    Also,
    Those odds assume worst case scenario for the bookies, ie Sanchez starts up front (which he probably won't)
    Aguero will outscore him.

    So you would be willing to lay Sanchez to outscore him at 100/1 thats like me giving you free money when Aguero outscores him.

    Aguero is top of the pecking order every week when's he's fit imo. He can score well home or away against any opposition as he has consistently proven. Captaining him ahead of Sanchez this week. He's in better form and City will want to bounce back from Barca defeat and keep the pressure on Chelsea.

    The vast majority of the time for sure he's the go to pick this season for sure.

    I've had it on Alexis all week but yesterday I decided Aguero was a better option after Liverpool's midweek match, and as a blocker since 2nd in my league will captain him. Unfortunately I wasn't in a position to do it, only make a mental note for later. Cue night out and a sleep until 11:30.

    Come on Alexis!

    Booked!

    Makes it a lot more fun with them playing at different times we get twice as long a sweat out of it!

    Just out of curiosity if you were a bookies pricing it up what would your prices be? I would be going 4/6 Sanchez 11/10 Aguero.

    I asked Sanchez what he thought of all the people who didn't captain him this week. Sanchez no happy. No happy at all.

    They're the double chance odds ;)
    I might have something like this:
    Aguero 11/10
    Draw 11/2
    Sanchez 5/4

    107% you clearly know how to price a football market!! Would be interesting to see how the draw would be priced if a market was offered that looks pretty good though. If they were both attackers the draw would probably be a bit shorter be with so many differences in how they score points makes the draw that bit less frequent.

    I hope it isn't a 2-2 draw with them both blanking!
    This has gone a bit off-topic though. I'll talk to you tomorrow to pick up my winnings ;)

    I really hope Downing does something here otherwise I will have to pick between them in UFPL and with Aguero getting 6 points for a goal it edges it over to him that bit! If it does happen might just go Sanchez too in spite!

    Yeh that is a weird one hard to know what was going on there. FFS speculated that Moses might have taken it due to him earning it much like Arsenal used to have that silly policy of if you won it you couldn't take it.

    Don't think it was Arsenal had that policy. I think it was just Henry himself.

    Pretty much made it the same thing if he gets taken down then someone else takes it if someone else gets taken down he takes it! Must have been an Henry thing surely no Manager would ever want a policy like that in place!

    I sense a double bluff, or at least a hint of seriousness :pac:

    Twas but a bluff but Crouchie only done and got himself a goal anyway. Unbelievable Jeff.

    Took a risk on Aguero instead :pac:
