    I noticed Mr 1984 is going to be short whatever happens.


    Ah......

    Thats what you think. It will cost me 10pts max doing it my way but make me 40pts + extra.

    I have put my money on Spain, [STRIKE]Portgual[/STRIKE], Brazil, Germany or Argentina Final.

    Either way I think it can be covered enough out of them 5 quite well.

    To cover all that 100% you would need a minimum of 6 subs.


    I have 3 Args, 3 German (1 team through to semi-final) & 3 Brazilians, 1 Spanish, 1 Portuguese (all the highest point earners) with 3 subs to use to make up for the drop of [STRIKE]either Germany or Argentina[/STRIKE] Germany.

    I like my position. Unlike wasting a go on Uruguay or Ghana where anything can happen...


    I am done mate. Collecting my points on the way. Not just on the final... ;)

    TBH I was thinking what is best having a full team at the end or just changing a player for most games trying to find the MOM.

    I know I should have done that on the easy games in the last round.
