FFS Cup

The FFS Cup final is all set for Gameweek 37

Our second FFS Cup competition of the season reaches its climax this weekend.

Our final will be a battle between two managers who lurk just outside the top 1,000 in Fantasy Premier League.

Rotation’s Alter Ego and LOKOMOTIV both prevailed in their respective semi-finals to set up a showdown between the pair in Gameweek 37.

Losing semi-finalists Skogen89 and Ibra-gum will now contest the third-place play-off this weekend.

Rotation’s Alter Ego broke the 100-point barrier for the second Gameweek in a row and for the third time in five Gameweeks.

He was one of three semi-finalists – including opponent Skogen89 – to use the Triple Captain chip on Sadio Mane, who returned 13 points in Liverpool’s 5-0 demolition of Huddersfield Town on Friday.

Skogen89 was unfortunate to be eliminated as his score of 87 would have been enough to win the other semi-final.

LOKOMOTIV ran out the winner in that last-four encounter, with opponent Ibra-gum the only manager not to have their Triple Captain chip intact and indeed handing the armband to Son Heung-min, who blanked against West Ham.

The semi-final results were as follows:

NameScoreRankNameScoreRank
Skogen898719320vsRotation’s Alter Ego1031280
Ibra-gum61147195vsLOKOMOTIV841859

As of the Gameweek 36 deadline, LOKOMOTIV and Rotation’s Alter Ego shared only six players: Hugo Lloris, Son Heung-min, Sadio Mane, Raheem Sterling, Sergio Aguero and Raul Jimenez.

There is plenty of overlap in terms of team representation, though: LOKOMOTIV owns Trent Alexander-Arnold, Mathew Ryan, Yan Valery, Matt Doherty, Maya Yoshida and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg where Rotation’s Alter Ego has Andrew Robertson, Shane Duffy, Jan Bednarek, Willy Boly, Angus Gunn and Nathan Redmond.

Rotation’s Alter Ego’s main “differentials” are Wilfried Zaha, Diogo Jota and Aymeric Laporte, with LOKOMOTIV owning Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Abdoulaye Doucoure and Sead Kolasinac.

Neither manager has made any transfers yet (at the time of writing), nor do they have any chips remaining.

Ibra-gum and Skogen89 shared nine players in Gameweek 36 and again, neither manager has any chips remaining heading into their third-place play-off.

    After last night, a fresh look at

    Salah > Sterling.

    Yes or no? How will Liverpool react?

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

      Maybe Sterling's turn to haul this week!

    2. theodosios
      • 6 Years

      I'm thinking about that transfer since monday...

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

      Yes for me

  4. danieltbl21

    Hey guys, would love some input!

    Currently chasing a 70pt lead in my company mini league and we've both used up all our chips.

    Which of these are worth considering?

    a) Mane > Hazard
    b) Son > Pogba
    c) Mane + Son > Hazard + Pogba (-4)
    d) Son + Gray > Pogba + Zaha (-4)

    Or any other suggestions? My rival and I share - Sterling, Jimenez and Laporte. He also doesn't have any mentioned above..

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

      Tbh, don't think you can catch up to a 70 point in 2 weeks unless things go really well for you and really bad for him.

      That being said - I would go with (a)

      1. danieltbl21
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah, I'm aware it's a bit of a stretch, so I'm open to taking a huge risk as the reward for 1st is significantly higher.

        But thanks mate

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

      A & © Hazard
      Next GW get Redmond & © him.

      1. danieltbl21
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks.

        However, should I still captain Hazard if I have Aguero and my rival doesn't?

        1. Don Van Vliet
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          Sergio's gonna smash it.

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

          That's interesting.
          I'm backing Hazard this gw personally.

    3. Greek Flair
      • 8 Years

      You’ve got absolutely no hope mate sorry

      1. danieltbl21

        Thanks for that.

      Yep
      Holland 😮

  6. Amey
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Who do we think will score more points in next two gw's ??

    A. Son
    B. Pogba(-4)

    Cheers !!

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

      Son ( Bournemouth away, Everton Home)
      Pogba ( Hudds away, Cardiff Home )

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

      One of those decisions you have to make on your own since it can go either way 😮

      Both havent performed well recently.

      Personally, I would keep Son

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

        Cheers Holmes.
        Knowing Pogba, he'd love to end the season on high by smashing the Hudds & Cardiff teams. Son looks really burnt out tbh. Plays very wide.

        It's like he was a fearful pick from myself on WC (shield 😛 )

        I'm doing Mane to Hazard & definitely thinking about Son to Pogba atm.
        Will wait for more information 🙂

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

          since you have no fear of losing anything, might as well go for it... 😀

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

            Ha ha
            Agreed !!

    3. Kepa's at the wheel
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      I'd keep Son. Up against two attacking teams that won't sit back and park the bus

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

        Yeah.
        Pogba up against Worst teams too 😀
        Difficult decision imo

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

      Tricky one, if Pogba had any shape of form you'd have to favour him, I guess both players are fairly sure starters for the last 2 gwks, both teams going for top 4 with everything to play for... Just think that with Spurs distracted by the CL Pogba is a better bet over the final 2 gwks but the - 4 is slightly off-putting.

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

        Pogba should fire in last two gw's 😮
        Nearly every team playing Hudds gets their talisman to haul like Salah, Vardy, Deulofeu recently.
        So ....

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

          The more I think about it this week the more I'm tempted to transfer him in... We all know what he is capable of as he showed when Ole first stepped into the manager role... The opposition in last two games are bankers to conceed goals!

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

            Exactly. And he's a show off too.
            I think I'll take the gamble 😛
            Cheers mate

    5. Greek Flair
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      With the -4 for Pogba I see it about equal

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

        Cheers mate.
        Maybe I'm biased atm due to fixtures

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

      I'm a risk averse manager so I would recommend keeping Son.

      I think both have a good chance of scoring points this week.

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

        Cool
        Thank you Karan 🙂

  7. Kepa's at the wheel
    • 14 Years

    Random stat but I'm currently on exactly the same amount of points (2,187) that I finished last season with. Yay progress

    1. gellinmagellan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Yay

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

      This is the first season I'm playing the game seriously.
      I think i have my best points tally with 2 gw's to go 🙂

    3. Blue&White85
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      A good season then! I’m 220 points off what I finished with last year. Hasn’t been a good season, particularly for captain picks.

    1. Oscar Slater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      I suspect that City will thrash Brighton on the last day of the season and Aguero will score at least two.

      1. FCSB
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        this is what I'm thinking...

          ty

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

      A1 or B2 is the decision... City are equally capable of scoring big at home against better opposition than away to weaker teams. I'm personally on TC Kun this week but it's due to facing ml rival who is FH this gwk and just 2 point lead in h2h.

      1. FCSB
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        this is true... i just sense a rout on the final day, especially if brighton are safe and city are going for the title

    4. Amey
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      A for sure (home match)
      Ras has higher ceiling, kun is safe pick as he'll get at least on return imo. Choose whatever you like.
      I'd go Raz way for ceiling personally

      1. FCSB
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        thanks mate... im swaying towards 38 Kun...

        38 because it gives me one last throw of the dice against ML rivals

        Kun because he has been my highest points per game scorer

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

          Cool 🙂

    I also have a benching headache with Wilson

          *will be a jammy 1-0 win for Spurs or a high scoring game lol

  11. Holmes
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Salah and Quaner to Redmond and Aguero for -4pts?

    But I'll be losing a differential i.e. Salah in exchange of Kun who is owned by everyone in the league 😮

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years

      You're getting two © for two gw's though.
      One TC too 😉

    1. Amey

      Save if Bobby is fit & play Ryan

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

        Thanks! Is there a reason why Firmino shouldn't be fit given that he played yesterday in CL?

        Also why Ryan over Foster if I may ask? The DS stats suggest Watford have an easier game

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

          Bobby had a muscle related issue so I'd wait for Pressers.

          And i think Ryan has better chance of keeping CS then Foster.

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

            Firmino missed last gw that's what I'm suggesting*
            Also started on bench yesterday

    Plan this GW is Duffy > TAA. Is there a better use of my FT, or any other move worth a hit here?

    Lloris
    Laporte Duffy Valery
    Sterling Son Mane Jota
    Jimenez Kun (TC) Firmino

    Foster Babel Bednarek Dunk

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

      Good move

      would start Babel over Firmino

  15. Majestic Chanka
    • 7 Years

    Jota will surely be a forward next season. Maybe £7.5m

    1. Amey

      Hopefully not

    2. Old Man

    If you had free hit and bench boost left for last 2 weeks which would u use week 37 vs. 38 based on fixtures?

    1. Blue&White85
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Free hit 38. The teams might be harder to predict then so difficult to get your 15 on the pitch.

    2. wernerhedgehog
      • 6 Years

      depends on your bench now.

    So like a number of people I an stuck with RYAN & FOSTER... I am chasing a gap of 14 points. Is it worth taking a hit for a keeper change and if so who ?
    TIA

      Probably not, you are relying on two CS to gain any points and that is minimal

        I do get that but DDG or Ederson are capable of keeping 2 CS

          If you have the cash, but the maximum you can get is 12pts, because there will be few shots on target. With Foster you could get 8pts plus saves / bonus

            Fair enough, thanks

    two people in front of me in my ML.. 20 and 30 pts respectivelly. Can i catch up?

    Leader team:
    Leno
    Robbo AWB Keane Boly Connoly
    Fraser Mane Salah Camarasa westwood
    laca kun jim

    2nd team:

    Ryan
    Doherty Duffy Kolsieny Matip Dunk
    Mane Erik Deleu Pogba Jota
    Jim Kun Laca

    I have 2 FTs...should I get Hazard?

    Ryan Foster
    Robbo Doherty Duffy Bednareek Laporte
    Mane Eriksen Doucoure Redmond Sterling
    Jim Kun Gray

      Hazard could be a good differential gamble. I'd do it.

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

        Thanks mate... so Eriksen + Doucoure to Hazard + 4.2 mid bench fodder?

      I would definitely get Hazard in your shoes - a differential with a realistic chance of a good score. (even though he's a bit of personal troll for me). Watford will have one eye on the FA Cup - none of them will want to get injured. How much have you ITB? Who to take out .... probably Eriksen, but I don't see Mane scoring heavily either, against new or WOL

      That looks ok. It'll give you every chance of making ground on them. Just hold on until after Chelsea's game tomorrow tho. Just in case of injury etc. You could even double down on your gamble and make him captain too!

        Good point about the EL semi-final!

    Aguero appears to be the preferred capt choice this week but for me all stats point to Sterling. What in particular makes Aguero more popular for Leicester at home?

    1. wernerhedgehog
      • 6 Years

      Aguero: home form, golden boot.

    2. b00tsie
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Same could be said for Sterling?

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

        golden boot is a little too far away from Sterling imho. Aguero has a slight edge at home, 15/20 goals@home.

    Can't decide! Currently have Dunk

    A) Shaw, Firmino, Sterling
    B) Shaw, Firmino, Hazard -4
    C) Dunk, Hazard, Sterling -4

    1. b00tsie

      A

    How true is the Lukaku injury news?

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      what news is that?

    Two questions - thank you for help! 🙂

    1) Salah ->
    A) Sterling
    B) Hazard
    C) Keep Salah

    2) Play
    A) JWP (West Ham away)
    B) Deulofeu (Chelsea away)

    1. b00tsie
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      1 = A (if no hit) otherwise C.
      2 = A

        Thanks 🙂

    2. wernerhedgehog

      West Ham is around the 4th worst at conceding from set pieces, I'd play JWP for now.. unless Chelsea capitulate today.

        • 7 Years

        Thanks 🙂
        What about 1)? 🙂

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

          I'd keep Salah unless you don't have Aguero.
