World Cup Quarter Finals Live Match Chat
Welcome to World Cup Quarter Finals Live Match Chat. And then there were eight. Well, England plus another seven 😉 Some surprises along the way mixed with some familiar names progressing sees us arrive at the quarter-final stage with everything to play for. Like any tournament the continued presence of the home nation is generally seen as a positive, except by Spain of course who have already departed for the more familiar surroundings of Costa Blanca. We have also waved goodbye to Messi and Ronaldo and a new superstar has been born in Mbappe.
Sadly we said farewell to the gallant Japanese but with England facing Sweden, expectations continue to reach epic proportions. It’s coming home. Isn’t it?! Ah c’mon, let us dream!
We have the next two days off until we reconvene on Friday, so plenty of time to think over plans and transfers. Is it time to play a Chip or have they been utilised/wasted already?!
From a fantasy point of view we have 3 free transfers for this round and we can now own a maximum of five players from any one team.

Hi Guys,
PRMT.
Shall I play wild card ? If I play WC, can I use BB chip on top of that ?
Otherwise which 3 transfers to go for ?
Hi Lamps, yes I believe you can use both at once. I’d be 50/50 as to whether to play it I think. Can you get who you want without doing so? The flip side is you get 5 transfers in each of the next 2 rounds which may be sufficient in itself so using it now may be more beneficial.
thanks Initt.
I want to bring in Kane and need to shuffle my defense. So, I think I should use it.
Sounds wise to use it then.
Come on guys, what’s your best goal so far? My mine’s Uruguay, long distance pinging is a rarity these days.
Eric Dier’s penalty last night
Well yes, understandable
That’s a trade mark goal for Cavani and surely a beauty but not the best we’ve seen imo. The best was Quaresmas’ vs Iran (no bias, I swear) or Ronaldo’s FK vs Spain (no bias either). There’s also Messi’s vs Nigeria. He makes it look easy but that’s far from it and surely much difficult to do than Cavani’s.
What about Pavard’s goal? No bias either
Pavard’s and Nacho’s also fantastic efforts. The technique and the timing also help. Top 10 for sure.
😉
Mbappe OR Griezmann ?
Mbappe looked on fire but they won’t get that space against Uruguay. I think Griezmann just edges it due to pen duty.
Agree!!
It’s on!!
It’s over 😉
Hahaha probably!!
Rosco check out Potty’s twitter feed, looks like we both made the quarters.
PRMT.
On WC and BB activated too. Thanks
Lampard,
I’ll be honest I haven’t really looked at players or indeed team set up for the next round and beyond as yet.
However it seems you have very good general coverage.
Cheryshev may not start. Otherwise good
Mbappe and Lingard or Hazard and Golovin?
First two are more likely to get through but I think Haz and Golovin could score higher. Main ML rival (I’m 10 points ahead) owns Hazard
Haz and Golovin for me.
Cheers
