Stocke Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 He's a bit old at this stage so I'm worried he might retire from internationals soon but regardless I'll go for Hamšík, I can't really afford to not snap up a central midfielder of his talents (also, hopefully this will allow Gaber to move back to right-back, he was pretty brilliant there) I was wondering why Oblak wasn't in the Slovakia team but then I realized he's Slovenian, oops Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a reminder that those who have to select a player have 24 hours to do so. A lot of Goalkeepers have been lost through the game so I was wondering if everyone would be happy with slightly altering the rules so if you lose you lose your worst rated outfield player? Although this would be a bit unfair on those who have already lost a gk earlier I am open to any suggestions... The next round will be the Confederations Cup so only Russia, Mexico and Australia will be featured. I think I will post it in 2 parts so the first part will be the group stage and then the semis and final (If any of those nations make it of course..)

Although this would be a bit unfair on those who have already lost a gk earlier I am open to any suggestions... Been following for a while and enjoying. I think a better option would be for draw best rated players swap and for a loss you lose your best player. Generally if you lose it will be a defender or GK that gets the worst rating, but any position can get the best rating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muttley84 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 After loosing 2 (TWO) goalkeepers I agree that sucks, but have no preference whatsoever about changing the rules or not. Now I've also lost my main AMC, so things are not looking good for Romania. @Weiry - glad that you gambled on picking from Portugal a new uprising teen prospect like that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tastaiwan Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 I don't like losing our best player, I've lost every game but the first and the hole I'm in would be even deeper if we lost our best rated player every time. Having lost a few goalkeepers, I don't think any new ruling would help me there. Can we grant immunity to players 21 or younger so we don't just lose all our youth prospects?

Joe. Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 How about the three lowest rated players for the game get put up for losing, then the person selects which one they'd be willing to lose.
