World Cup Dugout Discussion – Matchday One

The wait is over. The World Cup kicks off with the host nation, Brazil, facing up to regular dark horses, Croatia.

The tournament favourites lineup as expected, with the likes of David Luiz, Oscar and Paulinho the familiar names alongside Neymar – the Barcelona starlet sports the armband for Fantasy managers far and wide this evening.

The Croatians have the talent to ensure that tonight’s opener will be a cracker, although the loss of striker Mario Mandžukić to suspension for their first group match is a major blow. Hull City’s Nikica Jelavic leads the line for European side, while Šime Vrsaljko is perhaps the surprise inclusion in their lineup as Danijel Pranjić drops to the bench to make way.

Brazil: Julio Cesar, Dani Alves, Thiago Silva, Luiz, Marcelo, Paulinho, Gustavo, Hulk, Oscar, Neymar, Fred.

Croatia: Pletikosa, Srna, Corluka, Lovren, Vrsaljko, Modric, Rakitic, Perisic, Kovacic, Olic, Jelavic.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      There should be a Option while changing Formation during a Round. suppose my 1st formation was 442. n now i want to change it to 343.. so in that case i must have an option so change my 1 Def. who didn't perform WRT to my choice.. But it shows.. Changing formation, U will lose points.. of ur current player..
      IS it Automatic that the lowest scoring player will be changed???

        The simplest thing is just to have it so the formation is determined by the players you bring on - just let players sub off a defender for a midfielder and have the formation change automatically.

        Probably a good idea if you are feeling brave to rejig your team so the first 11 are lined up in order of the games. ie in order of when they are playing from left to right with the right hand side players last to play.

        I'm not risking it though!

          IF you SWAP your formation, i.e went to the extreme 4-5-1 (!) you could LOSE NEYMAR, as I have done in a test account, he's now locked for the round, he was the captain too, and it doesn't give you any choice to lock in a player before you take any action.

          I think it's better to leave formation as you were!

        They have changed their style of play, far more defensive.
        And if you saw them in U21 Euros, they aren't that bad. Won't concede more than one goal, IMO.

        In case you missed this earlier

        McDoughnuts...

        IF you SWAP your formation, i.e went to the extreme 4-5-1 (!) you could LOSE NEYMAR, as I have done in a test account, he's now locked for the round, he was the captain too, and it doesn't give you any choice to lock in a player before you take any action.

        I think it's better to leave formation as you were!

      Calling all World Cup game mini-league organisers.

      I'm looking to give a mention in this weekend's community round up for any mini leagues. Ideally I need them by 4pm today to include.

      Obviously some games are taking a while to sort their points out (EG Fox's clean sheet for Brazil). But if you can email a paragraph over with the current league leader (even if the pts are currently skewed) and a link that'll be great. If a H2H just a couple of key match ups would be good.

      Cheers

        Hi Jonty,

        I'm running a McDonalds FIFA World Cup Charity League. The aim is to raise funds and awareness for 'TASK Brasil' whilst we play our beloved fantasy football this summer.

        TASK Brazil, which stands for 'The Abandoned Street Kids of Brazil', is a registered charity that does work on the ground in Brazil to give hope, a future, and a life, to abandoned children through education and support.

        The winner will not only receive the 'prestigious' title of becoming the World Cup 2014 Charity League Champion, but they will also receive a special personalised World Cup winning mug. I received one of these winning mugs for winning the FPL last season, and I can vouch that it is a special prize, and it makes great brews too!

        The league is called: WC Charity League

        No password is needed.

        Everybody is welcome.

        More details on how to donate to TASK Brasil is found on my Just Giving page: https://www.justgiving.com/Matthew-Martyniak1

        Also details are on my @spiderm4tt Twitter account.

        Hope to see you all there.

        Matt 🙂

        It doesn't work (not in McD) had 3-5-2 formation in test account, swapped out one of the players and went to 4-5-1, and it cleared all forwards. It doesn't give you any option to lock in a player before you make any formation changes.

            My rule for UCL was always stick if there is a minimum of 1 goal 1 assist. Even if I twist with Sanchez, Ronaldo and Messi I don't see more than 2 goals by any of them. Not worth the risk IMO.

      OK. Just performed a test on Maccy D's

      Basically take out the starting player you want to remove

      Then change formation

      Accept what it says

      Then it leaves the new spot in the position free for you to add the new player
