The draw for the first round of the 2019/20 FFS Cup FFS Cup

For those Fantasy managers who took part in last weekend’s Fantasy Football Scout Paddy Power Cup VII Third Round, a link to the results can be found here.

This includes the exit of Mark, whose dreams of silverware ended after he lost out in a duel with The Shadow. World number three Iyad Zahlan is the highest ranked remaining Fantasy manager left – he scraped through 36-34 last time out in what was a low scoring round for many.

A quick heads-up for the 128 who have made it through this far. The next round will be played this weekend (Gameweek 15). The upcoming Gameweek 14 round of fixtures which starts this evening will not contribute towards your chances of Scout Cup progress. We are currently sorting the draw for the next round behind the scenes and will roll this out on Thursday morning.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

      You are dreaming!

      Arsenal have won eight and lost none of their last 10 Premier League meetings against Everton.
      Arsenal have scored 81 goals in Premier League history against Everton; only Man Utd (82 v Everton) has seen one team score more against a single opponent in the competition.
      Arsenal have inflicted Everton’s two biggest defeats in the Premier League - 6-1 in August 2009 at Goodison Park and 7-0 at Highbury in May 2005.
      In the last 21 games against Arsenal (in all comps), Everton have only managed more than one goal in a game on one occasion.

    Are we assuming that Harry has no intention of playing Taarabt tonight? Judging on the fact that he got rid of him before and the fact that his press conferences seemed to be semi-directed at him?

      No, Harry said when he lost him that he was one of the post talented players he'd ever worked with just couldn't find a place at Spurs. He's developed since then and QPR are more reliant on his talents than Spurs were who at the time just had an immensely gifted youngster

    Hi guys, really needing some help with my transfers. I have £0.1 in the bank and 2FTs.

    Begovic (Mccarthy)

    Clyne Baines Enrique (Cuellar & Nelsen)

    Lallana Mata Bale Fellaini (Sterling)

    Tevez RVP Berbatov

    Do i really need the Sunderland coverage for DGW? How many ‘more chances’ do i give Baines? Really tempted to downgrade him this week for Nastasic, saves me money and City have 4 cleanies in 5. That seem an ok move?

      It's not about the reputation of the teams, it's about the quality of their defence for attacking players, and the quality of their attack for defensive players. You also have to anticipate whether the team will park the bus or give it a go though. Not as black and white as fixtures, i agree.

        This seaon, for the first time, I have picked players based on their fixtures.

        This is the worst rank I have ever had.

        From now on, I will just get good players, regardless of fixtures.

    Some thoughts on Baines.

    Many feel that downgrading Baines will give them more oomph in mid/strikeforce. I'm considering it to get more oomph in defence. If I downgrade Baines, I can combine 2 of the 5-6m defenders with a little tweaking. If Jose Enrique continues his OOP-ness, he will be a very important player with Pool's fixtures and CS potential. Nastasic could also be a very good choice, same with (maybe) Azpilicueta at Chelsea. Problem fo course being that after the mci GW is over for Baines, his fixtures aren't terrible.

    Of course, if I look longer term, I can downgrade Caz -> Walcott and Hazard -> Bale/Mata/Silva (or Jask -> 4m), potentially funding an upgrade of a 4.5 defender to Enrique/Nas/Azp.

      Having same thoughts with Baines. If i downgrade him i could have Enrique, J.Evans & Nastasic for example.

      Think everybody is in the same boat. I'm thinking of Baines > Enrique and Demel > Caulker and I'll still have some left over funds.

    Benitez says he must give Fernando Torres confidence by giving him some different instructions and must improve him physically. #CFC

    Anyone fancy a cheeky bet on "Torres for golden boot" at 10/1?

    I really wish Theo was nailed on, he'd be coming straight into my team after tonight but at the moment looks like I'm going to have to go the extra cash and get Cazorla in!

    Just noticed I went down from 100k to 102k in the overall rankings but went up or stayed the same in all my minileagues. Truly an awful week for all enthusiasts.

    Hey guys. Needed a quick opinion on which of the two to play. One of them have to be benched.
    a) Bale against Liverpool
    b) Michu against West Brom
    c) fellaini against arsenal

        Have Suarez berbs and Rvp upfront ? I feel benching berbs is the another option.That gives me a midfield of sterling and sess along with the above mentioned three.

    just to continue a discussion from the previous page... does shipping Hazard out at this point seem sensible? Have no other Chelsea coverage.
