This evening, we roll out the seventh round draw of the Fantasy Football Scout Cup X, as sponsored by Paddy Power, and take a look back at the key events during New Year’s Day’s sixth round ties.

United Nations is fast becoming the manager to beat after clocking up his second prize for scoring the highest number of points in a round. A tally of 69 points has propelled him into 334th position overall, earning him another £25 worth of free bets from Paddy Power and setting him up for a round seven tie with Mince and Tatties. United Nations’ fielding of Harry Kane and Gael Clichy proved crucial to his victory.

The giant-killing accolade of the round goes to Aaron Ramessi. He may be ranked 33,436th overall but he saw off round six’s highest ranked manager Never Trust Lukaku, who is ranked 19th. Aaron Ramessi now faces CMIFLFC in the seventh round.

Other notable round seven ties include Mediocre Men, who knocked Granville out in round five, taking on Momalpashands, and community writer Saata facing up to Wolverine. Jimbojunior drew the short straw and meets round seven’s highest ranked manager Mjfdept, who is 65th overall.

Among the 16 remaining competitors, 13 have a rank within the top 10,000 and four are in the elite top 1,000 group.

The full list of sixth round results can be found here, while the seventh round draw in full can be found here.

Good luck to those involved in the weekend’s action. In the meantime, though, if you’re looking for more information on the Scout Cup schedule and prizes available, click this link for a more thorough rundown.

  7. someone you know
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    What do y'all think of my WC team?

    DDG (gilks)
    Terry, Wisdom, dummet, alderweireld, tomkins
    Fabs, hazard, Siggy, downing, chadli
    Austin, Kane, RVP

    3.3 ITB
    When kun is back I'm thinking RVP out for kun and whoever frustrates more out of downing/chadli out for di Maria when he's back.

    Thoughts? Ok without arsenal/pool cover? Better striker than RVP for a kun placeholder?

    1. Patty
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I would have di Maria in there already for downing, that team could cause many benching dilemmas

    2. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      RVP is a waste of good money.

  8. Paganoi

    Anyone planning on going 3-5-2 from here on out?

    1. Patty
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I think we have learnt always play a striker over a midfielder

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        This weeks top scorer hadn't.

        1. Patty
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Kane is a striker

    2. Zasa
      • 11 Years

      Never

    Fabianski Myhill
    Terry Zab Hutton Wisdom Vergini
    Sanchez Haz Siggy Silva Wanyama
    Costa Austin Benteke

    Thinking about moving tekkers or Zab but not sure

    1. Patty
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      benteke > Kane/jovetic

      1. Jacques The Lad
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        I like the look of Benteke > Jovetic, Thanks

      2. Zasa
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        This best move by far

    2. Walsh
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      No reason to save a FT with three gameweeks left. Benteke to Jovetic could be good.

      1. Jacques The Lad
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Ive held onto my 1st WC so I'm considering playing my winter wildcard late

        1. Walsh
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          That seems a little counter-intuitive to me. I would rather play it early as you will be playing your next one somewhere around GW30 plus or minus a couple GWs when DGWs are announced. I would rather use the January WC early to maximize the number of weeks you can have that choice squad for before WCing again.

          1. Patty
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            this is what I'm doing

          2. Jacques The Lad
            • 11 Years

            Ok thanks, Ill give it some thought, maybe just wait for kun to return then

      no Acon players?

      1. La Roja
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Nope

    5. Walsh
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I'd make that transfer if you think there is nothing else worth doing.

  19. Patty
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    WC Draft #2

    Thoughts

    Panti Foster
    Terry Bertrand Debuchy Wisdom Hutton
    Hazard ADM Sterling Chadli Boyd
    Costa Falcao Kane

    Have the cash for Falcao > Aguero when he is fit

    Problems are, no city cover until Aguero and no Arsenal attacking coverage

    1. Walsh
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      No Alexis is the only glaring thing that could burn but if you think he will slow down then it could pay off big time.

      1. Patty
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        not sure where he would fit in, arsenal share the points quite evenly with a full fit squad; giroud, Sanchez, Ramsey, walcott, ozil, cazorla etc.

        1. Walsh
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah because they always have a full squad available..... 🙂

          1. Patty
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            walcott and Ramsey returning soon, may buy one of them when they are fit

            1. Walsh
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              Yep could work out. Good luck Patty.

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Debuchy is waste of money, someone else for him...

      1. Patty
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        He has pretty nice fixtures after the next couple, any you would recomend?

        1. Holmes
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Sunderland's defender or double up with Alder

          1. Patty
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            have panti in goal though

  20. Waterboyd
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Have both Toure and Bony. Only 1FT and 2.5m. Already have Silva, Sanchez, Hazard, Boyd also Kane, Austin.

    What to do?
    a) -4, Toure -> Sterling, Bony -> Costa (Might replace Costa with Aguero on GW23 WC.
    b) Play Boyd and get Rooney for now.

    Also, choose two to bench out of Zaba, Terry, Naylor, O'Shea, Wisdom.

    1. Walsh
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Play Boyd and get Jovetic instead of Rooney. Bench O'Shea and Naylor.

      1. Waterboyd
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        3 City.

        1. Walsh
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          *Giroud

          1. Waterboyd
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            Any reason to the opposition for Rooney? Because he's playing CM?

    Impossible to track price changes during a WC period.

    Only DDG rising? C'mon...

        Not really...

        Can make transfer moves accordingly. Now you can't. Also, I like to see if my players will change in price. 🙂

    I am surprised the FPL website hasn't red flagged Yaya yet. Only 14k have transferred him out. The casuals will go nuts when the flag turns red.

    Bony has similar ownership, was red flagged, and 45k transferred him out.

      Seemed weird to me too. Considering Renard has already posted his 23.

      Hmm perhaps they wait until theyre actually gone. Still the potential to get an injury and be left out of the squad or have a falling out with management or whatnot

    I find that a player who scores heavily mid or striker is a good punt if they have had at least 5 gw without exploding into actionbaines on the other hand has caused explosions in my pants.
    want to get rid but it's time he might score heavy...gonna cause me to explode!

    Duff to Hutton
    Baines to Skrtel
    RvP/Austin to Kane

    or save FT?

    1. Walsh
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Duff to Hutton. You need Hutton for this gameweek with that defense.

      1. Zasa
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Really, you reckon?
        Rolling with this, Baines | Terry | Wisdom

        Even if Duff is back in time?

        1. Walsh
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          If Duff isn't in a morgue somewhere I'd be surprised. I would get Hutton in for him and bench Baines this GW...then have Baines for the WBA, cry fixtures before wildcarding.

          1. Zasa
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            Ha 😉 There's been no news on this guy! He's pretty old though, it's understandable 🙂
            Hmm, that's a not too shabby actually Walsh. Great food for thought mate.

            Curious, this is my first season & still have my 1st WC, so far have been planning on using it on the 24th GW. You reckon it's better using it early to get more mileage & use the second one for the DWG's later on?

            Thanks, Walsh you're the man 😎

    Took a shot at my WC tonight .Any recommendations ?

    Panti/Heaton
    Terry, Bert, Clyne, Wisdom, Hutton
    Hazard, Fab, Sanchez, ADM, Siggy
    Aguerro(Ings for now), Kane, Austin

    1. Waterboyd
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      G2G. So until Aguero you would have about 6m ITB?

      1. Sardines in the Sea
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        6.2

    2. Walsh
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Looks nice.

    3. Patty
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      352? that forward line looks quite budget, I went with falcao over ings as my punt until aguero, Chadli over siggy

      1. Sardines in the Sea
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        The Ings pick is all about the fixtures. He is nailed on and fixtures are solid until the end of January

        1. Patty
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          just feel like a premium striker could help you

          1. money face bandwagon
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            i would say ings has a good chance to outscore falcao

    2. BeachBadger
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

    3. Wiz
      • 12 Years

  28. Koflok

    1. Zasa
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Wait until Jay Rodriguez, Sturridge & PvA get in the mix 😎
