HUGE night for me mate!

I’m looking forward to updating my diary so I can give a bit more detail on captain strategy and overall team strategy.

Re the above...agree to disagree time.

Nancho is 5m and Ramos will take Militão place as opposed to the Uber versatile Nacho, however, I am confident that Courtois and Varane and Carvajal will play and Nacho is only relevant to me personally if Real do manage to keep a cleanie (god I hope they do).

I still cannot see the logic of picking a player that may or may not play or may or may not even make the final and if he does he needs to score a pen or keep a cleanie for it to be worth it....

Sounds a tall order to me.

Guess we will see when the dust has settled.

Those that were on City/Chelsea in a 551 have struck gold, they are the finalist no doubt.

It’s what I went for (with Benzema as the 1 and Mahrez captain). Shame I had such a shocking last 16 stage 😐

Hard luck to those with PSG - that’s surely done. But I’d give Real more than a squeak - a 2-2 all it needs.

I still don’t think PSG are done.

But i don’t suppose I wouldn’t.

Sigh.

Long way to go yet.

Still going for City v Real in the final as predicted. Can see Tuchel playing a weak side versus Fulham on Saturday...

good effort CBN, every chance you can finish top 100, outside chance of top 20 if it's a Chelsea/City as they'd be a lot of dead wood floating around you after the semi's.

Need Neymar to actually turn up tonight and hit the back of the net not the goal frame.

Tall order considering he’s up against a mighty Citeh defence.

Still if anyone can...

Will it really make that much difference to your best team now that Varane and Carvajal have been ruled out for the season? The big money places are surely out of reach now.

71st in the end. But was 1st for second and third stages - a case of what might have been!

£207 mate, so not too sad from my two teams (£22.50 each). Onto the euros!

Ha!! Me too! Darn it!! My 13th place team finished no where!! I went PSG and Real with it…enough said!! My 2nd place team shot to the rankings though but could t get me higher then like 300th…

Coincidently I also made £207 but from 7 teams so slight profit and almost doesn’t seem worth it but as we all
Know….it’s the big one we play for…

Luckily my positive disposition kicks in and I turn that £200 into ten opportunities to win £200k!

What’s more I have a plan!!

I mean I always do right….😊

This time it’s going to work though!!!

You have a plan? Has Block agreed to you sending him the money and he picks the teams for you?

Shhhhh….I could get done for cheating!!

We all know Blocks legendary prowess around these European teams……2nd only to yours truly!!!

It’s actually a good money making idea!! For a small fee I will pick your team for you….guaranteed to make a profit!

In seriousness though…this dies not look like an easy game at all.

Still trying to work out an “optimum strategy” my end…be good to share though…I do like Wales’ but think we will concede a fair few playing turkey and Italy and Switzerland so am thinking of dodgy to the defensive coverage…trouble is bale aside who will start in a lot of teams for me (simply because of price) there’s not to many other players to pick…I do like James and Wilson but they are both hit and miss players and not consistent so I’m struggling to fill midfield spots with them as there are so many different mids available and when I do a “Welsh” team it just looks weak and I keep finding myself bringing in the usual suspects….

Another player I like is grealish but I just don’t know if he’s going to start…..

Bale is certainly underpriced. Struggling to pick him though.

Grealish doesn't start, you can have that one for free!
