      Looking at loading up on players from Italy, Belgium, Spain, Germany & Netherlands !

  2. Gazpilicueta

    Anyone know what time the euro fantasy update finishes?

    1. Gazpilicueta
      • 9 Years

      Anyone?

    2. RogDog_jimmy

      usually takes an hour. guess it's a bit slow today.

    KDB (c) stick or twist?
    Kane
    Mbappe

    1. schlupptheweek
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Probably stick, Kane and Mbappe would have to get 2 goals + contribution to do any damage. France have 3 world class forwards which often means the goals are more likely to be share. Kane is up against Scotland who are good on paper but he would have to improve a lot to get 2 + goals/assists.

      1. schlupptheweek

        *which is good on paper

      2 attacking returns, stick.

    Are more price rises expected tonight?

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

      There were price changes??

      1. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Yes- for example Hradecky now 4.2. Meunier up to 5.6

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

    Pick 3 from these for LL MD3 squad. Lukaku and Depay are risks right?

    A) Lukaku
    B) Depay
    C) Yarmochuk
    D) Morata
    E) Muller

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

      Yeah Lukaku and Depay are risks.

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

        They would be annoyed at missing the easiest game but it’s not up to them I guess

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

          Yeah I thought so too.

          But in WC'18, Belgium rested everyone in the last game of the groups including Lukaku who had 4 goals in his first 2 games.

    Anyone care to offer their MD2 situation so far?

    60 here with 4 to play

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

      19 only with 8 to play

    2. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      46 with 5 to play including Kane (C) or Mbappé (C) to resurrect my MD2!

    3. HollywoodXI

      67 with 5 to play. Happy days!

        1. HollywoodXI
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          Took some risks on LL and they all paid off. KDB, Hazard, Dumphries and Yarmo (c) was pretty epic today.

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

      41 with 6 (3 ENG+3FRA)

    5. dunas_dog

      56 with 6 to play

    6. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years

      57 with 5 to go. New captain to come in too (replacing Zinchenknoooooo)

    7. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      40 and 4 to play. Will be 35 after I take 3 from the bench and captain Ronaldo.

    8. Babit1967

    11. Annie

  7. More Cowbell
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Do we think KDB will get minutes in MD3? Can’t decide whether he needs game time to increase fitness or recovery so he’s fresh for the QF?

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      He might but I can't see why they'd risk him in a game they don't need a result from. Just back from injury and looked good today.

  8. diesel001
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    So who do you think will do well tomorrow?

    Soucek with a cheeky goal from a set piece? Grealish, Kane?

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

      Kane. I believe!

    2. More Cowbell
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      The Yorkshire Pirlo

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

    Ok first shot at WC MD3

    Bushcan (Aut), Livakovic (Sco)
    Spinnazola (Wal), Meunier (Fin), P.Torres (Svk), Dumfires (Mkd), Gosens (Hun)
    Yarmolenko (Aut), Berardi (Wal), Locatelli (Wal), KDB (Fin), Havertz (Hun)
    Lukaku (Fin), Yaremchuk (Aut), Rebic (Sco)

    Italian players we'll know before deadline.
    Thinking better defenders are less likely rotation risks.
    Bit of overload on Ukraine...not sure I like double attack on them.

    Captains are;
    Spinna (1)
    KDB/Lukaku (2)
    Rebic (3)
    Havertz (4)

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

      I think R. Rodriguez is the only absolute nailed-on certainty in my team.

      Switzerland have it all to play for vs Turkey. Turkey defenders also look extremely error prone (OG and pen conceded already) so a clean sheet and penalty goal for Rodriguez looks on the cards. I'll probably double on Swiss defense actually.

      I'm gonna have 3 Italy (based on team sheets) and also Hazard.

      I'm on Limitless so budget doesn't matter so much. Will cover myself as best as possible leaving 3 big-hitting Germans to mop up (Gosens, Gnabry, Muller)

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

        I only saw the Swiss when they played Italy and no one stuck out - was he that good against Wales?

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

          Not really.

          But the Swiss can qualify with a win vs a Turkey team who have nothing to play for and who were abject.

          It's a combination of motivation and good fixture. R. Rodriguez also a defender on pens.

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

            Oh that's an interesting way to think of it.
            Cheers.

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

      Lukaku may get rested can’t see Martinez risking his star player in a dead rubber game

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

        Yes golden boot is a factor but surely fitness comes first

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

          I'm torn on it - he's also kind of a place-holder for any premium.
          Him and KDB both - but we saw what can happen in a half today.
          At least they're early that if they don't play I can sub them out.

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

            I like KDB a lot this week. Think he starts and plays 60 probably to get some match rhythm and that is enough to get a couple returns.

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

              Think I'd be happy with that for sure!
              Hoping one of the Spanish attackers does something to give me confidence to bring them in for the last game. Or even a German striker (Werner...shudder...)

    3. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Weghorst (Ned)?

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

        lol just replied to you about Weghorst - I'm avoiding NED I think .

  10. JJeyy
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Wish FPL adopted this no bonus points system, makes variance swings feel not as bad such as keepers making pen saves and not getting a free three points on top. They won’t though as the masses love free points.

  11. CoracAld2831
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Questions for tomorrow:

    Would you change Donnarumma (6 pts.) to Pickford (v SCO)?

    Will he start?

    Also I'm concerned that ENG v SCO will be a goal mania due to a friendly rivalry set up and both nations will want bragging rights as an added bonus to points. Which means picking Pickford might not be a good idea, when you already have a clean sheet earned goalie...

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

      what's the upside - that he gets a bunch of saves? a penalty save?
      If he saves 5 shots on target you get only 1 extra point still.

      I think you take the 6 and don't stress.

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

      Definitely not

    3. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      No way

    4. Utopsis
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      God no

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

    Can anyone explain the price changes? Should I have aready activated my wildcard? Will there be more?

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

      They came into effect as soon as MD3 was active - no idea if there will be more before the next MD. They're based at least partly on performance so in essence they could change players who played today.

      I just activated my WC as I had 0.1 itb and didn't want to be priced out just in case KDB or Spinna went up.

      No one has dropped price so not sure if ditching players early has any value.

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

        Thanks that helps. Really bad there’s no clear in game rules on this

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

    Update complete - C moves on...

    I have Foden, Sterling & Chillwell for tomorrow...thinking of gambling on Chillwell (c)

    Have Mbappe & Griezeman to come off the bench on final day.

  14. Warby84
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    WC Draft

    Donnarumma Hradecky
    Spinnazola Alba P.Torres/Gosens Hummels
    De Bruyne Berardi Alaba Wijnaldum/Gnabry
    Weghorst Yaremchuk Lukaku(?)

    1. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Might lose Lukaku, not sure yet..

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

      Looks solid.
      I hope one of the Germans impresses in their next game - kinda tough against France to figure out who might be good for returns.

      I assume the thought with Weghorst is he's less important than Depay and so will start - I'm not sure I buy that. Malen and de Jong could start/get time instead. So hard to know.

      1. Warby84
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Thanks for your input… Alba might become Rodriguez I think.. Tough WC week, not sure Lukaku will play so will lose 0.1 but could easily upgrade mdf.. I could go Rebic in bring in a big hitting mdf..

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

          agree it's hard.
          my thinking is 2-3 won't play, that's just how it is.
          trying not to out-think and go for worse players just in case too much. hence starting KDB & Lukaku.

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

      Don't like Weghorst at all. Would still pick a rotation goalie pair.

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

        Actually Hradecky against Belgium is kinda wild. Wouldn't do that at all. Even b-Belgium team is stacked.

        1. Warby84
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          Agree but I have 0.2 gain on him. Maybe go for a 4.5 and downgrade a defender?

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

            don't think you lose the value if you sell - not like in fpl.

            i made 0.6 overall on my MD1 team and so my budget for WC was 100.6.

      2. Warby84
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Who will play up top for Holland vs Macedonia??

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

          Luuk De Jong? I have no idea. Guessing game.

          1. Warby84
            • 8 Years
            2 years, 9 months ago

            Yeah I would love to target the Dutch striker, but is a lottery, think I might take a risk on with LDJ or Weghorst, who would you put up top MD3 Arnie/Rebic are in my thoughts too!!

  15. FFSbet.com
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    If teams end up with same points its H2H first right?

    1. dark91
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      No GD

  16. Wensink
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Is it crazy to hold the WC until the round of 16 and hope to patch together a full XI for MD 3 using the two FTs?

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

      nope! i wish i could have but would have needed too much surgery.

    2. azz007
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Rd16 unlimited

      Md3 or Qf for wc

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

        These rules are nuts.

        Worth holding the WC to the QF or better to use it for MD 3?

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

          I thought you meant QFs.
          I think having a WC for QFs will be a powerful chip - but also if you lose 20-30 points in MD3 it's not worth it probably...

    3. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      No if you can get decent team for MD3 with 2 frees I would go for that- I would rather have kept WC until after round of 16 but no option given team

    4. Utopsis
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Exactly what I'm doing. MD3 is a lottery with many teams through and no one can predict starting XIs.

      Will save WC for QF onwards, allowing me to be v. brave in my last 16 team selection without worrying about having to spread the risk due to potential eliminations.

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

        hope it works out for ya! could be a real good move.

        1. Utopsis
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          Thanks mate - will have to make those 2FTs count!

  17. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Thoughts on this WC. Gambling a bit in strikers but good bench as back up? Clearly depends on Italy team reveal pre deadline

    Bushchan
    Spinazzola Dumfries Meunier
    Grealish KDB Yarmolenko Chiesa
    Belotti Batshuayi Yaremchuk

    Simón Gosens P Torres Gnabry

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

      Belotti is an interesting idea - would love a cheaper Italian striker starting.
      Looks fun!

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

    What's decent score atm? Have 55 (Yarmo C) with Sterling Olmo Mbappe Pogba Hernandez to go

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

      that seems decent to me.

      i'm on 53 (no cap) with Foden, Sterling, Chillwell(c1), Mbappe(c2) & Griezemann

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

        Good score with no cap

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

          yeah i'm scared about Chillwell(c) being too tricky by half. Sterling seems safer.

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

      Seems pretty good with who you have left. I have 62 with Hernandez Foden Perisic and Greizmann left. Think yours will outdo that.

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

        Yarmolenko cap

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

          what a great result that was.

  19. Subzero (-4)
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Stick or twist on immobile (7)?

    Sterling (tomorrow)
    Mbappe (Saturday)

    ???

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Twist. Mbappe good option final day

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

      i might twist on that too.
      good options.

      (note i haven't got a captain with more than 6 points all euros...and ended up on 3 pts in MD1)

  20. Avery

    Evening all!! How’s this looking for a first WC Draft MD3???? Thoughts appreciated!!!

    Stekelenburg
    P.Torres Meunier Dumfries Rodriguez
    Grealish Yarmolenko Berardi KDB
    Yaremchuk Miranchuk
    Simon Gnabry Müller Gosens

    Cheers!!

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

      pretty interesting - Grealish could be a great move.
      second person to mention Rodriguez - I'm thinking he might be a nice twist from Spinna if he's benched.

      1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah me too mate I think if England win tomorrow which they should it would almost certainly guarantee that Grealish would start against CZECH’s, Rodriguez is interesting me I think I saw someone write that he’s on penalties so if that’s the case he’s a good shout for sure, and Turkey have been poor and nothing to play for and the Swiss could have a chance if they win!!

    A 54 point gap is pretty much game over isn't it... even at this early stage? I can't even be mad, this guy in my league has smashed it and is 197 overall.

    Playing with a wildcard draft for MD3 and my highest owned player in KDB at 6%. Just gonna yolo it with a differential squad.

      197! WOWSERS.

      Don’t give up yet. I’m 45 points clear in my league but I’m not going to get complacent. If he can beat you by 54 points in 2 rounds then you can do the same.

        This attitude is the key

    People who have used their limitless and planning to use WC in MD3, how are you going to tackle the knockout stages?

    1. TKC07
      • 4 Years

      Most of knockout games are going to be close matches QF onwards.

      Hauls are less likely when compared to some of these easy group games. So might not be loosing much point difference even if navigating with free transfers..

      aim for players mainly favorites, while trying to stay to 2 from a team max.
      i hope there will be a few obvious teams to load up on (france/italy for example)

      1. smix
        • 8 Years

        France, Italy, Belgium looking like good ones to load up on - That’s almost 9 players done right there

      Load up on the teams with the easiest fixtures. Likely going to be 3x FRA, ITA, BEL, then spread out the risk with other teams and navigate with free transfers.

      Upside on the group stage made it a pretty easy decision for me to go for LL2, WC3 strategy.

    Alba or Hernandez?

      • 8 Years

      Hernandez

  25. Simon69
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Isak or Sterling for (c) tomorrow? I'm swaying towards Isak with Mbappe as an option for Saturday.

    How’s this looking for MD3. FT’s used up. Should I WC instead ?

    Simon Hradecky
    P.Torres Hinteregger Maehle Rodriguez Denayer
    Berardi Alaba Yazici Gnabry FTorres
    Ronaldo Depay Lukaku

    1. Simon69
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      2 years, 9 months ago

      Difficult one I honestly have no idea. Probably best to wait until this matchday plays out before you decide because teams who are already through will likely play a weakened side for MD3.

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

        They will rotate... Probably a better way of wording it!

  27. smix
    • 8 Years

    Chances of Alba starting against Poland ?

  28. bso

    Kane or Sterling for captain?

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

      Sterling over Kane for me.

      What about Sterling, Foden, or Chillwell?

    2. Soto Ayam
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Sterlz

  29. ragsyboys
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Any chance of Dumfries and Meunier playing the next game ? I feel they will be rotated now that they have won both matches

  30. The Polymath
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    Best replacement for Ericksen?

    Already have Insigne, Torres, M, Llorente and Jota.

    1. Alcapaul
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Gnabry if you can find the extra .5. Havertz if not

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

      I like that Yarmolenko fella.

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

      Locatelli/Berardi are great value into the Italian midfield. Even with Insigne.
