Gameweek 21 - Captain Choice

    There are many captain choices this week with Ba, Walcott, Berbatov, RVP & Michu. However there may be a slim chance RVP could come off the bench again but thats unlikely as Wigan away is a vital game for United. Michu is marked down as 50% chance of playing but Aston Villa are extremely poor so far and if Michu starts I could see him nicking a goal or 2. Also don't forget Fellani is back from suspension so theres another great choice for captain for those who brought him back in.

    At the minute I will be gambling by captaining Michu with RVP as VC.

    Rvp will again be most captained, but Wigan are actually on a bit of form and traditionally United's bogey team... i'll be captaining Theo again, he was absolutely on fire v Newcastle and S'hampton aren't exactly great defensively


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,141 ✭✭✭Santi101


    I think I'll sidestep RVP this week tbh.

    Suarez, Defoe or whoever I bring in for Bale might be in contention.

    Haha you can't argue with those stats.

    I reckon I'll go with Walcott, RVP VC

    Post reported??? Are you for real. I think the majority on here respect me for generally getting my facts straight on here. I made a mistake this time, and i'm sure most that know me on here realise that's all it was, a genuine mistake. "what a load of crap" is just a stupid inflamatory comment, but then again you've got precedence for that kind of reactionary crap on here... Show respect, if you wanna get it Jax


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 458 ✭✭Eldoco


    i think ill go with suarez and walcott vc

    I don't see me captain choice Torres here. Thought he could get a few against QPR?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 712 ✭✭✭Devia


    Veering towards Walcott. Was thinking Mata initially but I can see him being rested for this one.

    I would love if Mata got rested.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,295 ✭✭✭slingerz


    Torres for me, could be a good differential or else an unmitigated disaster


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


    I have him and he would be about 5th choice.

    Thats just nasty:p

    Although i wasnt able to make changes to my team over the last 3 gameweeks i actually didnt do to badly in the end! 58, 42(the average was 41), and 61 this was all while having the armband on Tevez:rolleyes:

    Had 2 free transfers this week and have brought in Jussi for Begovic just for the next 2 weeks and shipped Nolan out for Fellaini, I still have loads of injury doubts in my team including michu and my entire bench:eek: I NEED Mata to play! Althoughi scored 61 from just 8 players last gw i cant see my luck keeping up like that!!

    RVP again. No need to risk anyone else as I'm top of my personal leagues at this point of the year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,518 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    Ivanovic...

    Am I mental to even be considering this ? :)


    [ i have rvp ]

    Do it for the craic,if it works the minimum you'll get is 12 points .........unless they concede:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,033 ✭✭✭who_ru


    what about Michu - is he fit?

    Defoe all the way, home to Reading equals goals galore

    If you're ever going to captain a defender, this is the game to do it for.

    I'm also having my worst season in years - this could be the turning point!

    Screw it! I'm gonna do it! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,605 ✭✭✭✭Liam O


    Have Aguero and Silva. Unsure if both will start as I brought Silva in this week and none of the 3 people I've transferred in the last 3 weeks have started.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,474 ✭✭✭YeatsCounty


    Stuck switching between RVP and Walcott. I know my rival will go with RVP, so if Walcott does well......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,482 ✭✭✭Comic Book Guy


    What kind of coin toss should i go with to decide between RVP Suarez, walcott, mata?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,141 ✭✭✭Santi101


    I've gone for a change and stuck it on Defoe. Reading have kept a cple of CS's recently but they should have lost to Swansea after being dominated, and West Ham had some huge chances to score at the weekend.

    Hoping for some decent returns from RVP, Suarez, Cazorla, Mata and Michu returning please!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,961 ✭✭✭✭mailburner


    changed from walc to defoe
    if defoe cant score today theres no hope for him

    so many good choices if they all started
    you couldnt blame anyone for captaining suarez, walc, rvp, mata, michu
    defoe, aguero or even torres


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,141 ✭✭✭Santi101


    As an Arsenal fan, I'll be surprised if Walcott does serious damage today. At best a goal from him IMO.

    Not easy to back up a performance like that, dont think Cazorla or Bale did so either.

    Switched to Silva last minute, Aguero is too much of a rotation risk.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 589 ✭✭✭Steel Dog


    Went with RVP (c) and Michu (vc)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,208 ✭✭✭MikeCork2009


    Went with Suarez (C) and RvP (VC)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 230 ✭✭carrig2


    I voted walcott yesterday but changed it to suarez this morning with walcott vp


  • Posts: 0 Lionel Rough Rig


    Mata (C)
    Torres VC

    my last gamble failed spectacularly as I went RVP -> Rooney for the past 4 weeks.

    Please Torres sort it out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,991 ✭✭✭✭kippy


    Went with Fellani. Another shot in the dark.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,518 ✭✭✭✭Rikand

    Come on Ivanovic, bring home the bacon for me tonight! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 458 ✭✭Eldoco
