FFS Cup

The latest FFS Cup fixtures and results

The draws for the fourth round of the FFS Members Cup and the fifth round of the FFS Cup have taken place following the completion of Gameweek 18.

We’re down to the final 64 Fantasy managers in both tournaments after last weekend’s games.

FFS CUP

The results from the fourth round of the open-to-all 2019/20 FFS Cup are available by clicking here.

The fifth round draw in full can be accessed here.

Our highest-ranked manager in round four exited the competition this weekend.

Yemop fell to a 53-45 defeat to NielsvanDelft and dropped out of the top 1k in doing so.

Teddy Brewski, sitting at 1,452nd in the world, takes over Yemop’s crown as the manager with the best overall rank in the competition.

He defeated Underdogs AFC 57-34 in Gameweek 18 and will next face Jeanz.

Ujjwal, the only site user left in either of our cups who has an overall rank in excess of one million, will take on Chap of Steel in round five.

Moderator G-Whizz was among those progressing to the last 64, too.

FFS MEMBERS CUP

The scores from the third round of the 2019/20 FFS Members Cup are available by clicking here.

The fourth round draw in full can be accessed here.

Our highest-ranked entrant left in the competition lives to fight another day.

frankiem was a comfortable 66-41 victor over PepRoulette, with the former’s captaincy of Danny Ings an inspired move.

frankiem is now up to 27th in the world, with all of his chips bar the first Wildcard still intact.

sandgrounder is the Fantasy boss charged with the unenviable task of stopping him in round four.

Another FPL boss having a superb season, ActorJeff, beat Pseto 64-43 and moved up to 159th in the process.

His reward is a fourth round tie against sledger, who sits just outside the top 200k.

There are two all-top 10k clashes in round four, with Bubber United facing prbaker1980 and FPL Cot taking on Bun Rab L4D3.

Moderator TorresMagic and staff writer Paul also made it through round three.

    Want to do Son to Alli - is it worth waiting until we get the verdict of the appeal even though it could be a 0.2 swing and it's very unlikely to be overturned?

    1. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I'm struggling to see how it could be overturned

      1. have you seen cyan

    2. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      It looks like Son won't fall tonight. Alli might rise tonight but currently at 98.7 so more likely to be tomorrow.

      1. have you seen cyan

        VAR checking VAR

    3. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Won't be in my eyes. Would be FA going against VAR which would be mad

    4. UTD - HATED, ADORED, BUT NE…
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      No chance it’s overturned. Would send the message that it’s Ok to drive your boot into the opposition in petulance. Just a few armchair fans genuinely expecting it overturned.

    Where should I spend 2 FT and 0.8 itb?

      Son+TAA to Salah+Van Aanholt is what I did

      1. CRO KLOPP
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers mate,an option for sure

  3. UTD - HATED, ADORED, BUT NE…
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    D’you still get an extra game ban for a frivolous appeal? Surely Son has to be nailed on for that if so.

    1. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      If that were to happen, the 4th game would be an FA Cup game anyway

      1. UTD - HATED, ADORED, BUT NE…
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Ah, thanks - probably sell him anyway

    Thoughts on Willian or Mount back in?

    1. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Perhaps but I’m looking at Dilva as a potential 5th mid in a week or so - a touch pricier but the combo with KdB looks great. I’m backing City to score!

      1. JJeyy
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Feel as though Dilva makes city worse at the moment, legs have gone a bit not helping the high intensity press that has been missing, but came back for Leicester. Don’t know if pep will see it that way though

    2. MaRooney 5
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Willian, but I won't expect many double digit hauls

  6. nolard
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    I am not convinced about Alli.

    He seems like a dud....who is with me? Am I crazy?

    1. Dr Dream
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I’m with you. I’ve watched him and i’m not convinced..i’ve had him for a couple of weeks and keeping him this week...but I don’t see a great player stats wise or eyes wisel

    2. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Dont think he is captain material over others like KDB, or a Pool, but he is a player you like to own. A posh Maddison or something, like a swan

    3. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Looking like a Dud, see the next couple of games

    4. Yank Revolution
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Not with you.

  7. Bruce Lee
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Is Pulisic going to play or is it time to sell?

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Sell even if he plays

    2. MaRooney 5
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I think he will play v SOU, but probably sell after that

  8. Pep Roulette
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Martial. Keep or sell?

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Sell

    2. I Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I'm keeping this week to see if they improve with Pogba. Will reassess after that.

    Ryan
    TAA Lundstram Kelly
    Son* Mane Kdb Alli
    Jimenez Vardy Abra
    Button Soy Rico* Dendo (0.1itb 1ft)
    Thanks to advice so far. New crowd - what to do?
    A. Son to a cheaper mid...
    1. Pogba 2. Grealish 3. Moura 4. Richarlison 5. Moura
    B. A plus a hit to get Digne in (Son&Rico/Soy to Digne and any above).
    C. A plus a hit to 'upgrade' Jimenez (Son&Jim to Grealish and Kane/Rich and Rash)
    D. Get Salah even if it means Jimi to Long (-4)

    Gradually I've leaned against C and towards Pogba punt, but I'd love to hear some sturdy views.

  10. Rhinos
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Why are the communiry articles so hidden? Way more interesting than what some twatter punk is doing with their team

    Which WC team do you prefer?

    A. 343
    Ramsdale
    taa Soyuncu Lund (Kelly RICO)
    Salah kdb Grealish ALLI (Dendo)
    Vardy Jimenez Abraham
    (0.9itb)

    1. More Cowbell
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I like A, Greenwood is a waste imo.

      Who's your 2nd keeper?

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        He's not a waste at all if going 352, perfect enabler, and should certainly see some game time.

        1. More Cowbell
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Take your point, but stand by my opinion. This player has Dendonker in midfield so don't expect he's looking to play 352.

    Morning all

    Ryan
    TAA Kelly Lundstrum (Rico, Soy)
    Son KDB Alli Maddison (Dendonker)
    Vardy Rashford Tammy

    1 FT 0.1 ITB

    Anything to get Salah/Mane/Sterling involves a hit probably for Rashford

    A) Son > Bilva/Pogba another downgrade
    B) take a hit like Son/Rashford > Sterling/Pukki or Ings

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      B Rashford to Ings

  13. pingissimus
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    What do people holding Hendo plan to do?

    Got him a week late in 16 as a short term punt as couldn’t afford Guaita and pleased of course but the double up seems to have almost run its course.

    Think it’s the double City that is the clincher for me and may move him on next week but is that too short term? 25 on looks great again.

    Part of the riddle for me is that Ward Kelly guarantee a Palace starting defender for next to nothing for the foreseeable

    Confused.

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Got Ryan on WC last week

    2. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Keeping and playing Kelly

  14. Bruce Lee
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    grealish a good buy or is mcginn's injury bad news for grealish as he might drop deep?

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Can't see that happening, Grealish is essential to their goalscoring

    2. Yank Revolution
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Just brought him in...meant to last week and held off.

  15. jimmy.floyd
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Son to Alli or Richarlison??

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Alli

  16. JJeyy
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Get Salah for son now, or save ft and play Cantwell?

    1. jimmy.floyd
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Get Mo

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Salah

    3. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      the Cantwell thing is best if you can handle price drops, assuming its a -4?

      1. JJeyy
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        No it’s for free

      2. have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        oh idk ft srry didnt see that, but Cant isnt a bad option tho

      For free?

      1. AuFeld
        • 7 Years

      2. JJeyy

  19. Dr. Agabuse
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    What about leaving Son in+playing Cantwell or is Pogba/Mahrez/Alli worth 4more points this week alone than the NorwichMan? so i can do him to KDB next week for free?

    1. Dr. Agabuse
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I dropped already, so the next Son drop wont affect me

    2. FPL Theorist
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I wouldn't take a hit.

    Hi guys,

    Thoughts on whether I should use wildcard this GW or next? Leading towards this week currently.

      • 14 Years

      Wow just realised I've tipped into the 10 years with the site. Crazy how time flies

      1. All about the galacticos
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        i'd like to know how many hours i've spent on fpl in past 10 years.
        I don't think the malcolm gladwell rule of 10,000 hrs to become expert works on fpl

        1. More Cowbell
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Over 10 years 10,000 hours works out to be roughly 2.7 hours a day. I don't think I'm anywhere near that level of time invested. Probably not even half way there, so if you're anything like me, there's hope for us yet!

          1. All about the galacticos
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 4 months ago

            indeed. in another 10 years, guaranteed top 10k finishes!

  21. cravencottage
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Haven’t seen Mahrez come up very often as a Son replacement. Why not? Wirth Dilva out he will certainly get minutes.

    1. Bruce Lee
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Rotation always a risk even with injuries... learnt the lesson the hard way this season with Puli that you should avoid rotation risks

    2. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Pep and certainty go together like Gerrard and Lampard

    3. Dr. Agabuse
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Mahrez is worth the idea since no one will play more than twice in 6days anyway but he could play 433 with Bilva on the wing nontheless

      1. Dr. Agabuse
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        I think you are right with the Rodri omission tho but how long will Dilva be out for?
        At least two weeks?

  22. Bruce Lee
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Richarlison in and capped... good night

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Which of these players do you think will not be rotated over Christmas?

    1) Salah
    2) Alli
    3) KDB
    4) Maddison
    5) Grealish
    6) Vardy

    1. dunas_dog

      2,4,5

    2. Rhinos

      they all will be apart from grealish

    why are spurs even bothering to appeal son's red card? The fact that Son went studs up into Rudiger's chest after he fell to the floor (although soft and despite Rudiger maybe making a meal of it) is still violent intent. I think spurs are fighting a losing battle here

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Soon as i seen it i knew it'd be a red, he purposely extended his upwards and shoved his studs up, he's an absolute bell, no idea why he does these things, absolutely no way it'll be overturned imo.

    Morning all, how's this WC draft? Too top heavy? Just feel like it's not the right time to move into Liverpool mids yet when they are likely to be tired, risk benching and have relatively tough fixtures.

    Guita,
    Kelly, TAA, Aurier, Lund
    KDB, Alli, Grealish,
    Kane, Rashford, Vardy

    Hennessey, Cantwell, Maddison, Chilwell

  26. Shark Team
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Rashford or KDB to score more this gw?

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Rashford

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      KDB for sure, has to be.

    3. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      who knows but I'll back the far superior player in the far superior team

      1. AuFeld
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        I concur.

  27. chaser123
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Please could you give me some advice on this wildcard draft?

    Ramsdale Button
    Lundstram Sidibe Kelly Rico Kiko
    Mane Sterling KDB Alli Grealish
    Vardy Abraham Greenwood

    1. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      the only advice you'll get is make it more like the advisors team

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      pretty decent

      1. chaser123
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks! Any suggestions?

    3. AuFeld
      • 7 Years

      I'd double up on LIV w/ Mane and Salah instead of Sterling. I'm not fond of BOU, WAT, and EVE defense picks.

        Fair enough re double up on Liverpool.

        Do you think Aurier is a better pick than Sidebe?

        Rico and Kiko are bench players for me so I think that’s ok

    my whole defence (inc 2 playing keepers and 5 playing defenders) cost me a whopping 30.9m (If I add up the combined cost I initially bought them at and not including any susequent prices after I got them in (in which case they would now cost 33m)! I like to spend big in the midfield and up front

        most times are having trouble keeping cleanies nowadays

            plus the fact that defenders keep conceding very late on when on course for a cleanie is extremely frustrating

    Martial or Richarlison? And why!

    1. Rhinos

      neither

        Should I keep Martial or sell him?

    2. AuFeld

      Moura - stats and better team.

      Martial if I must.

    McGinn is injured. Grealish might drop to midfield!
