This afternoon we reveal the results from the fifth rounds of the Fantasy Football Scout Cup XII and Members Cup VI as well as roll out the sixth round draws that take place in Gameweek 28.

In a low scoring Gameweek, in which the Fantasy Premier League average was just 33 points, Nickofoz and LeedsUtd both achieved the fifth round of the Fantasy Football Scout Cup’s highest score of 60.

Nickofoz, who is ranked 4019, will be optimistic of staying in the competition after drawing Emirates12, who is ranked more than 187,000 places below him. Leeds Utd, who is ranked just outside of the top 10,000, has another favourable Round 6 tie, against 425,229 placed Khan fc.

The highest ranked manager in the Fantasy Football Scout Cup is 1659 placed coffee-geek, who takes on konman in Round 6. Meanwhile, community regular Numb faces Jhammer47 in the next round.

The full Fantasy Football Scout Cup XII Round 5 results can be found here, while the Round 6 draw can be found here.

In the Members Cup, 114 placed Peadarb remains the favourite. He is the highest ranked managed left in the competition and in Round 6 takes on Jimgranty, who has a rank of 340,825.

With a score of 65 Down Under was Round 5’s highest scorer and with an overall placing of 3812 is the second highest ranked manager in the competition. He faces Bend It Like Bennett in Round 6.

Another notable matchup in the Members Cup is community veteran Rasping Drive’s tie with Doctor 101.

    Liverpool's Albert Moreno cruelly overlooked at the Oscars, as well. He's been pretending to be a Premier League defender for two years now.

      Nah, crap acting imo

              Fixtures are a bit poo, with a blank!

  4. Hands Guber

    Two questions for you cowboys;

    (1) Do you have any ML rivals who DON'T use or DON'T KNOW about FFS? and

    (2) Can I be in that league?

    In a work ML and every single one of us uses FFS so it's difficult to make up ground where they have a ready source of dullard/sensible intel every week.

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 3 days ago

      Dunno, I'd have to ask them, but if I ask them they would then know.

        Exactly.

    2. The Red Devil
      • 10 Years

      you could be in that league, but sadly, i'm not a cowboy

    Best move here? 1FT 0.6m itb

    Forster
    Alderweireld,Daniels,VVD
    Sanchez,Özil,Payet,Mahrez
    Aguero,Kane,Vardy

    McCarthy,Alli, Simpson, Cedric

    1. Save
    2. Sanchez > Barkley
    3. Kane > Lukaku

      1

  6. sinik
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 3 days ago

    rp. midfield of Sanchez, Ozil, Alli, Mahrez, Payet..2FT and no money itb

    think it's time to sell Sanchez and have money available in case of emergency

    Barkley is an option even with his blank..Siggy is an option with his coming fixtures and current form..

    hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

    1. KingNidge
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 days ago

      Is this a question mate?

      1. sinik
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 3 days ago

        haha yes..not sure who to sell him for 🙁

        1. KingNidge
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 3 days ago

          woefully short of form for sure but all it takes is one to go in off his backside and he could go on to knock in another one or two.. i just couldn't sell Sanchez before this next game personally..

          1. HVT
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            10 years, 3 days ago

            Same here Kn.

            1. KingNidge
              • 10 Years
              10 years, 3 days ago

              selling Ozil for him was a big mistake but iv made my bed now so im going to lie in it.. im sure im starting to sound like a broken record but he remains one of the only mids capable of knocking in braces and hat tricks for fun when he's on it.. just needs one to go in first

              1. sinik
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 12 Years
                10 years, 3 days ago

                it's an expensive waiting game for a player that might not even play GW30 and has tough/important matches until then (across all comps)

                1. KingNidge
                  • 10 Years
                  10 years, 3 days ago

                  take ur point mate he's out the door for me next week just dont have the swingers to do it before Swansea.. if u want my advice id go Payet > Man City.. then ditch Sanchez next week

                  1. sinik
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 12 Years
                    10 years, 3 days ago

                    don't have the money for that unfortunately

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 days ago

      If its any consolation mate, I went it full gusto to do Sanchez > Eriksen and then stared at the dreaded screen for a few mins before hitting confirm.

    Schmeichel
    Bellerín - VVD - Azpi
    Mahrez - Firmino - Ozil(c) - Payet - Arnie
    Costa - Vardy

    Bench: Cech - Deeney Toby Williams

    G2G?

    1. Bayas'ed
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 days ago

      Toby over VVD?

      1. Ibracadabra´s Spell
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 3 days ago

        Why?

        I bought VVD this week (not eyet but I want to) to play him.

  8. HVT
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 3 days ago

    Play
    A - Simpson (WBA, no Kantè)
    B - Wolly (Newc, playing Butland)
    Thanks.

    1. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 3 days ago

      A for me.

      1. HVT
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 3 days ago

        Cheers bro-I suppose it makes sense.

  9. EmreCan Hustle
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 3 days ago

    How does Kante's absence affect the Leicester defense?

    Play Simpson or Daniels?

    Thanks.

    1. 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 days ago

      Probably negatively, but still play Simpson

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 3 days ago

        Cheers. If it was Fuchs it wouldn't have been a problem coz he can easily match Daniels for baps.

  10. Lallana_
    • 12 Years

    You guys keeping Sanchez? I assume Arsenal will beat Hull and have an upcoming blank coming up anyways.

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 3 days ago

      Aye.

  11. TheBusDriver
    • 10 Years

    Bench one from:

    Payet, Alli, Firmino

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 3 days ago

      Firmino. But Alli might be injured.

      1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…

      10 years, 3 days ago

      Looking ahead to next game week, my plan all along has been to do Payet and Sanchez to Siggy and Silva but with trying to maximise as many dgw'ers as possible without wildcarding would it not be better to bring in Silva and another City mid instead of Siggy? And spend the rest of the gameweeks after 30 loading up on LIV and EVE players? To keep the option of saving a wildcard for gw36 open

      who is captaining Kun?

      1. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 3 days ago

        He's 3rd in line for my captaincy.

      4. Jafalad
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 3 days ago

        Not me. Even thinking of benching him but Alli's gametime bothers me so he's first rubber-dub.

        1. Hibbo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 3 days ago

          Benching Aguero is madness.

          1. Jafalad
            • 16 Years
            10 years, 3 days ago

            Is it though?

            Knackered from final. Will likely be protected from the usual hamstring injury.

            1. Piggs Boson
              • 14 Years
              10 years, 3 days ago

              He's got 4 days recovery. He will get a rest next week. People say this every season and he always ends up starting.

              I dare you to bench him 🙂

              1. Jafalad
                • 16 Years
                10 years, 3 days ago

                I'm not. Alli's da man.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 3 days ago

          didn't he have a handful of good chances vs Liverpool yesterday? I imagine the cup could act as a 'warm-up' to this game even if he played 120 minutes..

        • 12 Years
        10 years, 3 days ago

        I plead the fifth

      5. :
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 days ago

        He was my original choice but I'm surprised at how that game's been priced up by the bookies.

        Something stinks.

    • ☆Khaz
      • 10 Years

      Payet > Eriksen a sensible move? Have no TOT mids atm.

      Also have Sanchez+Özil likely to blank gw30, but I'm not ready to drop Sanchez this week.

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 3 days ago

        Next 2 fixtures not the best for Spurs. Maybe wait a weeK?

    • GuyIncognito
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 3 days ago

      Thinking of bringing in Depay, seems like madness but he had a storming game against Arsenal, albeit with nothing to show from it fantasy-wise.

      1. Epic Fail

          Yeah...he's a non-politician so it might pay to have someone who know how to run a business at the helm.

          A detestable little man.

        Horrible knee-jerky move worse than doing Kun -> Sanogo.

        1. Jafalad

          That sums it up 😛

        frustrating for sure.. was looking to captain but will hold and hope

        1. FPL Daniel
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 3 days ago

          He's excellent captain this week admit it

      Need a defender up to 4.6m. I guess someone with a double coming up would be nice.

      dare i look at the Newcastle defence?!

      @ Epic - you got Stoke down for a cs mate?

      1. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 3 days ago

        If I had to bet on one team getting one it would be them.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years

          Even with a rested Newc side?
          (I know they are crap but Stoke just seem to concede most games right now)

    • XABI 15

      Currently need 3 more players to field a starting XI in gameweek 30. I have 3 FT left.

      Three options:
      1. Ighalo to Lukaku this week, resulting in a -4 in next couple gameweeks to get XI starters gmwk 30. (bench silva this gameweek).
      2. Ighalo to Kane and bench Silva (no hits down the line)
      3. Save and start Silva (no hits down the line)

      Your thoughts would be very much appreciated.

      How many teams do we think will end up with a DGW in GW37?

      I believe we will get 8 actually. Therefore I am considering the route of TC in DGW34 (Özil most likely), WC in GW36 and BB in GW37.

      Anyone think we will only get 4?

        Depends on FA Cup results.

        1. Hobolicious
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 3 days ago

          Yeah, I am just trying to start a discussion on what people think will be the likely outcome.

          I believe Everton, Liverpool, Manchester United, West Ham, Sunderland, Arsenal, Crystal Palace and Chelsea will get a DGW in GW37.

            1st 4 are guaranteed. Hull could change things quickly.

    • Rider on the Storm

      Best midfielder to replace Firmino?
      I already have Payet, Ozil, Alli, Mahrez.

      1. XABI 15
        • 10 Years

        Sigurdsson after Arsenal, great fixtures after that

        1. Rider on the Storm
          • 14 Years

          Did his rush come to an end or is he still strong?

      1. The Red Devil
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 days ago

        not too keen on a 5 man midfield, but if you suggest 5 man midfield, who'd you bench this GW?
