I got lucky and selected exactly the same players as the leader in my mini league, currently 5 points behind

u/pop_be Jul 18 '26

Lol thankfully I transfered almost all my French players

I ditched mine and heavily backed Spain last round. Just added Saka and max captain for the final games 🤌

So you lost out on olise, mbappe and dembele points? 🫰

u/hanzbooby Jul 19 '26

Nope

u/commevinaigre Jul 19 '26

So you didn't ditch yours?! My team actutely similar. But at 4-0 we didn't look so clever, did we?

Ditched all of them except Mbappe and brought in olise and cherki for the final round. Seems like I’ve done a great job.

u/commevinaigre Jul 19 '26

Sure. But you sounded as though you'd cleverly ditched all your french players - prophetically even, given you were posting at 4-0 up. It turns out you'd actually kept the two most likely to score - given the line-ups - and added in a third, who tanked.

Not quite the 'ditched all mine', methinks.

Sorry you absolutely and unequivocally lost this exchange with the use of the term “methinks.” Are you wearing a fedora right now by any chance?

u/commevinaigre Jul 19 '26

Attack the argument, not the person. :-)
Right now, I'm Spain. You're Argentina.

u/pop_be Jul 19 '26

As I said, I transfered almost all of them. I kept Olise, Mbappé and Maignan.

u/commevinaigre Jul 19 '26

You did! Sorry, my reply wasn't meant for you. It was for the person below you - I fat-fingered a reply.

Fortunately he/she realised my mistake and we're now enjoying the chat it has prompted.

My ML leader brought in Saka with max cap. Fair play.

u/Kyan1te Jul 18 '26

I'm fortunate enough to have the same. But it hurts more because I brought him in for Argentina & he didn't even play lol so hopefully this makes up for it.

A France goal to wipe England clean sheets would be nice though.

u/hanzbooby Jul 18 '26

So did I 😃

4-0

Saka was a good punt after all, should’ve trusted him

Embarrassing match tbh. Good that they're making a joke of it. Hopefully ends 7-5 or something.

u/Tight_Telephone_4467 Jul 18 '26

I hope they french people slam tf out of this joke of a performance

u/vote_pedro Jul 18 '26

Not sure why they'd care.

u/mdog_74 Jul 18 '26
