big scores i reckon

  15. bso

    Looks like Berardi got the job done and will keep his place. Happy with this.

    1. I Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      As a Juve fan I love our boy Chiesa but Berardi is a good player and deserves to keep his place.

    2. SpaceCadet
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Saw him limp out of the game. Hope he’s fine.

      1. I Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Looked like cramp to me but thankfully with Italy we get the lineup before the deadline.

        1. Jarnathan
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          This isn't correct. The first match of the 2nd gameweek is Turkey vs Wales

      2. bso
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        I saw that. Fingers crossed...injury did not look too lethal.

  16. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Immobile cap stick or twist. Options would be lukaku > depay > Torres

    1. I Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      9 is a stick for me.

    2. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I captained Insigne and I am sticking. Lukaku/Depay is tempting though. Only thing is if you switch you can't go back. Could get buyers remorse.

      Back of my mind I feel that Ukraine and Russia will do OK against Belgium and Holland respectively. Lukaku/Depay would need to get more than a goal plus assist, in your case.

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Cheers. Might do the boring but sensible thing and stick.

    3. Cini talks fpl

      Stick Stick Stick like a post-it note

  17. Letsgo!
    • 7 Years

    Guys, if for eg i sub torres out now for alaba. and if alaba score 2 pts and i dont like it i can switch torres back ?

    1. Gleys11
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Good question. Am wondering the same.
      Obviously if you take out someone who has already played they cant go back in again, but seems likely that someone who hasnt played yet could be put back in. But im not 100% sure.

    2. Cruyff's Eleven
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Seems like you can sub out players which have played already, as long as you sub in a player which hasn't.

      In your case, the answer would be Yes.

    3. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Yes, you can.

      1. Letsgo!
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        So basically i can keep sub in and out the players unlimited nums of time as long as he havent play?

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          Yes (as long as your starter has not got a red card)

          1. Gleys11
            • 3 Years
            2 years, 9 months ago

            Thanks for the clarification.
            It seemed like that was likely, just wasnt 100% sure.
            Here’s hoping for no red cards 🙂

  18. Gleys11
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Lots of talk about captain points.
    What about the keeper?
    Would you keep Cakir 3 points? Or change to Schmeichel?

    1. Letsgo!
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Surely change

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Twist

    3. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Have to change that

    4. Gleys11
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Thanks for your comments.
      Would seem to make sense.
      And if Denmark do concede, only gonna be 1 or 2 points worse off. And would be gutted if he saved a penalty

      1. Letsgo!
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        2-0 denmark haha

    5. Cini talks fpl
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Yeah you can change, if you fill Schmeichel would have 6 points. very possible, I'll switch

  19. FPL Alaska
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Keep Insigna (C) or change to Lukaku?

    After Lukaku would have: Depay, Torres and Ronaldo as other Captain options.

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Twist since you have Ronaldo.

  20. Holmes
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Had the choice of either picking Cancelo and P. Torres or Spinazzola and Robertson.

    Guess I'll regret this decision 😀

  21. Simon69
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Stick with Insigne captain (16 points) or give armband to Eriksen or Lukaku tomorrow?

    1. Party time
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Switch to Eriksen(C)

    2. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      People sticking with Insigne captain are the type of people that sleep with a nightlamp on...

      1. Simon69
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        That answers my question then lol

      2. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Nah man, I don't like nightlamp. Prefer complete blackout...

    3. Simon69
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Can I change my captain more than once on a day? ie Can I change to Eriksen tomorrow and Lukaku later on?

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        One per calendar day only, so Eriksen to Lukaku won’t work. Lukaku to Depay to Torres to Ronaldo works though.

      2. bso
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        No

      3. korbendallas82
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Also, Captain change and subs you want done, must be done before first game of the day kick off.

        “After all matches on a single day have finished and before the next matches within that matchday kick off, you can:
        -Change your captain to another player from your squad whose team are yet to play.

        - Sub out a maximum of four players (unless they've been sent off), and replace them with any of your substitutes whose teams are yet to play within the matchday”

        I was hoping i could wait til after 20.00 today to change captain to Lukaku. He plays at 21.00 ( Line ups etc.)

    4. Weeb Kakashi
      • 8 Years

      If Italy get a comfortable win in MD2 then can see Insigne and Berardi benched in MD3.

      1. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        WC to the rescue 😉

      2. EmreCan Hustle

        I am playing my LL in MD3. Loads of easy fixtures to target there.

          Have you considered that loads of top teams might have qualified by then thereby resting their big hitters?

      So Insigne(C) gave me 16 points.

      Any of the following worth twisting?

      A) Eriksen
      B) Depay
      C) Schick
      D) Ronaldo

      If a forward scores a brace, it's 20 points. Not a whole lot more than 16.
      Which leaves Eriksen. Can he score more?
      Would love to hear opinions.

      Thanks.

        I'd twist. I fancy at least one of Eriksen, Depay or Ronaldo to score one. So, worst case scenrio you lose 1/2 points.

          I moved it from Insigne to Eriksen (could chose Lukaku too). But going with Eriksen. If he blanks I’ll move it to Depay or Kane next day.

          I think Depay can score a brace or hattrick

        Dacision made. Twisting Insigne to Lukaku.
        Have Depay, Torres and Ronaldo after that. I'd consider myself extremely unlucky if all of them don't even get one return.
        So, if they get 6/7, I lose 1/2 points worst case scenario. If they bang, there is more to gain.
        It's a small game. 8 points is taking the risk over imo.

            Only 10 pts will make me stick but Ronaldo vs hungary is tempting

          Morning folks. Have C on Berardi. Change to Lukaku today?

              Cool. When can I change? Says I'll lose bonus points...

                See the post i answred above two posts.

                The bonus points you lose is the captain points. if you have berardi, you lose the 6 extra points captain x 2 gave you. Berardi go back to having normal score.

                just want to know, can we change the captain while the game still in progress? I wanted to change to Immobile last night after he had scored.

                  Nope, that would be too easy 😀
