Anniversary Tournament Preview Group C

Group C

Tyke

Teams: Sandnes ULF (Norway) & Spain

Odds: 6 – 1

Previous spin-off tournament appearances: Winner

Favourite Tournament Moment: Winning my first ever title at Christmas

Worst Tournament Moment: Finishing bottom in the Irish tournament

Fans View: Can’t wait for the group stages, the knock-outs will be short and painful though!

The current reigning spin-off champion has been greeted with a 5 star team and a 1 star team so this represents a bit of dilemma. Should I go for one star team and qualify, then I have the best team in the world to see me through the knock-outs, but then this could backfire and be another humiliating group stage exit. Currently swinging towards using Spain in the group-stages which would mean a likely quarter-final exit.

Verdict: quarter-final

Ludy

Teams: Porto Alegre (Brazil) & SK Brann (Norway)

Odds: 11 – 1

Previous spin-off tournament appearances: N/A

Favourite Tournament Moment: Finally progressing outta the groups in the League 2 tournament

Worst Tournament Moment: The constant group-stage exits

Fans View: It all hinges on that Hengy game to see if Ludy can steal a third-place finish.

Group-stage exit specialist Ludy can look at this group and be looking to progress. Whilst Tyke should top this group with Spain, Henry and Hengy are not so lucky with their teams. However I think Ludy will find some way to snatch defeat from victory like he always does.
Verdict: Group-Stages

Henry

Teams: Cagliari & Yeovil

Odds: 9 – 1

Previous spin-off tournament appearances: N/A

Favourite Tournament Moment: Progressing in his first tournament

Worst Tournament Moment: The inconsistent results

Fans View: Why did we get drawn a joke team like Yeovil? They are nothing compared to Arsenal!

Henry should be looking to secure second in this group with a decent-ish team in Cagliari then it will be on to the knock-outs with Yeovil where he will hope to meet some of the similar starred teams who could potentially be in that draw.

Verdict: quarter-finals

Hengy

Teams: Lille & Orlando Pirates

Odds: 10 – 1

Previous spin-off tournament appearances: Group-Stages

Favourite Tournament Moment: Not finishing bottom in La Liga

Worst Tournament Moment: Slowly becoming the new Tez

Fans View: Dare we believe that we have a chance?

Hengy has his best chance ever to progress should he pick the Lille side, whilst he won’t get anything off Tyke, Henry and Ludy are possible 6 points and this deffo would see second and even third place may just see him get to them knock-outs, a rare opportunity for Hengy. Personally I think he will just miss out in as worst third place finisher.

Verdict: Group-Stages
