In the Fantasy Football Scout Cup XI a further four former winners departed with Tdubb05 losing his encounter with Frazek, No Luck proving too strong in his tie with Jonty (that’s me), while Ninja Fit Saints lost to nicool and sleepingmaster was defeated by community regular Oghash.

Just three ex-champions remain in the third round with mch drawn against community regular Liastro, with Wild Rover preparing to do battle with genkimcclure and Donnellyc set to face dumdumm5

In Round 2’s FFScout moderators derby Andy85wsm prevailed over Greenwindmill and has booked a Round 3 clash with another community veteran, DonTheSpecialOne.

The highest-ranked Fantasy manager left in the Fantasy Football Scout Cup is still 216th placed Chucky 77, who faces 111,248th-ranked whatsupgeeza.

Another notable Round 3 tie is community writer Bowstring the Carp’s match with our resident physiotherapy expert Facer.

A new name will be on the Members Cup this year after all former winners departed at the first hurdle in Round 1.

Amongst the frontrunners is 502nd-placed Peadarb, who is the highest ranked manager left in the competition and faces JonnyLeeds, who is ranked 1,005,727th.

Former FPL winner Dufflinks (aka Simon March) is another. He squares up to David Warfield in Round 3.

    Thoughts on Ozil Sanchez double up ?

    Both looked great against soton and was unlucky not to get on the points last gw

    1. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Just did the double up myself. Feels great

      1. Chicken-Mandy
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 25 days ago

        Arsenal out of form, they have Man U Leicester and Spurs (good defences) in their next 5, not sure ozil and Sanchez is the way forward

        1. Swan - Villa Proud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 25 days ago

          Need a differtial in my ML thought. Willing to take the chance

          1. Chicken-Mandy
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 25 days ago

            Fair enough, is Firmino still a differential? It's between him and Sanchez for me but definitely leaning towards Firmino

          2. Geoff
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 25 days ago

            I'm wary.. Sig and Antonio are the two I'm looking at alongside one of Ozil and Sanchez

        2. HurriKane
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 25 days ago

          alexis ripped apart leicester defence last time around and think north london derby would have goals in them

          only mu is the difficult fixture but then again he did well against last time

          Sanchez is fixture proof like kun

    2. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      I am doing it. Tired of going up and down 10k places having the same team as everyone else

      1. Swan - Villa Proud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 25 days ago

        This

      2. Geoff
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 25 days ago

        I understand this; but having my wildcard, 2fts, and all three chips I'm not going to worry about differentials until late in the season

    3. Optimus.
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Might to Payet > Sanchez... I haven't watched either lately but that's the feeling I'm getting from reading here 🙂

        1. Optimus.
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 25 days ago

          I will have a look 🙂

  2. St. Joseph
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    Dear doosra somewhere out there...
    If u have to choose between these 3 lads :
    Kun / kane / firmino
    Who to (c) this weekend?

    1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Kane, imho.

      1. Pochecinno
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 25 days ago

        You captaining him again this GW?

        1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 25 days ago

          Unless I do Sánchez. Yes.

      2. St. Joseph
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 25 days ago

        Thanks for the advice.
        Cheers.

        1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 25 days ago

          Good luck! 🙂

  3. Mahesh_Kumar
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    Spurs fans, is Mr. Wimmer nailed or a risky proposition?

    1. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Risky but nailed until Vertonghen is back

      1. Mahesh_Kumar
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 25 days ago

        Just worried that he is one mistake away from losing his place to Dier. What do you think?

        1. Pochecinno
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 25 days ago

          I don't think Poch will mess around with the stability Dier has given as a CDM this season so no fear of that imo. Though like Doosra below I personally wouldn't get him

          1. Mahesh_Kumar
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 25 days ago

            Can I know the reason please? I really like the Spurs defence and looking to play one in almost every game from now.

        2. oghash
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 25 days ago

          I don't think posh likes dier as a defender. He nay became a regular starter as a cdm. Plus Wimmer is actually quite good too.

    2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      He's not for me, that's for sure.

      1. Mahesh_Kumar
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 25 days ago

        Why Doos? I just like him because I have 2fts and I can downgrade Dier to Wimmer and get Sanchez. Exact money. Reasonable?

        1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 25 days ago

          1) I have no idea whether he is any good or not.
          2) Kane, Eriksen and Alli take priority. And then there is Alderweireld.
          3) Game week 27 when you will need Simpson, Fuchs or Huth. Or Schmiechel

  4. Pochecinno
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    Evening fellas, what to do with this lot?

    Butland Hennessey
    Bellerin Rose Moreno Ward Williams
    Arnautovic Payet Mahrez Ozil Eriksen
    Aguero Kane Lukaku

    2FT 0.5 itb

    a) Lukaku ➡ Giroud
    b) Moreno/Ward ➡ Simpson
    c) Rose + Payet ➡ Ivan/Azpi + Alli
    d) Other?

    Cheers

    1. oghash
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      A if kaku not fit, arnie to Alli if he is

      1. Pochecinno
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 25 days ago

        Can't get Alli in without selling Rose because I have 3 spurs players already. You don't think Arnie is worth keeping for blanks?

        1. oghash
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 25 days ago

          Ah didn't spot that, I just don't like the guy so might be personally biased. Plus ypu have Erickson I guess. Ward won't be keeping a clean sheet until Cabaye is back in cdm for a full game. That won't happen with all the injuries we have atm, bolaise not back until end of feb, sako still out, punch out now, so maybe ward to Simpson.

    2. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      I quite like a this week.

      Moreno to Simpson in 2 weeks.

    3. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      I think A this week. Ali may not be fully fit given the illness

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      I'd get Vardy if shifting Lukaku on a, though I much prefer c as a move due to Rose's rotation risk.

  5. LVGs Army
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    Best striker for the next two weeks only?

    1. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Rondon, bookmark it

    2. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Valencia could be a good option. Although they have signed a new striker and he should be available. Giroud a good shout too

    3. Arvin-ation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Giroud/Valencia

  6. DGWjegy
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    can't decide beetwen kane and aguero capitan

    kane has better stats and easier opponent

    aguero is aguero...

    1. Lingardium Leviosa.
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      I have both and I'm going Kane.

      Leicester are better defensively

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Kane or Ozil for me

  7. McQueen
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    Lukaku and Stanislas to Afobe and Sanchez?

    Don't have the funds for Vardy. 🙁

    Have 2FT btw.

  8. Lingardium Leviosa.
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    Lukaku > Vardy

    Fire now?

    1. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Wait for presser tomorrow. If he's a doubt, then sell

    2. Backup Dancer
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

    3. how now brown cow

      1. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 25 days ago

        moi aussi

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 25 days ago

          (well Lukaku out anyway)

    4. Geoff
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      I'm holding until 27

    5. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 11 Years

      Patience my young padawan

    6. melvinmbabazi
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Just done it now 🙂

    7. Bøss ⭐
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      I just done it now, not point waiting for another Lukaku price drop

  9. batfastard
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    Wijnaldum captain thoughts?

    1. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Well, it's a differential. Not for me though

  10. Monkey Hanger
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    Ozil to Firmino for free?

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      no

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      No for me, but SO many on here love him

    3. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      No way

    4. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Not when he has Bournemouth

    5. Monkey Hanger
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Thanks all.

  11. I Member
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    Sanchez - Payet - Arnautovic - Alli (Mahrez)
    Aguero - Kane - Lukaku

    1 FT 1.7 ITB

    Was all set on Arnie -> Firmino but now I'm thinking it would be wiser to ship Lukaku and keep Arnie for GW27. Don't trust Liverpool regardless of fixtures anyway and Lukaku -> Vardy frees up funds for me to upgrade Moreno to Ivanovic (Chelsea have Newcastle at home next week). So..

    A) Arnautovic -> Firmino
    B) Lukaku -> Vardy

    1. St. Joseph
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      B.

  12. Syd.
    • 16 Years

    La Donkey or stick with Lu Donkey

    1. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 11 Years

    2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      What are you? A donkey Sanctuary? Do you want Carroll as well??? 😉

      1. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 25 days ago

        You could throw Benteke in along with them as well 🙂

        1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 25 days ago

          We could start a business in Margate ... 😉

  13. Andy1
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    Who's the best replacement for Evans?

    A. Ivanovic
    B. Cresswell
    C. Baines
    D. Sagna
    E. Bertrand
    F. Someone else

    My other defenders are Toby, Moreno, Daniels and Simpson

    1. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Any Southampton defender

      1. Andy1
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 25 days ago

        Which do you think is best

        1. Mahesh_Kumar
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 25 days ago

          VVD of course

    2. LVGs Army
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      E

    3. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      I would actually keep Evans and sell Moreno. Pool suck

    4. Sylas
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      VVD

  14. LVGs Army
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    Thoughts on ozil and lukaku to Sanchez and Martial? 2FT (martial would be a two week punt)

    Should I do both or only one? Any other suggestions for replacements?
    Thanks

  15. Tshelby
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    Don't really know what to do

    1FT
    1.6 ITB

    Myhill, Butland
    cresswell, bellerin, toby, bennett, dann
    mahrez, payet, alli, gosling, ozil
    lukaku, kane, kun

    Get Sanchez for Ozil
    or Lukaku to Costa?
    Feeling like Firmino is a must have

    1. rjcv177
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      Luk to Costa qas my first thought, but United are very good def, and Chelsea plays at StMary on GW27. I went luk to Vardy for advance transfer safe

      1. Tshelby
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 25 days ago

        Mmm maybe I need to get back to Vardy yeah

        1. rjcv177
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 25 days ago

          i went Firmino, eriksen and Vardy for a hit.
          Had to sold Ozil to fund it.

  16. Syd.

  18. rjcv177
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    G2G? Right bench?

    Henessy
    Bellerin, Rose, AWilliams
    Yaya, Firmino, Eriksen, Mahrez
    Kun, Kane(C), Vardy

    Schmeichel, Baines, Payet, Evans

    Would u play Baines and bench one LeiAttack? Payet on d bench against the mighty-styrong-again-defense Saints?

    1. Andy1
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      I'd never use 'd' instead of 'the'

      1. rjcv177
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 25 days ago

        sorry! why u say that?

  19. melvinmbabazi
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    Lukaku and Stanislas to Vardy and Alli for free

    Yay or Nay

    1. rjcv177
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      1 for 2, looks nice.

  20. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 25 days ago

    Ok guys probably been asked a gazillion times but

    Sanchez or Ozil?

    Currently have the latter but Sanchez's constant price rises are troubling me. Should I pull the trigger?

    1. HNI
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 25 days ago

      I brought in both especially looking at BOU and LEI against whom they knocked 5 last time out

      1. Danstoke82
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 25 days ago

        If I took both then it would be one of Firmino, Payet, Mahrez or Alli out?

        1. Swan - Villa Proud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 25 days ago

          Firmino out

          1. Danstoke82
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 25 days ago

            Considering his fixtures though?

      Both. Price doesn't equal points though or we'd all have hazard

      Point more important than prices this time of year. Do it if you think he'll outscore Ozil in the long run

      I'[ve gone for both myself.

        If have to shift one of;

        A) Mahrez
        B) Payet
        C) Firmino
        D) Alli

        To accommodate both. Usually I'd go with C but his next two Fixtures look tasty?
