TODAY IS THE DAY!
Betty's hot tipsDivision 1|||
America de Cali - Title odds 1/3 |||
The second big wage spenders and the devil's of the GW (see their badge), with Suarez and Ramos leading the way I'm fairly sure there will be no Xmas cards for this lot.
Star man: Suarez
Wonderkids: Todd Cantwell?
|||
Universidad de Chile - 4/1 |||
One of Sensible Soccer's finest recruits, Chris has already won out by drafting the original AMERICAN DREAM in Pulisic. While boasting a bonafide RAWK legend in Ricardo Quaresma.
Star man: Alisson
Wonderkids: Rodrygo, Martinelli
|||
Millonarios - 6/1 |||
Making the daring play of spending a whopping 40m on a keeper, Alex made some shrewd signings and stretchted the money out to create a squad both brimming with youth and with stars to help them remain competitive in the now.
Star man: Fabinho
Wonderkids: Hudson-Odoi, Lucien Agoume
|||
Bolivar - 8/1 |||
Originally believed to have accidentally picked a country rather than a club, it turns out Kesey was much smarter than all of us. His rivalry with Lawnmo's Earthquakes will surely be one of the highlights of the GW.
Star man: Ziyech
Wonderkids: Pedrinho, Leonidas Stergiou
|||
San Jose Earthquakes - 8/1 |||
Taking a far more balanced approach amidst the peer pressure big spending, Lawnmo has built a side of future stars ready to either take the step to the next level or into the abyss. Time will tell.
Star man: Werner
Wonderkids: Zaniolo, Myron Boadu
|||
CD Marathon - 20/1 |||
Sporting my favourite club badge in the whole GW, Rob has assembled a slow burner of a squad with players ready to rise to the next level in the coming seasons.
Star man: Lenglet
Wonderkids: Zagadou, Rice
|||
Guadalajara - 80/1 |||
A late arrival to the GW, Jon was finally persuaded to join after a bribing scandal involving a departed former manager by the name of Flippity Flopp. Jon set about building a side in his vision. Snapping up all the youth players we'd hoped to grab later. The utter bastard. With vast sums of money still in the bank, expect him to break hearts if the next Mbappe ever comes along.
Star man: Oyarzabal
Wonderkids: All of them! Harvey Elliot especially.
|||
Tigres UNAL - 100/1 |||
With a strategy of hoovering up all the best under 21 talents in world football, Mikey has built a team of tomorrow with cash aplenty for a xmas blow-out should he so desire.
Star man: Coman
Wonderkids: Haaland, Fati and pretty much the whole squad.
Division 2|||
Boca Juniors - 1/4 |||
The Galacticos of the Americas, Boca boast of a team of OAPs primed and ready to win promotion and rise to the top of the Gameworld. Watch out for Tevez and Villa's zimmerfra-gen pressing.
Star man: Pick any of about 8 players
Wonderkid: They have young players?
|||
Colo Colo - 5/1 |||
Throwing the gauntlet down with the Salah-Firmino-Sancho dream attack, manager Betty quickly realised that he had no money left for the rest of his team and has turned to walking dead Andres Iniesta to prop up his midfield.
Star man: Mo Salah
Wonderkids: Odegaard, Kangin Lee.
|||
The Strongest - 5/1 |||
Bolivia's finest bringing you the greatest u18s you've never heard of but wish you had. Led by Mbappe, Robertso Carlos, and the one-time love of Kesey's life Saul Niguez.
Star man: Mmmmbop
Wonderkids: Mount, Youssoufa Moukoko.
|||
Botafogo - 6/1 |||
Dubbed Virgil's children. KL built his side around our very own big man, with a smattering of wonderkids and some extreme splurges on future superstars Frenkie De Jong and Hakimi.
Star man: Van Dijk, who else
Wonderkids: Tonali, Ki-Jana Hoever.
|||
Newell's Old Boys - 15/1 |||
The dark horse's of the division. Manager Neil set out his stall early with a goalkeeper pick in round 1 - with echoes of POP's Bodo love - and gradually built a side that looks as much to the future as the present. One to watch.
Star man: Gnabry
Wonderkids: Aouar, Tomori.
