For some reason you have to rejoin and pick a new team, prices have gone up and you're only allowed 2 players from each team now.


Anyways the code to join the Grime Forum league is


3683-1095


Join up here...


http://en.fantasy.euro2008.uefa.com/









If like me you have a next team you'd like to try out to then join league 2 with this code...

11654-2544


You'll need a next email address though.

Allback is a bargain 6 goals in 9 of Sweden Euro Qualifiers and 7.5 million. Sweden should do alright in the group so it's likely he'll tuck some away. I had to bring in Ronaldo as he has scored 8 in the qualifiers.

£14 mil for ronaldo is he really worth it? Fabregas, Ribery and Ballack all cheaper. I think portugal have got a chance of doing but so do spain and germany, so I'm gonna choose someone else.

Man some of you guys have gotta forget about Sweden, it's gonna be Russia and spain that take that group.

You can't really risk not having Ronaldo, there's a good chance he'll score against teams like Austria and Turkey. And especially when he's considered a midfielder, thats ALOT of points. Double with captain.

I was going to say this but i want to win :)

Plus people who think Allback is going to start, think again

Henrik Larrson has come out of International Retirement for Euro 2008, and they already have Ibrahamvicicicicicicicic, can't spell his name, but you know who i'm talking about.

I don't have Torres, Ronaldo or Fabregas in my team either

Which is a par allback scored 6 in 9 ibraham has no international goals since 05 and larrson should stay retired imo.

Probably gonna do some transfers seeing as you don't lose points Quaresma can go, maybe Kallistrom, Kovac, have to see. Plenty of players are gonna do alot Modric, Villa, Klose etc.

Lads theirs only been 2 games so far it's all gonna change trust me.

You get 4 free transfers per gameweek, which is kinda generous and to be honest the best thing you can do is use them and try to guess who are gonna keep clean sheets or who is up against weak opponents. I don't want any Italy defenders but they have got Romania soon so getting a defender for that one game would be a good idea.

Exactly. The people who are top had two Portuguese players (including Pepe) and Czech player at the moment. The remainder of their team won't all perform.

If Croatia and Germany have good games today, there are a lot of people who are midtable atm with Ballack, Lahm, Pletikosa etc. who are going to jump upwards. Myself included.

I wouldn't say it's a stupid move. Looking at the remaining games and how their opposition have fared so far, it's entirely likely that Portugal will keep a clean sheet. On top of that they will go far in the competition because if the side of the draw they are in.

I was hoping Pepe wouldn't score because I wanted to transfer him in after this match day for Ufalusfi anyway as the Czech's wont keep a clean sheet against Portugal IMO. Everyone has him now but anyway...

same, and he played well today but was let down by the rest of them italian fags

i think i did shit today

Picked up 2 points from Pirlo and 3 from Ribery. I'll take that, and I don't think their performances warrant subbing them out. They both need to perform now anyway and loads of people will proabably sub them out for players like Kuyt, Snneijder etc.

I still have Villa and Ibrahimovic to play. Hoping to finish in the top 5 of our mini league after tomorrow.

Swap one of your players for a player of equal or less value for the same position. No point using it now as you can only bring in players from group D.

Out: Kawikisnki POL 5.5
In: Gercaliu AUS 5.0

Frees up 0.5m around the park and Gercaliu makes a good sub, and appears to play most games- great value. Austria actually play Poland and Im hoping for a nil-nil draw.

Out: Makelele FRA 5.5m
In: Ambriosini ITA 6m

Italy look to have the easier game taking on Romani and should come out like a wounded animal and wouldn't be suprised if they keep a clean sheet. If they do, he should at the very least gain a point extra than Makelele, because i can see France conceding against Holland. Could even net an assist if they score a couple.

Out: Heitinga HOL 7.5m
IN: Matterazi ITA 7.5m

Can't see Italy playing as bad next week, good player, up for corners sometimes and at least Matterazi will play near on 90 minutes and start the game, which is 1-2 points extra than Heitinga got this week.

OUT: Baros CZE 7.5m
IN: Nihat TUR 8.5M

Turkey take on Switzerland so should be some points gained there, hopefully a goal or two, must win game as well. At the very least I'll get 3 points for him starting and playing 90 minutes- looking to make subs of players that will definately start and play the whole game and then decide who is most effective.

Assuming no injuries, should be effective subs.
