World Cup 2nd Group Phase Live Match Chat
Welcome to World Cup 2nd Group Phase Live Match Chat. We now enter into the second round of games and some of us will have got off to a flying start. Others not so much, but however you are doing we still encourage you to partake in the chat. We are sure there will be plenty to discuss that doesn’t always involve whether you should get assist points for a shot that was blocked or your striker really did touch the ball a la Kane before it went in. Predictor games, brackets, bets on the golden boot are all welcomed here. And yeah, even old school footy chat for those that who are just watching the games for fun and just want to talk about the Joga Bonito.
So that you have them to hand, we will post a screenshot of the substitution rules, transfer allotment, wildcard, boosters and of course we will have times and dates for all matches in this, the first of three group phases/rounds/fixtures or whatever you want to call it.

Good luck to most of you, but not all of you for this 2nd phase of fantasy World Cup!
Hey all! Hope you’re all enjoying the WC!
Looking at my team I’m thinking a defensive transfer might be wise but I’m also thinking that there seems a good chance Lukaku may be out so maybe it should be him who I move out.
Thinking Lukaku to Costa? Would love some input from anyone who has a moment!
Alright Rosco, Lukaku to Costa makes sense to me mate, doubt he’ll be risked.
Cheers Cookie! Yeah seems like the smart move! I’ll have a spare mil, any point in a cheeky hit?
Lukaku -> Costa is a good move
Forgot to make subs this morning, JRod and Mojica firmly on the bench!!! Great success, no need to wonder now how this game is going to end…
I warned you, bison grass is a heavy stuff 😆
I agree, never touching that stuff again, at least Finlandia keeps me within a floating distance of managing a fantasy team! When the all mighty FPL starts again, it’s Finlandia only policy!!! :woot:
That’s a sickner!! Think this means I’ll take too spot off you in this ML… for now…
That is an old data. I am on 73 now 🙂
Dammit!! We need more mini league banter! Makes it worthwhile!! I can feel you breathing down my neck!! 😉
Now I am stuck. Really have no idea what to do for tomorrow :cuss:
Just do nothing! 😉
Nah, might take another hit but too dodgy to waste the WC for what could be the strangest round so far. I am keeping it for the quarters when 8 teams will be eliminated after the round of 16 and we’ll have only 3 FT.
Ok I’ve made my changes for round 3!!! Great moves I must add! Good luck catching me now, thanks for talking me out of dropping it 😉
I’ll beat y’all come the end Rosco and you know it. Does that count as banter? 😉
Sure does! Bring it on!!
Thoughts on this WC draft? Any changes you would make?
Think I’d rather have Ronnie over Messi if you’re spending the big bucks! Like the rest!
Do you prefer this?
Forget Messi, Argentina has the plot, get Ronnie
Cheers. ML leader has Ronnie though and I need a differential. He won’t get much ball vs Iran
Or perhaps this?
Are you aware of the mayhem in the Argie camp?
No way! Does it revolve around Messi realizing he’s a grumpy little shit and he’ll never eclipse Ronnie on the worlds biggest stage!? 😉
I understand that you don’t think Messi is a good option. If he is switched to Ronaldo in all 3 drafts, which do you prefer?
Hey all any one thinking of using wc if not why not ???
Yeah Silvers thinking about it. Will have a proper look tomorrow but my gut is to use it.
Yes Cookie thinking of going for it , players will increase in price & some will be rested might go for it using players that are doing well & need to win.
I’m not too worried about price rises, Silvers, I think they’ll be minimal.
What does concern me is my 2 no-shows and 3 Belgians & 3 Uruguayians.
Depends on your team! If you have good team, why use it now? To gain advantage of the teams who still have something to play for? Yeah maybe, but if you already have Costa, James, Kimmich, I would think long and hard…
I’m thinking of dropping this WC fantasy, what’s the point, lost too many points already because of forgetting to subs James in… Blah… And I was doing so well too… ANGRY!!!!
Don’t be silly. The best part is yet to start 😉
Yeah man just drop it!! 😉
I am happy with my two transfers for round two. Lewa and Mueller out for Costa and Coutinho 🙂
Result!!
