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 5 – Gameweek 33+
Round 6 – Gameweek 34+

    Thoughts on Mahrez? His underlying stats aren't that great but if you take a closer look historically he was often overperforming and sometimes by a huge margin. His Last season at Leicester he ended up on 12 goals and 10 assists having xG and xA of 6. He has also quite high points per game stat of 5.5 but in the games he's played from the 1st minute it is way higher. The problem is though, how many games still the end of the season he will start. What do you think? There are 6 GWs remaining and my guess would be on 4 when he starts.

    1. George Agdgdgwngo
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Quite a few he’s on form.

      1. Rinseboy
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        this

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      At least 4 but could be 5. Think he is a quality player who tens to overachieve on his xGI. Great shout and I want to bring in but tricky with a mid of Salah, KDB, Bruno, Martial, Pulisic.

      1. JustPark
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Same mid we have. Thinking to drop Salah myself. Or downgrade TAA and upgrade Pulisic.

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Might just hokey cokey the best mids each week

      Cricket scores for Man City incoming, and he should get a lot of minutes in those games. Don't overthink it and fill your boots.

  2. MGD
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    DDG
    TAA - Doherty - Aurier
    Salah - Kdb - Fernandes - Mount
    Rashford - DCL - Jimenez

    fodder - Saiss - Lascelles - Guendozi

    0.0 ITB - 2 FT .

    Mount -> ASM and roll 1 FT?

    Ta!

    1. Rinseboy
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      looks good

      1. MGD
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Can do:

        Rashford -> Greenwood
        Mount -> Mahrez

    2. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

  3. Pukki Blinders
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Lascelles to Taylor to burn a FT?

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      If nothing better to do, sure

  4. HD7
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    2 FT
    All the input is welcome guys:)

    De Gea,
    TAA, Doherty, Fernandez, Taylor
    Salah, Bruno, KDB, Son
    Rash, Jimi

    Button, Robinson, DCL, Hayden

    A) Rash and Hayden to Greenwood Mahrez and play 3-5-2 (DCL on bench)

    B) DCL to Gayle/ Ings and 3-4-3

    C) Team is ok

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Consider losing son?

      1. HD7
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        yeah I did. Son Rash or Mahrez Greenwood... who knows what duo will do better.
        Son can easily haul like Mahrez

  5. corderz

    Transfer suggestions?

    DDG Button
    TAA Doherty Aurier Ritchie Bolly

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Ditch

    2. Pukki Party
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I'm selling so you should keep

    Henderson
    TAA Doherty awb
    Kdb mahrez(c) Bruno(vc) martial pulisic
    Jimenez dcl

    2. Bobby Crush
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      GTG.

  8. Ninjaa
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Any thoughts on what I could do to improve here. I have 0.0m in the bank and 2 free transfers??

    Thinking of Sako and DCL to Mount (cant afford Pul or Will) and Connelly?? Would play 442. Thoughts...? Chelsea Mid or Foden ?

    Pope Button
    TAA Doherty Maguire Lascelles Kiko
    KDB Salah Fernandes Sako Hayden
    Rashford Jiminez DCL...

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      It's Saka not Sako...

      Hayden > Foden
      Doherty > Boly

      Probably what I'd do. Wolves only scoring 1 goal a game. Doherty not as good then, Boly the bap magnet when Wolves keep a clean sheet.

  9. Rinseboy
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Team gtg?
    Can't decide on Subs order look correct?

    Pope
    TAA Maguire Doherty
    Salah (c) Martial (vc) Mahrez Bruno KDB
    DCL Jimi
    Martinez Nketiah Aurier Fernandez

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Looks good

    2. vityovics
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Correct

  10. Bonus magnet
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Captain Bruno or Rashford

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Bruno

  11. Markus
    • 17 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Dcl or Foden to start? Currently on Dcl as not convinced Foden starts again?

    1. vityovics
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      F

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      We have no idea what Pep is gonna do. Foden could easily start again.

  12. Oggle22
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Best Lundstram replacement up to 5.6m current defenders
    TAA Lundstarm Saiss Egan Aurier

    Cheers

    1. Markus
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Take it you have no man utd spots left?

    2. Pukki Party
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Just short of Digne, maybe Keane

    3. Bobby Crush
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      An alternative could be Ritchie, at home takes set pieces, plays further forward.

  13. theroadrunner
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    play aurier or greenwood?

    1. vityovics
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      G

    2. Garam MOSALAH
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Greenwood

    3. Bobby Crush
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Greenwood up for a rest I think.

  14. EL tridente
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Who to captain?
    A) Salah
    B) Bruno
    C) Rashford

      6 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. Garam MOSALAH
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A

  15. vityovics

    B) Nketiah (wol)

      6 years, 1 month ago

      C

    2. Bobby Crush
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I'd start the striker.

      B,C,A

  16. Garam MOSALAH
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Best £4.9 forward other than Greenwood ?

    1. MGD
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Nhkeita

    2. Sgt Frank Drebin
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Must be Nketiah?

    3. Bobby Crush
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Gayle is just out of reach at 5.0.
      Wonder if he is starting - anyone know?

  17. Hig1990
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Thoughts on this revised FH?

    Pope,
    TAA, Robbo, Dunk
    Salah, Mahrez, Martial, Bruno, Pulisic
    Rash, Jimmy

    Martin, connolly, lamptey, robinson

    1. Shineonme
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Really decent team for Gw 33

    2. Shineonme
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I'm looking at similar

    3. Bobby Crush
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Strong, but don't be surprised if Klopp rests TAA or Robinson.

      1. ‘Tis the Season
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Similar team to my FH..That’s why I have gone VVD

    4. Hig1990
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Cheers guys, may go VVD Over TAA and upgrade 1st Sub just in case?

  18. Cornholi0
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Start with:

    a) McBurnie (burnley)
    b) Grealish (liverpool)

    1. JustPark
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      That's sad.

      1. Lord Flashheart
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        This

    2. Rinseboy
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      a

  19. mysteryDave
    • 17 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Who deserves one more game (and why?)

    A) Aubameyang
    B) Vardy
    C) DCL

    1. Rinseboy
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      B for me out of those based on fixture. Vardy can score anytime he wants and has mattered his stats etc

  20. Srv210
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Does anybody rate Joe Gomez to be a regular starter now.. thinking of getting him

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      U joking?

    2. Don F
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I was thinking the same (adding Gomez)

  21. Felix Navidad
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Sorry, this might be a stupid question..
    If I have done a -8 hit, and I decide to use Free Hit after that, will the -8 still count and that be the team I have 34+ or will my team go back to what it was after 32+?

    1. Rinseboy
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      will reset the hits and team back to previous weeks team

    2. Teror
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      It'll go back to what it was after 32 plus

    3. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      The latter.

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  24. Johnny too hotty
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    I’ve had enough of Abraham and mount so pulled trigger on Jesus and saka.

    Perhaps I’ll regret but do you think it’s a bad move ?
    Also would you play saka or cantwell ?

    1. Teror
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Jesus has looked awful tbh.

      Play Cantwell

    2. Rinseboy
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Jesus gotta score soon in that team. Nice punt there

    3. Sgt Frank Drebin
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago
