    I absolutely love that competition, it makes it so much better when all the team info is right there on the FPL site and you're playing some guy in Bangladesh or whatever. In my first year playing FPL I only started on week 3 and got very quickly addicted, that year I was doing well to finish around 400k but I got great enjoyment out of the cup run where I won 8 or 9 matches.

    will the chips make a difference this year....

    Probably. Would be annoying to get knocked out just because your opponent bench boosted.

    The Bangladeshis have already punished us enough in the FPL Academy Cup :pac:

    FPL Cup opponents are out. I'm up against someone that's burned TC and BB the last few weeks and loves a hit

    Have an active team ranked 105k and with a decent history.

    They have Ighalo and KdB. This will probably not end well after my potential -8


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,463 ✭✭✭✭km79


    playing an active player who finished 37 k last year and is just outside top million this year !
    Same forward line
    3 of same 5 midfielder
    same goalie
    different defenders from similar teams!


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


    Up against a guy with 2 City defenders. A clean sheet in the bag for them then.

    I'm actually 27k ahead of him and he has Pelle. He does have Vardy and Ozil though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,101 ✭✭✭AidySevenfold


    had a 10 point lead v Giroud and Cech. They got 11 :(
    Everytime it's come to a monday game my oppositions player have scored.

    Also, how did Barkley get an assist for Lukakus goal? it was a shot cleared off the line?

    same as if he had shot and the keeper had parried it off the line and the follw up was scored ?

    Up against as template a team as you will get
    Cech
    kolorav alder smalling
    ozil barkley kdb mahrez
    ighalo vardy lukaku
    subs dann ayew mccauley


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,140 ✭✭✭✭Cartman78


    Up against a zombie team....Gomis leading the line up front :-)

    Mind you, they got 60 points last week so god knows


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,307 ✭✭✭DarraghF197


    I don't think I stand a chance against this team:

    Butland de Gea
    Monreal Smalling Alder Bellerin Smith
    Özil Mahrez KDB Alli Barkley
    Ighalo Kane Lukaku

    Only posiitves are that he doesn't have West Brom defensive cover and Vardy. He VC'd Kane so it's likely he'll captain Kane this week which means I might pick someone different.

    Top of the Moolah league has treble Chelsea defence and second played their Bench Boost with double Leicester defence and Martin Olsson :pac:

    Tis a page or 2 back in the thread...

    "The Champions League resumes again in Week 21, while the next round of the Cup competition takes place in Week 22. Draws for each of these will be announced over the next couple of weeks."

    Harps Cup Draw Throws Up FSA Premier League Derby as Tie of the Round.

    There will be huge interest in the 4th round of the prestigious Harps Cup after the draw paired two behemoths of the game from the top 4 of the most elite H2H league in Europe.

    FSA Premier League leader Busts will host 4th placed Swiper the Fox this weeked in GW22. The Fox is up against it though with the even more wily Busts having as ever been unable to resist that big red wildcard button until theres even a modest stretch in the January evenings.

    It has all the makings of a classic. The FSA will be watching eagerly to see which of these resident FPL brain boxes comes out on top.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,748 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    Bollocks:(
    Good luck Busts, hopefully it will be a good one.

    Major problem here FHFC, I won my Champs league group but I'm not in the draw for the last 32. I've E-Mailed Joe so hopefully this will be sorted before it's too late:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,101 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    Up against a Pat Cunningham and both of us havr made two transfers.

    Reckon he has sold Coleman and Vardy with not enougb cash for Aguero, hopefully Kun delivers big time.

    I'd imagine that should be easily sorted. The qualifiers are clear from the group results. Misprint most likely. Not like Joe. Texted him and he's checking out but will prob be the morning.


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


    not the draw I wanted :eek: Back to look at my wildcard team with gw22 in mind;)

    Swiper. You are in match 11 in place if Joseph Brown who was runner up inyour group but accidently put in twice in draw. He's also in Game 7.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Gah. My CL opponent wildcarded as i found out when i smugly went to confirm my recollection that he didn't have Payet. Well he does now.

    He's gone seriously heavy on Chelsea with Zouma, Willian and Costa (c) so need a Pullisball special. No Lukaku either.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,748 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    Right, my opponent in the CL has Payet as captain:(
    He had double Palace defence:) and is doubling up on WBA tonight:eek:
    He does have Ozil which will probably banjax me as usual,
    I need Aguero to get 6 or more and I should be competing in the second leg, hopefully a couple of clean sheets for my guys and I'll have a lead.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 541 ✭✭✭Hackers


    My opponent in Harps CL has played his bench boost which is a bit unfair but them are the rules! He has Willian as captain but does not have Aguero or Kane which I have.

    I had Payet so all is not lost, its a tough ask all the same when its 15 v 11. He could well play triple captain in the return leg, he has overall rank of 1.9M so this is his best chance of winning anything for the season.

    Trailing by 9 points as my opponent captained Payet. Will probably leave my team as is for the clash with busts and make changes before the second leg, would it be mad I wonder to use the bench boost if two transfers can give me a strong enough 15
