Subject: [NT] Vs Colombia WC Finals

I am currently formulating a tactic to try and create a win from the team we have available. We are still badly hit by injuries and so far this season we have averaged at least 5 injuries, this has hit many players and form wise we are very low in the strikers department because of it. Last week was a real disappointment but I hope to put that right this week.

good luck mate, hope you can manage a win :D

So do I. ;)

Bit fed up with the injuries to our best players this season though, I hope they clear up soon. :/

yeah i hope so too, if we can manage a win though and argentina beat russia then we'd be in a strong position for 2nd :)

Well I have set a totally new tactic and I hope it gives us a fair chance. I was disappointed last week and hope that I get out of what I have put into this weeks game.

We are still without out best defender in Goater and miss the best Keeper in Leggett. My main worry is scoring with low form in our forwards we are giving away 500k in value to their in-form forwards which is going to be tough.

Without meaning to sound like a whinger the injuries this year have really shown our lack of depth up, we really do not have any depth and form is such a massive key to NT Players, Colombia will be choosing 15 players in Divine form virtually and they are a really strong NT. Bromage for example was a massive player for us last season when we beat Brazil twice, he got injured and now sits on solid form only and is unusable. :(

I have done my best tonight though and hope that we might cause an upset. :)

the striker problem will be solved in a few seasons ;) it seems you will have quite the struggle, but hopefully our luck will balance out after last week, and we'll get a decent result ;)

We were outplayed last week in honesty, I hope this week my tactic is better.

I watched this match, and if you have heart problems I don't recommend you do.

WHAT A GAME! Really exciting, and the result was deserved, but, dare I say, England could have won.
Still, 5-5, an instant classic! 2 goals in the last 2 minutes!

COME ON ENGLAND!

Ridiculous game, drew 5-5. Could have gone either way, I managed somehow after being so careful to mess up a sub. :/

We are seriously up against it now to qualify, we were by far the better side in the first half imo and 2nd half it went awfully.....

Classic game indeed. :)

Tactically we were better setup imo and the headers they won in the area saved the game for them imo.....they had more shots by 3 but to me it felt like we were the more dangerous?

I was just going to ask about the sub:

# 10. R. Blunsden
# (61' J. Gelder)
# (73' S. Dent)

I guess you wanted Dent to enter in the place of another play buth added in the box a wrong nr?!

Great win for the team. Do you reckon that we can get a win against Russia next week. We have got a few players coming back in a few days though like Anton Wanlace

Yes, we will win! russia are not as good as columbia, but still good.

Russia is definitely weaker than Colombia, plus squad issues, so you start as a clear favorite.

that's a decent result, colombia and england wins next week would see us in to 2nd :)

Argentina are quality too though and could easily pick a pointup next week which will see us go out unless we give Russia a spanking....thats unlikely though imo. Both Russia and us a need a win though.
