Discussion 2024 UEFA EURO 2024 FANTASY: Starts Sat June 15th 5:00am

[Under The Dome]

Well done UTD. What a day scoring wise... Should have gone with more attacking options from NED.

I reckon you'll be a chance for the lead gauging on the teams that were ranked at the top.

Thanks!

Hopefully when I log back in later today we are at the top
I was 30 down on the top rank though so I can see him still ahead with 120+

Baumgartner was so close to scoring right at the death.

 

[Under The Dome]

153* Gakpo

4-3-3
Simon 2
Raum(E) 12, Kimmich 12, Hernandez 13, Dumfries 12
Baumgartner 7, Ruiz 23, Musiala 17
Morata 2, Mbappe 5, Gakpo 24x2

Trades will be interesting in the next round, currently have 5 eliminated spots with 3 of those in the midfield this week.
Formation will be interesting now that it's Germany vs Spain and Portugal vs France.

 

[Miller is a Steele]

152 Musiala
Gakpo 24, Ruiz 23, Musiala VC 17x2, Bellingham 14, Kane 12, Kimmich 12, Van Dijk 12, Kante 7, KDB 6, Carvajal 6, Simon 2.

Open

Up 31 spots from 47th to 16th.

 

[tso]

123
UP 14 POS 114

 

[Herbie66]

138 Mbappe

Let downs were Mbappe , Morata & Bastoni (covering Mittelstadt's DNP)

Only ended up using 5 trades for the round

Nice to get a decent score for a change

Up 109 spots to 92nd

Only my 2 Italian players don't advance

Now to work out how to approach the QF's

 

[Old Big 'Ead]

131 Musiala

Reasonably happy. Had Gakpo until Kane scored in ET, then had to get a donut to bring him on the field, and replaced Gakpo over Mbappe. Sliding doors... extra 19 points!

Down 1 spot to 5th. UTD is now sitting 2nd.

A little surprised, but I suppose 131 is below par after the Netherlands game. Was above par, but then slipped.

Have 4 players not in the next round.

153* Gakpo

4-3-3
Simon 2
Raum(E) 12, Kimmich 12, Hernandez 13, Dumfries 12
Baumgartner 7, Ruiz 23, Musiala 17
Morata 2, Mbappe 5, Gakpo 24x2

Trades will be interesting in the next round, currently have 5 eliminated spots with 3 of those in the midfield this week.
Formation will be interesting now that it's Germany vs Spain and Portugal vs France.

Up to second and 10 points off the leader. They have a really nice selection of players already advanced.

 

[Herbie66]

Might set-up 4-4-2 and try this looking at bench scores again

/ Simon
.
Musiala / Rodri
/ Morata

Better set the alarm and see if Mittelstadt actually starts this game

Then currently have 3 French & 3 Portugese for the next game

 

[Herbie66]

France (so far)

defeated Austria 1-0 (own goal)
drew Netherlands 0-0
drew Poland 1-1 (Mbappe penalty)
defeated Belgium 1-0 (own goal)

Doing well defensively but sure need a attacking boost

I guess all you need to do is score more than the opposition no matter how they come

 

[Herbie66]

Robitinho predicting

Spain 2 Germany 1
Portugal 1 France 2
England 1 Switzerland 0
Netherlands 2 Turkey 1

 

[Manikato1]

England to lose to Switzerland on penalties because England and Agony have an almost magnetic attraction.

 

[Herbie66]

England to lose to Switzerland on penalties because England and Agony have an almost magnetic attraction.

Had to have a look

10 penalty shootouts at World Cup , Euro & Nations Cup

3 successful

Euro 96 v Spain
WC 2018 v Colombia
Nations 2019 v Switzerland

 

[Under The Dome]

Not sure if I should keep Morata as a pod or go for Kane to cover

[Under The Dome]

Twitter blowing up with hate on Kroos after two hard challenges and no cards.

Pedri subbed off due to one

 

[tso]

Olmo (Yamal) 1-0 ESP

 

[tso]

Gundogan subbed before 60th.

 

[Under The Dome]

Took a stab at Raum on field as the sole owner.

It didn't work out with a card and an early sub

 

[Old Big 'Ead]

Running with 3 Spanish defenders, including Simon. Hope Spain don't concede.
