For those Fantasy managers who took part in last weekend’s Fantasy Football Scout Paddy Power Cup VII Third Round, a link to the results can be found here.

This includes the exit of Mark, whose dreams of silverware ended after he lost out in a duel with The Shadow. World number three Iyad Zahlan is the highest ranked remaining Fantasy manager left – he scraped through 36-34 last time out in what was a low scoring round for many.

A quick heads-up for the 128 who have made it through this far. The next round will be played this weekend (Gameweek 15). The upcoming Gameweek 14 round of fixtures which starts this evening will not contribute towards your chances of Scout Cup progress. We are currently sorting the draw for the next round behind the scenes and will roll this out on Thursday morning.

      Think it a lot more likely that you could get more returns by getting rid of Baines and chancing a def who might at least return a clean sheet. Like Bardsley?

    Rafael-->Kolarov for the next 2 GW's allowing me to upgrade Demel to a 4.5 next week with my freebie and then i would just prob do Kolarov-->J.Evans/J.Enrique or maybe even Wisdom to save enough for Tevez-->Aguero. Any toughts appreciated..

    Baines rafael cueller (demel davies)
    michu cazorla fellaini nasri (sterling)
    rvp berba fletcher

    Have 1FT and 1.8m in the bank. A couple of questions
    1) Should i start with nasri? Not sure if he will play. if he doesnt, then sterling will come on which is fine i guess?

    2) I could do nasri >> bale but a bit hesitant on that since spurs play lpool and then two away games. thoughts?

    3) Lpool have great fixtures after spurs and if enrique keeps playing at LW, i think he is a must have (over suarez). So in order to bring in enrique, i could do nasri >> lallana this week and then demel >> enrique next week.

    Thoughts?

    Thinking:
    a) Demel -> Shorey.

      Surprisingly, it looks like it might be Mert. It would be Sagna but Wenger seems reluctant to push him too hard after just returning from a long injury hence rotation risk with the very able Jenks. Gibbs is great with only Santos for competition (*snigger*) but unfortunately he's made of very delicate glass.
