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.

    Contemplating a move, just give me a few opinions so i can go to sleep.

    aguero + sterling -> rooney + puncheon for a -4
    leaves me with 0.0 in the bank

    planing on WC before DGW, and the next three games for the 2 are

    city: sund, nor, STO
    man: NEW, WBA, wig

    roon with much better fixtures but aguero is due a haul?

      Though he got injured on the 27th October, FPL site says ankle injury, other reports say broken fibula: http://www.stoke.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=297897

      12-16 weeks is just the healing time, not the rehabilitation time though, so he definitely won't be back before the end of January, as rehabilitation will probably take at least another 6-8 weeks.

      More likely return date is mid April I reckon, unfortunately

          Yup, but not in the winger sense, more in the inside forward sense. Glen Johnson is practically the winger on that flank anyway.

          Most of Sturridge's movements will be cutting in behind to the fullback to get through on goal I would imagine. Sort of like Pedro for Barca.

          Agreed about the 12m, but he is a proven goal-scorer in the Premiership, importantly. Would rather see Gervinho replaced in all honesty...

        I would rather have Sturridge. He's younger, quicker, can play across the front three, and fits in with FSG's policy of re-sale value.

    Decided I'm captaining Michu as well folks.

    Reasons?

    Reading got ripped to shreds by (cue Alan Hansen voice-over) Arsenal's wonderful passing and movement. Swansea on their day can do the same. Reading know they can't simply sit back at home therefore will surely go for it more than they did against Citeh, leading to a cheeky Michu hat-trick, becoming the 4th Spanish player to score a hat-trick in the Prem.

    Good day to you Sirs.

      shaka hislop mentioned on ESPN FC press pass that City were "far too narrow" against Reading, and the Royals actually struggled with Arsenal's "width" the game beforehand. that statement is one of the reasons i'm tempted to captain Michu too.

          I am in a similar boat with Santi; I would look at three things (and hopefully I'm not stating the obvious):
          Santi vs. Bale -- if you are fine with either, then getting Bale only helps you.
          How many guys do you have on 4 yellows? If more than two, save FT otherwise you are stuck with Bale since you are potentially putting out other fires.
          How nailed on do you feel the rest of your squad is through gw21? If solid, you can take the risk for tomorrow.
          Maximizing the next three weeks will be tough but getting players who can get on the pitch is maybe the best move towards doing so more than form, fixtures, etc.
