Our second Premium Members cup competition of 2021/22 is running every week from now until the end of the season, with round four taking place in Gameweek 34.

A total of £300-worth of prizes is on offer in this tournament, with a full breakdown towards the bottom of this article.

We’ve got the latest results and draw for you here.

RESULTS AND DRAW

The results for the third round can be viewed here

The draw for the fourth round can be viewed here.

Our one remaining former winner progressed to the round of 32: Mohd Rodzi (3,367th) saw off this week’s Scout Picks community champion, The Mentaculus (169,152nd), in round three.

Two managers within the top 1k remain in the competition but one other bowed out.

Our previous highest-ranked boss, A.J.,was beaten by Ukraine YNWA (10,524th) 68-56 and dropped from 197th to 629th in the process.

Peteski29 (745th) and I Member (497th) prevailed, while JONALDINHO (1,332nd) was also triumphant in round three despite slipping out of the top 1k.

JONALDINHO’s round four clash with Jamiemac (1,366th) catches the eye, with just 34 places separating the two.

For the second round in a row, K3lvN‘s (163,308th) provided us with the top Gameweek score: 97, this time.

Bob McMayday (33,754th) and mayank_fpl (179,343rd) had excellent Gameweeks, with scores of 84 and 85, but had the misfortune of meeting the aforementioned Jamiemac and WELL YOU KNOW, TRIFFIC (40,500th), who scored even higher.

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:

  • Qualifying – Gameweek 30
  • Round 1 – Gameweek 31
  • Round 2 – Gameweek 32
  • Round 3 – Gameweek 33
  • Round 4 – Gameweek 34
  • Round 5 – Gameweek 35
  • Quarter-Final – Gameweek 36
  • Semi-Finals – Gameweek 37
  • Final and third place play-off – Gameweek 38

WHEN ARE THE FIXTURES RELEASED?

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

      Held back on Schar to Alonso because Schar was closer to rising at midnight, and would've given me 0.1 extra TV if he rose and Alonso didn't. Sums up my season.

      This is too easy

      1. NorCal Villan
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        It’s gotta be performance art, right?

  3. Drogba Legend

    Sa
    Cancelo - Laporte - James - Robbo
    Salah - Son - James - Maddison - Kulu
    Wood

    Foster - Weg - Broja - Digne**

    A) Kulu + Wood > Mount + Pukki (-4)
    B) Kulu + Son > Havertz and Mount (-4)
    C) Something else

    1. luk46
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      who's James in midfield? Ward Prowse? I'd do Maddison + Wood > Havertz/Mount + Pukki

  4. Ruinenlust
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Is it risky to sell Rudi for Alonso for a hit?

    Rudi might play the second game and Alonso might only play one game anyway

    1. luk46
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      dont think its risky at all, even if Rüdiger plays the 2nd game

  5. Letsgo!
    • 9 Years

    Can someone tell me if martinelli will start?
    I thinking to start martinelli or richar?

      1. Letsgo!
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        So will u start richarlison instead of martinelli?

          Martinelli against tired legs.
          Richo should get more minutes/points vs Pool is unlikely though.

    1. sandman58
      • 7 Years

      I just woke from a nightmare that Martinelli put Arsenal 1 nil up early.... nightmare because I'm a United fan lol

    Ideas on this lot?

    Sa Ram
    Cancelo TAA Robbo Schar (Amartey)
    Salah Son Kulu Saka Marinelli
    Weg (Iheanacho Broja)

    1 FT, 2.2 in bank, FH left

    a) Kulu > Mount/Havertz
    b) Schar/Amartey > Chelsea def/Laporte (-4)
    c) a+b and downgrade Iheanacho (-8)
    d) FH
    e) something else

    Cheers for any ideas.

    1. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      A or Martinelli to Elanga.

    2. Thomas Magnum
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      C is very tempting, would you be willing to take the -8 though or would you prefer to avoid if possible?

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        DGW so up to -16 or FH possible.
        Having 3 Arsenal is annoying if I want Nk.

        1. Thomas Magnum
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 12 months ago

          Think C in that case, is there any way to say keep Kulu and lose an Arsenal mid to bring in a Chelsea one?

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 16 Years
            3 years, 12 months ago

            Downgrading a forward could get me Nk and a Chelsea mid.

            1. Thomas Magnum
              • 10 Years
              3 years, 12 months ago

              I like the sound of that as long as you think Nk will keep starting! Iheanacho is just deadweight at this point and has to go, same with Broja eventually

    3. FCSB
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      C

      Kulu Amartey >> Mount Alonso

    4. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      C

    5. jia you
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      B looks good for rest of season, although I'm probably biased as I've moved to a big at the back set up recently...I do it every season at stages, works sometimes, doesn't other times.

    6. luk46
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Martinelli + Iheanacho > Mount/Havertz + Pukki or Nketiah?

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Chelsea mid probably

      1. Thomas Magnum

    1. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 13 Years

      A lot of it was similar.

      I would just go with A personally

      1. bulbuf
        • 9 Years

        Yeah just a difference of

        Ronaldo matip alonso or werner taa laporte

  21. Kane Train

    Most nailed Man City defender other then Cancelo ??

    1. bulbuf
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Laporte

    2. OptimusBlack
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Laporte

  22. Bojam
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Who to captain this GW? Options:

    A. Kane
    B. Mane
    C. KDB

    Don't have Salah. Or any Chelsea/UTD DGWers.

    Mane & KDB are in excellent form, do particularly well at home and both have plum home fixtures this week (vs Everton & Watford respectively).

    Kane's form is also decent, has delivered big hauls in a number of away fixtures, and is on pens. Brentford are a tougher proposition than Watford or Everton though.

    Thanks.

        Cool. Any particular reason over the others?

    2. Bojam
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Full line-up will be:

      Dubravka
      TAA, Laporte, Jonny
      KDB, Mane, Jota, Saka, Kulu
      Kane, Toney

      (Bench: Raya, Emerson, White, Gelhardt)

      1. Bojam

        Cheers. Wonder why KDB over the others?

        1. Sun Jihai
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 12 months ago

          Think it could be a big scoreline
          Best attack vs. worst defence pretty much
          Only concern would be chance of a rest

          Kane - Brentford have been pretty solid, but on pens etc.
          Mane - think this could work, just think there's a chance this game is tigher given the derby and fact Everton are playing to stay up

    4. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Kane

      1. Bojam
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        Lol. Thanks. That's three different answers from three responses. Why Kane for you?

        1. OptimusBlack
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 12 months ago

          LOL.
          all three are good option
          Mane open play match both teams can score
          KDB easy match for city but I feel he may not play 90
          Kane also good option but now take most of Chances

          1. OptimusBlack
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 12 months ago

            Son*

        2. Dthinger
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 12 months ago

          I say Kane because Liverpool and city spread the goals around. Kane is involved in almost all of Spurs’ goals. Plus he’s the only one of the three that’s nailed. Plus penalties

    5. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      A

  23. TheSteel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Alonso or James on WC?

    1. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      I would do Alonso

      1. The Count of Monte Cristo
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        I would also lean towards Alonso

      2. NorCal Villan
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

    Does it make sense to sell Robertson to free up cash for two chelsea players?

    Ramsdale Foster
    TAA Robertson Laporte White Jonny
    JWP Salah Kulu Odegaard Ramsey
    Kane Toney Weggy

      What moves are you considering? Robbo + who out? And who comes in?

        I’m thinking about Robbo and JWP out for Alonso and Mount

    Generally hate playing my keeper against my attackers…

    Would you start:

    A. Dubravka (have Pukki playing against him)
    B. Ramsdale (have no United players playing against him)
