The system sends you info before each deadline. When a player is suspended or injured, it informs you. But coaches hide many things from the media.
And keeping up with other nations than ours is a nightmare. And I needed to have some elements regarding Romania, Poland, Croatia... Russian players who don't play for StPetersburg... My goal for the first day is : 10 players on the pitch minimum, 2 subs max. Hope it works. And today we're eleven (and probably noone wanting to be the goalkeeper) : Ball in the Heather (nicfit) bolanarede (jico.) Bulldogs FC (Atari 2600) eurofauxhemians fc (PAULYBEE2656) FC Gangrape (GrungeMonkey) George Best's Liver (Bertrand) Glasgow Enculouz 2 (friend for outside the board) Los niños del parque (o o o) Obiku FC (pokkeherrie) ShongleFest (a human being possibly related to some Monkey) Tchernobyl Boys (HECKLER SPRAY) |

Dang, I was hoping I'd be the only one who had Pepe in the team.
Chech = clean sheet Pepe = goal scorer/clean sheet/man of the match So far I'm not complaining as far as fantasy football goes... ![]() But in the real world's football Robben's out for the game against the macaronis. That's a huge blow for Holland. To have a chance against the ever so solid Italian defence Holland will need speedy attackers that can dribble quickly past 1-2 defenders. Now Robben's out, his best replacement Babel already got injured last week and Van Persie isn't deemed fit enough to start either.... Maybe Affelay will get a starting place now; or Van der Vaart gets moved to the left to get a starting place for Kuyt on the right... or Van Basten will take the risk of starting with Van Persie after all. Either way, none of these are really ideal solutions I think. I'll be happy with a 0-0. |

Ironically I had pretty much written off Robben already, just like the majority of Dutch fans I'd imagine. He had barely played and when he played he was most of the time diving or wasting chances by being selfish.
But then he suddenly made a very strong impression in the pre-tournament warm-up games... so strong that he made it to my fantasy team. When I switched on the TV 5 minutes for the Switzerland-Czech Republic game and heard about his injury I immediately switched on the computer to transfer him out of my team. Because it was just for the dedline I picked the first midfielder I saw for the same price: Deco. If I'd had two minutes extra to look around before he deadline I would've picked the slightly cheaper Modric instead and upgrade Panucci to Zambrotta... damn. |

I had the same hesitations on Saturday before the deadline... I had Deco in my team but wanted to trade him for Robben, since he seemed more likely to score goals and seemed in good shape judging from the friendly games... then learned he would not play gainst Italy... then thought of trading Deco for Modric... but I did not know what to do with the extra 0,5 and eventually decided that I was tired of sitting in front of my laptop thinking on how to rearrange my team, so I kept Deco.
4 minutes into the game, I already regret it... |

pokkeherrie's up front with 58 points and more to come.
Don't panic anyone, it's a long way, miracles happen and so on. Austria didn't look as terrible as I thought they'd be. Croatia was disappointing. I only saw one half of the German game and they were smashing. |

I used my wildcard this round tp replace Smolarek with Modric. Originally they were both in my team, then when I had to pick one I chose Smolarek for the irrational reasons that I already had a Croat and Smolarek has played for Feyenoord in the past. When I looked at the actual fixtures yesterday and realised that Poland had to play Germany and Croatia played Austria I decided to swap them. Modric scored and Smolarek got a yellow card, so good move.
Haven't seen much of the games yet, only the first half of Switzerland-Czech Republic and then the highlights of the other games. Hopefully I can see some of the France-Romania game at work tonight and then go straight through to the pub for that other game. |

I'm not in this game, but just offtopic ... I LOVED to see the Oranjes beat Italians tonight! The Italians just could not stand a chance. They'd probably have missed even a penalty if they got the chance.

And this 3 goal difference might prove important at the end of the group phase... well, only perhaps.
I can still see France not conceding a goal to Holland in the next game, but judging from today's earlier match I have more trouble in imagining France scoring... Maybe a dubious penalty kick will do. In any case, the next games in this group should still be interesting. Obiku FC is ranked 22 out of 339,558 players! |
