The Cup!

roryc

You think that's bad? I've just gone out 45-45... on goals scored. Those extra Mata BP's killed me. FU Mata and double FU Torres.

If I had any luck in this game I would be dangerous

Now we can go back to the opinion that Cup is for kids, and not important at all.
I didn't even notice there was a Cup, actually.

Talk about luck into next round of cup which is the farthest I've made I think

We are tied 55 each after bonuses, both 4 goals scored. Anyone know what happens now

JPA

Scraped through 46-45.
Probably an abandoned team as well.

IF points are level then it goes in the following order:
1 Goals Scored
2 Goals Conceded
3 Virtual Coin Toss

Goals conceded by our defence or defence/midfield (cos they get clean sheet bonuses) or whole team?

Its not clear on that and was waiting on someone to get into this position to clarify it.

As any goals defenders score are included in the goals scored tally, then you would assume that the goals conceded would also be for forwards.

So if goals scored takes in all players on the starting 11 then possibly goals conceded also takes in all 11 players.

If you click on the "Pick your team" option for the next gameweek does it show a different opponent or the same opponent?
If the same opponent then try clicking on his team and gameweek 21.

Thanks for reply. if it is defence I am throug h, mainly thanks to him having krul. If the midfield is included my arsenal/man city duo will cause me to go out and if it is the whole team then I am definitely out due to ba.

Jimmy Iovine

I'm through, 53 - 41.

Hopefully I get another zombie team in the next round.

SteelyDanJalapeno

Through to round 4, been fairly handy so far.

wonski

Great scores, friendly opponents. Good luck.

Any update? Your next opponent should be up if youre still in.

carrig2

Must not be through, no new opponent. Aw!

Scratch that!! Did a bit of a search there and they don't have the new opponents chosen yet. You could still be through.

Fingers crossed for you.

RIALTO1

Played my 3rd zombie team so far, and needed a haul of 27 pts in the QPR v Liverpool game to sneak it 48-46.

Knocked out by a zombie team who just happened to have Dzeko and Suarez up front

Ah its ridiculous
Im in the top 11k in the world, he isnt even in the top 1m

Copper_pipe

Next opponents are up

Jimmy Iovine

I have another zombie. This one has quite a good team though. A CS for Chelsea and a similar performance from Suarez and I could be gone.

Last time I looked still no difference. In a way not worried cos gameweek plan has to come before overall plan if you are in cup so even though how to be there it might prove a distraction of sorts

Swiper the fox

I've another tough one this time, very similar to my own team, I have Berba, he has Defoe, I'll have Fellaini, he has Silva, If Vorm doesn't play he'll have no goalie so he'll prob transfer one in, he also has Enrique and Bale and only one transfer so I've a feeling he'll be taking a hit, he's already made 35 transfers so he's no Zombie, could/should be very interesting

Copper_pipe

The next opponent looks active, Need Suarez to keep quiet

qwabercd

Don't know why you're all talking about the cup, clearly nobody takes it seriously...;)

Devia

Zombies at this stage are either well constructed teams or pure jammy. I'm up against a lad who beat my score at the weekend. He has O'Shea, Agger, Henderson, Arshavin (C) Reina (VC) and RVP who came off the bench for Rafael. Has never made a single transfer yet he's knocked out 2 active players now. Jambag.

carrig2

I am out of cup anyway. We both level on points and both level on goals scored so out on goals conceded. Goals conceded by whole team obviously because my defence stronger than his.
