might be tight Jimmy... do you not reckon Suarez is good for six?

I've got a doozy this week, I'm on 53 with Suarez(c), Mata and Sterling to play(Puncheon will come in if one doesn't play)
He's on 55 with Ivanovic, Marveaux and Suarez to play, his captain was Van Persie,
I think I'll win unless Ivanovic has a goal and a clean Sheet, really don't want mata or sterling getting 15 minutes with Puncheon waiting to come on.

I hope not.

Copper_pipe

I'm winning my game 62-23

He had Walcott as captain and don't have RVP

I had RVP as captain- Chicharito and Berba

5 points clear with Mata and Cuellar vs Fellaini. Barring some afro magic I should be ok.

First real challenge for me in the cup. He has 59 points and I have 57, we both have Cahill and Mata.

He's got Suarez left to play while I have Pienaar and Demba Ba.

Who do you guys fancy?

I'm going thru comfortably thanks to Suarez tonight and O'Brien yesterday, opponent ended up with a very similar team to my own but a stronger defence, my midfield was better but Mata's 15 mins negated that really, he had VP captained so I needed Suarez to come up trumps for me,
Delighted to still be going in the cup, I know some of ye have a snobby attitude(carling/littlewoods/rumbelows cup) but it really adds to the excitement of a gameweek.

Who else is left?

Yeah I won 91-89. My opponent must be seriously pissed.

FutureGuy

Breezed through the round.

no12

Gone I would have been ok only he had a monster haul from Joey O Brien at least I got through a couple of rounds this year

kwestfan08

Absolutely raging. Got put out losing 72 - 85. Was breezing through until he had Routledge and O'Brien come off the bench for 24 points and Baines scoring 11 tonight. Twas my highest scoring week too. This game sometimes.

Safely through 79 (83-4) - 42, bit of craic this cup is.

4. Heading into round 5. Hopefully I get lucky with the draw again. Wouldn't mind a decent run in this.

good work so by my rough calculations theres just 100,000 + players still left in this.

Copper_pipe

I'm in the next round, 67-33

RIALTO1

I'm through, 88-72

Easy Rod

Im still going alright, closer than i would have liked with Baines, fellaini and Routledge off the bench for him.

Swiper the fox

The opponents are up, It looks to me like I have my weakest opponent yet, even if he uses his wildcard he only has 101m to play with.

My opponent is decent. I may have to make a few changes. I am not sure whether to get Dempsey or Bale in.

El Horseboxo

My opponent this week is active but has quite a weak team. His subs bench are all injured so no worries of somebody coming in to wreck my head. He only has Ivanovic as a DGW player. I'm bringing him in and also have Mata and Puncheon. Need a quiet week from Lennon, Sess, Sterling, Long and Dzeko. Would be great if Man United would concede too.

SpaceCowb0y

Going into the 5th round this week... my opponent doesn't seem to be taking the game too seriously he has been in the 40's most weeks and managed to make it this far! He got through with a score of 32 in the last round so hopefully nothing shocking happens and i can make it through to the next round! He has a few decent players in his squad though so you wouldn't know what way things will go ill probably get whipped knowing my luck but heres hoping

irish son

Me and the guy I'm up against used our wildcards this week, We won't be able to see each others teams until Saturday, I expect to see a similar enough team to my own.

Jimmy Iovine

My guy ain't a zombie, he's just really ****. He's around 560,000th in the world.

His team at the moment is pretty good though to be fair.

He's also after making 2 transfers this week. It'll be interesting to see which ones he made.

I am really regretting selling Lambert now.

Copper_pipe

Next opponent had i higher score than me last gameweek, i think i may use my wildcard to maximise the DGW. He has already made two transfers.

His team below:

Jimmy Iovine

Reckon I could go out. All depends on Mata's performance in the Southampton match really.

kevthegaff

the lad im playing used his wildcard, brought in nelson:eek:. its nip and tuck at the moment, depends on the rest of the games

El Horseboxo

I've more players left to play and I'm 20 odd points ahead. He has Ba captain and I have Mata. I don't have Ba and he doesn't have Mata so he gets no bonus points so far. Should go through.
