Pablo DiscoBar Posted June 20, 2010 Author Share Posted June 20, 2010 Quite tempted to put C. JONG HYOK of North Korea in instead of Mertsecker (3) tomorrow. He got 6 last time. Also might take a chance of on VALLADARES of Hoduras to get more than Tim Howard (3). He could get quite a lot of save points against Spain. Any thoughts?

Rhino Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Kaka's unlikely to get the red overturned anyway as it wasn't for violent conduct, if I'm not mistaken. That could be totally different rules to those used by FIFA for the World Cup, mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sean_oc16 Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 That goal cost me clean sheet points too for Maicon, and he's actually the lowest scoring of the defenders in my XI. Fabiano got two goals though so 20 points between the two of them. For tomorrow, main decision is whether or not to keep 6 point RvP. Ninis (2 pts) and Dempsey (3 pts) likely to dropped atm. Xavi, Barnetta, Il Kim and Villa the players I can bring in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So may risk Eduardo of Portugal since they're playing PRK. Erm, I think you should have allowed Stojkovic to play as it is possible substitute any player between matchdays. If you substitute player after his game, you lose his points. Simple as that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, Im now 36 points behind my friends league leader. I am in second place. Bloody Higuain costing me the lead. Thinking of taking a masisive gamble today with my subs. VALLADARES IN HOWARD (3) OUT C. JONG HYOK IN MERTESAKER (3) OUT PIQUÉ IN DI MARIA (4) OUT VILLA IN ROONEY (4) OUT Also thinking of taking the captaincy off SNEIJDER (20 so down to 10 ) and putting it on VILLA or PIQUE.

Pablo DiscoBar Posted June 21, 2010 Author Share Posted June 21, 2010 Errrrrm why? Dunno - Its in the rules; " At the start of each day (00:00 South African time) during the round, a substitution window opens. In this window you can: * Replace any player that wasn't sent off with one from your bench who is yet to play. * Change your captain, providing he wasn’t sent off, with someone whose team is yet to play.

Pablo DiscoBar Posted June 21, 2010 Author Share Posted June 21, 2010 I think I agree with the rule tbf, although would be ****ed off if I was in your shoes. I think if a player gets sent off it should impact on your team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oscillate Wildly Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Got my first big substitution decision today. I can remove Van Persie (6 points) and bring in either Sanchez or Ronaldo. Ronaldo would seem the obvious pick, as he's up against North Korea and will probably dive to get a couple of the poor sods sent off or scared to tackle him (and then score a goal), and Switzerland kept out Spain so chances are they'd do the same to Chile. Plus the game only gave Sanchez 4 points last week even though he destroyed Honduras, and they'll find some way to give Ronaldo points for lots of things he didn't do because this game's like that. But, than, Ronaldo is a **** and Sanchez is awesome, and I'd rather watch today's games cheering for Sanchez than Ronaldo. Meh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razzler Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 I am quite pleased with myself for bringing in the Paraguay keeper after Buffon got injured, 9 last night and New Zealand to come + they should go through although we can just pick the squad again anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrDiCanio Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Got 99, happy enough with that. After being far too risky in the first round I was a lot more conservative this time, and it paid off. Going with Messi as my captain for tomorrow, if he doesn't get 10 or more I think I'll switch it to either Muller or Ozil though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo DiscoBar Posted June 21, 2010 Author Share Posted June 21, 2010 Its a touch that Brazil play first on the last day of the groups. Will be able to see the lineup. I think Robinho is a cert but Elano could well be rested. I guess Maicon will have a rest too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
