    I love the Cup, had a good run last year(think I won 7, many against superior opponents on paper), I should win today on paper but who knows.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,220 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    This is my opponent in the cup.

    d95648b07462d51994ab87181e593f3c.png

    He has already made 1 transfer which I presume is to strengten his weak defence. Can see myself getting knocked out in the first round ala last year when Hazard ran riot against Villa. Praying Hazard keeps relatively quiet against Swansea today and Yaya can just piss off!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    Totally forgot about this, athough rarly get past the 2nd/3rd rnd.

    :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,220 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    Haha both myself and my opponent brought in Januzaj and he's benched.

    My opponent seems to have stopped playing.

    Up against some lad at 1 mil in the world. Last year I lost to a zombie team in the second round.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    I face some chap from Malaysia who has Aguero captain....and Ramsey VC *shudders*

    He also has Yaya and Hazard. However no Everton coverage....we shall see.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,912 ✭✭✭kilburn


    My opponent is 2+mil in the world but has Yaya and Ramsey :( but also has JOse Enrique and Sturridge starting :eek: strong bench also hmmmmm


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,226 ✭✭✭qwabercd


    My zombie opponent has a team value of 94.6m!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,798 ✭✭✭Mr. Incognito


    Playing a lad with Rooney captained and I have Suarez.

    He has Walcott ramsey hazard and ya ya

    I have ozil, lallana, fer and ramsey

    He has lukaku

    I have giroud

    He has doubled up on pool defenders, I have tottenham and chelsea and we both have everton coverage.

    Mine looks like he is paying attention, and is about 500k places above me.

    Up against a zombie team . Never made a transfer at all and is nearly 300 points worse off than me .

    Same as myself. Lad I'm against has Aguero as captain and is almost 2 millionth in the rankings.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,056 ✭✭✭Sooner or Later


    My Welsh opponent is at the 1.1m mark and has captained Ozil to my Suarez.

    Fingers crossed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,268 ✭✭✭IsMiseMyself


    I'm up against a dude who quit about a month ago. 200 points less than me.

    He's kicking my arse so far. He's got Rodrigues, Rooney and Hazard on V, but his C is Aguero so. First sub is Chester. This is almost funny.

    Almost.

    Not much you can do about that unfortunately, that's just very bad luck.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,223 ✭✭✭Michael D Not Higgins


    It's 37-36 at the moment to me, have Mig, Suarez, Henderson and Negredo to play. He has Nasri and Suarez as captain (I had Rooney, expecting some bonus points still). I think I have the edge as long as Suarez doesn't have a belter.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,049 ✭✭✭unkymo


    I'm up against a zombie team who has RVP(c) and Ricky Lambert (VC).

    If Saurez doesn't do anything then I'm out.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,675 ✭✭✭HighClass


    25 for me 27 for zombie.

    He only has Yaya left to play though. I might just scrape through.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,056 ✭✭✭Sooner or Later


    Losing 23 - 30.

    We both have Toure so it is down to Mig (him) v Captain Luis & Negredo (me)

    I'm gonna be 8 points ahead after bonus, he has Zab, we both have Suarez but his is captain. I need Zab and Suarez combined to score 8 points or less to go through.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,268 ✭✭✭IsMiseMyself


    I've been quite soundly beaten. Had an absolute stinker though, so not unexpected.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,024 ✭✭✭JokerD


    Is the next round in the next GW?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,268 ✭✭✭IsMiseMyself


    Inactive opponent is onset for at least 64 points. Can't say too many of us would have beaten him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 82 ✭✭Azza89


    Always forget about the cup,decision to captain rooney instead of suarez paid off well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    Think Im through.

    Aaaand he's ahead of me by a point pre-BP. Laugh. Out. Loud.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,873 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    Horrible score of less than 40 but i may snaek through depending on BP's..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,691 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Sailed through in the end despite opponent having jrod

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,255 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Think I'm out. Opponent has 48. I'm on 47. He has six bonus coming from Negredo. I have a -4 as well.

    I will get a fair few bonus but I'm still in trouble.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 370 ✭✭KrakityJones


    Well that was just terrible. Thought before today cup round 1 was in the bag. I'm ranked bout 250k overall, team worth over 108 mil, some good players etc.

    Opponent is ranked over 2 millionth, half his team are out (he still has aguero) and is worth about 97mil.

    Poxy fecker is 1 point ahead pre bonus points, theres a very slight chance the bonus will pull me through but I'd be surprised. My worst gameweek to date and it's on day one of the cup. Bah humbug.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,528 ✭✭✭NinjaTruncs


    I'm ranked ~ 20K Cup opponent is 2.9 Million, he hasn't made a transfer yet this season and has 23 points coming off the bench to beat me by 4 :(

    The wrong transfer last week meant I needed to take a 4 point hit this week, really regretting that mistake now.

    4.3kWp South facing PV System. South Dublin



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,873 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    I'm out, sub of 9pts killed me, just glad this GW didn't last over3 days...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,024 ✭✭✭JokerD


    Think I may be through on fewest goals conceded.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 370 ✭✭KrakityJones


    I don't believe it,just snuck in there by 2 points thanks to the bonus. Negredo you fantastic fecker you.

    Beaten by a partial zombie team - he had 3 red flags in his starting 11, but his subs came in to save the day :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,268 ✭✭✭IsMiseMyself


    I was slaughtered by my inactive rival. 71 points he got. I got 43. I can't complain, really, but I will still anyway.

    And that is me out. Lost 38-34.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,512 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    i wonder has a zombie ever won the cup ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,255 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    I lost 58 to 53. Opponent ranked at about 1 mil and I'm at 7k. That's the beauty of a cup competition.

    Through by 54 to 45.

    I like cups.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,602 ✭✭✭skippy15


    67 and out against a team in 2.5 mil!:eek::eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 579 ✭✭✭dasa29


    I am out too, the score is
    Lcam-01xb Dominion 53 - 57 True Blues City

    he has only made 7 transfers so far with the last two on the 15 Dec, and he still has his wildcard.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,185 ✭✭✭G1032


    I'm through. Beat him by 36 points. Don't think I've ever seen a worse team. His I mean, not mine!!!

    Scraped through 36 - 35. Embarrassingly as a Liverpool fan it was Negredo who got me through when captain Luis let me down.

    Funny old game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    sailed through by 30 odd points against a lad that wildcarded. Delighted to beat a ramsey/yaya/coleman team.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,678 Mod ✭✭✭✭F1ngers


    Beaten by that zombie team.
