if that doesn't work here's the league code

ZVMCUTZB

There's the link to the group. Come one and all and play. Lurkers, gabbers, and whoever, come play.

I'm getting the invite but when I press confirm it says invalid code.

I can only assume Hodgson did the coding for that side.

having a hard time getting old account recognized / new account registered

very bizarre stuff

[h8kurdt]

The site is an absolute mess. However. I've another one with some other friends and there were no problems.

EDIT:Alright, try the back door option.

https://fantasy.fifa.com/en/myteam This'll take you to set up a team. Sort your team out, then the tab where it says leagues do a search for "SYG" and join that. You'll have to set up a new registration I think.

[demonrail666]

Thanks! I think that worked.

I just decided to go for players that'd score goals as that's what's gona get points. Went for a 5 midfield and packed it as much as I could with goalscorers...on a budget, mind.

supertired today but looking forward to setting up a team this weekend. dumped the auto-team made for me to be able to login and now ive got nothing.

[h8kurdt]

Tbh, Im just gonna post my team. One of those "show me yours; I'll show you kine" kinda things.

[_tunic_]

my strategy was to pick any player that has ever played in Dutch competition. God knows if they're good or not, but I don't know any players.


is it an option somewhere to share your team? Or do you mean copy/pasting names to here

Nah, just a simple screenshot will do

Edit:forgot we're still in 2006 here and anything slightly bigger than a postage stamp is too big.

[!@#$%!]

i was thinking of what teams have good odds and basing my team around that with mid-priced players of said countries. sorta like going for the underrated—eg no neymar or messi or cronaldo etc. or van bruyne.

btw im stuck with serbia as my country. wtf? trying to change it cant find the button.

might have to quit, dump the old profile and start from scratch. hmmmmm...

My word on French players:
Forwards are good (Lemar will not probably play a lot, Fekir will be underused, when he's quite good).
In midfield, Pogba's feeling pressure and at last has delivered in his last games. He'll waste a lot in the last minutes though. And will be unconvincing once again. I wish Tolisso's used more.
Defenders... Umtiti and Varane will start in central positions. Are they really good together? Alas, Koscielny picked up an injury that ruled him out. He would have been the most convincing one. Substitutes Kimpembe and Rami won't be used much.
On the flanks, alas, that's worse. Deschamps selected Mendy and Sidibé. Mendy picked up an knee injury in the early stages of the 1997-98 Premier League and hasn't been back to his best yet. By far. Will he play 90 minutes? Nope. Hernandez will replace him now and then, and he’s way better than an out-of-form Mendy. On the other flank, that’s worse. Sidibé’s the one who should have started all games. He’s picked up an injury too, but not as alarming as Mendy’s. The problem is he’s a liability (USA today). More and more people would like to see Benjamin Pavard instead. Simply because Pavard does defend well, a thing Sidibé seldom do (Pavard is a bargain for Fantasy managers). I hope Deschamps picks him.
Goalkeepers : none of them are good. Nope. My favourite French keeper is Ruffier, who plays for Saint-Etienne, who neither plays the Champions League, nor the Europa League. Yet, he has not cost points to his team the way Lloris has for the last months (for club and country). Alas, Lloris is the French captain. You can’t dump him all of sudden and replace him with Ruffier who’s had only one cap and caused problems because he wanted to be the number one.
I’d say stay away from him if you manage a team, clean sheets will be hard to come by.
