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.

          I think he will start but not preform too good. They are virtually safe and with a lot of tired legs around, and no hazard, they will struggle vs a solid Everton side. 1-1 or 1-2 for everton imho.

    My front three is currently

    Sturridge, Tevez, Aguero

    I'm sort of wanting to swap one of Tevez or Ag, with 2 mill in the bank, any suggestions?

          I'd probably remove Aguero..

          Wait as late as you can to see about late breaking team news. I think Aguero is more likely to be dropped as he had a niggle and it would be a like for like swap with Dzeko but Tevez's form is worse.

    Lloris - (McCarthy)

    Enrique - Dawson - Davies - (Baines - Mertesacker)

    Bale - Silva - Mata - Walcott - (Coutinho)

    Sturridge - Lukaku - Tevez

    got 2.4 in the bank but no FT left... unsure who to start and captain or whether to make any changes!

      1. You're on crack benching Coutinho.
      2. Get rid of Lakuku or Tevez

        Chicarito in for one of those two could be a cheeky punt. Im considering it myself for Lukaku.

    This is my front 3: Tevez, Sturridge, Kone. I'm thinking of taking Kone out for -4. Yeah, it's a bit of a gamble, but I don't have much to play for apart from sneaking inside 40k. The options are:

    A) Carroll (RDG)
    B) Podolski (new)
    C) Lambert (STK)

    Any thoughts would be appreciated

    If I sell Maloney I have 7.1 for a new mid
    If I sell Kone I have 8.6 for a new striker (I have Sturridge)

    What should I do? Either will cost me points

        Think i'll play him. He should be up for it. Great form and final game and maybe his last for Wigan?
