FFS Cup

FFS Paddy Power Cup – Last Sixteen Results

Gameweek 18 saw the last sixteen in the Paddy Power Cup go head-to-head, with a place in the Quarter-Finals and the inaugural Fanatsy Football Scout shield at stake. The results saw the top ranked player again make ominous progress, while notable names from the community also found safe passage…

Iyad Zahlan’s “Giavara555” saw off the plucky challenge of legriff to make it into the last eight to become the name that everyone wants to avoid in the draw. He’ll be joined by JMS, placed just 29 places behind him in the overall FPL rankings – another name the rest of the pack will hope to skip in next round. That heavy-hitting pair are joined by ange1range1, Wild Rover, MileHigh, Mr.KK, Ricky smokes let’s go and Tommy Tynan’s left shin pad in the last eight. All those teams now qualify for the draw for the Shield tournament, where they will be facing the final eight in the Members Cup which starts early next year.

The full results from the last sixteen are below with the draw for the Quarter-Finals due on Thursday, ahead of Gameweek 20. Tomorrow’s Gameweek gives our remaining cup participants a brief rest period, then, before the last eight do battle in the matches played out in Gameweek 20 over the December 29 and 30 matches.

Congrats to our last sixteen winners.

    Current team, which of these would be best, can't decide:

    Begovic
    Rafael Nelsen Enrique Hughes
    Mata Michu(vc) Sessegnon
    RVP(c) Defoe Suarez
    Subs: Foster, Puncheon, Sterling, Cuellar. 0M in bank

    a) Save the transfer
    b) Sess to Pienaaaaaaar
    c) Rafael to Nastasic
    d) Do a 4-pt hit, Rafael and Sess OUT for Silva and Davies
    e) Something else?

      Although it has been speculated, Walcott is actually not a Goose.

        I can't prove that he is, but you can't prove that he isn't.

    Hey DZers, any Aussies/cricket lovers watching the Boxing Day Test Match?

    Back on topic, I've got a few questions:

    1. Should I use my FT for Silva ➡ Piennar or save it?

    Silva has three very tough away fixtures imo (sun, nor and sto) while Pienaar has form and very good fixtures (WGN, CHE and SWA).

    2. Should I play Foster (qpr) or Federici (SWA)?

    3. Who is every captaining? I currently have it on good ol' RVP but tempted to put it on Michu (rdg) or Bale (avl)

    Would you play Gorkss over Cuellar or Garrido and hope he starts? Swansea at home (for Gorkss) versus Chelsea and City at home.

      What formation do you think McDermot will play?

      If uses the 4-5-1 I would have more faith in Gorkss but if not I would say Cuellar
