Gameweek 18 saw the last sixteen in the Paddy Power Cup go head-to-head, with a place in the Quarter-Finals and the inaugural Fanatsy Football Scout shield at stake. The results saw the top ranked player again make ominous progress, while notable names from the community also found safe passage…

Iyad Zahlan’s “Giavara555” saw off the plucky challenge of legriff to make it into the last eight to become the name that everyone wants to avoid in the draw. He’ll be joined by JMS, placed just 29 places behind him in the overall FPL rankings – another name the rest of the pack will hope to skip in next round. That heavy-hitting pair are joined by ange1range1, Wild Rover, MileHigh, Mr.KK, Ricky smokes let’s go and Tommy Tynan’s left shin pad in the last eight. All those teams now qualify for the draw for the Shield tournament, where they will be facing the final eight in the Members Cup which starts early next year.

The full results from the last sixteen are below with the draw for the Quarter-Finals due on Thursday, ahead of Gameweek 20. Tomorrow’s Gameweek gives our remaining cup participants a brief rest period, then, before the last eight do battle in the matches played out in Gameweek 20 over the December 29 and 30 matches.

Congrats to our last sixteen winners.

    Is Suarez to berba crazy?

    Have Gerrard enrique an Suarez which is too much Liverpool coverage.

    Berba has great fixtures. Hence thinking of losing Suarez for him.

    Bought him at £9.4m so will make some money but not much chance of getting him back.

    2) 4.2 def (demel??) + Walcott + Fellani

    Very tempted to get berba in for Suarez. This would allow me to then get bale in for Morrison.

    Next move after that would be to get baines out so that I can upgrade to Defoe to Torres. Sound plan or should I go with the original plan below?

    Baines to a villa def, Morrison to bale. Enrique would the. Be downgraded to a cheapo and Defoe upgraded to Torres?

            Doesn't float my current boat, and I wouldn't touch for a hit.

    Ba -> Chicarito for a free transfer? Could be a real slaughter tomorrow.

      Ba will probably score the way Uniteds defence is leaking goals at the moment

      I wouldn't bother getting rid of a striker against a poor United defence for a player who may not even play.

      Thanks for the replays, Ba could still nick one fo sure, I'll put it on hold for tomorrow, but the question now is do I need to get rid of Ba at all, newcastles fixtures are quite awful and all the injuries?

    Playing ESPN fantasy, too many players are uncertain this week and some help would be great. I only have 2 transfers left until GW21 (that's when their segment 2 starts).

    For the next 3 games, who would you have?
    A) Dempsey + Fellaini > Bale + Moses/Oscar
    B) Dempsey + Fellaini > Mata + Pienaar
    C) Dempsey + Fellaini > Hazard + Gerrard/Lennon

    My current lineup is:
    Al Habsi (Jussi*)
    Huth/Ridgewell/Baines
    Walcott*/Dempsey*/Silva/Michu(c)/Fellaini*
    RVP/Suarez/Rooney

    Any suggestions would be appreciated! Merry christmas to everyone!

      Thinking the same. I *think* he started three in a row as captain, got injured and then returned last match on his return. Spurs forums seem to think him plus Gallas or Caulker.

      Walcott is injury prone and flakey, I'd say Caz.
