Dream Team

DREAM TEAM EUROS doesn’t really get started properly until Kylian Mbappe (£7.5m) has played.France’s No10 registered eight points in his first outing of the tournament despite the fact he missed a golden one-on-one opportunity against Austria.The 25-year-old notched an assist for his decisive contribution to the game’s only goal, a disastrous own goal from defender Max Wober (£2.5m).It was all eyes on Mbappe on Monday nightCredit: Dream TeamMbappe also banked three bonus points for a performance that, while lively, didn’t require the superstar forward to slip into a high gear.With an ownership of 45.7%, most Dream Team Euros managers would have been relatively content with an eight-point return, although those who captained Mbappe will have been frustrated by the surprising miss.However, a major spanner was thrown in the works late on when Les Bleus’ captain collided with Kevin Danso’s shoulder (£2.5m) at a set-piece.The impact left Mbappe with a broken nose that forced him off, though not before he collected a cheap yellow card for entering the field of play before being instructed – an unusual moment that resulted in a minus point.With the deadline for Matchday 2 at 1pm on Wednesday (June 19th) gaffers are now sweating on the availability of arguably the highest-profile player in Dream Team Euros.Mbappe took a nasty blow at the end of normal timeCredit: GettyThe French Football Federation has published a statement saying: “Kylian Mbappe has returned to the base camp of the French team. He will undergo treatment in the coming days, without undergoing surgery immediately.”A mask will be made so as to allow the No10 of the French team to consider resuming competition after a period devoted to treatment.”Most read in Dream TeamThat last phrase is crucial as “after a period devoted to treatment” suggests Mbappe is a doubt for France’s meeting with the Netherlands on Friday. Even accounting for the best mask money can buy, will Didier Deschamps risk his star player with qualification for the round of 16 all but assured after Monday night’s victory over Austria?”I don’t think it’s that bad,” Adrien Rabiot (£3.5m) told reporters when asked about his team-mate’s injury. “I think he can recover quickly.“Let’s see what the doctors say. He may miss the next game against the Netherlands but he will surely be back very quickly.”Deschamps may be without Mbappe against NetherlandsCredit: APCompetitive Dream Team Euros bosses can’t afford to accommodate a £7.5m striker who doesn’t play in Matchday 2.The risk-adverse approach is to replace him with one of the other premium assets who are guaranteed to start in the second round of group games, such as Harry Kane (£7.5m) or Jude Bellingham (£6m).Portugal play their first game this evening against Czechia and, depending on how that plays out, Cristiano Ronaldo (£6m) could also be considered a viable replacement for Mbappe – the five-time Ballon d’Or winner at least offers a similar level of goal threat.The top-scoring forward in the game at the time of writing is Cody Gakpo (£4m) but, funnily enough, he faces France next and so he’s likely to find points harder to come by.READ MORE SUN STORIESElsewhere, Kai Havertz (£4.5m) is already a popular recruit prior to Matchday 2 after his impressive showing during Germany’s 5-1 thrashing of Scotland, in which he bagged 13 points.It’s possible gaffers will be offered a further update from the French camp in relation to Mbappe’s availability before 1pm tomorrow but as it stands, the joint-most expensive asset in the game has to be considered a major availability risk.Germany Legend Jurgen Klinsmann reveals which stars he’d pick in Dream Team Euros More

DREAM TEAM EUROS managers should be paying close attention to which players are thriving in Matchday 1.One individual who certainly falls into that category is Fabian Ruiz (£3.5m).Ruiz and Spain sent out a statement of intent against CroatiaCredit: Dream TeamThe Spain midfielder produced three minutes of magic to put his side firmly in the ascendancy against Croatia on Saturday, an advantage Luis de la Fuente’s side converted into a 3-0 victory.Just before the half-hour mark, Ruiz slipped a perfectly-weighted throughball into the path of Alvaro Morata (£5.5m), who finished in a one-on-one situation to break the deadlock.Moments later, the PSG playmaker exhibited great skill and composure to beat two defenders on the edge of the box and fire home a second.Ruiz’s goal is among the best scored at the tournament to date and would perhaps have been lauded more had it been scored by one of Spain’s more celebrated players.The 28-year-old is the unsung hero in midfield alongside Rodri (£4m), widely acknowledged as the best player in his position in world football, and Pedri (£4m), Barcelona’s supremely talented 21-year-old.Ruiz scored and assisted on SundayCredit: APAnd it’s probably because Ruiz has a lower profile among Dream Team Euros bosses that he features in just 1.3% of teams at the time of writing.What matters most is that is that he returned 13 points against Croatia in a fixture that, on paper, promised to be among the most competitive at top end of the scale in Matchday 1.As it turned out, La Roja overwhelmed Luka Modric (£4m) and company in the first half and while they had to withstand some pressure after the break, they ultimately completed a statement win that has made them favourites to top Group B.Most read in FootballAs one of the most successful Dream Team Euros assets in his position so far, Ruiz will be viewed as a potential differential option ahead of Matchday 2.However, Spain will once again be involved in arguably the standout match-up of the lot when they meet Italy in Gelsenkirchen on Thursday.Spain are among the most impressive sides at the Euros so farCredit: ReutersThat being said, gaffers who stayed clear of Spain assets in Matchday 1 because of their potentially tricky fixture missed out plentiful points.Ruiz is a typically Spanish midfielder in that he is an accomplished technician who is comfortable in tight spaces and progresses the ball smoothly.Truth be told, he generally does his best work in the middle third of the pitch but it’s worth noting he also scored in his side’s final pre-tournament friendly; a real poacher’s effort too.If Spain outclass Italy then gaffers will surely be keen to back them in Matchday 3 (vs Albania) and the round of 16 (potentially a third-place finisher).

ENGLAND got their Euro 2024 campaign underway with a win over Serbia in Gelsenkirchen but question marks remain after an unconvincing second half.The Three Lions played well enough for the first half an hour with Jude Bellingham (£6m), the jewel in the crown, scoring what proved to be the winner with an emphatic header.The 20-year-old superstar delivered 13 points for the 42.1% of Dream Team Euros managers currently backing him – the joint-fifth highest haul of the tournament at the time of writing.Bellingham turned up for England against SerbiaCredit: Dream TeamBellingham supplemented his goal with three bonus points, a tackle point, and two appearance points, justifying his status as the most-popular midfielder in Dream Team Euros.He was also among the most-selected captains in Matchday 1, meaning a sizeable chunk of gaffers banked 26 points via England’s match-winner on Sunday night.However, the other popular attacking selections among Gareth Southgate’s squad came up short.Harry Kane (£7.5m) touched the ball just twice in the first half and ultimately provided just four points – an underwhelming return for the game’s most-popular player right now.The prolific striker forced a sharp save from Predrag Rajkovic (£2m) and helped England kill the game by winning a succession of free-kicks but his relative lack of involvement was a cause for concern.Kane is the joint-most expensive asset in the game at £7.5m and so Dream Team Euros bosses will hold him to high standards.Kane was barely involved in the first half at allCredit: GettyThe same is true of Phil Foden (£6.5m).Most read in FootballThe FWA Footballer of the Year once again looked relatively ineffectual on the left flank and he returned just three points when all was said and done.The 24-year-old finished Dream Team’s latest season game as the outright top points scorer and his talent is undoubted but the question of where he fits into Southgate’s system is even more of a talking point after Sunday’s performance.Compared to Germany and Spain, England’s win was uninspiring and it may be that gaffers feel compelled to switch up their strategy before Matchday 2.In more positive news, the Three Lions did register a clean sheet, just the second in the first seven fixtures of the tournament.This ensured healthy returns for Jordan Pickford (£4m) and all the defenders, including makeshift midfielder Trent Alexander-Arnold (£5m) and bargain option Marc Guehi (£3m).England’s defence held firmCredit: GettyEngland players are hugely popular in Dream Team Euros with seven assets featuring in more than 10% of teams at present.Overreacting to one game can be a mistake but, in the same breath, Dream Team Euros consists of just seven Matchdays and so the sooner gaffers gauge which teams are the genuine contenders this summer, the better.England face Denmark in Matchday 2 – Christian Eriksen (£3m) and company only mustered a draw with Slovenia on Sunday.Stick or twist?Jack Wilshere, Jurgen Klinsmann and Gordon Strachan settle some HUGE Dream Team Euros debates More

DREAM TEAM EUROS bosses have until 7pm to lock in their captain and vice-captain for Matchday 1.Remember, your captain will have their points doubled by the armband and your vice-captain will have their points doubled if your first-choice selection doesn’t play for any reason.Let’s analyse the most appealing options for the first round of group games.DON’T MISS OUT – PLAY DREAM TEAM EUROS NOW!Who else?Credit: Dream TeamKylian Mbappe (£7.5m)It should come as no surprise that France’s captain is the popular choice.The 2022 World Cup Golden Boot winner skipped training on Thursday with a flu bug disrupting Les Bleus’ preparations but, at this stage, the superstar forward is expected to start against Austria on Monday night.With goals worth six points in Dream Team Euros, it’s hard to argue against Mbappe for captain.Gaffers looking to take him on might be encouraged by the sickness in the French camp, which could possibly hamper Didier Deschamps’ side.Plus, Austria are no mugs – they’ve beaten Croatia, Italy and Germany under Ralf Rangnick.All things considered, Mbappe is a safe and sound selection for captain but there’s scope for alternatives if you’re that way inclined.Cristiano Ronaldo (£6m)Those who bet against Ronaldo often loseCredit: GettyThe five-time Ballon d’Or winner looked in fine form against Republic of Ireland in Portugal’s final pre-tournament friendly and no player, not even Mbappe, heads to Germany with a better reputation for scoring goals.Some gaffers may be hesitant to back a 39-year-old who spent the domestic season in the Saudi Pro League but Ronaldo has never adhered to normal expectations.The legendary No7 rattled along at a rate of a goal a game for Al-Nasser in 2023/24 and with the likes of Bruno Fernandes (£6m) and Bernardo Silva (£4.5m) in the supply line, he will fancy his chances of extending his record of 14 goals in European Championships when he faces Czechia on Tuesday.Fernandes is also in the captaincy conversation given his form in 2024.EUROS SCORE PREDICTOR IS HERE!

Romelu Lukaku (£5.5m)Lukaku’s record is not to be underestimatedCredit: GettyBelgium’s hulking target man broke the record for most goals in a European Championship qualifying campaign when he bagged 14 in just eight outings to book his side’s place in Germany.More broadly, he’s scored 85 goals in 115 caps at international level.If you’re somebody who considers Lukaku a flat-track bully then that shouldn’t have too much of an impact on the striker’s viability for Matchday 1 as the Red Devils are set to face Slovakia, one of tournament’s biggest underdogs.The 31-year-old boasts an excellent record for Belgium but when things go wrong for him they go really wrong – remember those misses against Croatia at the World Cup? – so it might be wise to wait for a look at his form before rushing to stick the armband on him.But if you feel confident in Lukaku’s ability to punish Slovakia then crack on – he’s got Kevin De Bruyne (£7m) feeding him after all.Scotland legend Gordon Strachan gives his verdict on some BIG Dream Team Euros questions More

DREAM TEAM EUROS managers are spoiled for choice in midfield.The likes of Jude Bellingham (£6m), Bruno Fernandes (£6m) and Kevin De Bruyne (£7m) are all hugely popular selections but a budget of £50million only covers a certain number of premium stars.Many gaffers will be on the hunt for a bargain midfielder to balance the books ahead of Matchday 1.Allow us to put forward some suggestions…DON’T MISS OUT – PLAY DREAM TEAM EUROS NOW!Underrated and undervaluedCredit: Dream TeamChristoph Baumgartner (£2.5m)Austria are expected to be a compelling side this summer as Ralf Rangnick has successfully implemented (for want of a better term) ‘Red Bull football’ since he took charge – think intense pressing and high energy.As an RB Leipzig player, Baumgartner has naturally taken to the tactics like a duck to water, with impressive results to show for his efforts.The 24-year-old heads to Germany having scored in each of his last five games at international level.He also notched three goals and two assists in seven outings during qualifying.That being said, Austria are set to face France in Matchday 1 so gaffers keen on Baumgartner could wait until Matchday 2.Although Rangnick’s side have beaten Croatia, Italy and Germany since they adopted a more ambitious approach…Viktor Tsygankov (£2.5m)Tsygankov played an important role in Ukraine’s journey to GermanyCredit: GettyGaffers more inclined to dub Ukraine ‘dark horses’ should consider their lively right winger, who has outperformed Mykhailo Mudryk (£3m) in recent times.Tsygankov plays his club football with Girona, where he’s team-mates with compatriot and La Liga top scorer Artem Dovbyk (£3m), but he’s saved his best form for the international stage.The 26-year-old has scored six goals in his last ten outings for Ukraine, including a brace against Germany.Serhiy Rebrov’s side were dealt a tough draw during qualifying with Italy and England for company but their group at the tournament itself appears relatively friendly – they face Romania and Slovakia before a more testing match-up against Belgium.See also: Heorhii Sudakov (£2.5m)PLAY DREAM TEAM EUROS NOW!The best fantasy football game for this summer’s tournament.
Scott McTominay (£2.5m)Scotland’s primary goal threat?The Manchester United midfielder was Scotland’s clutch goalscorer during qualifying – he bagged seven in total to book his country’s place in Germany.In previous years he’s been viewed as a combative, defensive anchor but more recently he’s been an increasingly effective contributor in the final third for club and country.Like Baumgartner, McTominay’s first fixture is a tough one on paper with Steve Clarke’s men raising the curtain against hosts Germany on Friday night.Dream Team Euros bosses may be a tad underwhelmed at the prospect of selecting a player who has notable limitations but it’s simply a fact he was among the top goalscorers in qualifying.EUROS SCORE PREDICTOR IS HERE! CLICK PLAY FOR FREE NOW – £5,000 PRIZE POT!Roland Sallai (£2.5m)England’s tormentorHungary are another team in the ‘dark horses’ conversation having gone unbeaten in qualifying and knocked off England 4-0 at Molineux in the Nations League.Expectations were dampened by a 2-1 loss to the Republic of Ireland in their final pre-tournament friendly but they’re expected to be very competitive in Group A.Dominik Szoboszlai (£3.5m) is unquestionably Hungary’s main man but his price puts him in the mid-range whereas Sallai is comparatively affordable.The Freiburg winger offers plenty of industry and his output at international level is more than respectable – he’s scored seven goals and provided three assists in his last 14 outings, including a brace against the Three Lions in that aforementioned upset.Arda Guler (£2.5m)WonderkidCredit: GettyNo list of cheap of midfielders would be complete without an exciting teenager.The Real Madrid youngster was limited to just 373 minutes in La Liga this season but he managed six goals in that time at a strike rate of one every 62.2 minutes.Guler was particularly impressive at the back end of the campaign when Carlo Ancelotti have him a little run in the starting line-up.This major international tournament might come too soon for the 19-year-old to flaunt his skills to the full extent but he’s clearly a natural talent.Turkey have the benefit of a favourable Matchday 1 fixture in the form of Georgia.Guler is a tempting option but it should be noted that Hakan Calhanoglu (£3m) is available for an extra £0.5m.Jack Wilshere, Jurgen Klinsmann and Gordon Strachan settle some HUGE Dream Team Euros debates More

“I’ve been doing Dream Team for 20 years,” Jeff Hannell told The Sun after he was confirmed as the winner of Dream Team’s season fantasy game for 2023/24. “I remember when you had to phone up to make changes!”Experienced gaffer Jeff racked up a whopping 4,329 points to land the £50,000 top prize, beating over 325,000 rivals worldwide.In an interview with The Sun, the 68-year-old West Ham fan revealed that while he’s played Dream Team for many years, this past season was the first time he set his sights on the overall leaderboard.”I’ve had some health problems since I retired,” Jeff told us. “Rather than just trying to win my Mini League, this year I decided to take it seriously. I was looking at statistics, which I’ve never done before.”Being retired and having things that I normally do taken away from me because of these heart problems… Dream Team’s been a saviour for me this last season because I can put all my effort into it.”PLAY DREAM TEAM EUROS NOW – £50,000 PRIZE POT!Dream Team rewards serious football knowledge with huge sums of cash!Credit: Dream TeamJeff’s focused approach coincided with several improvements to Dream Team’s fantasy game, from a new scoring system to the revised transfer allocation.”Short-term thinking, rather than monthly planning, suited me more,” he explained. “I think The Sun Dream Team is the near-perfect format this year. I did FPL [Fantasy Premier League] for the first time this year but I just think Dream Team is the best out there. “You’ve got the Premier League, League Cup, FA Cup, European competitions. I think you’ve got it near-perfect now! I can’t praise you enough really.”Jeff was happy to reveal the key players that set him apart from the rest.”I owned 55 players during the season. Ones that spring to mind… obviously Palmer. Kudus. Luis Diaz I had at times when nobody else did. I had Foden all season, from the start.”Around Christmas time, I was looking for players other managers in the top 20 or top 100 didn’t have. I brought in Eze for a one-week punt. I bought Isak in at the right time. I brought in Jackson at Chelsea towards the end.”Jeff backed Dream Team’s top points scorer in 2023/24 from the very startCredit: PAJeff’s decisive stroke of genius came in the form of a brave captaincy choice in Gameweek 34 that saw him back Erling Haaland over Ollie Wakins, despite the latter having a fixture advantage.”Towards the end, I had Haaland as captain and only 15 out of the top 100 had him. Everyone else went Watkins because he had two games. I stuck with Haaland and he scored four goals [against Wolves]. That shot me up to first place!”That inspired decision put Jeff in pole position but his victory wasn’t confirmed until the final whistle of the FA Cup final between Manchester United and Manchester City at Wembley.”Coming into the final weeks I must have changed my mind about players 25 times. I was nervous watching the cup final. My pulse rate was racing. I’ve never been in this position before or taken it this seriously.”As it worked out, even though I had a lot of Man City players and they got beat, I was still picking up three or four points, which was enough.”EUROS SCORE PREDICTOR IS HERE!

I’ve had Kane in and out after their poor performance the other day. Obviously England are favourites but I can’t quite see that.”Harry Kane has been “in and out” of Jeff’s team since England lost to IcelandCredit: GettyJeff predicted a Portugal v France final when asked about which teams he fancies to do well this summer, perhaps another indication of his Dream Team Euros strategy.Naturally, gaffers new to the world of Dream Team should heed advice from a man who has proved himself to be the best in the world this past year.”Look for as many helpful tips as you can,” Jeff offered as introductory advice. “I like to see players coming into form so I would say try watch as many games as you can.

Immediately there looks to be an opportunity for gaffers to get the edge over Klinsmann with the German having selected Tottenham’s Guglielmo Vicario (£3m) between the sticks.There’s no doubting Vicario’s ability, but it does seem unlikely that Gianluigi Donnarumma (£4m) will be dropped from Italy’s starting XI.Klinsmann has opted for three at the back with Germany’s attacking full-back Maximilian Mittelstadt (£3.5m), Italy’s Alessandro Bastoni (£4m) and Spain’s Alejandro Grimaldo (£4.5m), who enjoyed a stunning campaign with Bayer Leverkusen (12 goals and 14 assists).Jurgen Klinsmann has included three from hosts GermanyCredit: DREAM TEAMAge is clearly just a number for Klinsmann, who’s selected 38-year-old Luka Modric (£4m) and 32-year-old Christian Eriksen (£3m) in his midfield – although both are set-piece takers for their respective nations.They’re joined by Spanish midfield maestro Rodri (£4m), and flanked by attacking German duo Jamal Musiala (£4.5m) and Florian Wirtz (£4.5m).It’s not too difficult to see where the majority of Klinsmann’s budget has gone.
