Fantasy World Cup

Steulen

International Regular
I've only had two of my XI play as yet, Grecko and Schweinsteiger. Good thing I left Messi on the bench this round as he netted a cool 0 points. Today I have Zambrotta, Sneijder and Van Persie lined up, should be a fair few points.

He's netted you 0 points because you left him on the bench. He netted me 18 as my captain.

Nah, made a few changes in the end, I'm sure the team you posted didn't add up anyway. Plus I CBF spending time faffing about with it.

Am livid, didn't understand how it worked properly so have 34 points worth of players sat on my bench. All of who would improve my current side.

Don't think there's many fantasy games where it's advisable to put good players on the bench.

It's a simple case of reading the rules before entering - surely a 23 man squad would've struck you as being a tad too large otherwise.

I suspect my captain is still yet to play because of the way the fixtures are spread out, but with the right planning it is easy to have 3 or 4 attempts at getting the captain right.

Ha, just realised one of the two North Korean randoms I picked because they only cost £1m each was the goalscorer v Brazil. Would've taken a braver man than me to put him in the team tho.

Dire, forgot to alter starting line-up after initially selecting. Had podolski & ozil on the bench >.<

Villa & Pique to come good for me tonight though (y)
