FPL Cup 2018 - FINAL - ft FISO's Joshhhua

[konstro]

I scraped through 52 to 50 against dead team with OR of 2.9 million. Very lucky!

[Multiple Scorgasms]

Out to a dead team, who’s team was atrocious but as he captained Valencia (of WHM) and vc’d pickford!!!!! He got the win

[Oxford NZ]

Scraped through 39-36. Should have gone out and probably will next week as I plan a -12 to put the team right.

[Tacalabala]

Same situation, happened to leave it on Eriksen. To be fair, it's a decent team.

[baganboy]

Lile the last few seasons, lost out at the first hurdle.

[andybarrell]

managed to beat a dead team 41-31

[snakzz]

Out to an dead team with Vert VC, Foster in goal and Silva.

[Albert_ini]

Through to the second round with a 49-32 win.

[19Yorke]

You ALREADY qualified for the Cup with a gameweek rank better than 4M in gw16 (a quite good 500k indeed)

Worst you can do now is get out at 1st round vs Kate's Kickers
(Kick me Kate? lol)

I did indeed - forgot that part Anyway, that means I did qualify but am out in the 1st round after taking a serious beating by a dead team with 9 playing players inclduing William, McArthur, Crough and Can

[AMc]

.

[Kuchi]

Out 40-48 DDG and captain Valencia did it for him last night.

[Fuzz]

Out to a dead team! 44 - 60

[JasonH]

I made it to the second round. I won by 1 point.
42 - 43

I'm against an opponent who got 77 points in GW16. Very strong team. He doesn't take hits in transfers. It'll be a tough one for me.

His team:
DDG, Fabianski
Clark, Simpson, Schindler, Lascelles,Atsu
D Silva, Salah, Eriksen, Gross, Fonte.
Morata, Kane. Abraham

My team
Pope, Speroni
Mustafi, Christensen, Smalling, Otamendi,Mee
Salah, Hazard, Richarlison, Gross, Ramsey
Morata, Aguero, DCL

[sstaffsw]

Out to an active but struggling team around the 2.6m mark overall. My 40 lost to his 51.

[math!]

Lost 48-47 to a team tha is either dead or stuggling. Sterling's 9 seemed to be the damage dealer.

[TheBigLewandowski]

Through to the next round. 5 points was all that was in it!

[jimwinn]

Drawn against a pretty good team

FK DORCOL - do we have a Ukrainian Liverpool fan?

[Notned]

Scraped through by a point!

[Poison Idea]

Drawn against a pretty good team

FK DORCOL - do we have a Ukrainian Liverpool fan?

Won't matter. You've drawn a Serb.

[Zimmerman]

Got a dead team (4.8m) with no transfers, several injured players and a captained de Gea in goal.

Definitely going to end in tears.

[No Way Jose]

Drew a reasonable side. If we had played this past round he would have won 57-56

[andybarrell]

Drawn against another dead team , 1 transfer all season in GW4. Has Kane as capt and scored more than me last round

I might have to Band Lulu (currently Eden) to match up with my opponents - it is one of those scary looking dead teams..... My lot in brackets, doubles in BOLD:

What Would FISO Do?

Cech (Pickford) even, although Pickford may get an extra Save Point.

Hegazi (Jones) - surely I will be up here, as WBA must lose without scoring?
Kola
Mbemba (Christensen) - surely up as Arse\Liverpool (Ake) must score, and hopefully Chelsea will finally keep a CS, or a repeat of last GW?

Xhaka (Richarlison) - I'm starting to hope Newcastle score, as that'll take Xhaka down to 2, along with Richarlison or, more likely Gross.
D Silva (Sterling) - Potentially a big swing either way Annoyingly D Silva ia in my immediate plans, so maybe a -4 to dump Gross isn't daft?
Salah
Mane (Hazard) - I was looking to band Eden, but very unsure now.

Mounie (Diouf) I have brought Diouf in for the immediate fixtures, with the notion that WHam will struggle to attack and defend.
Kun (DCL) Not a clue what is going to happen for Kun this GW, but I hope for at least a DCL Ass.
Lulu

Speroni (Lossl)
Albrightion (Gross)
Ake (Schindler)
Hune (Schlupp)

I have already taken a -4, btw.

[Zimmerman]

Very close.
His Mane and your Sterling might be rested.

I reckon you have a two player advantage so it will come down to whether Hazard or Kun hit it big.
As the latter has a tougher game on paper, then slightly in your favour.

Not sure id risk giving him an 8 point head-start and playing 7 a-s-side (by taking a hit to get Silva in).
On the flip side, if you have funds to do Gross -> Silva then maybe not the worst idea in the world for the overall aspirations (but the opposition seems to make it a less attractive proposition).

Don't understand why one would change one's decision, captaincy or transfer, solely based on one's cup opponent.

[blahblah]

Ranking is pants.....

Can't be added to login from phone to change anything now

[RuudTheDudeVanTheMan]

Looking good my opponent has 13 with De Gea, Valencia, Rooney and (c)Lukaku vs 44 for me with Jones, Salah and DCL to play. So barring United going crazy tomorrow I should be though to round 3.

[tarkens]

i'm on 29 with DDG, Kenny, Salah and DCL to play
my opponent is on 31 with Naughton, Coutinho, Salah (c) and Rooney to play

so I need Everton 1-0 (DCL), Man Utd CS and Salah with no more than 1 goal

[JasonH]

I'm out in the second round. My opponent is so far ahead of me I don't see anyway my remaining players could out score my opponent.

I made it to the second round. I won by 1 point.
42 - 43

Morata, Aguero, DCL

[jimwinn]

Well and truly stuffed this round

Unless Abraham gets -20 tomorrow

7 missed penalties and a sending off could happen so I'm in the hat for the 3rd round
