🐳Whale.io⚽ Cross League Goal Madness ⚽ Discussion Thread

[leea-1334]

If im not wrong fM is gonna win this round thanks to his six team pick which was elche who allow 0 goals and in a twisterd turn take out the win from El che who was the only one who got a correct pick on Betis which score 5 goals in this round.
...

Yeah he sure did! Congrats fM, picking Elche as your 6th team was a great call. I was convinced Fiorentina would keep it tight at the back but after conceding 2 goals in the first 15 minutes I thought I was going to get completely blown out. Fortunately they managed to keep it capped at just 2. Betis really came through for me though especially after I skipped Chelsea, I needed that from Betis to save my round and keep me at the top. On to the next one!

And I was the really unlucky guy who picked Fiorentina also,,, this team was in Champions League not so long ago right? And then I think also Italian team and an old name sure 1 goal max, but we are both lucky they conceded early and then kept it 'clean'.

Crazy goals from La Liga honestly, something I could not expect. Another bad round for me and I am beginning to get why Madness is the name of this game

I agree about the randomness of the round, I even had to think a bit before making my picks. With the return of club football, the thrill is back, too - I’ve made a couple of risky picks, plus one that definitely won’t please buwaytress if it comes off 
I still can't get used to the fact that we don't have the usual teams like Atlético or Villarreal in the opening rounds, let alone Bayern.

I can only salute your daring, and rue my own misplaced belief in my team. Iraola was without some important personnel and he might take some small comfort that we were doing well until the sending off, but he should know better against Haaland and co.

Agree on Villareal and Atleti -- especially since the latter was a source of points last season but I have a feeling they might pull off some magic vs United (and my yet-to-be-placed bets are on them too!).

Well it seems like fM and elche are killing the competition in this start. Another fantastic round for them and starting to build a gap in front, lets see if we can follow them and also cut their wins in the next round.

Congratulations to famososMuertos for winning this round.


It was a strange round in some things, for example Coventry was not a bad pick as six team allowing only one goal from Newcastle. Betis scoring 5 also was not in the books of anyone.

Italian football is evolving and seems like the era of low scoring is not longer with us in some way.

There’s a touch of bitterness, since that daring earned me just 10 points (thanks to leaky Fulham) and 10th place for the time being.
And in fact, I was not greedy enough where I should have been, instead of making a normal cash bet, I made a cautious one.

A simple bet on City with a -1 handicap would probably have offered better odds.
I agree about Atlético and United, unfortunately, that is the status quo right now. I don't think any miracles will be needed for a win, but I'm hoping for at least a draw. I remember in the first rounds I wrote that United was one and a half times stronger than Liverpool (based on the number of points), well now the situation has turned symmetrically

I assume Barcelona should be there instead of Monaco?

No, the new rules has been apllied  for the first time, Barcelona score 3+ goals in 3 consecutive games so they are gonna sit out for two rounds.

Monaco is the actual leader of Ligue1 so they are gonna have  chance here for two rounds. Lets see if anyone pick them.

Great bet man, some high odds for Freiburg i think they have real value there. But is a team i dont trust so much.

No research, just happy to see Barcelona taken out and I like this rule by the way it means more random or at least more different picks for all of us 

Italian football is evolving and seems like the era of low scoring is not longer with us in some way.

Which makes me puzzled the way they are doing in international football. But maybe it needs to make this era of change to make themselves more competitive,,, I just cannot help a bad feeling that they are heading on a spiral down towards like Greek football.

Im not super sure about if we are gonna be a better distribution of teams after taking out Barcelona, it could happen that the second and third most selected teams are gonna be much more selected and becomes the new "barcelona" but yes it could be a good thing and i hope it is and it works and prevent to see always the same picks.

About the italian football..... what can i say the national team is a coin in the air every single year, they can be "good" and super bad in just a few months, for example this team was a complete disaster and out of the WC just a year ago but right now they draw against the super France......

[buwaytress]

Sent my answers in a bit too early (was planning to leave the selections and just save the form but accidentally submitted) but maybe that's better for me. I picked Monaco right away (see guys, I'm so kind, telling you without reservation what my picks are, but I know you'll ignore) and sprinkled some funky choices in there. Brentford look ripe for the picking but I really dislike seeing some favourite teams in this list as my finger homes in on them with the mouse pointer.

Liverpool, Villa scoring 6 goals each tonight. What about that? English relegation place occupiers romping around in European competition.

Gracias!(Ty)

Spanish is being spoken at the top of this Locura league, anyway it’s "buenas vibras" to be sharing the lead with you! Sending double the good vibes to @el che; and to the "other" "EL Che" as well what a curious situation! Anyway, two out of three—a good start... but there’s a long way to go.

[slaman29]

Well done to some special guy tho who only got 4 points 

I swear, I don't even have to look who the special one is.

I bet even the special one didn't realize he is the special one until someone mentions it

If im not wrong fM is gonna win this round thanks to his six team pick which was elche who allow 0 goals and in a twisterd turn take out the win from El che who was the only one who got a correct pick on Betis which score 5 goals in this round.

And in a special twisted way he did so well he forgot to send his RTG questions that helped his team give an easy victory to their opponents. MADNESS!

Ah OK, I had no idea that was even in the rules
I like it, makes selections even more difficult - and these few early rounds are a total mess even without losing certain picks.

Barca is away to Betis and then at home against Real in the next round. Would not be a certain pick anyway.

Well,,, I guess we will find out anyway I have to admit my natural selections are very bad and in a way good to see the teams I like are not often featured in this pool,,, well forget Fiorentina  

About Italy, I ignore everything there is in Nations League. Only trust World Cup and Euro,,, I think the problem with them is they understand big teams very well but have zero research into 'smaller' teams, hence they can lose to teams like Bosnia for example.

Yes fixture didnt help us on that one, anyways Barcelona could score a lot against Betis despite Betis is a strong team in defense in their home for domestic league we all saw what happened yesterday they allow two goals from Porto in Champions League.

For me until now the most crazy one is Mainz, they are just one more game of scoring  3 goals of being banned..... a complete madness, i was never expecting that. Is the Cinderella of the madness right now
