I'll get the ball rolling sharing our teams - here's mine:

Lukaku is my left-field shout, I reckon he could bag quite a few if Belgium are in form. McTominay turns into prime Maradona when he plays for Scotland, and Rodri is on penalties for Spain so he feels like a no brainer. I may regret not having any outfield players for Germany, but I'm waiting to see the final squads before deciding for certain on Ter Stegen or Neuer, as Neuer has been injured a lot recently so hasn't played for Germany in a while. That said, this may change considerably between now and the first game on 14 June!

Lukaku is definitely a risky choice, but that's the thing with Belgium, you just never know what they're going to do! He could bang in a good few goals if he gets the service from De Bruyne but they often look so disjointed for such a talented team.

Really looking forward to the first game tomorrow, hoping for a positive result for the Scots!

Giving this thread a bump as the tournament starts in two days - don't forget to join the league, folks! ✌

I've joined! Here's my starting XI... as you can tell, I only really follow the premier league / know reasonably famous players. So no wildcards here!

Will create one tonight.

Ok here is mine. No idea who most of these people are as I'm into non league football rather than the pro level. Then I watch Internationals every two years.

Haven't followed football much recently so my team is likely a couple of years out of date...

Reminder to check your team before the "matchday" starts at 8pm. The first match day ends when all teams have played their first game.

I had some players that had been auto put in as subs instead of the starting 11.

The app for this is really good. Updates in real time.

Close competition at the top with 2 "match days" to go.

Just 4 points in it as we head into the final game! I have one or two players who got knocked out.... Good job I saved my limitless card!

I'm 9th, but probably to be expected as I haven't made a single substitution since setting my starting XI before the tournament (woops!).
