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

[Herbie66]

Hernandez , Maignon & Rodri on the bench didn't work out

Leaves me 3/23

Will need to take 1 of Hernandez or Rodri though if I decide to take Mbappe's VC score

So 4/38

Think I will just end up with the following remaining :-

Pickford
Guehi , VVD
Bellingham , Rice , Simons
Gakpo

3 trades for the round unused

3 Spanish to go through + 3 Dutch/4 England so should get a playing XI for the final.

5/35
Yamal E 13, Mbappe VC 11, Ruiz 4, Hernandez 4, Cucurella 3.

Not taking Mbappe’s VC and not taking any of Maignan (1), Navas (0), or Kante (3) off the bench.

In hindsight I probably should’ve set up as a 3-4-3 instead of a 4-4-2. Thought this game would be low scoring and a decent chance at someone getting a clean sheet so I went big at the back. 3 goals in the first 25 minutes . Now I have to trade Gakpo to a DNP to take Yamal’s score.

 

[Manikato1]

Interesting. I kept the Georgian keeper Luka on field using him as the C when needed and looped the French goalie. Now Maignan scored poorly I was going to trade Luka out but it won't allow it. The option to make him C still comes up but the T for transfer does not. Annoying.

 

[Manikato1]

Scratch the above. Must have hit the trade limit for this round. Got deceived by the fact that I could get the T on Gakpo but assuming that is only because I just traded him in it gives me the option to trade him out.

 

[Herbie66]

Just saw Yamal's goal

Wow

 

[Under The Dome]

Yamal went down a point

Stupid game for penalties

Give stupid ones and don't give clear handballs

Sucks it should be going to ET after that horrible early call

60 Gakpo

Could've been +12 if I took Mbappe and Kounde.
Someone could take over with a Mbappe/Olmo/Simons/Kane (C) and avoided the Netherlands defence.

You have a big enough cushion to still be in first place.

62 Foden

Captained Simons last game for a fail as a POD, but changed to Foden this time 🤦‍♂️If only...

68 Gakpo

21 points ahead of 3rd.
