Spain don't attack, they have possession and just wear teams down with it, once they have a goal they're perfectly content just to sit there passing it around for whats left and do absolutely fuck all, its tedious viewing I agree that the matches are tedious, but it's only partly Spain's fault. Opponents play with fear and park the bus, so every match is like this - although Croatia weren't as bad. They're just passing it around to lure their defenders away because it's so difficult to break down these tactics. They keep finding a way though.

Spain aren't boring, it's playing against 8 defenders in every match that's boring. Put them against a team that wants to play and it'll be a beautiful game.

Iniesta, Silva ©, Alba and Cabaye tonight. Its just nice to know my captain is playing tonight!

Any team news for tonight yet? I wonder if Del Bosque plans on pulling a Jogi on us.

McDonalds team is doing really well because it has Ozil and Boateng, but this one? Nah, this is an embarassing night.

I wouldnt mind Sahin, like. After the last year it doesnt seem unrealistic anymore.

I call it meta-giggs.

Made Gomez captain today and of course i cant change again now. The whole thing is a sham....i'm flipping random tables over as we speak. Look at me, look at me, I'm rotating my squad. Pathetic!

That one day - if your dreams come true - you'll get out of there.

Why take so many risks in a quarter final? Even if its only Greece, it just isnt right. (And yes, it'd also completely fuck up my fantasy team!)

I bet their eyes lit up when they saw 'versatile' and 'free' though.

Ronaldo was captain tonight so I roared when that goal went in. Pereira clean sheet, Pilar played....the match. Although we probably all have the same players now!

Who did the cross?

Ronaldo scoring? Didn't see that coming...

I'd not go any higher than £9.5m tbh. I wonder what our limit is.

Iniesta mentioned Newcastle, Xavi loves SJP....we've made it!!!

That face!

Oh aye, I forgot I was psychic. What a tool!

Oh aye. She's nice.

I forget how we normally cope without football between weekends.

SKY team: Neuer; Hummels, Alba, Pereira, Johnson; Cabaye, Silva, Pilar; Ronaldo, Gomez, Podolski McDonalds team: Rui Patricio, Chalkias Lescott, Hummels, Boateng, Alba, Maniatis Ozil, Iniesta, Pirlo, Hubschman, Darida Ronaldo, Torres, Podolski

N-O night out to celebrate? After all, this is a day we thought would never arrive.

Any good? Well he was good for me in the not-at-all-fictional world of FM.
