The Dutch gambit failed. Picked four of them for my team. They all played, got a grand total of 0 points from them and now I have a considerable hole to fill.

I only had one Dutchman and that was bloody de Ligt getting me minus points. The Belgians have redeemed my team a bit though.

Very low scoring day. A couple of unexpected results. The top remains very close.

Just managed to scrape a starting 10 together (much like my Saturday team, really) after foolishly investing heavily in Dutch and French players. Would be in a much better position if I hadn't used some spare cash to 'upgrade' my two Danish defenders to French.

Slightly in shock that I just bought Morata - and made him captain.

[CG31]

Took an 8 point hit, but now only have the Swedish keeper that’s been knocked out.

Risking De Bruyne as well, before we find out team news tomorrow

Gobsmacked I’m in the lead in the predictor still … plenty of time left to crash and burn … I’m also clear of the bottom on the other one … so I’m happy with that 🙂

Who have you got for the final then, oh wise one? My mate has got Italy and England!

I had a Belgium France final … I’ve just made some lucky guesses around scores in random matches that’s given me a decent collection of points although it’s all to play for now with @Padgey taking a decent lead into the semis … I might have to take a bit of a gamble to claw back some of the deficit …

In my final prediction for the whole tournament done a couple of days before it started I had Italy - Portugal and England - Denmark semi finals. Very proud of myself on that front, albeit had Spain going out in the RO16 to Scotland

It's tight at the top, my booster helped me out in the last round after a couple of poor predictions in the first 2 quarter finals.

That’s me mate, pretty chuffed with my performance in both to be honest. For better or worse before the tournament I also had Italy beating England in the final

Good stuff nice 1 … I had Italy to win 3-1 in predictor but didn’t predict them to make the final if that makes sense 😂

[CG31]

Cheers mate, found this fantasy much easier than the PL one. But yh I had 1-0 England and Maguire for yesterday, you don’t think about predicting draws really tho do you

Cheers @crazyfool1, I thought I might've lost top spot in the predictor in the last 3 games but just held on.  Enjoyed both games so a big thanks to @squirrelarmy

[Homer]

Absolutely gutted at the time, but now delighted as found out it was Bonucci who scored, giving me a share of fifth place.

[Padjeq]

Pleased with coming third! I only started watching football a month ago. Also I won £180 betting on Italy to win prior to the tournament

[funkychick2007]

Thanks @squirrelarmy for setting it up!! Was good fun even though i had no clue what i was doing!!! Gave me a bit of blagging knowledge about football with the kids I work with! 

[Andre91]

I made a team and didn’t look at it again 😂

I haven’t seen any links pop up, I’m happy to make one, also found a website that does a Championship and a European Super League (basically all the players in the top teams of the top 5 leagues amalgamated into one) fantasy game if anyone’s interested

Can’t remember who set last season’s up but if they just renew it everyone gets entered automatically.
