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.

    FOUR

  4. Davido989

    How did West Ham get a point on Sunday? Lol

    1. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Luck ran out. 😉

    2. KingNidge
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      A rejuvenated Mkhi and Martial tonight were the difference

      1. Davido989
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Mkhitaryan is class, needs to stay in the team. Would easily become your best player

        1. Bazzalona
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Not watching it (yet) but every time I see him he looks fast, tricky, sees a pass. Should be starting every game now.

        2. KingNidge
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          He will if he keeps this up.. right now he is very much a first 11 starter.. Tony did himself the world of good tonight too.. we have options which is fantastic and playing some great football.. unfortunately it may be a little late to for a respectable league finish but if we can continue to gel this together from now till the end and add a trophy of some sort i would be happy..

          1. Bazzalona
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            You have him, Martial, Rashford. Loads of pace. I love Mata so him in the no 10 with Mkh and one of the other two would be good. Only problem is that means Pogba goes deep. You can't play em all though can you? Media are like 'why is Mkh not playing, why is Martial not playing'. When they do its then 'why is Rashford not playing why is Rooney not playing'. Can't win

            1. KingNidge
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 8 months ago

              Well this is it Bazz whoever misses out Jose will be getting his balls busted left right and centre about why.. Just happy to see us putting teams to the sword again occasionally after the last few years..

              1. Bazzalona
                • 14 Years
                9 years, 8 months ago

                Exactly. Someone has to miss out. Not seen tonight yet but we played with more pace on Sunday than I've seen for ages. Least we put the chances away tonight

  5. top556677

    Who to transfer out lukaku for? 0.1m in bank. Kun and costa my other 2 strikers.

    Thinking Austin?

    1. william prunier
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      You've lost 0.2m mulling it over already... Tick tock

      1. top556677
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I always get slack on transfer timings. Never think about it until midweek!

  6. KingNidge
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    🙂

  7. The Fantastic Mr Fox
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    All down to Steiger making that quick throw happen

  8. Wilshere Knowledge
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    And you all bought Kane... 😎

    😉

    1. fedolefan
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Damn it, this. Ibra is near essential now. He gets 20 million chances a game.

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        That's nothing new though, has been happening all season.

    2. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I bought Costa 😛

      1. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Ol' billy big balls over here with his differentials. 😀

        1. Somalion
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Even better, I sold Costa weeks ago right before his ridiculous run, and brought in Ibra right before his goal drought. 😉

          1. Wilshere Knowledge
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            And still within the top 2 million!? 😯

            Teach me!!!

    3. Dino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      My plan has always been to bring Ibra in in three weeks time.

  9. JIM BOB
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Who's most likely to nail a regular spot and become an FPL asset?

    A) Martial
    B) Rooney
    C) Mkhitaryan

    1. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      C

    2. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      A+C

    3. Kante Be Bothered
      • 10 Years

      C and A

  10. Ógie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    I can sleep easy choosing Zlatan over Aguero in the medium term me thinks 🙂

  11. Syd.
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Get those balls into the bag and jiggle them about

  12. BadgersBoys
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Ham zlapped.

  13. Jazz!
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    That's a Mkhitaryan and Martial start cemented this weekend. 😎

    1. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Doubt it

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Knowing Mourinho, I doubt it

  14. THE Wild Rover
    • 15 Years

    Zlatan racing Rooney to Sir Bob's record 😀

  15. King Klopp

    What would be a good end rank for a first season playing fantasy?

    zaza got an ibra jersey.

  17. Hurricane Gilbert
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Zaza hunting Ibra for an exchange of shirts. Pretty sure Ibra will use Zaza's shirt as a doormat outside his toilet.

  18. KingNidge
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Think i would rather have Liverpool over two legs than in the final potentially

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Would make for a great final tho

      1. KingNidge
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        It would but the thought of losing it makes me shudder

  19. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 17 Years

    Aguero > Ibra worth a hit?

    1. Emiliano Sala
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      If u don't have kane yes

    2. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Take the hit TM you are only 3 points ahead of me in the OR i can pass you out if you do 🙂

    3. Emiliano Sala
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Noooo stop
      Both have similar fiztures next 3 weeks. Doesn't worth and after 3 weeks aguero will score more than zlatan overall

    4. Chris_White
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      lol

  20. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Feel a bit silly getting Kane over Zlatan right now.

    1. Sauzée
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I'm sure Kane will get plenty of points

    2. Captain Vantastic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Lmao

    3. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Why? Man U not shown any sort of consistency yet

      1. Blunderland
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        And Spurs have? Ibra over Kane any day imo. Wish I had him but cant drop Costa or Aguero

        1. Z
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Spurs 6 goals in 3 games vs (ars, WHM, che)
          MU 6 goals in 7 games.

      2. Emiliano Sala
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        This

    4. Z
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Last time United won 4-1 (in the league), they won 1 in the next 7 - the run they're currently on now.

      1. Z
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        6 MU goals in 7 games is hardly desirable.

        1. Blunderland
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          So you think MU are gonna score 6 in their next 7? I'm not a MU fan but even I'm not that ignorant especially with the fixtures they've got coming up.

          Seen it coming for weeks, they have been so unlucky. The amount of chances they get each game is insane. The goals are gonna start going in soon.

          Plus MKH looks fit now as well as Martial all providing service to Ibra. Could go on a Chelsea run imo

  21. Captain Vantastic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    What time is the EFL semi final draw?

    1. THE Wild Rover
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Coming up shortly

  22. John wick
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Armband?
    A. Zlatan
    B. Sanchez

    Right now its on sanchez....rested midweek..west ham played full team with creswell and Antonio doubtful and sat late kick off will make them tired....

    1. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Sanchez

    2. FPL Panda

      9 years, 8 months ago

      1. John wick
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Nope....its kun ibra costa amd sanchez as captain material.....

  23. andy85wsm
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Same again on the weekend please!

  24. Kante Be Bothered
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    imagine this front 4:

    -----------Ibrahimovic----------
    Martial------Mata----Mkhitaryan

    1. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      That's what we're gonna see this weekend.

      1. Kante Be Bothered
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        hopefully. United have so much talent but Mourinho always plays the wrong team

    2. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Aside from maybe Rooney instead of Mata that's the front 4 most fans expected from the off.

      Sounds like Mkhitaryan had another good game. Needs to be starting in the Prem now.

      1. Dino
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Rooney had his best game in a long time too tbf.

        Hard to drop anyone from that team tonight for pogba or MATA.

        1. Here's Tom with the We…
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Rooney banned for this week though. I'd expect Mata to start instead

          1. Dino
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 17 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            I'd say pogba in for Rooney then. MATA doesn't play 10 for Jose as he is not good enough closing down.

            1. Here's Tom with the We…
              • 15 Years
              9 years, 8 months ago

              Yeah you're right. I actually think Pogba and Mata will both play.

    3. HurriKane
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      timing. see below. why cant mourinho play this attack week in week out.

      so much talent. lingard and rashford still too inexperienced

      1. Kante Be Bothered
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        agreed. Mourinho needs more trust in his players

    4. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Impossible. No club in their right mind would have that front 4 available and actively choose not to play it...

      Er....

  25. HurriKane
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Imo Best united frontline . Any changes?

    Ibra
    Martial Mata Mikhitaryan
    Herrera Pigba

    1. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Carrick in for Mata and 4-3-3 vs the tougher sides. Don't count Rooney out also. 🙂

    2. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Carrick - been their best midfielder.

    3. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I'd actually consider dropping Mata and playing Carrick in a 4-1-4-1. Served us well recently.

      1. HurriKane
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        yeap good point. will give us more balance. this side side could be more attacking for mourinho's liking

    4. KingNidge
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Squad game and if Martial and Mkhi can build on the confidence tonight would have given them it's like two new players.. plenty of options which can only be a good thing

      1. HurriKane
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        cant believe martial is dropped. he literally carried man united last season by scoring 17 goals on debut season

        i think he needs to be given a consistent run to showcase his talent

        1. KingNidge
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Couldn't really argue with him losing his place tbh.. has had chances this season and not really grasped them... until tonight..
          Wonderful talent in full flow

          1. Bazzalona
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            What I was saying above, whoever is out the press ask why that is. We can only play 11. If Martial plays chances are Rashford doesn't. Mata/Rooney/Mkh...at least one of those misses out. I think the press think its a 15 a side game

    5. Lovren an elevator
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Definitely want a front 3 of Ibra, Mhki and martial. By far their most dangerous attacking players imo.
      And Mkhi could do absolute wonders for ibra's goal tally

      1. Here's Tom with the We…
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Agreed. Carrick is the key though, has to play.

  26. Syd.
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    United's next 4 fixtures aren't the greatest otherwise I would be tempted to get Ibra in

    1. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Not the greatest, but from an attack perspective, Everton aren't good defensively and Palace just conceded 5 goals to Swansea. Spurs capable of letting a goal in as are WBA. After that, it's Sunderland at Old Trafford (though maybe Moyesy will get revenge).

    2. I Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Awesome fixtures from GW16.

      1. Syd.
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Def be getting him in from GW16 onwards

        1. Here's Tom with the We…
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Who will you be getting him in for though?

  27. makaveli123
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Good win, West Ham pretty poor though. Payet seemed to have his thoughts elsewhere.

    1. John wick
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Yes yes didnot even showed up for equaliser celebration....jst shot and ran back to own half

  28. Lovren an elevator
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Finally Mourinho starts a front 4 of Ibra, Roo, Mkhi and martial....and they nail it. Best front 4?

    1. I Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Mata in place of Rooney.

      1. Lovren an elevator
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        You think that will be the first choice team then? Something along the lines of....

        Ibra
        Martial Mata Mkhi
        Pogba Herrera/Carrick

        1. I Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          It's the team I would pick. Who knows what Jose will do.

    2. KingNidge
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Mata still brings a lot more to the table than Rooney and i believe Jose knows that now too

      1. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        This is a man that benched Carrick and Schweinsteiger for Fellaini as a pivot. Presume nothing. 😉

        1. KingNidge
          • 11 Years
