Down to the final 32 in the FFS Members Cup, we roll out the Fifth Round Draw, which takes place over the upcoming weekend. Former winner Fuzzy Dunlop remains in with a chance of becoming the first Fantasy manager to recapture the crown, while Rodallega Bombs will be confident of clinching a place in the last 16 after seeing off Evs last time out. Elsewhere, Rory OConnor is the highest ranked manager left – he sits in 127th spot overall – while Paul keeps the Contributors’ hopes alive:
I'm backing Acqua to see if his ego can get any bigger 😉

Stewart Downing has assisted and scored more goals this season than Nani, Antonio Valencia and Ashley Young combined.

Posted this right at the end if the last post- ill go again- is benching gerrard over sturridge, sissoko an Walcott crazy?
Open Controls
OK, I'm thinking of going without RVP or Rooney. Crazy? Maybe. I'm even thinking about dropping Bale. Now that is certifiable.
Is there big hitter or popular prospect that you're prepared to forego?

My dilemma this week is how to use my free transfer.
Either
Sturridge > Suarez
or
Kebe > Lampard/Hazard
What do you think?Open ControlsPlatini leaves his hotel.
ETA at the venue: 1830 HRS
The first guest of the evening arrives. Ginkapo!Open Controls
Any transfers worth doing?
Begovic (Bunn)
Evra Zabaleta Enrique (Davies Pearce)
Bale Walcott Sissoko Michu (Guthrie)
Rooney Suarez Benteke
Bank: 1.1
Can't see anything worth doing. Michu gets a final game but considering Bego > Cech at some point soon.Open ControlsDDG has the Linde factor. I think Cech is Chelsea's safest player (more than Cole, as they have Bertrand).
Now convinced with Kagawa this season as he's not nailed on and his Opta stats suggest he's been over performing FPL wise.Open Controls
if you were bored you could toss davies for moolah
Open Controls
Nah. He's out of form. Arsenal are back on form.
Open Controls
usually when I see an international break on the horizon I have no worries as half my players usually end up with a chest cold or a toe cramp or a tender tummy
I see this go round is mostly WC Qualifying, thus a bit more serious
Transfer pocketed.Open Controlsit does help to have RVP, Suarez, Bale and Evra this GW
more info would help too, or a yellow to Fellaini this weekOpen Controls
Good reasoning.
I am finding it hard to resist using mine, but think my team looks decent enough for this week.
J Evans I want long term and Reading game looks good, so half tempted to throw caution to the wind, but not 100% he'll play on weekend anyway (but will start majority once the midweeks etc come in to play).Open Controls
Current Team:
De Gea Bunn
Evra Zab Bassong Davies Clyne
Walcott Sissoko Bale Gerrard N'Zog
Suarez Rooney Lambert
So...
I'm tempted by the following moves:
N'Zog - Caz. (Better player, plus dgw)
Lambert - Remy (on fire)
Zab - Barnett (sponsors the Caz move)
That would leave me with the following squad:
De Gea Bunn
Evra Davies Bassong Clyne Barnett
Walcott Sissoko Bale Gerrard Caz
Suarez Rooney Remy
No FTs left this week but could take a hit of some scale.
Could use some other opinions. Particularly re timing.
What say ye, madness?

Why are the groups split like they are?

Bego Bunn
Enrique Davies Zab Demel Clyne
Michu Walcott Bale Mata Sissoko
Sturridge RVP Pog
Right so I did
Studge and Lambo > RVP and pog for -4
Wanted to keep Michu as I reckon he will do good against arsenal.

if u still have your wc, would gw33 be the best time to use it?
Open Controls
Most say GW 36. But I think it depends on your team and who loses the FA cup between che and Utd. Cause if United have a double GW and you lack united players than I would go for a GW33 Wildcard. Well you basically get my point. I for one will go GW 33 WC if United win, and gw 34-36 if Chelsea win. Cause I only have Rooney from united and no everton players.
Open Controls
Apart from bringing in either Rooney or RVP is there any other changes you would to this team
Sczesny Begovic
Zabaleta Dawson Garrido Demel Clyne
Bale Gerrard Maloney Johnson Snodgrass
Lambert Benteke Suarez
6.2m in bank 1FT
Any advice and help would be appreciatedOpen Controls
I know I have been annoying you all with my endless posts about what transfer to make, but I'm not going to be around tomorrow or Saturday to make me transfers so I'm going to have to do it tonight.
I think I have settled it.
Michu ➡ Maloney
Sturridge ➡ Rooney (can't afford RVP)
-4 points.
Opinions please. 🙂Open ControlsI'd rather:
Mata > Maloney
Sturridge > RVPOpen Controls
Agreed.
Open ControlsReally? I suppose Mata is off form and I would be getting Lampard in for him in a week or two anyway.
Thanks Acqua.Open ControlsAfter this week I'm ditching Mata and avoiding Chelsea altogether.
Schedule is too condensed and too much rotation headache in the side..Open Controls
evilfuk says:
Lingegaard will not get another game this year mate
---
What about his winner's medal? Doesn't he need 2+ appearances before the end of the season? Whilst this may mean a cameo appearance, once the title has been won, you'd imagine Fergie to give the rest of his squad a run out.Open Controlshe may easily start one of the games in dgw.
and definitely some youngsters will be playing more if the title is won. (can't think of any who isn't out on loan though....)Open ControlsWhereas Cech, you'd imagine to play every game as Chelsea cement a top 4 finish.
Open Controls
Yeah I would have thought Fergie would let him play a couple of games.
That being said though. Anyone got any examples of Fergie or anyone letting players play just to get their medals? I can't think of any off the top of my head.Open ControlsUnited can apply for medals for some players who have made a significant contribution
Open Controls
No, Fergie can apply for Lindegaard to get the medal anyway.
Open ControlsYou have mail. 🙂
Open Controls
I just bought DDG back, but regardless of any conventions regarding medals, still expect SAF tol give Lindy a run out - probably for more than a couple of games. It's the sort of thing he does with his squad.
