scottyboy Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 I managed to get past the captcha. My squad is a mainly random mix of Hondurans, Suarez and Balotelli, and as much of the England team as I could get away with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Is there an Abdn Music league on Twatball yet? My squad: Keeper: Donis EscobarDefenders: Glen Johnson, Pepe, Ramos, Alves (in retrospect I shouldn't have chosen those three, but I think they'll get a good number of bookings between them)Midfield: Fellaini, de Jong, Meireles and MascheranoStrikers: Higuain and Balotelli I'm not good at football.

Adam Easy Wishes Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 http://twatball.co.uk/page/group/47&plain=1 Not sure if this works but it is listed once you click on leagues. I have Eto'o, Dauda(Ghana keeper), Johnson, Corluka, Alnameh(Iran defender), Fellaini, Kone, De Jong, James(Aus MF), Rooney and Balotelli I've gone for a defence-heavy lineup full of mentals, hopefully: Ryan (AUS)Bougherra (ALG) - Luiz (BRA) - Ambrose (NIG) - Lugano (URU) - Bamba (CIV)Mascherano (ARG) - de Jong (NED) - Tiote (CIV) - Witsel (BEL)Balotelli (ITA) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyboy Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 (edited) It appears I am playing a revolutionary 5-1-4 formation and am in a strategic battle of wits with KarmaTsunami over which keeper Honduras actually play.. I'm hoping my defence will bleed goals and crash out with 0 points, the England players generate headlines by shagging each others wives or whatever, and that Suarez and Balotelli don't ruin it by scoring (skim reading the rules I thought it would be prudent to take only 1 forward; somehow I have 4). I don't really know what Evra is doing there. Edited June 3, 2014 by scottyboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain America Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Brazil scored some great goals last night but my god the play acting was torturous. They were looking for everything and rolling over about 6 times when they went down. Hope they knock some of that off in the actual tournament.

Chris Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Sweepstake at work and I got fucking Russia. Normally if you're going to get a team that's not going to win it you at least want one that you can enjoy supporting. But Russia!? Fuck's sake.

I don't really know what Evra is doing there. Let's just say I didn't really look, and am now hoping that Valladares gets injured in training.

Surfer_Rosa Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 My lads maintained their loss free streak of pre-WC friendlies against Greece last night. Also maintained their streak of no wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain America Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Just had to do a spreadsheet for the girlfriends work "Sweep" (I'm pretty sure they don't know what a sweep is) predicting every game in the WC. Apparently Spain are going to win it all. Breaking Brazilian hearts in the final. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain America Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Also did anyone choose Mexico because they are looking really good in the lead up to the tournament. Played some really nice stuff last night... https://vine.co/v/MpxQmlphbjL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain America Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Surprised Bosnia is still there. Reckon they'll get out of that group, Dzeko could even be in or around top scorer as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ca_gere Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 That's a good shout. I think they'll do well (famous last words). Dzeko is undoubtedly their talisman and sometimes a field of ok players + 1 great player boosts a team more than having a squad of good players and no standouts. Pjanic could be a breakout star too.
