The highest-ranked Fantasy manager left in the Fantasy Football Scout Cup is still 216th placed Chucky 77, who faces 111,248th-ranked whatsupgeeza.

Another notable Round 3 tie is community writer Bowstring the Carp’s match with our resident physiotherapy expert Facer.

      Forgot to check whether I'm even through. Turns out I've been knocked out of both... This season sucks.

    Sorry if this has been asked already, but what are the main things from the pressers today?

    New article on potential transfers etc. struggling this week with what to do

    http://Www.triggerlips.com

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      If Lukaku is injured punt on Paloschi.

      1. Sess!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Ridiculous to punt on an unknown quantity in a relegation threatened team.

        1. S.Kuqi
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Why? Only 2 gw punt before getting Vardy.

          1. Sess!
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            Just get vardy now. Capable of scoring against anyone and his price will continue to rise.

            1. S.Kuqi
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              but...but...those away games are tough 😐

              1. Sess!
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member

                8 years, 3 months ago

                Go with what you feel, I just think short term transfer rarely work out and sure there's other things you'll want your FT for in 2 weeks time.

                1. S.Kuqi
                  • 11 Years
                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  Agreed but I'm so god damn bored being 10 gws in a row between or 100K -22K

    2. Mr. Grv

      Suprisied sanchez is so low .

      I was saying on the scoutcast last night how this is the toughest week I can remember for transfers. The good ones have a bad GWK 25, the bad ones have a great GWK 25.

      will have a read.

      1. Jafooli

        Any link for the Scoutcast Jonty?

      2. Hy liverpool
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        I could do Luk+Mahrez→Vardy+Sanchez but if I want to get Mahrez back I will lose about 0.8£ 🙁

    4. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Had been planning on Ramsey > Sanchez too. Half tempted just to bench Lukaku and continue as planned.

  4. Mr. Grv
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Has anyone worked out potential dgw dates and teams involved ?

    1. Costa in Wengerland
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Yes Diva

    2. Mr. Grv

      Thanks

    3. Hooky

      This is also decent from Perchinho. There are 2 tabs on the spreadsheet.

      1. Mr. Grv

        Thanks , we lost this game .

        1. Hooky
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Time for a comeback like the previous rounds

  5. Lateriser 12
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Ziro around?

    1. Ziro Becomes One
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      yes?

      1. Irish Madridista ⭐
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Liar..

      2. Lateriser 12
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Lets? or wait for Lukaku news?

        1. Ziro Becomes One
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Am waiting. If fit then fixture is ok. Would save a FT. If unfit then Gru comes in.

          1. Lateriser 12
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            Deal? and (c)?

            1. Ziro Becomes One
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              Yes, If I get him in then (c).

              Leic have tightened up. Kun is not getting enough service. Kane fixture not ideal. Do not have Sanchez. Seems ideal for a Giroud(c) if one has him.

          2. Lateriser 12
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            Why o why am i getting cold feet?

  6. Alan Hansen's Emu
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Worth ditching KDB and Lukaku?

    A) Sanchez + Vardy (better players, worst fixtures)

    B) Fermino + Giroud (the reverse)

    I'm chasing big time..

    1. ASAP Rocky
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Yes, A.

      1. Alan Hansen's Emu
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      A, both are fixture proof imo although Sanchez has yet to break thru

      1. Alan Hansen's Emu
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks for the thought

  7. ASAP Rocky
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    1 FT. 3.0 in bank.

    Does Baines > VVD make sense?

    Butland

    Moreno - Toby - Williams

    Alli - Mahrez - Firmino - Payet - Ozil

    Kane - Aguero - Vardy

    Schmeichel - Mahrez - Smith - Baines

    1. ASAP Rocky
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Repost, please advise.

    2. Irish Madridista ⭐
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Prefer Moreno -> VvD

    1. Irish Madridista ⭐
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      I fear that transfer might be Veto'd.. 😆

      1. Irish Madridista ⭐
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        I gotta go.. I'll email ya later 🙂

      2. Reedy
        • 13 Years

        Already vetoed it and I haven't even clicked the link

        1. Irish Madridista ⭐
          • 13 Years

          😆

  8. Sergeant Garcia
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Everybody shipping Lukaku out, he'll be a nice differential in 2 weeks 🙂

    1. Alan Hansen's Emu
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Hahaha -_-

    2. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Heard earlier that he was out for 3 weeks.

      1. Sergeant Garcia
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Noooooo 🙁

    3. Mr. Grv
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Shhhh keep it quiet .

  9. Your Mum's Athletic
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    He's starting in the team news section 😆

    1. Arvin-ation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Paloschi?

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        I think he mean Routledge

  10. Venom Snake
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    I was going to bench Mahrez this week, should I just hold on to Lukaku and if he doesn't play I'll get Mahrez? It's too tough picking a forward and I really only want Vardy after the next two

  11. Jafooli
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Is there an easy way to check if still in either cup?

    1. Forza

      Ctrl+F and type your username.

        1. Ziro Becomes One
          • 9 Years

          Safari on iPad also has a search feature.

              • 9 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              there is that box with line on top... something used to also bookmark. When you slide right-side there is a search feature.

    3. Hooky

      Can't see your name in either draw.

        No surprise there...cheers Hooky

  12. Sess!
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Bench Ighalo, Mahrez or Payet? Thinking Ighalo.

    1. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Wow, really, good call. Nice to see people helping out.

      1. FantaCity
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        sorry you've had no constructive replies, but it might be that the question is impossible to answer - do you not have any other bench options? If pushed, I would say Payet of those 3

        1. Sess!
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Cheers man. No has to be one of those. Well there's ozil too but he was extremely unlucky last game and arsenal won't blank again.

    2. Sergeant Garcia
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Ighalo for me

      1. Sess!

    3. Every Dog Has Its Day

      Ighalo to be honest.

    Does Carroll possibly being back at the weekend affect Antonio?

    1. Esraj
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Nope. Valencia should be more worried. Antonio is making himself undroppable at current form.

      1. Jape
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks for the reply man. That's good to hear!

  14. Hooky
    • 9 Years

    This season seems to be going in cycles. Lukaku is essential, Lukaku is rubbish, Lukaku is essential, Lukaku is rubbish again!

    1. Venom Snake
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      That is Lukaku every season

      1. FantaCity

      1. Connor's Calling
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Yup. Think so. Need someone that i can play this week and that should be fairly nailed for a month or so.

    8 years, 3 months ago

    DDG // Hennessy
    Kosceilny // Daniels // Ward // Evans // Smith

  20. Hakuna Juan Mata

    If Lukaku is injured - WELCOME PALOSCHI!

    1. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      You lot are nuts. Another terrible FFS bandwagon in the offing it seems.

    3. S.Kuqi
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Same. So there is three of us then.

      Mahrez was shot in the dark in gw1 and look at his ownership now. Paloschi is next Mahrez

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        22 goals in 81 games for defensive minded club like Chievo Verona is great record

          ...and swansea are a free flowing attacking team are they?! Ha ha ha. That is the most daft logic I've seen. 1 in 4 isn't the worst record ever, but no reason to say playing for swansea is going to improve that. Similarly low scoring teams.

    Feck it.
    I'm jumping on the 2 minute man bandwagon

      Did you see that 12 minute video that I posted?

      1. Venom Snake
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah. At least 4 of his goals were offside 😛

        In all honesty but, do Swansea cross the ball in much? Seems a real aerial threat.

    Any advice on this would be much appreciated:

    Rudd Foster (not foRster)

    Baines Kosc Daniels PVA targett

    Mahrez Sanchez Alli Firmino Wijnaldum

    Aguero Lukaku Valencia

    1) who would you bench this week
    2) any transfers recommended. I have 1FT
    3) what defence and subs this week
    4) rivals have Kane but I'm hoping to differentiate for two weeks as WAT mci may prove tricky.

    Hello. I'm really tempted to do Payet and Trollkaku to Sanchez and Vardy to give me:

    Adrian - Hennessy
    Bellers - Toby - Moreno - Smith - Simpson
    Sanchez - Ozil - Alli - Silva - Barry
    Kun - Vardy - Kane

    Yay or neigh ?

    Ta !

      hold Payet, due a goal.

    I haven't read much this week and people are talking of players that sound like composers.

    Must do some more research...
