The hard one will be finding replacements for Idowu and Uzoho. I've got the same problem with Uzoho. A starting keeper at 4.0 is a gift.

you do get extra money, and unlimited transfers.
Is it possible to play without any subs?

addition:
the rules state that "Upon completion of the group stage, player prices will change depending on performances."
so perhaps you can pick De Gea

you could get 3 cheapo bastards and keep them perma-benched, that would be the closest to “no subs”

i did that with my nigerians... but one of them actually scored last date lol

& haaa haaaaa de gea

I'm just taking out players as they're eliminated and autocompleting till we're down to the final 16.

Big dilemma for Southgate and Martinez. It looks like England and Belgium will both benefit from finishing 2nd rather than 1st if (in all probability) they're to avoid Colombia, rather than Japan or Senegal.

that's what I do. I have one 4m Korean and one 4m Nigerian who never play and I always sit them on the bench. Then I have more cash for more valuable play who actually make some points.

Looks like I hit the spot with the goalkeepers though. the Ochoa/Ospina combo is great value for money.

!@#$%! · 06.27.2018, 08:53 AM

^^ that is good pareto!

—

that is good pareto of course unless you pick the wrong players. in my case it looks like martinez is gonna rest lukaku and debruyne? lol my picks. this round not good for me for the most part.

also what demonyo said earlier: the strategic play in the england/belgium match would be to lose, ha ha ha

—

also tough call on what to watch this morning

mexico seems to offer the most entertaining option

but i think ima see germany since it’s the most desperate contest and i know the players

will catch mexiquito on replay tonight most likely.

—

wondering if the germany results would influence current german politics. winning good for merkel, losing would spell her doom. no? hmmmm...

_tunic_ · 06.27.2018, 09:04 AM

Mexico wins!!!!!!!

fastest yellow card in the tournament

Relieved (for now) that I chose to switch my keeper and left Gallardo on the bench.

!@#$%! · 06.27.2018, 09:33 AM

at ~30’, little creativity from germany on the attack so far

korea has rarely reached the german area but has been more dangerous when they have

Yeah. German seeing a lot of the ball but not doing much with it.

!@#$%! · 06.27.2018, 09:57 AM

yep. same thing for the rest of the half.

a bit of interest maybe from reus and timo but so sparse and isolated to not be a real threat

i dont see a way forward for germany except from set pieces

what’s up with les mexicaines?

demonrail666 · 06.27.2018, 10:01 AM

I'm not watching it but hear Sweden were denied a nailed on Pen.

demonrail666 · 06.27.2018, 10:15 AM

Sweden goal! Massive. Germany on their way out.

_tunic_ · 06.27.2018, 10:23 AM

2-0 for Sweden. With a penalty that wasn't a foul, burnouts VAR intervention
Mexico is out if Deutschland scores. And they will, in the 93rd minute. They always do

_tunic_ · 06.27.2018, 10:24 AM

Burnouts = without
Stupid spellchecker

!@#$%! · 06.27.2018, 10:31 AM

omfg sweden winning 2-0???

_tunic_ · 06.27.2018, 10:33 AM

No.it's 3-0 now!!!
I won't score many points this round with my three Mexicans and three Belgians. Belgium will most likely play with sort-of a B-team, leaving out the three yellow carded players and the slightly injured (Lukaku and maybe one or two more)

!@#$%! · 06.27.2018, 10:34 AM

the horror....

demonrail666 · 06.27.2018, 10:37 AM

Oh man, this Germany game is great. Korea have nothing to play for but want to win this

!@#$%! · 06.27.2018, 10:38 AM

germany better since mueller and gomez in but no cigar—keeper working

brandt now maybe
