    Kane seems the obvious choice.

    Aguero or Sturridge are very tempting though.

    On my phone so can't do a poll, but wanted to get this going.

    Could someone do one?

    can't shake thee feeling aguero may end up being the top dog...

    Kane. I don't think we really need a poll this week :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,042 ✭✭✭zl1whqvjs75cdy

    I've the same feeling. Not sure I can go through with captaining him though.

    Any question of Kane not starting both went out the window with Spurs crashing out of two competitions in 3 days. Aguero could plausibly outscore Kane but I won't be going against >90% of the top 10k. Young Harold has already done enough damage to my season.

    Completely agree.

    I'll go with Kane as almost all of the top 1,000 will, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if Aguero ends up with the higher score.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,111 ✭✭✭Cypher_sounds


    I'm thinking Kane, hopefully it will be a sweet success...


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,304 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    I don't know. I'm not fully sold on Kane and if I went for Aguero or Sturridge it could either reignite my season or actually end any chances of a decent finish.

    I find it impossible to trust Spurs but Kane with a DGW with 2 decent fixtures is hard to ignore. I just can't shake the feeling he won't do much.

    I presume that's just crazy talk from me :pac:

    Once again we think the same........last time it was Theo though so maybe we shud captain Kane :D

    I think that even if Kane was playing Swansea and qpr in two separate weeks he would be a candidate to be captain for both weeks, so I think it's a no brainier to captain him this week. I know Spurs are unreliable at times but the one player who has been reliable this season is Kane, so I have full confidence that he will deliver as my captain.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,262 ✭✭✭iroced


    There's always a crazy unexpected DGW wonder. Let's go for Vertonghen :pac:... I'm actually half-serious, though will never have the balls...

    Austin could be a "differential", though he didn't score in his last 4 home games...

    Vertonghen: 2 CS's and a headed goal surely.

    Why not :p?


  • Registered Users Posts: 354 ✭✭Alanhooly


    This is one of those weeks where I really don't want to captain a certain player but will out of pure fear of the number of people who will captain him. Also, with leading my cash leagues, it would be mad to give them the differential.

    Kane for me, although Aguero is probably my ideal pick.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,282 ✭✭✭OneColdHand


    There's not even a poll for this week?! :)

    Kane at over 70% of FFS.

    I was surprised it was so low! If 30% of active players don't end up captaining him I'll be amazed.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,200 ✭✭✭hots


    Tempted to take a punt on Eriksen, although for the risk over Kane there's not much chance of him outscoring Kane by much so maybe not worth it ...

    Is no one else worried by the fact that Kane has never previously played four matches in a row like this? He was always subbed for one. He has already played two, yesterday's game he was awful and he seemed tired. I just can't see him playing both games this week. I think there's a good chance he'll be rested for one of the games.

    Wembley in a cup final is a tiring pitch. add in the wet conditions........ its still on aguero at the moment for me.....

    He only got 30 mins against Fiorentina. If they had anyone capable of scoring then maybe, but Soldado has proven he's crap and Adebayor has no match fitness. Spurs need to win both of these matches to keep up in the race for 4th place.

    He was rested for Fiorentina. Came off the bench for the last 30.

    I agree that Aguero could well outscore him, but Kane has fcked with my season quite enough thank you.

    no poll? Harry is the obvious choice

    need to decide on one to drop between Giroud, Herrera or Walters is my dilemma

    Herrera may not start again due to LVG'S "philosophy" though he does look dangerous when he plays. If you had Walters on the bench at least he could come in if Herrera doesn't play. I would play Giroud and stick with Herrera over Walters.

    If I had Herrera I would definitely keep him. I have Walters myself and I was thinking of shipping him out for Ashley Young.

    Cheers for the reply. Its a close one but yes Herrera does look v active and likely to pop up with a chance.

    If he comes on as a 89th min sub I'll hunt you down haha :-p


    Anyone captaining Rose?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    I have it Sturridge at the moment! Can see Liverpool scoring 2 or more and DStudge playing 90mins!

    Kane down to 65% on FFS poll.
    Aguero 12%
    Lukaku 3rd with 5% :confused:

    Think some people just pick someone random its not really an accurate representation of what people are actually planning on doing.
