Giroud. Because I enjoy repeating my mistakes. I expect I'll be on Guerreiro by the end of the matchday.

Giroud
Konoplyanka/Muller/Lewandowski
Fabregas or Perisic
Mario
A Giroud hat-trick would be nice, as picking a captain from day 2 looks a tough call!

Re: Euro Fantasy 16 - Captain Poll Matchday 2
Not sure if it's madness or genius, but I'm veering towards sticking the armband on Konoplyanka rather than Muller or Lewa,,

of course had I done in time to Captain Payet, I'd have now stuck with his last minute 8p...MoSe wrote:15> missed the deadline! (would've been Payet)

17> hhmmm,,, Iniesta?

instead I still must fish for a decent one to double
today I have Kane (WAL) in the first match, then Neuer, Hummels, Müller (POL) in the evening match
Germans kept CS vs UKR, but they didn't actually look watertight
True, Hummels should be back, I assume he'll play giving a bit more solidity to the backline (Boateng had saved the day alone vs Ukr), alas Germany lineups can't be checked before the deadline.
Both Kane and Müller blanked their 1st match, but could be explosive anytime, albeit Poles are no pushovers. Maybe I'd figure with these fixtures Müller could score higher, but also likelier to blank...
Poland had 4 SOT vs NIR, but only scored 1 goal, and German defence "should" be better than NIR one, so Neuer might get 7p again...
Hummels showed in WC2014 that he's a defender with attacking potential, so I might punt on him to pile on a CS AND a possible goal, to max score to 12p,
He'd suffer the same points loss as Neuer in case of goals conceded, it's Saves vs Atk potential between them.
The two strikers would require more than a brace to attain 12p, i.e. Germany or England should score three and Kane/Müller be involved in all of them...
What's more likely, Hummels to score one, or the favourite teams to score 3 with their main strikers always involved?..
Otherwise, I shouldn't punt high, and content to bank on a likelier 6p from a fwd
Really undecided, 6 hrs to decide

Think I'm set on going a bit outside the box. Konoplyanka today, and then if that fails Perisic tomorrow.

Re: Euro Fantasy 16 - Captain Poll Matchday 2
Captained Giroud instead of Payet (who I captained last time).
Now on Muller but tempted to do Kroos instead.
Payet looked good in the first match I doubted if he could do it again - but he did.
Muller looked crap in the first round, Kroos looked very good - do I gamble on Muller turning up or on Kroos keeping his form?

Re: Euro Fantasy 16 - Captain Poll Matchday 2
Muller will have to turn up imho, problem is: vs Pol, or later vs Nir?
I'm leaning a bit towards Kane over Muller atm

Re: Euro Fantasy 16 - Captain Poll Matchday 2
I've stuck the armband on Ramos. I may regret not going with an attacking player like Rakitić or Morata. Then again, I may regret going WITH an attacking player like Rakitić or Morata. Certainly Giroud and Özil have been big letdowns this round, while the likes of Neuer and Koscielny have done well for me.
I feel that Ramos is a good a choice as any. Decent chance of a clean sheet and a big attacking threat too. He was very close to scoring on a couple of occasions against the Czechs, and very close to grabbing an assist a couple of times too.
It really does seem to be the time to back defenders. Games are still quite cagey and lots of teams are keeping clean sheets. Spain are usually very tight at the back, and with 3 points already in the bag they'll feel no need to go hell-for-leather against the Turks. I'm sure they'll play the same type of patient, controlled game they always do, retaining possession effeciently and restricting Turkey's scoring chances.
Jinxed it, haven't I?

15> Payet, NOT ouch, missed the deadline!
16> Kane
17> Iniesta? options: Candreva, Bonucci, Giaccherini, Rosický
18> fall-back: Guerreiro (Gomes, Patricio)
Italy might not keep up the same adrenaline which helped us perform well vs Belgium, it might be likely that we concede one to Ibra, so Azzurri defenders might not be Capt 1st choice now. Of course, Giaccherini is not an actual defender, has attacking threat and he's on fire, but can he repeat b2b?
Candreva can score, good shot, gets in the box, kicks corners from the right, some free-kicks and eventually penalties too...
Of course the team need to score for him to be involved, I rate Sweden a poor team but their defence is not butter, so I figure we might score one, at most two
I foresee 1-1
I guess Spain scoring chance is a bit higher than Italy today, Iniesta is their best player (ok, followed by Silva, Ramos & maybe Cesc), their strikers are not goal magnets (indeed they scored with a defender), so I figure it's likely for Andrés to be involved if not to score himself.
Rosický ended in my team only because I didn't know which other 6.0 mid pick at last second, and I had full set already of Fra, Ger, Ita, Por
I'm debated, but I'd still give some edge to Iniesta over Candreva...
or is it just wishful thinking

To get 6 points Iniesta needs to get an assist.
To get better he needs to get at least a goal.
I also have Pique who is also a goal threat. . So do I change Iniesta to Pique ?
Hmmm

After Giroud and Ozil fails, I'm on Juanfran today over Iniesta. I'd take a cleanie right now with any attacking points a bonus. I have C Ron as backup for tomorrow but I'm not sure if he'll be focused on whining instead of scoring.

ended to gamble on Giaccherini to repeat his CS+involvement in a goal
although i don't think there's high chances for it, I decided to take a punt fingers:

Just doesn't seem right on a defender, unless its a defender playing in midfield but I bottled that one!

I'll stick with Giack 6p now
Of course I won't mind an Iniesta haul proving my pick wrong
too bad Parolo crossbar denied me 6p (Giac's assist doubled)
