FPL Cup

Torricelli

Up against a guy in 879k versus my 50k. He captained Ozil and has a pretty decent team.

spock.

Up against a fellow Kane captainer. He has a double WBA defence while I have none, that'll likely decide it.

Lights On

Guy I'm up against already has a 10 point lead thanks to Arnie and my -4. Both of us captained Kun and have pretty similar teams so Alli, Giroud & Ozil are the ones I need to win it. Not holding my breath!

Collie D

Up against a guy ranked 939,649 places lower than me. Barkley, Vardey and Ighalo in common. My captain Mahrez to his captain Giroud.

Swiper the fox

My opponent has Arnie and Glen Johnson, I'm not confident right now.

KrakityJones

Third year in a row where I'm up against an easy opponent on paper... Then I go and do my thing which this week was turfing out Kane for Giroud. Guess who my opponent has captained...

Current score me:24 pts Opponent 47

Feck this fantasy football lark

Lights On

Two guesses who the guy I'm against has his VC coming in for Kun. KDB

richieffff

My opponent is just over the 2m mark and has 4 clean sheets with Cech still to come

PARlance

Think I'm 58 vs 52 going into the final game. My Ozil vs Cech & Bellerin. He benched Ozil. No CS please.

km79

I'm through

spock.

My Bellerin +4 v Giroud
Need one of these teams to keep a clean sheet!

Lights On

Going to be a close one, even with his KDB captain it looks like it's coming down to both our Arsenal players. I have Ozil & Giroud. He has Cech & Bellerin

ItsChecoTime

Need Ozil to score < 10 to go through as your man has him vice captain after Aguero's no show. Would like a bit of a cup run as I haven't got a whole lot else to play for

Scorpion Sting

63-55 up after baps. We both have Ozil left and he also has Monreal. So I need Monreal to score 7 or less and I'm through. He had Ighalo and Clyne on the bench with 6 pts each so I'm fairly lucky to be ahead.

Rikand

My poor opponent has 27 points all played and buttland kdb ward and woolshed on the bench.

I have 40 with belly and Ozil to go

Lights On

Got through by the skin of my teeth, purely because Cech/Bellerin blanked worse than Ozil/Giroud! Hopefully it won't end up this tight in the next round!

Just about through
58-56 the final score.

Iused2likebusts

I'm through beat a lad that played his bench boost.

Lemlin

61-53 I win. My opponent was at 85k so a decent victory.

Completely forgot it was cup week and had taken a -8 in preperation for the festive period.

Still managed to scrape through by 3 points as my vc Kane became my captain when Aguero stayed on the bench.

MarkSRFC21

Despite my shocking week, my opponent somehow had a worse week. KDB the difference. 36-24 win. On to the next round

iroced

Met a player 2 pts above me in the OR. Glad I managed to get through mainly thanks to captain Kane .

Usernemises

Despite my horrific choice of captain I got through, albeit against a lad that hasn't changed his team in about a month I'd say. 3 players in the red.

Pathetic week for me. Beaten 54-31

Lights On

Forgot to add in my -4 to the score when I was adding it up last night, ended up loosing by 4. Aguero is making it his mission to ruin my season this year :pac:

Torricelli

Won 71-37. Poor lad fell 300k with that score.

SantryRed

I got through 54-51. My opponent took a 4 point hit to bring in Aguero, who didn't play.... Ouch!

gimmick

What was the qualifying criteria to enter? A guy in my league with more points than me didn't qualify but I did.

Safely though to round 2 anyway and should almost be a bye week. My opponent has Rooney as captain. His entire bench in injured and has only 10 available players.

Watch me screw it up

km79

I finally sold mata and the lad in playing still has him at the moment
I think we all know what's going to happen

Dempsey

My team 28k vs his 1m

He won 68-58

I ran for exactly 31 mins and did 5.2km. I then did a chest workout which consisted of bench press and chest press followed with a bicep workout. To finish of my workout I did 50 sit ups. Throughout the day I randomly do pushups around the house, also. - After the gym, I ate the same as for breakfast (rice cakes and chicken with ketchup) and had a protein shake with water this time. - An hour later, I ate 3 small clementines followed by a decaf coffee with approx 30ml of skimmed milk and a heaped tea spoon of brown cane sugar.

Think it was the highest 1.3 million odd GW points scored in GW 17.

Mike Ehrmantraut

My 42 Pts got me through. 42-30, will need a big improvement if I'm gonna go much further in it

The top 2,097,152 scorers in Gameweek 17 will enter the first round. If there are more than 2,097,152 qualifiers then there will be a random draw amongst the lowest scorers to see who qualifies.

:eek::P

Rikand

This week's opponent has me beaten up a stick. He hasn't made a transfer for 4 weeks. Has 3 red flags and will have mertesacker coming in off the bench.

I'd need an aguero hattrick to have any chance

stephenl15

All but through. 51 + Kol, Vardy & Mahrez (C) plays my 72 + KDB and Mahrez.

Ziegler1988

Ha, I put up 75 points but still need Moreno to get 5 points to advance

SantryRed

I'm up 73-36....

Left though is:

KDB, Mahrez vs. Kolorov, KDB, Toure (c), Moreno

I'd be shocked not to go through! :pac:

IsMiseMyself

I'm currently ahead by about 20 points but s/he has captain Aguero as the deciding point!

spock.

I'm in trouble
Need Vardy and Mignolet to outscore Aguero by 8 points

Usernemises

Getting beat 67-62, still have clyne, Mahrez and kdb to play. He has vardy, yaya and Mahrez. Going to be tight.

Scorpion Sting

Leading by 43 points. My Moreno and KDB vs his Vardy (c), Sterling and Kolarov. Unless something outrageous happens in the Leicester - Man City game I'm safely through.

MarkSRFC21

This one should be in the bag, if vardy stays quiet enough and city concede. I have aguero + 14 vs his hart, Sagna and vardy. Two wins despite pretty poor scores. Further than I got last year at least

Torricelli

Lost 77-78

Absolutely gutted.

extra gravy

Need 6 from Moreno to go through. He only seems to get clean sheets when I bench him though so I'm not holding out much hope.

Rikand

Need Moreno to hattrick and Clyne to get sent off

iamanengine

Through to the 3rd round. 70 - 42

8 pointer from Mignolet needed.... bring on the save points!

stephenl15

I'm through 77 - 70

Usernemises

Need 9+ points from clyne tomorrow night. Getting beat 76- 67. Looks like I'm out unless the reds do the job.
