You can't select new players for the round of 16? Half my defense is already knocked out :confused:

You can, but there's not enough cheap players left to easily complete your 23 man squad so you just get frustrated and close the page.

I think you can select players who have already been knocked out if you want to go that way

Yes, you can.

Ewan is tired of his reputation as a serious Simon. I'm more of a jokester than you people think. My real name isn't even Ewan, that was a joke it's actually MARTIN! LOL fooled you again, it really is Ewan! Look at that monkey with a big nose, Ewan is so random! XD
I've managed to put together a decent well-rounded team with Benzema and Neymar, so I don't get why people are moaning about not having enough money to put a team together. I've only got 3 x 1million players, and they are all high points scorers. You get unlimited transfers so you may as well take everyone out and start from scratch.

I'm 8th (ewliin), so hoping to slowly get up the ladder, although a 55 point deficit is pretty difficult.

16th place because I forgot to have muller as my captain like 3 times and missed out on a ton of points, rip.


Also because I'm garbage.

They really did. Midfielders, on the other hand, were pretty much useless.

4th is cool and good, I would've probably been in contention if not for my abysmal first round tbh

Defensive midfielders were pretty good (particularly because they were often undervalued (hello, Luiz Gustavo)). They basically tried to factor in and weigh the defensive stuff like recovering balls and blocking shots and such but it went the other way because a) those guys were getting those points reliably while attacking guys needed assists/goals to be worth anything at all so there was a boom/bust element and b) they weighed the defensive stuff too strongly so you didn't want to even try to bet on the boom. Also the substitution thing was retarded

I went 5-4-1/5-3-2, picked the right players a lot and had a lot of germans. Ended up 504 in the world (I was 63rd at one point in the group stages).

The subsititution thing was ridiculous. It rewarded you just being around a lot and 90% of the things you were doing were just obvious bookkeeping.

But it was worth it to overcome spiffehs vicious mind games and win the TRP World Cup. I will print out the trophy I just won and display it with pride.
