The draw for the first round of the 2019/20 FFS Cup

FFS Cup December 20

FFS Paddy Power Cup – The Last Sixteen Draw

Next up, we roll out the draw for the last 16 in the Fantasy Football Scout Paddy Power Cup VII. Site regulars such as Wild Rover and JMS remain in with a shout of silverware. Both have avoided world number one Iyad Zahlan – he is up against Jon Griffiths, who takes on the role of underdog, with a rank around the 52,000 mark.

For those still involved, it’s worth knowing that the last eight will qualify automatically for the Fantasy Football Scout Shield, where they will meet the final eight from the Members Cup, which starts in January.

The FFS Shield has its own prizes and is played out over the final Gameweeks of the season. No pressure, then…

1	ange1range1	Vs.	Lardy Man
2	JMS	Vs.	Perchinho
3	Wild rover	Vs.	Kenncam
4	Donaldo	Vs.	MileHigh
5	Tdubb05	Vs.	Mr.KK
6	ricky smokes lets go	Vs.	Green_Libero
7	legriff	Vs.	Giavara555
8	Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad	Vs.	RedOranjePey

      I just don't think United will be able to keep Madrid from scoring more than them. Simple really.

New Post. Repost.

Which would you rather have? The players in the brackets are the ones I’d play/bring in for GW19 so you have a better idea of a longer term plan.

A)
Silva(Bale) Puncheon Michu Sessegnon(Young)
RVP Suarez Aguero

B)
Silva(Bale) Yaya Walcott(Taarabt) Michu Sterling(Berba)
RVP Suarez

      Over achieved last season, under achieving this season. Key players injured - Cabaye, Arfa, S Taylor.. Colo has been banned and injured this season... Gutierrez and Cisse woefully short of form... a combination of things really.
      
      Hopefully we'll pick things up and we can still finish mid table and get through a couple more rounds of the Europa ... maybe.

C) Both A & B for a 8 point hit
D) Do none play Suarez and Rafael

Sorry for the repost. Need more opinions. Already have Yayay. Very tempted to do C)

4 deadlines in the space of 11 days

Could be make or break for the season.

Hoping to get inside the top 50k over this period.

  I've been having a similar season to you prior to the last 3 gameweeks, you seem to be going on a good run now so its definitely possible. The guy with the highest gameweek score last week rose from 400k to 50k. Both of you are my inspiration now to get out of my rot.
