OMG !!! This is history being written!

Holy s**t, Germany's devouring Brazil

However, I forgot to adjust my squad for this round so, most likely not many points for me ...

I have a stupid amount of points, but I didn't want to get them this way.

Is this really happening?

6??

Did Brazil's defence go on strike as a protest to FIFA corruption?

This is going to be one of those 'I remember where I was' things

1-7

I think the Germans did a mistake that raised the score so high against Brazil even they were obvious capable to do so

Indeed. And ninety-one points in one match for me. Would have been over a hundred if Oscar hadn't scored right at the end, wiping out the clean sheet bonuses.

Impressive scoring! Which puts you right back in the medal chase.

I called it totally wrong last night and ended up with a rather embarrassing 51pts, and slipped out of nose bleed territory.

But all is not lost.

Depending on team sheets, I may have 3 x ARG and 4 x NED strutting their stuff tonight. If it all goes to plan I'll be kicking out 19pts, switching the Alice band and reverting to a rather unfashionable 3-4-3.

It could work.

My idea to fill my team with defenders with one as captain only seems to work in low scoring games. 7-1!!!

Back to the drawing board.

aye, i got 83. which if i hadn't put luiz in as captain and stuck with kroos would have been much better.
now... do i take muller and his 13 points out and stick messi in, or not?

Don't take out 13pts. Look elsewhere (change of formation?) to get Messi in.

that worked. took hummel out, who only got 3 pts, put de vrij in. sorted!

You're welcome.

ARG team: Romero, Zabaleta, Demichelis, Garay, Rojo, Enzo Pérez, Biglia, Mascherano, Lavezzi, Messi, Higuaín

NED team:Cillessen; Kuijt, De Vrij, Vlaar, Martins Indi, Blind; De Jong, Sneijder, Wijnaldum; Robben, Van Persie

And, I'm taking a punt (kicking out 7pts) that RVP is not fit to last 90, so I'll go with the Mott the Hoople boy. To come on and do a Schürrle.

Sticking with my 433

Messi with the alice band this evening

No Federico FERNANDEZ

....
....

I've gone 3-4-3

Good call Jo.

5-4-1 was so passé. 3-4-3 is the new black.

Lavezzi is looking pretty dangerous this evening.

I thought that was "orange"

My sentiments entirely. And I'm not convinced my Cillessen for Neuer swop will pay dividends either.

Goths, innit.
