Sunday’s inaugural Fantasy Football Shield final will be contested by former FFS Cup Winner “Fuzzy Dunlop” and “Mr KK” following Gameweek 37’s semi-final matches.

Fuzzy progressed to Sunday’s showpiece courtesy of a hard-fought battle with “Eunuch Jelly” with points hits the deciding factor on show. The “Jellyman” took an eight point hit, fetching in Theo Walcott, Frank Lampard and Victor Anichebe for Michu, Eden Hazard and Jermain Defoe. While that move offered him profit, it wasn’t enough to overcome Fuzzy Dunlop’s squad as he brought in both Walcott and Daniel Sturridge with explosive effect. That Sturridge transfer made the difference as Fuzzy ran out the victor by five points.

“Acquafresca’s” extraordinary run of cup form came to an abrupt end in his semi-final, as Mr KK flexed his high-rank muscles to see him off by a six point margin. Acquafresca made a positive move by bringing in Lampard but decided against taking a hit going into the tie, keeping faith with Romelu Lukaku and Carlos Tevez up front. Mr KK traded Lukaku for Sturridge with his free transfer and the rest is history.

Good luck to our two finalists – there’s a £100 Amazon voucher up for grabs for the winner, with a £50 voucher lined up for the runner-up.

    Redknapp could opt to make several changes to give some of his young or fringe players a chance in the final game of the season before planning for the Championship.

    Don't remember a week where the capt choice was so important to everyone - everyone where there's only a few points in it for their minileague.

    All I can do is prepare myself for the fact that whether it's Bale, RVP or Sturridge, I'll pick wrong!

    Now.. do I do this Mata > Michu FT and captain Michu just for the craic?

          If you're going to bring Coutinho in, bring him in for Afro. No point getting rid of Yaya when you can get rid of Afro instead. Then you can have Yaya on the bench if you want.

    Chris Glover's site has Liverpool creating most chances this week. Sturridge is in huge form and is central to all that they do in an attacking sense.

    Does anyone have a better reason to captain Bale (tougher opponent, poorer form, less vital to attacks if late) or is it just based on season-long consistency?

        Agree. However that was also the case over the last few weeks when he's played poorly, one great strike aside. Also if Arsenal go into an early lead and word gets through to the lane, Spurs will be totally demoralised.

        I could be wrong but I seem to remember players of the season generally going into a funk for a few weeks after the award.

          Unless Arsenal are 3 up Spurs have to keep going for it. This is the biggest game of their season and some of their careers to date. They'll be psyched. I dont know about post POTY stress but Bale has the ability and if Villa can rattle a few by them then why cant Spurs.

    The crowd at White Heart Lane will make sure the players do know what's happening at St. James' Park, right? I wonder how Arsenal's one or two goal advantage can impact Spurs' goal hunger.

      Spurs will already have a few goals by then anyway.

        Sure, I remember that game very well. It surely won't happen again but Tottenham players will have it in mind.

      I would keep Tevez if I were you, I think he'll out score Sturridge.
