WICKITY,

Looks like that win over Brazil set you off. I'm surprised you controlled the game against Spain. Well played.

RCKABILLYRAIDER,

Let's see that squad. Well done, so far, as well!

I'm currently playing as Porto. This is my squad . . .



Currently in first (not much of a surprise). I have Atletico Madrid in the 1st knockout round. We'll see how it goes.

Just to add.

Who would you start?

Current Starter:



Super Sub:



I'm anxious to see how Kadlec would play when starting. Lukaku does have the player ratings though.

Your squad looks to be in great form for you. Here's my current squad. Haven't made any acquisitions but I just let some players go. If I have a lead that I am trying to cling on to, I usually switch to a 4-1-3-2 and use my enforcer, Dema, as the CDM.

Holy hell, CR, Hulk and Lukaku?! That attack is freaking sick!

By BTW, if you need goals, go with the 16 year old. Kids finishing and composure are insane.

That's the way to do it. Keep it small and tight. I usually stick to 22-23 players. I do a little rotating to keep them fresh too. However, I think them performing better when 95+ is all in my mind. Haha. No actual study has been performed. What philosophy do you use with the 4-1-3-2?

Yeah, Kadlec has been a super sub, but I feel the same way you do. Difficult to bench Lukaku for him even though he's been under performing a bit. Lukaku is the future. This is my first time playing with all these youngsters. I had only played with Sandro and Annan before. Check out who will be arriving next year, he'll be another first for me.



However, in case you're wondering how I retrieved these players.



Some of the problems it has cost me . . .




Scary.

Well, I'm certain the board is not too pleased, but you should more than make up for that with the domination you will have in the league.

I'm curious, is Sandro the young Brazilian whose card you pictured? If so...I know a future target for myself
