FFS Cup

FFS Paddy Power Cup X – Fourth Round Draw

Tonight we roll out the fourth round draw of the Fantasy Football Scout Cup X, as sponsored by Paddy Power, as well as  look back at the nail-biting conclusion to the Third Round ties.

With a score of 105 points, Made of Stone achieved the highest haul of the round. Given his losing opponent Paul Penney notched up an impressive 84 points, it shows just how tough this competition gets towards the final rounds. Made of Stone’s heroics, which included captaining David Silva and having John Terry and Pablo Zabaleta in his defence, earn him a round four tie against Nordeast.

The Fourth Round sees two top ten players looking to progress further in the competition. Randy Milla sits in seventh overall and faces 1,217th ranked Whalley DJ. Meanwhile, Doctor101 may be a credible 2,431st overall but has the tough task of taking on eighth placed Never Trust Lukaku.

Another name to watch out for in round four is Granville. Our Scoutcast co-host saw off Huddy in round three and will meet Fantasypete next.

Other notable community match ups in round four include Tommy J against Louis Van Goal and Dez against Gimli son of Gloin.

The full list of third round results can be found here, while the fourth round draw in full can be found here.

Good luck to those involved in the weekend’s action. In the meantime, though, if you’re looking for more information on the Scout Cup schedule and prizes available, click this link for a more thorough rundown.

    Jan WC thoughts...

    Siggy to rotate with Bojan (obv)
    Must get A. Young at all costs
    Lamela essential
    Begovic as keeper

    Have I missed anything?

    1. Sadio

      Recipe for success, surely.

        Yes! @Bebauchy's with the program.

        Albrighton's a great GW1 bandwagon, I mean Jan WC prospect...
        Surely he's nailed on & Lei looks a decent shout to do well.

        1. Debauchy
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Aye - first in for sure

  2. white lightning

    Considering this move for a -4 hit:
    Sanchez & Sakho out - Cazorla & Giroud in

    I haven't taken a hit for a while & I could just do Sakho to Kane for free but imo there's more upside with Cazorla & Giroud.

    Will give me:
    Guzan
    Baines, Ivan, Zaba
    Cazorla, YYT, Hazard, Siggy
    Giroud (c), Bony, Austin

    Elliott, Downing, Chambers, Hutton

    People have shot me down when I suggested replacing Sanchez with Cazorla but stats, points, playing position all favour Cazorla. Bringing in Giroud for a hit allows me to put Downing on the bench in case Hazard is rested & he seems a good captain choice this week.

    Thoughts appreciated & thanks in advance.

    1. Sadio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I'm fully on board with this decision.

      However, I would captain Cazorla. He's been immense for Arsenal, can see a haul for him on Friday.

      1. white lightning
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Cheers bro. Have yourself a excellent Xmas.

  3. davies
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    How long would a Dummett > Azpi/Terry (-4) take to pay off?

    If I make the move, I'd bench Hutton (swa).

    Yay or nay?

        Pull the trigger?

    2. Holmes

      This week, so 90mins

      1. davies
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Should I make the move?

    3. Patty
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      chelsea against west ham though

      1. davies
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Mm, I know. Pondering whether to make the move, though.

    4. Zasa
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      C'mon mate, put the eggnog do.

      1. Zasa
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        *down

        1. davies
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Thought so.

          Is that a nay?

      2. davies
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        What? 😕 😆

        1. Zasa
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          ...don't do it!
          Surely not for a hit!

          1. davies
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Why, though?

            Hutton could get a 1 pointer, Dummett/Newcastle is shite and Chelsea are good defensively (likely CS).

            1. Zasa
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 5 months ago

              Low risk, low reward move imo
              Hutton very likely will get a 1 pointer, but so may Terry, & so may he get one vs Saints away.

              1. davies
                • 9 Years
                9 years, 5 months ago

                Good point.

                I'll think about it up to deadline, then I'll decide.

              2. Zasa
                • 9 Years
                9 years, 5 months ago

                *high risk

  4. Holmes
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    One more decision and team is set for this week:
    Heaton
    Baines Clyne Terry
    Sanchez Yaya Cazorla Sigurdsson
    Austin Rooney Carroll
    Bench: Downing, Hutton, Duff
    -4pts 🙂

  5. Patty
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Despite my cup opponent being inactive since the start, he has a team that makes me worried http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/1464873/event-history/17/

    1. Venom Snake
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      He's made 11 transfers this GW. If you lose you should retire from fpl

      1. Chelsea Dagger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        unless he pulls out the WC ...

    2. Billy Gilmore
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      With 11 transfers his team will look nothing like that.

      1. Patty
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        wow it will probably look even better now

      2. megatronaldinho
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        wonder if he thought that the cup was to begin next week and these hits were in preparation. he just got it a week off :/

        1. megatronaldinho
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          or as CD suggests, a late WC

  6. Patty
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Is giroud likely to be rested

    1. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Doubt it. Looks fit and sharp to me and hasn't played all that much football this year so isn't jaded.

  7. Saniul
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Good news. I face a dead team in the Cup.

    Bad news.'

    His team is
    Szczesny,
    Ivanovic, Baines, Bertrand, Hutton,
    di Maria, Downing, Fabregas, Sigurdsson,
    Costa(c), Giroud.

    Wow. 😯

    1. Venom Snake
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Wow.

      • 9 Years

      My team face a ghost team as well in the Cup, however with "SS" and swastika in the name of the team, it is fairly strange.

  8. Zasa
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Surely I'm crazy for bringing in Sterling, for Oscar this week on a trannie, no?
    MNF for the former, while the latter is fully rested & a guaranteed starterr

    1. JasonG123
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Yes, imo you're crazy. Get Eriksen/Downing instead.

      1. Zasa
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Last weeks points mate 😉
        Wouldn't get Downing in against Chelsea, wouldn't want Eriksen long term 🙁

        1. OShaughnessy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          > wouldn't want Eriksen long term

          Season & a half of being one the best midfielders points per million wise not good enough?
          Need to see more I guess...

          1. Zasa
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            😉 Feel the boat has sailed for me on Eriksen, he's a great option for sure.
            Sterling's OoP & great fixtures edges it for me.

            High risk, high reward for sure, at 50k I think a cheeky little punt won't hurt me

            1. OShaughnessy
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 5 months ago

              Just that Balo's back & Sterling *has to* get a rest sometime, right?
              As for the fixtures they're both pretty great.
              Maybe find room for both?

              1. Zasa
                • 9 Years
                9 years, 5 months ago

                On the rest part, I'm almost certain BR said he'll be rested 'til after Boxing day.

                Great point on getting both though O'S, I may have to if RvP finds a serious dip in form. Can't at the moment, RvP tied up all my Aguero funds 😉

                Thanks for the insight O'S 🙂

        2. JasonG123
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Then keep Oscar this week and get Downing next week. I still think Eriksen is a good, albeit slightly erratic option.

          1. Zasa
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            I counter your logic with more insane drivel & knee jerky proposals
            Eriksen is a great choice, you're right.
            Cheers Jason

    2. Chelsea Dagger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      absolutely crazy

      1. Zasa
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Is it a good crazy? Or Jack Nicholson in The Shining type crazy?

    3. RubeRx
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I know its tempting after he didn't start, but there maybe a reason to that. Getting Sterling for Burnley is not a bad move but you may want to weigh your options.

      I think Mourinho played it safe by starting two defensive mids (Mikel + Matic) at an away game at Stoke after what happened at Newcastle, where they got hit on the break twice. I think he was just trying to match Stoke's physicality.

      Mourinho actually does rotate, and I'm pretty sure he will revert back to his normal lineup with Fabregas playing a bit deeper than Oscar in this upcoming home game vs West Ham You may want to just hold off just one more week as a rested Oscar may do some damage.

      Food for thought.

      1. Zasa
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Great point Ruber, very good points. Thanks for the insight 🙂

        For the record: My problem with Oscar isn't the rotation issue, or Fabregas, this isn't my knee-jerky response to his benching (although I was bit irked, thankfully JT saved my arse)

        My problem lies in the points, that's all. He's not bringing them in, he's brought me 2 assists & 2 blanks, plus 2 subbed off performances since Gw14.
        In that time period, all the replacements I was pondering on (for AdM), out scored him with ease (i.e, Downing, Eriksen, Cazorla, Silva, Mata 😯 )

        Keep in mind, I'm playing a strict 343, no rotation or anything (Siggy's my 4th mid).
        So there's little to no room for error in the coveted 3rd spot, if I was playing a more conservative game in the top1k, I'd keep him maybe.

        Need to maximize possible point ceilings at the 8.0 price bracket, Oscar nearly only performs at home (ironically) & that isn't cutting it for me. A good top 10k differential, & catching points before the rest, gives me a better chance to smash into the top 10k.
        Sterling has fixtures, OoP, who know's what will come of that 😉

  9. JasonG123
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Which would you do?

    (A) Costa to Falcao
    (B) Dummett to B.Davies (otherwise have to play Dummett away to United)
    (C) Save FT.

    1. Zasa
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Save the FT imo, you'll it need those 2 FT's when the panic after Xmas sets in

      1. Zasa
        • 9 Years

      Nobody knows.

      Siggy/Gomis, I imagine.

      RVP.

    6. Pepin - RIP Absinthe

        Yep, a punt gone badly wrong last week.

    1. Holmes

      I wont be confident to win if I got this team 😀

      1. davies

        He's my opponent.

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          I know, thats good team imo

          1. davies
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Beatable, though. He's reliant on Saints.

    2. Venom Snake
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Course not

      1. davies
        • 9 Years

        Triple Saints and Costa better not turn up, I'm telling ya. 🙂

    Costa home to w ham
    Or
    Sigi home to Vvilla

    1. davies
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Neither, if I'm honest.

      Any other options?

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

        Lol neither wasnt an option, its an experiment

        1. davies
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Costa, then. Purely down to ownership.

    2. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Is Gylfi even conformed fit? I will captain whichever of Sanchez or Hazard seems to be the most likely to get minutes.

            I moved back to England so no longer in the DZ. Season going well so far, looking at Long and Winding Road I am 3 points behind you 🙂

              Yep, dont know about you but im a little dissapointed with my performance so far.
              Afer making a really great start with initial selections, have failed to press home the advantage. Not being funny but should really be in the top few hundred by now. Have let all the good players catch up, and many have overtaken.
              Mainly because i was too stubborn to get sanchez

              1. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
                • 13 Years
                9 years, 5 months ago

                I started off well (top 6k in the first week) and then had 7 straight red arrows in a row, was reluctant to use the WC. I finally used it 4 weeks ago and have made up most of the ground up by going 3-5-2. Now I am having fun because Captaincy options are so varied most weeks, plenty of opportunity to push ahead.

      Hey Triggs.

      If Siggy's fit he could be a better option than Costa, but we both know the next 3 weeks is a lottery.

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Yep, it is alright

        Thing is with siggi , everyone is selling and wouldnt capt him. Yet he actually has more points than costa, and there are still mNy happy to give him the armband

        1. Acquafresca
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Who are you leaning toward?

          I thought you were putting up a pole on your blog?

          1. Twelve years a slave
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Thx for remoinding me, will do it now

    4. Zasa
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Gun to my head from those, I would put it on Costa for sure.

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Exactly, we nearly all would, given just the straight choice. Its all down to perception over reality.
        Siggi is outscoring Costa, who is taking us all for a ride , simply becaue he is chelseas main striker

        1. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          With Costa, though, it's also the high point ceiling. He could score a hatrick any week. The nailed-on striker for the best team in the league that scores quite a few goals. I know his points production has sort of petered off, but he is not really on my list to get rid of. It's not like there are that many striker options out there screaming for inclusion based on recent form and upcoming fixtures. I am with Mark on this one.

          1. Acquafresca
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            I agree that the potential is there, but his recent form has got to be worrying.

            Also missed some very easy chances last game (a breakaway and another open chance), so I think his morale is a bit in the gutter atm.

            1. Twelve years a slave
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              9 years, 5 months ago

              Not impossible that sigi could score two in a match, he has done it for iceland a few times this season

              1. Twelve years a slave
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 13 Years
                9 years, 5 months ago

                Maybe the spanish players like the sunshine , totally different conditions to playing at stoke on a freezong winters day

        2. Zasa
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Costa has fallen from grace for a while, he's lost face.
          Simply out of pure ownership, & taking your ranking into account, I would definitely Captain instead of Siggy.

          Siggy's has very low ceiling compared to Costa, all down to goals. Siggy doesn't offer goals, never has. Costa will punish you tenfold compared to Siggy, you have more to gane than lose with the former.

          Having said that, I would get rid when the opportunity arises

          1. Zasa

  14. alexhcheng10
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Hazard, Clichy, Wisdom

    or

    Eriksen, Zabaleta, Ivanovic???

    1. OShaughnessy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Eriksen, Zabaleta, Ivanovic.
      Easy, and it's not even close.

    2. OPTA FPL

      2

    3. Zasa

      The latter for sure

    i face a dead team in the cup - albeit a strong one - but i cudn't give an amoeba's sh1t whether i win or lose. the worst thing u can do is let your opponent's team influence your team selection or captain decision, as your chznces of winning the entire comp are practically non - existent

    1. Acquafresca
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I agree. Guy I'm playing has Stevie G(c) 🙂

      1. OShaughnessy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        My dead team's got Sterling as C although, that's probably better than facing a potential Aguero v. WBA...

    2. RubeRx

        exactly why i cudn't give one then. i reckoned they probably didn't but i don't let facts get in the way of a colourful phrase 😀

            lol. this sounds odd but a politician, well, a local councillor, once told me, as we shared a spl1ff, that i shud be a politician. based on how eloquently and convincingly i argued a point. a point i neither believed nor understood 😀

      I've never paid attention to the cup. I couldn't tell you how well or poorly I've done over the years.

  16. Delhidynamo
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Buying siggy back at 7.0 might be one of my worst calls this season

    What's the consensus on him? Drop or keep?

    I was looking at Hendo or Johnson for a short term punt. Fifth mid anyway

    1. Kuda
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Keep for now until further news

  17. vice
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Thoughts on who'll get more minutes on Boxing Day?

    A) Giroud
    B) Hazard

    1. Delhidynamo
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Mr GQ

    2. Polo
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Giroud

    3. Debauchy
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Probably B
      Still expect Giroud to start though .
      Who knows really ?

    4. Willis.
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Hazard

  18. davies
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Azpi or Terry?

    1. Delhidynamo
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Terry. Even though I own azpi

    2. Cristi@no R7
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      terry

    3. Polo
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Terry, just

    4. Acquafresca
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Jonathan Terrence.

  19. Stupendous
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Who is this Elia fella Saints have signed?

    1. Acquafresca
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Dutch winger, played for Juve in the past.

      Pacy and quick feet, pretty much a duplicate of Mane.

      1. Stupendous
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Ah I thought it might be him but didn't recognise the first name!

        How did that all come about?

        Any FPL potential? Maybe new year eh? Their fixtures are decent then right?

      2. Stupendous
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        He is fast as took from what I remember!

        Didn't he play at Barca briefly?

        Google time....

        1. Stupendous
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Fook

          1. Acquafresca
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Yeah he's super fast, had him in my fifa ultimate team for a while.

            Don't think he'll be a good FPL option though, too many good mids to pick over him.

            I'm guessing he'll be around 6-6.5

            1. Nabs Kebabs
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 5 months ago

              91 pace on fut 😯

        2. Willis.
          • 12 Years

          That was Afellay.

          1. Stupendous
            • 11 Years

            That's right!! Cheers.

    2. Zasa
      • 9 Years

      Great dribbler, poor crosser, poor finisher, fancy tricks with no end game. Selfish.

  20. Clintymints
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    2 free trannies this week and I think I should get rid of Moore with one.

    Evans in for Moore? Have exactly 5.2 to do it. My initial plan was to get Debuchy in but Evans has the better fixts

    Any thoughts?

    Team here - http://i.imgur.com/XUZoFmX.png

    or

    1.2 in the bank

    Forster/Hamer

    Yun - Azpi - Dummett - Bartley - Moore

    Yaya - Hazzy - Siggy - Sanchez - Eriksen

    Costa - Kane - Bony

    1. Acquafresca
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Wow defence literally hanging by 2 threads.

    2. davies
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Bartley and Moore out.

      What's your budget for 2 defenders?

      1. Clintymints
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        9.1 for bartley and Moore

        I'm ok with having Bartley there even if he doesn't play, that's fine. I've had him since like week 3

        Hart in for Forster and O'Shea in for moore gives me 0.0 too!

        1. davies
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Moore > Vergini

          How much on a Bartley replacement?

    3. Acquafresca
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Bartley + Moore > Vergini + someone

    4. Venom Snake
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Fix Bartley and Moore

  21. Nonameentered
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    What do you reckon is the percentage chance of Sanchez playing this GW?

    1. Venom Snake
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      30%

  22. Venom Snake
    • 10 Years

    Can somebody wrap these Christmas gifts for me? I need a nap.

    1. RubeRx
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Santa doesn't nap at this time of year

    2. Delhidynamo
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Get a girlfriend. Very handy

  23. Sadio
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Captaincy:

    A) Giroud
    B) Zabaleta
    C) Yaya
    D) Sanchez
    E) Eriksen

    1. Nonameentered
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Very tough call this week 🙁

      Maybe Sanchez (C) and Yaya (VC)

      1. Stupendous
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Can see QPR scoring and if Arsenal play like they did v Pool, and rest SancheZ, Wenger will need Sanchez off the bench. I'd captain Giroud or Yaya for 90mins worth (maybe???)

    2. davies
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      A) (C)
      C) (VC)

  24. Stupendous
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    What to do lads...

    Adrian (McCarthy)
    Kola. Luis. Bartley (duff. Wisdom)
    Siggy. Sanchez. Haz. Yaya. Downing
    Austin. Rvp. Benteke

    1ft. .2itb

    1. davies
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Ship Bartley/Duff.

      1. Stupendous
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Easier said than done. Only thing I see is Blackett and Saylor. Neither of which I want this week, and in Blackett's case, ever.

        1. davies
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          What's your budget?

    2. Acquafresca
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Duff or Bartley out

      1. Stupendous
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        See above mate

        If I ship Siggy I lose .5m so can't use that cash.

        1. Acquafresca
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Save and pray, you won't get a full team this week I don't think.

          2FTs next week, take a hit and remove a mid and those 2 defenders.

          1. Stupendous
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Looks likely I may have ONE PLAYING DEF

            How have I got myself here?

            Three greenies in a row though mate

            Cheers

  25. Saniul

    9 years, 5 months ago

    The three transfers I've made in the last two weeks (Baines, Lukaku, van Persie) have been calamitous, so I'd rather listen to you guys this week.

    Team for this week is.
    Adrian,
    Azpi, Baines, Hutton,
    Downing, Sanchez, Hazard, Eriksen,
    Lukaku, RVP (c), Austin.

    A couple of questions, just.

    1. Play Boyd ahead of Downing/Austin?
    2. Lukaku to Giroud, or save FT?

    1. davies
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      1) No.
      2) I'd be tempted, yes.

      1. Saniul
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Ah, decision 2 seems to be bothering me, just that every differential I've bought in the last two weeks have failed miserably. 😐

        1. davies
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          I did Rooney > Giroud, fwiw.

          1. Saniul
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Wise transfer.

      2. Twelve years a slave
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        I would consider Boyd ahead of Downing, but having said that i have Boyd on the bench too, but there nothing in it really

        1. Saniul
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Cheers, Triggerlips.

      1. Saniul
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Moreno went on owing me for six weeks, just ended up giving me 7 points in those six. 😛

        1. Debauchy
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Oh yeah , had Moreno too ,awhile too long

    Please give it some thought

    1. Acquafresca
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Suggestion, only have the top 5-6 picks, the list is way too long.

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        I thought about just leaving it blank so people could put in their own choice.
        This week though you can make a case for every one of those on that list.

        1. Twelve years a slave
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          I even forgot Hazard

          1. Acquafresca
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            lol.

        2. Acquafresca
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          True, I just mean in future weeks, just put the top 5-6.

          1. Twelve years a slave
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Yep, this is the longest so far. Normally it more straight forward

  27. Nonameentered
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Quick captaincy vote:
    A) Hazard
    B) Sanchez
    C) Yaya
    D) RvP

    1. Stupendous
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Rvp

    2. Cristi@no R7
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Yaya

    3. Saniul
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Sanchez (c), RVP (vc) for me.

    4. Nabs Kebabs
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Bony for me.

      Out of those RVP

  28. Twelve years a slave

    Jovetic back after this week, that will shake things up a little

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Yep, few knees 😀

    2. Stupendous
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Hardly mate. Think I'd rather we play a false 9 than let him lead the line...

    3. Saniul
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Vies with Milner with the spot, who isn't much of a choice anyway. Silva should retain that place in the hole anyway.

  29. Cristi@no R7
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Clichy to other with 5.8 INB for -4 or keep him???

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Keep

      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      bench defender to Kolarov?

      1. Stupendous
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        So he can have one guaranteed starter and one guaranteed bench warmer?

      2. Cristi@no R7
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        clichy played 9 consecutive games. i got him last week & he is rested.

        1. Stupendous
