The fourth round of our FFS Cup took place in Gameweek 32+, with 64 Fantasy managers whittled down to 32 after its conclusion.

The fifth round is scheduled to play out in Gameweek 33+, the deadline for which is at 11.30am BST on Saturday.

ALL RESULTS FROM THE FOURTH ROUND CAN BE VIEWED HERE
THE FULL DRAW FOR THE FIFTH ROUND IS AVAILABLE TO VIEW HERE

Former winner Wild Rover saw off Hafizi39 in the round of 64 and will now take on Cailean_2 this weekend.

billybly was our highest-ranked FPL boss left in the competition but exited in the fourth round and dropped out of the top 1k in the process.

Manisaspor, who sits at 1,591st in the world, now takes on that mantle, with Dial Square just 35 places behind.

Johnnex023 was the only one FPL manager in round four who posted a triple-figure score in Gameweek 32+, racking up exactly 100 points.

Every single one of our remaining 32 managers is ranked inside the top 300,000.

HOW DO THE CUP COMPETITIONS WORK?

The FFS Cup is very similar to the Fantasy Premier League’s own cup game.

Entrants who qualify for the first round were randomly drawn against each other and the winner of the tie is whoever has the highest score from that Gameweek, minus points spent on transfers (like in the original game and in head-to-head scores).

In the event of a draw, the manager highest in the overall FPL rankings after the tie will progress.

WHAT IS THE GAMEWEEK SCHEDULE?

The FFS Cup competition will be played out according to the following proposed Gameweek schedule:

Fantasy Football Scout Cup Round Dates
Qualifying – Gameweek 28

Round 1 – Gameweek 29
Round 2 – Gameweek 30+
Round 3 – Gameweek 31+
Round 4 – Gameweek 32+
Round 5 – Gameweek 33+
Round 6 – Gameweek 34+
Quarter-Final – Gameweek 35+
Semi-Finals – Gameweek 36+
Final and third-place play-off – Gameweek 37+

WHEN ARE THE FIXTURES RELEASED?

Where possible, the fixture list for each round will be published before each Gameweek deadline.

    Thoughts on Willian when I get priced out of Pulisic? Nailed? More worried about cameos.

      After this game, Chelsea fixtures are not great.

      1. Moderately content penguin
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 22 days ago

        Depends a bit on SU Palace - pre lockdown form looks shot and monitoring them closely this week - currently on Tammy!

        The move I’m thinking of is switching Son Tammy to Kane plus one. Have Greenwood as potential 7th/8th attacker. Looks sideways but right now feels like 2 upgrades

      6 years, 22 days ago

      ‘Will‘ be nailed after a brace against West Ham surely - on pens and free kicks, does anyone else feel like there has been loads of penalties since the restart ? zero evidence to back it up.

        Effort levels for remaining games should be through roof as likely to leave

        I have doubled up Will and Pul

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 22 days ago

          Thought exactly the same after looking at his upturn in form - in the shop window

        2. Moderately content penguin
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 22 days ago

          Oooh - that could be really tasty - haven’t seen anyone else on double Chelsea attack.

          They’re still a bit flaky but there’s defo potential there.

  2. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Please help , have two free transfers:

    A son Davies and doherty to mahrez pulisic and said for -4
    B Davies vardy Doherty to mahrez giroud Saïss for -4
    C Davies and vardy to mahrez and Nketiah

    1. Lumberjack
      • 11 Years

      C

    2. Vazza
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      A might be the best one

  3. Positive vibes
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 22 days ago

    Pope
    TAA, Maguire, Doherty, Lascelles
    Salah, KDB, Fernandes, Mahrez
    Rashford, Jimenez
    3.9, Saiss, Nketiah, Hayden (1FT, 1.3m itb)

    A. Save FT

    What to do with this lot?

    Pope (McCarthy)
    Alexander-Arnold, Maguire, Doherty (Taylor) (Egan)
    De Bruyne, Salah, Sarr, Fernandes (Cantwell)
    Calvert-Lewin, Rashford, Jiménez

    2 FTs, 2.2 in the bank.

    a) Cantwell + DCL > Mahrez + forward up to 4.7
    b) Sarr to Mahrez & a 2nd transfer to find 0.2 selling DCL/Egan
    c) Upgrade Cantwell & McCarthy and BB
    d) something else

    Thanks in advance.

        • 17 Years
        6 years, 22 days ago

    4. Positive vibes
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Has Moderation Rights

    5. drughi
      • 16 Years

      B looks best for me, egan > holgate

    6. Lumberjack
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      B I think, and downgrade Egan

    7. Lord Flashheart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      C is very tempting

    8. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      Sarr Cantwell >> Pulisic Foden
      BB

    9. Free Hat
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      Maybe Sarr to Willian/Pulisic this week

    10. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

    11. notlob legin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      Have you considered BB wk 34+ ?

      I would keep Sarr for then - Norwich at home

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Has Moderation Rights

        6 years, 22 days ago

        Checked my captain stats last night, I’m on a real roll since WC 21 - average 20 captain points - just consistently rubbish teams

        Mane is all wrong this week 🙂

        1. Amey
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 22 days ago

          1. Moderately content penguin
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 22 days ago

            I just picked the wrong team - I imagine you’re ahead.

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      I have him and have considered it. I just worry he isn’t in form. Poor vs city

    3. linkafu
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      Can be a differential captain if Salah and Bruno blank

    4. Sgt. Schultz
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      Could be Gold.

  7. linkafu
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 22 days ago

    Choose a pair:

    A Pope + Taylor

    B Henderson + Robinson

    1. WVA

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years

      11 looks right and hope Foden is benched.

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 22 days ago

        I'm hoping he plays as I suspect one of my 11 will miss out for one reason or another

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 17 Years

    Nyland - Lascelles - DougLuiz - Egan

    A) Auba > Kane

    C) Do both for a -4 ?

    or should I be considering a -4 for Salah(C) + 7.0 striker combo?
    Thanks a ton!

    Gents... your help here.. on Wild card now and with the intention of using the bench boos on Week 34;

    Martínez / Lloris
    /Wan Bis/Doherty/TAA/........holgate /saiss
    Salah/bruno/Mahrez/Foden/Antonio
    Greenwood/Jesus......../ Calvert (dcl)

    Thoughts? Good to go?

    Or

    TAA to Diop / and Mahrez/foden to kdb/pulisic

    Thanks

    1. Easy Cheesy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      Yep. Nice team. Only issue w BB is foden/ greenwood might not play and mahrez could get rotated. That risk is there every week though unless you have zero liv/ city/ youngsters

      1. Don F
        • 6 Years

      Did the Bruno injury saga ever get resolved ?

      1. Iwantmorepointsthanks
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 22 days ago

        there never was an injury saga.

        they even closed a thread on a United forum when it became clear that it originated from a parody website and nobody ITK heard anything substantiating any injury rumours.

      2. TorresMagic™

  12. Bury94
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 22 days ago

    Auba -> Ings
    Norwood -> Antonio

    Best to do it for free next week rather than do it for a hit now right?

    1. linkafu

      Wait

  13. UnitednationsXI

    Morning dzzz, Gtg here? Have 0.2m left. Any hits needed?

    Ddg
    Taa • Doherty • Lamptey -- Holgate Kiko
    Kdb • Salah • Bruno • Pulisic -- Guendouzi

    1) Who to captain? Bruno or Salah?
    2) Any changes needed?

  14. snowman
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 22 days ago

    1. Rashford or 2. Bruno for the C????

    1. Positive vibes
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      Tempted to Rash as I think the Utd attacking pts wil spread. And maybe now is Rash time.

  15. Plagued by indecision
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 22 days ago

    Anything worth changing here or roll the FT? TC, BB and FH left. Very far behind in ML.

    Pope
    Doherty / AWB / Aurier
    Salah / Son / Martial / Mahrez
    Rashford / Jimenez

    Subs: Martinez / Saiss / Lascelles / Nketiah

    1. Hulk Smash
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      I saw your post from last night. I'd TC Mahrez. He looks very dangerous and after starting so many games but being rested against Liverpool, he's almost guaranteed to start. City are by far the best attacking team at the moment so if he starts I'd be amazed if he doesn't get returns.

      1. Plagued by indecision
        • 15 Years
        6 years, 22 days ago

        Thank you. I think that has made up my mind.

  16. lampsblues
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 22 days ago

    Hello!
    Is Son to Mahrez for -4 worth it?

    (Son got Bournemouth after Eve and Pep roulette quite puts me off?!)

    My team:

    Patricio
    TTA Wbissaka Doherty
    KDB Salah *Son Bruno Pulisic
    Greenwood Jimenez

    1. Positive vibes

  17. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 22 days ago

    Which transfer is best assuming I start them and we get Rockstar line up news?

    A) Auba and Doucoure --> Maupay and Mahrez

    B) Auba and Doucoure --> Greenwood and Mahrez

    Option B allows me to have 3.6m to do Mahrez to Sterling the week after

    1. LC1
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      Greenwood over Maupay

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 22 days ago

      Your squad has sound basics but I'd get some more Man city and Utd in quick - AWB, Greenwood, Martial and Rashford + Foden, Mahrez - the choice is wide. I'd use your WC and take out Soy, Cantwell, DCL & Jota - it depends entirely on what you are trying to achieve - a better OR or a win in your members league. Who are your keepers?

  19. Vazza
    • 6 Years

    Who is going to score more points this week -

    A. Jota vs ARS

    Which option do you prefer ? (Already own Fernandes)

    A. Rashford & Foden

    B. Martial & Greenwood

      Greenwood and Willian/Pulisic?

    What do we think about the Fernandes ‘injury’?

    WC any thoughts? Keeping funds to allow rotation of city assets (eg could bring KDB in for Mahrez next week).

    Pope / 3.9

    AWB / Jonny / TAA / Holgate / Kiko

    Salah / Mahrez / Foden / Bruno / Pulisic

    Rashford / Jiménez / Nketiah

      Yeh looks decent
      Near identical to my back / fwd
      I kept kdb cause I didn’t want to buy him back at current value

        Good work, I lost 0.6 on him, just got a feeling he might be rested this weekend?

          Fair point, guess he’s one of many in contention for a rest
          Go with your gut

          Ive taken KDB out for Mahrez this week as part of 2ft but plan to bring him back in straight away and will take one of Mane/Salah out.

    What would you do:

    Patricio Martin
    TAA Doherty Maguire Lascelles Kiko
    KDB Son Bruno Martial Richarlison
    DCL Jiminez Nketiah

    2FT / 0.7IT

    A) Richa + Son --> Foden + Salah
    B) Rich --> Mahrez and save FT
    C) other suggestion

    Cheers!
