SG's WC2014 Draft - Sign-up/Discussion thread

[Pogba4Now]

League table updated, kp is back on top and with a nice 10-point lead over second-placed Mus.

nady and Xaviesta though, are the only teams whose players are yet to miss a game. So theoretically, they are better positioned than anyone else.
So let's all hope their players start flopping hard

Immobile didn't play earlier today

Imagine if Reus wasn't injured though. Immobile took his place in my lineup because of his injury.

 

[Pogba4Now]

I have the wrong Valencia.

 

[Mus]

Immobile didn't play earlier today

Imagine if Reus wasn't injured though. Immobile took his place in my lineup because of his injury.

All 3 sub's were attackers too

 

[Pogba4Now]

That's why Italy lost.

 

[MaSsiVe]

Had Immobile played you'd probably be on top now. Mus thanks Prandelli and sneaks back up to the lead!

 

[Pogba4Now]

Of the 18 players I have:

7 are already eliminated (Bosnia, England and Spain)
4 have already qualified for the knockout stages (Netherlands, France)
1 or 2 will qualify (Xhaka or Valencia and Banguera - they are in the same group and either Swiss or Equador will qualify)
1 player will most likely qualify (Thiago Silva)
3 may qualify (Italy, Croatia) but 2 of them probably won't play (Eduardo and Immobile)

So realistically I am looking at approximately 7 players for the knockout stages. Hopefully I'll have a few players left for the quarter finals! I'm screwed.

 

[Pogba4Now]

Xaviesta is best placed at the moment because 11 of his players have already secured qualification and only 1 has disqualified. His other players have a high chance of qualifying.

 

[Pogba4Now]

This is my best case scenario:

But Eduardo and Immobile probably won't play.

 

[Mandieta6]

My Nigeria squadron is looking good.

 

[MaSsiVe]

League table updated, Xaviesta finally on top! His shitload of argentinians did the job. Maybe in the third match Sabella rests all of his players and we take advantage of that to get closer

 

[ShiftyPowers]

When can I make subs? Like, can I bring Fabian Johnson on for Schar right now before the US game?

 

[MaSsiVe]

No. You can do it after the group stage is over, in case Switzerland gets eliminated.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

I thought someone else had made a substitution, but okay no problem.

 

[MaSsiVe]

Substutions made so far were due to injuries, exclusively.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Okay cheers

 

[Back Door Skip]

I've no clue what's going on and I'm too lazy to check. Pretty sure I lost already.

 

[yoyo913]

Shifty == Kp

 

[yoyo913]

Vermaelen seem injured. I want to sub Mena for him if he is.

 

[fender]

BMI has a concussion and is gonna miss the last group match, keeping him in for now.

 

[yoyo913]

Vermaelen seem injured. I want to sub Mena for him if he is.

Seeing as the Chile game is tomorrow, I'll do the sub.
