The FFS Cup – Sponsored by FanDuel – Third Round Draw

This evening we reveal the managers who have made it through to the third round of the 13th instalment of our open to all Fantasy Premier League cup competition.

For this latest contest there are more than £1,000 worth of prizes for UK based entrants courtesy of our partner FanDuel, as well as £350 in Amazon vouchers to the top three managers at the end of the competition.

Last year’s winner I Casillas Winning’s score of 55 saw him overcome Tufs to set up a round three clash with Allezlechef. Just 10,000 places separates this pair in the overall rankings.

Gribude is another former cup holder to make it through. He beat Allgonepozzo in round two and faces Cok3y5murf next.

Ex-champ MCH also progresses, after seeing off Shem Bayley. He takes on community regular Rhinos in round three.

Sadly, the second round marked the end of the road for another former winner, Ninja Fit Saints, who was beaten 70-49 by Jurgen.

The highest scoring manager of the round and recipient of a £30 FanDuel credit was DaJoeyNdo Show, whose sensational score of 95 left Stoorey’s tally of 40 for dust and saw him leap from 346,603rd in the overall rankings to 57,443rd.

Teguh D Puncak, who he faces next, is unlikely to be worried though as he sits more than 50,000 places higher within the top 5,000.

The four next high scoring managers, who all receive a £10 FanDuel credit, were Captainjpd, Delt_eple, DJDave1979 and Dogba.

Andy85wsm, the competition’s only Scoutcast representative to make it past the first round, marches on. He beat Lardy to set up a third round tie with Anuliz.

Two other members of our moderator and contributor team also make it through. Greenwindmill will face Archie, while Stilicho squares up to lowlifegimpe in round three.

Other notable match ups in the next round include Lateriser12’s encounter with The TinMan, Parm’s tie with TommyJ and What the Fans Say community article writer Bolivian Seaman’s clash with Al Fresco.

The manager to draw the short straw in round three is 433,854 ranked Malvern Angells. He faces Dempele, who at 177th is the highest placed manager remaining in the tournament.

The second round results can be found via this link, while the full third round draw can be found here.

    Sanchez rising tonight us a little annoying, can't keep up!

    Dreading my team value around the doubles

    1. Chris_White
      • 12 Years

      He'll tear West Ham apart.

        Is Moses + Sanchez better than Alli + Coutinho though?

          • Has Moderation Rights

          7 years, 6 months ago

          Alli + Firmino*

          1. Chris_White
            • 12 Years
            7 years, 6 months ago

            Tough one, I honestly don't think Liverpool will score loads now but then again Firmino is outstanding value. Alli is the big questionmark. Moses does look good for the upcoming run, he's got both goal and assist potential.

            West Ham looked woeful tonight. Sanchez(c) for me at the weekend.

            If you have a captain option already, then Alli + Firmino looks the better pairing.

              I have Kane ready to go

          3. Dino
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            7 years, 6 months ago

            No

        2. Chris_White
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          Coutinho?

        3. Z
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          Do you think Moses is any less a rotation risk than Walcott?

          1. Chris_White
            • 12 Years
            7 years, 6 months ago

            I think he's more nailed for now

          2. andy85wsm
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 13 Years
            7 years, 6 months ago

            Think both are fine for the most part

            1. Z
              • 7 Years
              7 years, 6 months ago

              Then surely Walcott offers a better option than Sanchez for the money?
              Just think of that coffee machine!

                • 13 Years
                7 years, 6 months ago

                Not sure Walcott is the best option at that price right now but could be wrong

      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      This guy just hates United. Seen him make multiple negative comments about Ibra and Man United tonight. Must be nervous because he hasn't got Zlatan in his team.

      Maybe trying to justify his selections lol

    Mourinho is one of the vilest & most odious characters to ever grace this game, he is also one of the most successful and best managers to ever manage.
    He has always shown double standards, accusing others of lack of respect or humility but no-one is more guilty of that than him.
    There is has always been a bitter edge to him even going back to his Porto days but his joy of winning and proving others wrong has always been there in equal measure and his record has been undeniable although his methods have sometimes been very questionable.
    Now, I just see a bitter man, Joyless and angry with just his immoral and self deluded beliefs to keep him company (and a lot of dosh).

    1. Ten Season Wonder
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Couldn't agree more

    2. KingNidge

      • 15 Years

      He needs to be loved but nobody loves him anymore and he just doesn't understand why - take a look in the mirror Jose

    6. bojack
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Totally right. He hasn't smiled since about May 2015. He looks like he's on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

    Have to get rid of Stones tonight before the drop. Seems like a no-brainer but im really keen on gettin a Chelsea defender. Which is the better pick:

    a) McAuley + Van Dijk
    b) Ake + Alonso

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      A

  11. Syd.
    • 15 Years

    On WC.

    4.5 to spend on 5th Mid - worth getting anyone or just get Cook (4.2) to bank the cash?

    Heaton
    Walker Alonso Cedric
    Haz Firm Sigurdsson Pedro
    Kun Kane Austin

    Robinson, Amat, Browning, XXX

    Any other changes?

    1. Jimbo-Jones
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      / can anyone see where to get money for Pedro -> Walcott?

      Paid 5.6 for walker so can't downgrade to Rose....

    2. Ten Season Wonder
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      De Roon?

    3. Dino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      I think one more Southampton player may be joining soon.

      1. KingNidge

        We may have something to say about that young berb 🙂

        1. goriuanx
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          Have you seen his radar? Definitely an argument he's the best CB in the league atm

          https://twitter.com/mixedknuts/status/804004306810769409

          1. Somalion
            • 14 Years
            7 years, 6 months ago

            Would like to see him in a PL team without Fonte.

            I think that guy really knows how to get the best out of his CB partners (nowt against VVD of course, excellent player.)

            1. goriuanx
              • 13 Years
              7 years, 6 months ago

              That's a good point, Fonte tricked the world into believing Lovren was good

              1. Somalion
                • 14 Years
                7 years, 6 months ago

                Yeah, he has a knack with that, though poor old Dejan maybe had some big club nerves methinks! He somehow made Shaw not injury prone too. Might have even tricked Arsenal into buying Chambers as well!

                To this day, stunned Fonte never wound up at one of the big PL sides. I understand now his age is a limitation, but I thought after his first season in the PL it was obvious how class he was.

          2. Wilshere Knowledge
            • 10 Years
            7 years, 6 months ago

            He had a foot race with Perez tonight, who is quick, and roasted him. Definitely the best CB in the league whose name doesn't start with a K and end in oscielny.

            1. Somalion
              • 14 Years
              7 years, 6 months ago

              Yeah, KBaillyoscielny is class.

    City and United due to play on League Cup final weekend.. That's going to be off. Are they shiftable to midweek this year? I know some years they aren't due to European action.

      Would be very surprised if Cedric doesn't play all upcoming prem games

      Definitely rested. I think he's more nailed under Puel than he was under Koeman.
