Team InGerrLand (former GerEngTaly)

Euro2008 Qualifiers started 2 weeks ago. But the games didn't create too much of a buzz that I thought tonight's games were the first batch for the event. Apparently, I was wrong. I even thought England was going to start it all out tonight. But nope, 2 other games precede the England-Andorra match. (But how come tonight's called 'Matchday 1'?) Anyway, the point of this post is to say that another Fantasy Football comes to life. I actually like this better than the World Cup and EPL Fantasies for several reasons:

1. Better graphics.
2. UNLIMITED transfers.
3. Wider pool of players.
4. UNLIMITED transfers...
5. UNLIMITED TRANSFERS!!!

But there's one thing that sucks about it. The limited money to spend. I mean, two with the second one being, an England player costing 7 euros, which means I can only have Lampard on my team. Otherwise, a player or two in my team would have to come from Timbuktu. At least I have fairly decent represented countries in my team. Scotland, England, Ireland (where's Wales?), Germany, Italy Spain, Finland, and Norway.

Because games officially start (for me) tonight, I was quick in creating my own team. Presenting Team InGerrLand. The Scottish Smith defends Ingerrlands post from 'opponents' while Irish, Dutch and Finnish players join Italy's Fabio Cannavaro in assisting Smith. In the midfield, favorite Lampard cooperates with another Irish and Finnish players to keep the ball on the team's side. Schweinsteiger also plays in the midfield. All four run, tackle, and then pass to any of the strikers- La Liga's Fernando Torres, World Cup's Golden Shoe Awardee Bundesliga's Miroslav Klose and Serie A's Luca Toni- to score. And then the squad is complete.

The numbers under the names are the cost of each player.


PS1 I want to join the EnglandFan club. But it's bloody (haha) expensive.
PS2 I'm still frustrated how we don't have football kits here of England, Chelsea and Liverpool. Nike has but they're not what I'm looking for. Crap this.
