Fantasy World Cup Live Match Chat Day 4

Oh yeah baby, Sunday’s don’t get any better than this. Not only is it the last day of the US Open golf, but it’s also the Lord’s Test match. Oh and we have some T20 action to enjoy. And……wait for it…..four, yes four World Cup games! Get in there.
Our day starts early, at 2am at Yaya’s Ivory Coast take on Kagawa’s Japan. Then you sleep and tell your partner to wake you up around midday. Go enjoy a lovely Sunday lunch and be ready for 5pm at the Swiss take on Ecuador….obviously not that exciting a game, but it’s just the build up to the evening. 8pm sees France take on Honduras and many of you will be looking to the likes of Benzema or Cabaye to produce a decent point’s tally for your side.
If you’re still awake – and you should be, you slept all morning, its the Argies – Messi, Aguero, Higuain, di Maria et al taking on the Bosnians. Get through this game still awake and you’d have had one hell of a 24hrs!
Sit back, relax and enjoy the action right here at FF247 Live Match Chat, an interactive chat which encourages you to keep involved and share your thoughts and emotions as the matches take place.

Any one else have cuadrado (Colombia …. Hope I have spelt that right)? I have him as captain & yesterday he was showing 28pts, today 14pts.
Kop Warrior
Seren – You sure he’s still down as your captain?
NIN
It’s yet another glitch. My (c) is Messi he’s only got 11 instead of 22. This game is complete shite, if it wasn’t for Potty’s comp i’d have quit by now. Literally the worst FF game ever.
Calvin Clyne
Heard tell of some people having the same issue with Neymar, 28 to 14. He’s still got 28 for me though so imagine yours should sort itself out after a bit. This game eh?!
serendipity
Thanks all. I was hoping it was a glitch that would be reversed. He is def. marked as captain in blue. I just keep telling myself it’s only a game :rant:

Hi Seren. I’ve got the same problem with the same player as you.

It will be fixed though, as the breakdown of his points add up to 14, so 28 when the issue is fixed.
wolf pack
Iran: Haghighi; Montazeri, Hosseini, Sadeghi, Pouladi; Heydari, Nekounam, Teymourian, Hajsafi; Dejagah; Ghoochannejhad.
Nigeria: Enyeama; Ambrose, Omeruo, Oboabona, Oshaniwa; Onazi, Mikel; Musa, Azeez, Moses; Emenike.
Calvin Clyne
Thanks wolfie. So Heydari is in midfield and is a striker in the McD ‘game’. That’s a positive thing right? More chances of blocks and what-not. Okazaki (3 points) -> Heydari then, but I just don’t trust the site enough to change formation so Montazeri will be staying on the bench

Thats news to me mate – i read last night that he’s their right back! Happy either way i guess. If they’re not scoring goals (which i doubt they will be), then he might as well be getting in the way of nigerian shots.
TheDreamers
Lads worth playing the Iran goalkeeper instead of Cesar (6 points)? Leaning towards “no”
Calvin Clyne
If he’s starting I’d be tempted to Dreamers. 3 points minimum for playing the game and then the possible shots saved and clean sheet, not a bad free shot at more points and you only stand to lose 3 points unless there’s a massacre or he gets a card.
Only worry is about whether you can get Cesar back in for GW2 or not. I’m hoping the GW2 tab becomes available soon!
TheDreamers
Cheers Calvin – missed the window so will see after if right or wrong I guess

Sunderland have signed Costel Pantilimon
TheDreamers
weird in one sense – who will be first choice now?
chins and bellies
Thats really odd. 3 good keepers. Surely one go? Mannone only just arrived too.
TheDreamers
they left Westwood go
brookyboy
Hmmmm really want to take Fred out and change formation but daren’t as i’m scared i’ll lose Messi who is the right hand striker on my current 3-4-3 formation.If i take fred out first then change formation will it work or is it not worth the gamble ?????
Mutley
It will remove the furthest player on the right i believe, i would stick if i were you, unless anyone can tell us if this glitch has been fixed
Josh721
brookyboy, If you take out Fred, you can only replace him with another forward. If you switch formation from a 3-4-3 to a 4-4-2 or whatever, you will lose whoever is the furthest forward on the right, regardless if Fred is still in your team or not. Basically, you would lose 2 forwards. It’s stupid I know, but that’s how it works out. I explained this a few days ago but I guess no one bothered to read it 😉 hahaha. https://fantasyfootball247.co.uk/fantasy-world-cup-live-match-chat-day-2/comment-page-3/#comment-74911

Brooky, don’t do it, the shite site will take Messi out, i did it yesterday, took the forward out changed formation + Neymar (c) dissappeared out the team, so in theory it took 2 forwards out, tw*ts.
brookyboy
Ok thanks guys.Guess i’ll stick with Fred and his measley 4 points.What a farce !! ha ha
elleffcee (ex champ with a potty prize)
Brooky, you ain’t joking, only 4 years to the next WC, wonder if they will sort it.
Calvin Clyne
Josh you seem to have it sussed mate. My midfield reads:
Rodriguez, Busquets, Lahm, Di Maria, in that order.
I have a 3-4-3. If I change to a 4-3-3 I should do so before I make any substitution right? And then it will remove Di Maria and open up a new defender slot? FOR SURE?
Calvin Clyne
Ok you’re off the spot Joshy boy
Bit the bullet and changed formation, and it was indeed Di Maria, the furthest mid to the right, that was relegated to the bench. Go Iran!
elleffcee (ex champ with a potty prize)
Shite Site should just not have a formation change tab, that would have solved everyones problems.
Calvin Clyne
Indeed. Would it have been so hard for the formation to just automatically change if you remove a midfielder and replace him with a defender?!
Josh721
Glad to see you’ve worked it out Calvin! It would have been nice if they changed the formation automatically.
TheDreamers
I can see my subs points now which is new so maybe they continue to work on it.
Josh721
They do that so you can hate yourself when you see those players with more points than the ones in your main 11 😉
