FF247 McDonald’s Fantasy Football World Cup Team

A 23 man squad? Rules that contradict themselves? A site we can’t trust to load up properly come transfer time? Players we have never heard of? Players valued at £1.0m? This all looks a bit odd… Must be World Cup time, bring it on, we love it!!!…. Welcome to our first ever World Cup ‘Rate My Team’ and to kick proceedings off FF247 has it’s very own fantasy team that is entering the competition!
The site address to enter is Mcdonalds Fantasy World Cup, you can register here. The official site league is called FF247 – simply enter this in the search bar on the league section and press JOIN!
Here is the FF247 team as it stands. FF247 welcomes suggestions and criticism aplenty but don’t be offended if you get it back! We jest, of course. Sort of. He has been known to bite though! FF247 himself will be around to discuss the team itself on this article thread and will take on board your thoughts and suggestions for changes ahead of the deadline on Thursday and there will be updates throughout the tournament as to the teams progress and hopefully thoughts on selection and strategies as it progresses.

And the subs…


This is by no means the final squad that FF247 will go into the competition with but rather an initial attempt at building a squad. A lot will depend on the feedback tomorrow and what is learnt from your own submissions and findings. The final squad will be published later in the week.
We also welcome your own Rate My Team posts on here as you begin to finalise those squads and starting line ups. Thoughts on formations, players or teams to watch, bargains, strategies or just whatever you want to post are welcome as always.

I think this Brasil team is not as good as previous teams.

I’ve been saying it since 1970, that team was the best ever.
Calvin Clyne
I don’t think it’s really possible to compare different generations due to the equipment available, training regimes, fitness levels etc, so taken into context then that 1970 team probably was the best. If you just played them directly against the 2002 team though I think Ronaldo, Ronaldinho and Rivaldo would have run rings around them.

Not even close!

I’ve gone double brazil at the back in the mirror. And it was only a last minute change to swap out marcelo for luiz.
