FFS Cup

The latest FFS Cup fixtures and results

The draws for the fifth round of the FFS Members Cup and the sixth round of the FFS Cup have taken place following the completion of Gameweek 19.

As planned, we skipped Gameweek 20 due to the swift turnaround between the two sets of fixtures.

We’re down to the final 32 Fantasy managers in both tournaments after the Boxing Day games.

Two of our three remaining site users who lie outside the top 150k, Coquelino and A Team Has No Name, meet each other in round six.

    Vardy or Raul for captain?

    1. Lord of Ings
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Vardy imo.

    2. Lev Yashin
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      V for me but if I had J, he'd get the job.

    3. drughi
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      vardy the safe bet but watford concede alot of chances in the box so jimmy is a good option aswell

    4. YuvalFPL
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      vardy is the safer pick. will go down the wire this one..

  2. manu4life99
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Absolute fail of a WC and big red arrow.

    What do to with this mess? (1ft)

    Ramsdale
    TAA Aurier Soy
    Salah KDB Grealish Martial
    Vardy Kane Maupay

    McGovern Traore Lund Rico

    1. YuvalFPL
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      good team, save and consider shipping Aurier soon.

    2. wulfrunian
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      save imo.I think you need to decide if you want to play 3-5-2 or
      3-4-3.Also there is too much value in your defence.

    3. Arfaish
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I wouldn't want Ramsdale in my team, Bournemouth look really poor. Ryan or Kasper the better shouts

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

      Almost same WC team (Ings/Aguero not Kane/Maupay)

      Only regrets for my WC is Aurier and Ramsdale. But have to give them some GWs before I dump them.

      1. manu4life99
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Got distracted by the rotation risks. Should have gone Alli Jimi over Kane Traore.

        Plan for gw22 is

        Kane,Grealish,Aurier > Sterling,DCL,Webster (-4)

        Then Sterling out for Mane dgw24

    5. Pipermaru
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      DOn't like Ramsdale, Kane, Grealish. Save this week, I would play Traore for Grealish but that's just me.

      I would swap Ramsdale for Fabianski, Kane+Grealish opens a lot of options, Rashford+Maddison maybe?

      1. manu4life99
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks gower about gw21 save

        Gw22
        Kane Grealish Aurier to Sterling Dcl webster (-4)

        Gw23 save

        Gw24 Sterling to Mane

        1. Pipermaru
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Ah, Sterling as a placeholder for Mane in gw24? I've seen it already today. It may work, I don't like it much but hey, it's just my opinion, I've kept Sterling for 16 weeks and he sunk my season so maybe that's the reason 🙂

  3. Lord of Ings
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Kdb or salah captain? Could either be rested?

    1. No Professionals
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Both could be

      Vardy the safe option

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        This

  4. Lev Yashin
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Planning ahead (he says, not having a clue what he's doing):

    1) Soy + Grealish -> TAA + Traore
    2) Tomori + Grealish -> TAA + 4.3m fodder + spare change for LIV attack

    1. YuvalFPL
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Get TAA, Traore and another cheap defender in. Will this allow another liverpool attacker?

      1. Lev Yashin
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Long term it will.
        Cheers.

  5. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Best 3rd forward option?

    A) dcl
    B) Maupay

    1. Lev Yashin
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      DCL

      Maupay is an average fraud.

      1. Jebiga
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        I not agree on Maupay. Whole Brighton playing for him these days...

    2. Tower Bridge
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Ings??

    3. Jebiga
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Until the end of the season: Rashford, Abraham and Vardy

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

      Whats wrong with Ings?

  6. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    GTG?

    Ryan
    Soy TAA Kelly
    KdB Mané Alli Traoré
    Vardy(c) Rashford Ings

    Bench: Gazza Grealish Rico Lund
    0 FT, 1.4 ITB

    1. RamaJama

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 10 Years

        Cheers

  7. Tower Bridge
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Well that didn’t go so well.
    44 points in GW 20 and a 60k drop to 126k.
    Current squad.
    Pope Button
    TAA Soyuncu Lord Kelly Aurier
    Salah KDB Maddison Alli Cantwell
    Vardy Ings Jiminez

    I have 2FT and 1.8 mill ITB
    Pope is getting one more week and will be changed most likely to Ryan.
    The other questions surround Aurier (5m) who I can’t be doing with. Alli who looks good must be due a benching and isn’t getting points. And also time to shift Maddison.
    Any suggestions most welcome.

    1. YuvalFPL
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Maddison and Dele could both haul, be wary.

    2. cigan
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Keep Maddison

    3. Pipermaru
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      It's a very good team, one bad week like yours clouds our judgement very often.

      I would swap Pope+Aurier, maybe Soyuncu, but that's it.

      1. Pipermaru
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Fabianski+Dunk?

  8. Punk as Fuchs
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    What do you think? G2G?

    Guaita
    Kelly/TAA/Soy
    KdB/Salah(VC)/Martial/Traoré
    Vardy(C)/Ings/Abraham

    McGov/Maddison/Rico/Lund

    0FT, 1.1 ITB

    Brought in Traore for Grealish on a FT as he's been an absolute beast everytime I've watched Wolves, and I'm not a fan of Grealish.

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Gtg, great move

    2. Arfaish
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I know Ings has been amazingly consistent but id consider starting Maddison over him this week

      1. Punk as Fuchs
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah, that's the one I wasn't sure about. I'll probably flip flop a few times before the deadline!

      2. bench boost for every gamew…
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        vs Spurs? Scored against palace who is a lot better in defence than Spurs, so that looks scary to me. Southampton are really good these days.

    3. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Looking at a similar move below. Gtg

  9. Arfaish
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Pulisic needs dealing with but who to bring in, Maddison, Martial, Alli?

    Henderson, £4m
    TAA, Lund, Tomori, Rico, Kelly
    Salah, KDB, Grealish, Pulisic*, £4.3m
    VAJ

    Also is it worth doing Henderson to Kasper with my second FT?

    1. Arfaish
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Any takers?

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Would keep Henderson now, better fixtures are coming soon.

      Pulisic to Alli if possible sounds good.

      Is Grealish and Pulisic to Maddison and Alli/Martial possible?

      1. Arfaish
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Yes for free as well, got 2ft's and £3.1m itb

    3. bench boost for every gamew…
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Puli is needed to be dealt with, but defence is on the brink here, Tomori and Chelsea can´t defend, Rico plays for Bou that looks worst than they ever been, and not on set pieces anymore it seems and Kelly is on borrowed time. Tomori-Everton fullback or Chilwell?

      1. Arfaish
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah plan was for Tomori to make way next week for Leicester defence but don't think I can afford Chilwell so more likely Soy/Evans

  10. What Else
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Already have Mané and not sure what to do with 2 FT.
    Salah + VVD OUT
    Martial + TAA IN

    Yay or nay?

    1. Dont_Win_Friends_With_Salah…
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Yay

    2. YuvalFPL
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Do you really wanna take Mo out? Find another way to bring TAA in.

      1. Pacer.
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Brought him in last two weeks and capped. Killed my rank by 150k

        He simply isn't worth it. Best avoided all season long as far as I can see and just accept you'll miss a few hauls

        Absolutely abysmal eye test too. He's always been wasteful, but the last couple of weeks were genuinely conical

        1. Pacer.
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          *comical.

          If they were conical, the ball might have ended up in the net. Sadly Salah is shooting through the wrong end of the cone

    3. bench boost for every gamew…
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      VVD needs only a million get TAA so i would do that another way and not sure if i would bother really. SHU could be tough for Salah but then it gets juicy vs Spurs and United and then a double gw.

  11. Jebiga
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    From gw1 im constantly speaking about KDB that he is season player. What a class. I cant say there is a better player than him in PL right now...even Vardy is not that close

    1. YuvalFPL
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      To think I was considering KDB to Pepe after his goal against West Ham. Not sure what I was smoking that evening...

  12. UTD - HATED, ADORED, BUT NE…
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Vardy a hetter captain option than Kane this week?

    1. drughi
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      yes

      1. UTD - HATED, ADORED, BUT NE…
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Nope

  13. Maddamotha
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    The best option here fellas?

    A) Targett/Rico > Gomez
    B) Mount > Maddisson
    C) Abraham > Rashford
    D) Smth else

    Guaita
    TAA, Soy, Rico
    Salah, KDB, Martial, Mount
    Vardy, Abraham, Jimenez

    Button, Rico, Dendo, Lundstram

    1. cigan
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Targett to Gomez looks good. Mount > Maddison too but maybe next week

      1. Maddamotha
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        CHeers homey

  14. TiAgoFPL
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    A - DCL/Maupay + Traore
    Or
    B - Jimenez + 4,4 mid

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      B if 4.4 is your bench fodder. Otherwise A.

      1. TiAgoFPL
        • 4 Years

        Yes he's bench foder . Luiz or Dedoncker ?

    Rashford - Jimenez - Vardy

    1.1m itb, 2FTs.

  18. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Bottomed. Best move here? Tough games for Rich and Grealish.

    A. Rich >> Martial
    B. Grealish >> Traore
    C. Save & reassess with 2FTs

    Pope
    TAA • Soy • Aurier
    Salah • Mané • Richarli • KDB • Grealish
    Vardy • Maupay

    1. Firminooooo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I would give Grealish a chance. Rich to Martial.

  19. BellyKlopp
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    100 points off top 50.
    65 pts off top 1k
    25 off top 10k

    What do you guys think should be a realistic target?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Top 1k

      1. BellyKlopp
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        That was my target. All chips in tact. Let's see what happens

        1. YuvalFPL
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Me too. Anyone considering triple captain for the double gameweek?

          1. BellyKlopp
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            If Salah/Mane/Trent are looking sharp in the run up then I probably will yes

          2. Jebiga
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Salah TC that GW

  20. Letsgo!
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Ings to jimenez for this week?

    1. FPLShaqiri
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I actually think Ings has the better fixture this week. Jimenez is great but Watford are strong defensively lately.

      1. bench boost for every gamew…
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        tend to agree with that diagnosis

    2. Arfaish
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Certainly not a bad one week punt

  21. FPLShaqiri
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Do we know from Moyes's previous spell at West Ham which players he likes? Antonio/Lanzini/Anderson all options in midfield. Not sure they're wrth th price in FPL, but maybe for Draft version I'll get one in.

    1. theodosios
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      If they don't win at least 2 out of next 3 games, they will be in big sh**. Just look at that fixtures after GW23 😀

      1. FPLShaqiri
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah awful run. Annoyingly if I want West Ham it has to be this week for the fixtures, and we don't have much info or know what to expect from Moyes.

      2. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        I think they can start looking forward to the Millwall derbys already

    2. bench boost for every gamew…
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      West ham needs speed and pace in midfield, that´the reason why they constantly doing so badly. Moyes will probably see that and he might go 4-5-1 to address that.

  22. dansmusen

    "Total immediate points gained from transfers -1"
    Man i really need to stop making transfers

    Stumped on what to do - if anything? Don’t wanna waste a trade!

    2 FTs & 1,4£ ITB

    Irbox on his usually post red-arrow 'mane is woeful' vacation I see

    wonder how he'll spin that one or what his stance on everyone else being idiots will be this week

      Maybe Salah had better xG and Mane was just lucky

        Casuals will have killed his rank by another couple of hundred K

        Absolutely disgusting. Coming into our game, picking the best players

      He is probably looking for Salah's points somewhere

    Keep the faith with salah and give him the armband for third straight week or go ''safe'' with vardy ? rival 51 points ahead off me will most likely go vardy

      I'm captaining Salah this week over Vardy (VC)
