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
Ibra-gum101067vsLOKOMOTIV1298

    Lloris - Ryan
    Robertson - Laporte - Doherty - Duffy - Bednarek
    KDB - Mane - Eriksen - Son - Jota
    Aguero - Jimenez - Gray

    1FT 0ITB.

    Any suggestions? KDB needs to go. Want either Sterling or Salah, but would mean a hit in any case? BSilva could be an option, but feels a little "meh"

    1. Puyol Pants Up
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Similar team to mine, same midfield.

      I'm very likely doing KDB + Eriksen ----> Salah + Babel

      1. TRE2
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Cheers. Have been considering something like that. Just unsure on the hit and losing Eriksen. Protecting leads in ML's so probably being a bit cautious due to that

    2. Riders of Yohan
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Could you do KDB to bsilva to get in firmino? Or downgrade eriksen to get in salah?

    3. leho
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Do you prefer Babel over Milivojevic?

      I’m also swapping KDB and Eriksen (keeping Son). And I’m thinking Salah and Mili...

      1. TRE2
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Cheers, good alternative that

  2. footballcandy
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    I'd do KDB to Bilva

  3. Ribus

    Bench 2:

    A) Jiminez (wat)
    B) Jota (wat)
    C) Doherty (wat)
    D) JWP (BOU)
    E) Llorente (WHU)

    Thanks

    1. JBG
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      D and E.

  4. teneighty
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Looking at punty TC options for the last GW.
    Zaha at home against Bournemouth is tempting.

    1. Riders of Yohan
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Would be bold. Thinking aguero if title race is still on

    2. Robson-Canoe
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      GW38 always has lots of goals in it, maybe Son vs Everton.

      1. teneighty
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Not a bad shout, thanks!

    3. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Hazard?

      Leicester defence and his last blue match. 37 looks choicer of course

  5. Riders of Yohan
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    2FT 0ITB

    Ryan / foster
    Robbo / trippier / Doherty / Duffy / bakery
    Eriksen / son / sterling / jota / doucoure
    Kun / vardy / jiminez

    A) vardy + doucoure -> long + mane
    B) vardy + eriksen -> long + salah
    C) eriksen -> d/b silva
    D) something else?

    1. TRE2
      • 6 Years

      Id play bakery

      1. TRE2

        On a serious note, A

        1. Riders of Yohan
          • 5 Years

          Cheers - feel like taking vardy out against this Arsenal team is gonna sting

          1. TRE2
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 11 months ago

            It might. But then still two weeks to go and Liverpool still chasing the league with good fixtures

            1. Riders of Yohan
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 11 months ago

              Fair - you’ve convinced me. What about the TC?

      2. Riders of Yohan
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Lol valery autocorrect

    2. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Eriksen to Mané

      1. Riders of Yohan
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Can’t afford it

  6. Silecro
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    My bench has some good fixtures: Foster (WOL), Jota (wat), Duffy (NEW), Valery (BOU)..would you change something here?

    Ryan
    Doherty/Laporte/TAA
    Bernardo/Son/Moura/Mane
    Jimenez/Aguero/Laca

    1. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      It's a coin toss whether to bench those players or start them. I also have similar dilemma. Just go with your gut.

  7. Catsandhats
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    I’ve seen predicted lineups without salah/mane, and people doubting the TC,

    Is mane TC this week stil the best option? (No salah)

    1. Riders of Yohan
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      I’m still debating the TC for liv. Considering Aguero against Brighton. Hedge my bets as Liverpool supporter

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

      I own Mané but am leaning towards TAA/Sterling (not triple).

  8. Bookmark
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    GTG?

    Lloris
    Taa Laporte Duffy
    Mane Son Eriksen BSilva
    Aguero Jimenez Firmino (C)

    Foster Cathart Hojbjerg Valery

    1. Robson-Canoe
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      GTG, I'm captaining Mané over Firmino but could go either way

    2. Catsandhats
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Not sure on firminio captain, if doubts over mane I’d prefer son

  9. Robson-Canoe
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Does anyone know what happened to Shaqiri and why he hasn't played recently?

    1. Riders of Yohan
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      He did have an injury but still unsure why he hasn’t played recently

    2. footballcandy
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Just lack of confidence from Klopp, I guess. Hendo is suddenly being a bit creative, as well as Keita and the front three are scoring goals. So no need to change it up, I guess.

  10. footballcandy
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Current: Robertson - Salah - Eriksen - Gray

    vs. Robertson - Salah - Mane - Llorente (-4)

    vs. Robertson - Salah - Mane - Long (-4)

    vs. Robertson - Salah - Firmino - Deulofeu (-4)

    vs. Robertson - Salah - Firmino - Redmond (-4)

    Or just swap Gray to Llorente/Long with FT, or keep Eriksen/Gray and save FT.

    1. Robson-Canoe
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      I'd save FT tbh

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

      Save I think

  11. Daxus
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Hey guys
    Who would you start?
    Leno or Ryan
    and
    Doherty or Duffy

    Arsenal looks shaky and are likely to concede against Leicester.
    I also think that Watford can score against Wolves.
    Maybe theres a chance Brighton could keep Newcastle at bay...

    1. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Ryan + Duffy.

      I think Brighton really have to go for this one against Newcastle as their last 2 games against Arsenal and Manchester City will be extremely difficult to get anything from. So it could be a very tight low scoring encounter this weekend and can see a clean sheet.

      1. TheDragon
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        By go for it do you mean try really hard to get a 0-0? They seem to have given up trying to score

        1. Balls of Steel
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          It's now 6 league games since finding the back of the net, however they did manage to beat Newcastle away 1-0 earlier in the season. I can see a 0-0 or 1-0 again. All I want is a Duffy clean sheet and bonus points 🙂

  12. The Curse of Falcao
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    2FT 0.4 ITB,
    Worth doing Eriksen/Son & Vardy > Salah(TC) & cheap foward?
    Ryan
    Doherty Duffy Robertson
    Son Sterling Eriksen Mane(TC)
    Jimenez Aguero Vardy

    36 pts from 7th top 10k finish

    lets do this.

    1. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      What's the name of the site that gives you that info?
      I keep forgetting.

        1. Karan14
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          Cheers!
          This one is different but it looks great.

          41 points from Top 1k. Going to be really tough!

          1. Christina.
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 11 months ago

            nice, great season for you. I have never tasted the joys of a top 1k.
            🙁

            1. Karan14
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 11 months ago

              I'm happy with any rank that enables me to win the MLs.

              Getting into the Top 1k requires alot of luck I feel.

    2. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      You can do it.
      Hoping to sneak inside the top 100k myself.

    3. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Let us gogogogo!

      Nail the TC this week and you are there. Who you going with? (Please say Mane)

      1. Christina.
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Looks like it. Kun out for a -4 is starting to make me nauseous.

        Intend to block ML rival with a -4 to get Bobby F instead.

        1. TheDragon
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          Ye I’m between:

          1. Save FT (and just have mane (TC) and Robbo)
          2. Eriksen & Aguero -> Salah & Rash -4 (and then another -4 to get aguero back next week)
          3. Aguero to firminio (but it’s just storing up trouble for next week)

          1 I think makes most sense but Salah fear is pulling me to 2

    4. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Currently on 47k after falling away to 100k a few weeks ago but nailed BB last week.. Looking for a huge final 3 gwks to propel me to within a top 10k finish this season.

      1. TheDragon
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Very difficult but not impossible - go get it!

    5. XabiAlonso
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Good luck

    6. WE GO FOR IT
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      I was 41 points from 10k. Now I am 7 points. Hopefully, I get my 3rd 10k finish in the last 4 seasons.

  14. jdogg
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    On this for -4

    Ryan
    Vert taa laporte
    Salah-tc mane son jota
    Aguero gray jiminez

    Foster camarasa duffy valery

    1.1 itb.

    Any changes or good to go?x

    1. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Only change I would be tempted by is Gray to Duffy

      1. jdogg
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Interesting.would give me double brighton def.x

  15. Riders of Yohan
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Robbo for the TC?

    1. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      I actually think it could work out very well if he gets any attacking returns and some bonus points.. Clean sheet is expected!

    2. soup natsi
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Inb4 milner on the left

  16. soup natsi
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Tempted by Hojbjerg > Henderson for free and benching Jota instead

    1. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Nah play Jota and save ft

    2. Dosh
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Do you think Milner is a better option?

      1. TheDragon
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        If he plays he is a decent option this week given he is on pens

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

    thoughts on KDB and Laca to Salah and DCL for a -4?
    would give me:

    Ryan
    Laporte Trippier TAA
    Salah (TC) Mane Jota Son Redmond
    Aguero Jimi
    Foster DCL Doherty Monreal

    1. soup natsi
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Sensible

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

      Yep.

      Salah -> Sterling next week

    3. Rinseboy
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      cheers

  18. Karan14
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Start one of these:

    A) Doherty (wat)
    B) Valery (BOU)
    C) Bednarek (BOU)

    Or would you do Doherty to Matip for free?

    1. SpaceCadet
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      A

    2. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Doherty as I can see both teams scoring in sou v bou game

    3. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Easy A

    4. danishdynamite
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Wouldn't do that Matip move with Wolves GW37 game ahead

  19. Dosh
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    How stupid is it to sell Aguero for Mane this week?

    1. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Are you using TC chip? Do you have Salah?

      1. Dosh
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        I have Salah and most likely to use the TC on him this week.

        1. TheDragon
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          Then I think aguero -> mane -4 is crazy (unless you would TC Mane, then it’s just a little bold!)

    2. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      I wouldn't be that brave, Kun great scoring record against Burnley

  20. Balls of Steel
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Are we confident we will see a leaked Liverpool line-up on here before deadline?

    There will be some serious panic stations if any of the big guns are benched...

    1. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Bench is strong enough to cope and a captain switch to Son Or Aguero.

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

      If there was a leak that mane was benched and Salah starts it would be the end of days on here

  21. The 12th Man
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Shaqiri, Henderson,Matip,Wijnaldum.
    Just imagine it. Lol

    1. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Haha, ya total anarchy

  22. aleksios
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Best option is save ft here? 1ft 0 itb.

    -Lloris
    -VVD-Doherty-TAA
    -ManeTC--Eriksen-Son-Sterling
    -Kun-Jimenez-Gray

    ----Foster---Dunk---JWP---Valery.

    Thanks all.

    1. Balls of Steel
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Yes
