The FFS Paddy Power Cup – Wild Rover Claims Glory

951 Comments

Our congratulations go to Wild Rover after he clinched victory in the Fantasy Football Scout Paddy Power Cup Final last night, following an 87-75 win over Mile High. The double Gameweek 23 proved a fitting backdrop to their head-to-head, with that winning margin ultimately coming down to each player’s choice of Arsenal and West Ham coverage in the final match of the Gameweek at the Emirates on Wednesday evening:

While both finalists handed Theo Walcott the armband and also had Kieran Gibbs and Guy Demel in their ranks, Wild Rover’s midfield proved decisive. Joe Cole and Santi Cazorla both returned double figure hauls, while Mile High received just four points from the Hammers’ Mark Noble, with Jussi Jaaskelainen and Bacary Sagna chipping in with three points apiece at the back. Wild Rover’s five double Gameweek players produced 63 points, then, compared to Mile High’s 51 from six – a 12 point gap which proved the difference between their Gameweek scores, despite our new champion taking a four point hit for the occasion.

    A) Cazorla + Noble > Flelani + Taabrat
    B) Cazorla + Lambert > Fellani + Fletcher
    C) Cazorla + Lambert > Bale + 6.0m forward, at the moment Remy

    I have Walcott, Mata, Sterling, RVP and Tevez. Other option is look at changing Tevez.

    Asked a thousand times I know, but interested to know who is going 3-5-2 over 3-4-3?

    If you're going 3-4-3, who would you drop from the Power 5?

      3-4-3.

      Bale is out for me. I'm not anti-Bale at all, but I have strong reasons for keeping the others. Michu and Fellaini are the best VFM, allowing for strength in other areas, Mata is Mr Consistent surely nailed on for a couple of games and Walcott has to stay for me because of his form and fixtures.

        I kinda agree with all of this, but it still doesn't sit right.

        Are you leaving funds free to get Bale in for a Power 5 if he explodes, or would you remove one of the other 4?

          Yeah, I just know I'll get burnt. But then if Walcott can outscore Bale in the next 4 games, I can say my decision was correct and then reassess. I have some funds to do Walcott > Bale or even downgrade Aguero if he isn't doing it for me, and go 3-5-2.

          Those two are also my main candidates to drop from my MF, so I agree with this.

          You think Gerrard offers better value than Studge? Hmmm, not so sure, especially as he'll most likely sit deeper with Suarez now behind Studge.

          I'm thinking start with RVP Aguero Fletcher, and replace with Studge after 2 GW's.

          It's who to drop from my strong 5 for this. At the moment its Bale I think, especially as Defoe as hit a dry spell and Ade is away.

        Hmm I have my reservations about Fellaini, but there's just no-one appealing to me in the same price bracket. Michu is still a danger man, proved it in the COCup over the 2 legs, and he's been hitting the bar a few times, so I've no doubt he's capable, but is he worth the 8.3m i would have to pay?

    When selecting players do you really consider "coverage" team wise?
    For example, if you have Suarez in your team you don't want to bring in Sturridge because you already have Liverpool coverage.

    That would only matter if you are planning on benching players from time to time. Or?
    In the example above, if I think that Sturridge will score more than any other player that I can bring in to my team then the fact that I already have Suarez shouldn't matter?
    Or am I wrong?

    So Gerrard's streak for last 7 GWs is are 9, 17, 7, 7, 10, 5, 9. Not all of them were Norwich. He played Stoke away and United away in these games. Pretty impressive if you ask me. I still don't get why Gerrard is not yet "essential" on this site while players like Bale and Aguero are who haven't been much impressive recently and are returning from injury.

    Very well done Podolski. Finally, you are showing the world why you are now established as a top 5 winger of the world.

    Now you're next goal is to move into the top 3 and then to become #2 by surpassing LOSERnaldo. Of course, Walcott is the best winger in the world though, since he is also best PLAYER in the world along with Jack Wilshere who is also best midfielder of the world and of this generation.

    WHOM CAN STOP US.

    WHERE ARE YOU HATERS. ARSENAL ARE VICTORIOUS. I LAUGH AND SPIT IN YOUR FACE HATERS.

        I believe he can play for them in the CL yes. Apparently they are really in a period of growth for the club, with big plans. After reading up on it, I'm starting to think maybe he isn't as much of a money grabber as people think. Sure, maybe a bit greedy, but there were footballing reasons too.

      He couldn't stay at Inter and the top english clubs didn't need him, so didn't want him. This didn;t leave him much choice. He could have gone to Russia for more money, but decided against it.

    Happy Days! Well done, Wild Rover! 😀

    I've been a Wild Rover for many's the year
    I've spent all me money on WHISKEY AND BEER
    But now I'm returning with gold in great store
    And I never will play the wild rover no more

    And it's No, Nay, never,
    No, nay never no more
    Will I play the wild rover,
    No never no more

    I went in to an alehouse I used to frequent
    And I told the landlady me money was spent
    I asked her for credit, she answered me nay
    Such a customer as you I can have any day

    And it's No, Nay, etc

    I took up from my pocket, ten sovereigns bright
    And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
    She says "I have whiskeys and wines of the best
    And the words that you told me were only in jest"

    And it's No, Nay, etc

    I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done
    And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son
    And, when they've caressed me as oft times before
    I never will play the wild rover no more

    And it's No, Nay, etc

        Hehehe. Pogues ftw. Here is one of mine:

        The Second Cup

        How sweet this cup, unsugared blended tea,
        Infused with my love for you, and you for me!
        So blessed, from rich estates, and Darjeeling
        Expressing so much of us, our mutual feeling.

        And as the pungent liquor slowly pours,
        I reflect on this love of mine, and yours.
        Our children, like the issue from the spout
        Are sometimes here, but much more often out.

        So much survived, and much more shared
        Leaves both of us with nerve ends bared;
        And this gentle ritual of brewing tea
        Provides for me, an essential sheltering lea:
        Because your welcome presence lifts me up,
        I always pour for you, the second cup.

      It's kinda like Silva, Tevez/Dzeko and Aguero.

      Aguero like Suarez is expensive, Tevez/Dzeko like Sturridge will be rotated from time to time. Then you have Gerrard, like Silva who is nailed on and consistent when playing. Plus Gerrard on penalties and set pieces is still very appealing. Unfortunately who do you drop from Bale, Mata, Michu, Walcott and Fellaini and still manage to afford him 😕

          Serious differential. He's tempting me but I'm set on 3-4-3 and can't fit him in without shifting Michu/ Fellaini. Out of curiosity, would you rather Sturridge or Lambert as a 3rd striker Doos? Rick's been looking good, getting hard to ignore 😕
