FFS Cup

The latest FFS Cup fixtures and results

We’ve reached the semi-final stage of our second FFS Cup of the season.

The quarter-finals were resolved after the final two matches of Double Gameweek 35 on Wednesday evening and all of our semi-finalists broke the 100-point barrier in this round of fixtures.

Roger150 did likewise but was unfortunate to come up against
Ibra-gum, who prevailed by 123 points to 109.

Ibra-gum is the lowest-ranked manager left in the competition but his successful Bench Boost in Gameweek 35 lifted him 97,000 places to just outside the top 100k.

FFS moderator Rotation’s Alter Ego continued his fine season with a 110-71 win over HPCAMPBELL, who had an overall rank of 262 coming into Double Gameweek 35.

Rotation’s Alter Ego now has an OR of 1,716, with a Triple Captain chip still to use.

Our highest-ranked remaining manager is LOKOMOTIV, who is positioned at 1,298th – that being his best rank of the season so far.

LOKOMOTIV, who beat dark91 102-81 in the quarter-finals, also has a Triple Captain chip still up his sleeve.

Skogen89‘s successful deployment of the Bench Boost lifted him inside the top 20k for the first time since Gameweek 10 and helped see off Hi Ho Silva Lining by 115 points to 82.

Skogen89 is another FPL manager who still has their Triple Captain chip intact.

The full quarter-final results were as follows:

Hi Ho Silva Lining8262631vsSkogen8911517965
HPCAMPBELL71829vsRotation’s Alter Ego1101716
dark9181701011vsLOKOMOTIV1021298
Ibra-gum123101067vsRoger15010973131

The two Fantasy managers who lurk just outside the top 1k, Rotation’s Alter Ego and LOKOMOTIV, have been kept apart in the semi-finals.

The full draw is as follows:

Skogen8917965vsRotation’s Alter Ego1716

      A for me

  3. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    Which player to bench?

    A Jota
    B Jimenez
    C Gray

    1. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      Gray

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        Agre

  4. Tsparkes10
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    Ahhh can't decide between

    A) Salah and Zaha/Rash
    B) Mane and Firminho

    Will TC one of the pool players and feel Salah may be a bigger differential. But 2 Liverpool attackers could also be huge. Hmm

    1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      A with zaha

      1. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        This

    2. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      I have this exact question.

      Have the exact same thoughts.

      Mine is for a hit so I’m looking more long term and can’t help but like Rashford.

      However you’re correct that double Liv attack could be quite differential. Mane(Tc) may not be as big of a gain as we’d both like considering most will captain him and have him-easier to get than Salah

      Hence I think A if you’re catching but B if you’re protecting rank

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        Mine is for a hit also. I'm currently 38k and 8 behind my Rival who has Mane, Robo and Alisson but no Salah. (he has no TC). Have owned Salah previously... Loved it then hated it. Difficulttt :).

        1. Athletic Nasherbo
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 12 months ago

          I’d play safe

  5. Puyol Pants Up
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    Thinking of KDB + Eriksen ---> Salah + 5.9 mid (Babel/Redmond) for a hit

    Thoughts lads?

  6. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    What do we think lads? Still undecided whether to use Triple captain or not yet .... is everything good to go and bench in right order? 1ft zero in the bank......
    Foster
    Robertson Duffy Yoshida
    Mane(C) Son(VC) Sterling Eriksen
    Aguero Vardy Jiménez
    Subs- Patricio Holberg Jonny Valery

  7. Wolfman180
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Play Foster or Ryan?

    1. dunas_dog

      Ryan

  8. DR0GBA

    Safe to pull the Eriksen > Mane trigger now?

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      Yes

    2. YEAH PITCH!

      Yes

  9. palace ash
    • 14 Years

    What's the best TC option over the next 3 weeks?

    1. LSK
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      Aguero in 37 imo but I used mine on Sane in 25 so ignore me.

  10. LSK
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    Gtg?
    Lloris
    Robertson Laporte TAA
    Salah (c) Sterling Son Jota Redmond
    Jimenez Aguero
    Foster Llorente Dunk Valery
    1ft 0.2itb

    which front line strategy do you prefer till end of season

    A: +0.4m
    Sterling • Son • MANE (TC) • POGBA • Jwp
    Kun • Jimenez Gray

    Gw36: Bench Jwp/Gray
    Gw37: Jwp + Gray >> Elliot + Rashford
    Gw38: Jimenez >> Mitro

    B: +1.4m
    Sterling • Son • SALAH (TC) • ELLIOT • Jwp
    Kun • Jimenez Gray

    Gw36: Bench Elliot
    Gw37: Gray >> Benteke
    Gw38: Jimenez >> Mitro

  12. Starky22
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    Ryan
    Doherty TAA Robbo
    Jota Sterling Son KDB Mane
    Jimi Aguero

    Foster Dunk Long Valery

    A. KDB -> Bilva
    B. KDB -> Siggy
    C. KDB -> Pogba
    D. KDB -> Eriksen
    ??

    Both A and B allow Dunk to Laporte next week. C allows Dunk to 5.5m defender.

    GTG? Not sure on bench...

    1. Gianluca Busio's Hair …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    A) Salah

    Who to start?

    A) Wilson (sou)

    1. Pep's Money Laundry

      A

  16. Ange Ball

    4 years, 12 months ago

    G2G?

    Have this feeling Son gonna do well. Seeing all these mane owners plus cap making me nervous.

    Ryan
    Davies Robbo Kola
    Jota Salah TC Lucas Son
    Firmino Aguero Jimz

    Foster Doherty Valery Hughes

  17. Doolittle
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    Any advice on what to do here? I was planning Vardy and Son/Eriksen to Salah and another, but having doubts about whether that's sensible. Another option could be bringing in Firmino, but I'm struggling a bit to decide.

    Lloris/Foster
    Laporte/TAA/Doherty/Duffy/Bednarek
    Mane/Eriksen/Son/Jota/JWP
    Aguero/Jimenez/Vardy

    2FTs, 1.1ITB

    1. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      Would keep Vardy.

      If you’re not playing Duffy I’d get rid and go VVD.

    2. Roy Rovers
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      Saw on another page that Eriksen likely to be rested.....see below

  18. Roy Rovers
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    Worried about Eriksen not playing...would you do Eriksen & Deulofeu > Sterling & Hayden for -4

    Lloris
    TAA Doherty Duffy
    Son Deulofeu Salah (TC) Eriksen
    Aguero Firmino Jiminez

    Foster Hojberg Valery Bednarek

    1. Royal5
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      Eriksen > Mane

      1. Roy Rovers
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        That would be cheating!!

        1. Royal5
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 12 months ago

          Ah. Not sure how you ended up with Firmino. Not sure I'd sell borth Eriksen and Delu, both in good form tbf

  19. hb
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    I have Salah TAA and Robbo. I have good squad value so I also have Son, Aguero, Sterling, and KDB. I'm going to swap out KDB for obvious reasons. My opponent (I'm in a head-to-head matchup) will prob WC and captain Mane. He could Triple Captain Mane but then my matchups are better than his by a long stretch.

    Do I:

    1) Take -4, replace TAA (I'd have 5.7 to work with) and replace KDB with Mane
    2) Swap KDB for Bernardo Silva to maintain a Man City triple up
    3) Swap KDB for Eriksen
    4) Do something else.

    Need some good ideas - please help!

    1. iCon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      He can’t WC and TC in same gameweek

  20. JUST ONE LOMBARDO...
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    Ings or Long? Or any alternatives in the same price market..?

    1. Runaway
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      DCL seems to be the only viable alternative

      1. Athletic Nasherbo
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        This

    2. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      just get quaner and upgrade elsewhere you dont need 3 subs. all of these options are useless

  21. Runaway
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    I am 2nd in my ML:

    1st: 7 points ahead, no Salah/Firmino, probably TC Mane
    3rd: 20 points behind, no Salah/Firmino, probably TC Mane

    What would you prefer?

    A) Salah (TC) + Mane + Ings - 4

    B) Mane (TC) + Firmino + Eriksen

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      A

  22. Ronnies
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    Worth a -4 ?

    Sterling & Doherty >>> Salah (c) & TAA

    Have Mane & Aguero

    Thanks guys.

    1. Runaway
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      If you are not chasing, Doherty > TAA and Mane (C)

  23. SH1M1
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    A) TAA(-4)/Sterling/Zaha

    or

    B) Robbo/Eriksen/Rashford (0 hits)

    1. FPL Blow-In

    Salah gonna be watching the Hudds game in Times Square?

      He’s back sure

      Have you seen the previous article?

  25. FPL Blow-In
    • 11 Years

    Chances of Foyth or Walker Peters getting a game with the champions league ahead?

    1. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      Could see it this weekend for sure

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        That’s all I’d need.

      2. FPL Blow-In
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        Who do you think is more likely? Aurier is out but Trippier already was rested in 2 games before CL matches with City. Will that trend continue?

        1. Athletic Nasherbo
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 12 months ago

          Imagine Trippier out for Walker-Peters

  26. Oscar Slater
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    Sadio Mane is outpointing Mo Salah by 20% this year (approximately).

  27. Waylander
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    For everyone transferring out Eriksen - what's the motivation? He has a poor West Ham at home. Are people expecting rotation?

    1. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      People are but I’m not convinced. He has that rare skill that he rarely gets injured and recovers well after games.

    2. Oscar Slater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      Because Liverpool (Mane) have theoretically their easiest game of the season today.

      1. Will
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        This.

        Just need a fall guy for Mane/Salah and only other options are Son or Sterling

    3. FPL_Crisis

      I’m keeping but looking to swap for hazard next week

  28. Puyol Pants Up

    Anyone considering a Babel punt?

    1. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      Quite a few- great differential

    2. Bobby_Baggio

      Not me but nice differential

  29. YEAH PITCH!

    Trippier likely to be rested again against the Hammers?

    Didn't play either game before city in CL.

    Thinking Trippier -- TAA -4?

    1. Royal5
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      Need a TAA CS just to break even.

      1. Athletic Nasherbo
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        Not sure that argument really works for Trent. Could win 2-1 and he could assist both-wouldn’t he a surprise

        1. Royal5
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 12 months ago

          True, but so could Tripper.

          1. Athletic Nasherbo
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 12 months ago

            Hasn’t shown it this year

          2. FPL Blow-In
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 12 months ago

            If he plays. Trent could be rested too mind.
