FFS Cup

FFS Paddy Power Cup XI and Members Cup V – The Seventh Round Draws

This evening, we roll out the seventh round draw of the Fantasy Football Scout Cup XI, as sponsored by Paddy Power, as well as the seventh round draw for the Fantasy Football Scout Members Cup.

Fuml_akimbo is the Paddy Power Cup’s highest ranked remaining manager. Ryan has the unenviable task of taking on the 64th placed manager in the final 16.

Mark is the second highest placed remaining manager, with a rank of 177, and faces Eedee over Gameweek 35.

The manager with the highest score in round six was faux_C, whose score of 94 points earns him £25 worth of free bets with Paddy Power.

In the Members Cup, Hasselbaink Forever is the top placed remaining manager, with an overall FPL rank of 339. He takes on 2145th placed Tdubb05 in round seven. The next highest ranked manager is The Glory Hunters, who faces Alwilb, who has a rank of 7065.

The full seventh round draw for the FFS Paddy Power Cup XI can be found here, while the seventh round draw for the Members Scout Cup V 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.

    Who would you bench from Sterling, Coutinho, Henderson or Vardy?

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      That's...a lot of 'pool. If Gerrard is nailed on, bench Hendo.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        It's the remnants from last week. Team is strong enough to save a transfer

  2. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    1. Schlupp or Bertrand?
    2. Austin or Cambiasso?

    1. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Bertrand, Austin

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        From a 180Ker to a 1Ker - thank you, sir, done.

  3. LewanGOALski

    Last decision:

    (C): Aguero or Hazard ?

    1. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Agueroooooooooooooooooo

    2. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I think I am leaning towards Kun

    3. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      A lot here have said Aguero and a lot have said Haz. If you go back like 50 pages, you would not get a clear answer. Go with your gut.

    4. Ramboo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Im going Hazard.

    5. Numb
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Hazard is winning the Captain Poll comfortably.

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        He won it last week at a 60% clip and look what happened.

        1. Numb
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          I was just saying. Most people obviously think Hazard.

        2. Numb
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Plus last week was a DGW.

    6. GHB
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Quite confidently Kun for me this week

  4. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Am I insane for captaining Siggy?

    1. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Not unless you want to consolidate your rank. You'll be a hero if he does well.

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Crazier things have happened and Stoke isn't really the defensive machine they used to be.

    2. Egg noodle
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Its end of the season. Follow your heart. I'm captaining Vardy 🙂

    3. Ramboo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Its not a good decision, but hey you can get lucky and look like a genious.

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Ah, what the hell. I'm pissed at Haz and Aguero will have his chance next week. Go, Iceman, go!

        1. Ramboo
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Best of luck mate!

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

    Silva > Sanchez for free?

    1. Klopp's Kids
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      If you have funds to get Giroud in later, sure.

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

        I don't. Thinking of going Sanchez - Ramsey - Kosc.

        1. Red Star Toro
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          that's what I'll do.

        2. Granville
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Arsenal players are a complete lottery. Might as well put the names into a hat and pick out 3.

          1. Numb
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Unless you get Coquelin and then you just casually put it back in and pretend it never happened.

          2. Back on the horse
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            can we have the draw live on the Scoutcast?

    2. Ramboo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Nah, save the transfer.

  6. ellelelle
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Feeling a little uninspired.. what would you guys do with this team?

    Schmeichel
    Ivanovic Schlupp Moreno
    Hazard Fabregas Henderson Silva
    Vardy Kane Giroud (C)

    Ospina | Trippier | Zaha | Alderweireld

    2 FT £3.3 ITB

    I could use the transfer to swap PvA for Alderweireld.. purely to set up for GW37.. I can't decide whether to bring in Sanchez for Fabregas this week.. And I am not 100% on my Captain.. but I need to be creative to catch my ML Rival would will probably go Hazard or Kun. I could go Hazard and hope he doesn't go Kun...

  7. Granville
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    A) start Harper or Ospina
    B) bench order, PvA(SOT) or Okore(EVE)

    1. Shane Ferguson 4.0
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Ospina
      PvA

    2. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      A) Ospina
      B) PvA

      1. brianutd-why always we? 20
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        ^this

    3. ellelelle
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Harper
      Okore PvA

      That's what I would do.. maybe that's a reason not to do it!

    4. Red Star Toro
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I know Harper made you proud last week but starting him ahead of Ospina sounds little risky, doesn't it? 😀

      1. Granville
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        yes I feel disloyal and it could backfire. Ospina probably but Hull are capable of keeping a cleanie.

    5. super zlatan
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Ospina

      PvA.

    6. Ramboo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Opsina
      PvA

  8. Shane Ferguson 4.0
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Hey TM, who is your (c) and who is on your bench??

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure on (c) but probably Pants, Camb, Duff & McShane.

      1. Shane Ferguson 4.0
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I am asking because we have similar rank (2030 pts) and similar team (your Hendo/Duff to mine Cout/Vlaar)
        I am planing same bench order.... Probably cap Hazard

  9. BIG TONES
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Madness to captain Jamie Vardinho?

    1. ellelelle
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      A part of me really wants to do it... but I don't know if it's madness.. just that it is tempting and I want to be brave!

    2. Egg noodle
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      One of the most in-form teams vs the most out-of-form team?

      No.

    3. Breadbin
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      No.

    4. Ramboo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Yes, does not look very solid given the other options.

    5. Red Star Toro
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      IMO he's third best option after Haz and Kun.

    6. brianutd-why always we? 20
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Erm...probably

    7. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      nope considering it myself...tho maybe im mad

    8. BIG TONES
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Just locked it in.

      Go hard or go home.

    9. Numb
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      No, but there are better options.

    10. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      No, I'm actually tempted to do it too.

  10. rozzo
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Is Giroud a decent captain chocie given Hulls upturn in form? My rival doesnt have Giroud but we both have all the other likely contenders. I am trailing by quite a lot so Giroud seems like a decent choice?

    1. Ramboo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Decent, Hazard/Aguero is a better option of course.

  11. Red Star Toro
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Ok, I need advice from someone who saw City playing recently. Thinking about doing Silva -> Sanchez as it would give me an edge over my ML leader. Will Little Magician play in the hole as Yaya is out? Or is there a chance he'll be pushed to the flank again? Should I pull the trigger?
    Any help appreciated...

    1. Efan Ekoku Pops
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'm thinking about doing the same move. I'm definitely going to do it next week (assuming no injuries etc), but Arsenal have the better fixture this week...

  12. Jones Town
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Who would you bench?

    Sterling - Coutinho - Hazard - Fabregas - Sanchez
    N'Doye - Vardy - Aguero

    I guess it's got to be N'Doye..?

    1. Ramboo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      N`Doye.

      1. royals forever
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        N'Doye

    2. Kerz
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      N'Doye, can't bench the lads against QPR or Palace, and you're not gonna bench Kun or Alexis ever.

  13. royals forever

      1. Efan Ekoku Pops
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers mate! My plan was to not take it quite as seriously this year due to life commitments etc, but one freak GW back in GW8 and I shot up the rankings... I got a little more serious after that! I haven't been on the boards as much this season, mainly due to the site being blocked at work!!! Unbelievable.

        All the best for the final few GWs!

  18. Aladdin Sané

    • 9 Years

    Kane to giroud and/or

    5.0 itb

    1. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Not worth a hit, prob not even worth a FT

    2. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Hendo -> Ozil for no hit.
      Jordan literally quakes in his boots when Gerrard plays on the same pitch and become ineffective
      And Gerrard will start tomorrow, imo.

    6.0 ITB

    Which one should make way for Alexis :

    A) Silva
    B) Coutinho
    C) Sterling

    Or do Kane -> Giroud ?

    1. Ramboo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Kane --> Giroud.

    2. Boss Hogg
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      One of the Liverpool boys.
      But why not wait a week?

      1. United__FFS
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Hull is so tempting . City AND United will win , and Wenger will not want 4th place IMO

    3. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling, he's playing crap

    4. Gazza2000
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      B

    5. Kerz
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      IMO, wait a week. QPR could crumble at any moment...

    6. da Beeeez
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'm pondering identical decision. It's definitely Sterling out of those three for Sanchez, but have yet to decide if that should get priority over Kane to Giroud.

      Based on Sanchez's prior games versus Hull, I'm leaning that way, but still plenty of hours to change mind.

      1. United__FFS
        • 9 Years

        Thx mate

  23. Stats Don\'t Lie
    • 9 Years

    Is It dumb to get rid of hendo before QPR home game in order to get in an arsenal player?

    1. Ramboo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Its not dumb, but i would wait.

      1. Stats Don\'t Lie

        No arsenal or man u this week scares me.
