Check out my choices for Saturday’s Matchday 3 action!
GK Lukasz Fabianski, $4,500, LEI v SWA
I’m not so impressed with how Leicester City have been attacking this season, and this man has been pulling off a lot of saves. A bargain even if he doesn’t keep a clean sheet.
DF Kyle Naughton, $3,700 LEI v SWA
Again, the CS factor is unimportant, as Naughton has been pumping in the crosses this season, and even had what looked like a goal-bound grasscutter be turned away… by Fernando Llorente!
DF Matt Targett $4,500 SUN v SOU
Are Sunderland rubbish? Answers on a postcard please. They’ll spend the game in their half holding out, and Targett will bombard the box. Good enough for me.
MF Eden Hazard $8,600 CHE v BUR
Chelsea’s North, South, East and West at the moment. He’s everywhere.
MF Paul Pogba $8,000 HUL v MUFC
What a debut for the £89 million man. Hull have defended stoutly so far but Pogba has proved that he can dance past multiple opponents and make dangerous runs. A liability.
FW Zlatan Ibrahimovic $9,600 HUL v MUFC
Don’t mess with the form. If he can outjump Jose Fonte, he won’t struggle with Curtis Davies and Jake Livermore. What is it with Hull recruiting former Tottenham players? And ex Tottenham guys often being valued DK picks?
FW Nordin Amrabat $4,000 WAT v ARS
No, I’m not crazy (ahem) and no, this isn’t a mistake. He really isn’t my utility pick, I saw him there and though he was value. He’s scored good points so far, Arsenal’s defence looked horrendous against Liverpool, and Watford have kept up with their strong opponents so far.
UTIL Andros Townsend $7,100 CRY v BOU
He’s been scoring hatfuls of points, and now he’s got that Christian Benteke chap alongside him.
It’s finally here, ladies and gentlemen.
France play dark horses Portugal at the Parc des Princes on Sunday hoping to match Germany and win their third European Championship, their second at home.
They face a Portugal side that has come up short so often of late, racking up the semi-final appearances without ever managing to lift silverware.
Considering I got both semi-final results horribly wrong (WAL 1-0 POR, FRA 1-2 GER), you should DEFINITELY trust me to get it right this time!
But what did I go for? Check me out on Draft Kings TV with Andy Davies, Jamie Hinks and Tyrone Atkins. With thanks to El Jefe Wade McElwain!
Here is my DraftKings lineup for the Euro 2016 semi-finals, which I stupidly forgot to post yesterday.
As you can see, my picks for the Wales-Portugal game were hardly stellar, though Gareth Bale acquitted himself well.
Of more relevance are the players I’ve picked for tonight’s France- Germany game.
Check out my picks here!
For a slightly longer explanation, here I am discussing them with the great Andy Davies, Jamie Hinks and Wade McElwain…
And below are my Chooser, my Loser, and my Gem. Tommy Muller, I am so, so sorry. You’re a great player (and a bit of a squealer, but never mind that), but I just don’t see you shining tonight. Which’ll probably mean you’re going home with a hat-trick and Carla Bruni in your suitcase. Oh well.
CHECK OUT THAT FACE BY THE WAY. IT’LL LAUNCH 10.000 SHIPS ONE DAY LEMME TELL YA.
Here’s the way I see the France – Germany semi going… a bit of a surprise maybe.
With the fantastic Jamie Hinks, Andy Davies and Wade McElwain
Check out my take on tonight’s key match between Wales and Portugal.
Surprisingly, I think Wales may just pip this one…
