Gameweek 11 Captain

Ziegler1988

I have the top 3 captain choices on the FFS poll (Kun, Pelle, ADM) so am a bit torn. Not completely set but currently have it on Kun(c) Pelle(vc).

EDIT: Crap, messed up West Ham's fixture in the poll. They're against Villa

Haven't completely decided yet. I currently have Aguero captain, Sanchez VC. Seriously considering switching them around though. Pelle and Tadic could do serious damage against Leicester too, not to mention AdM against Crystal Palace.

This is too hard.

Think I'll take a punt on Pelle. Was planning on going with aguero and although he's obviously in good form, city aren't on top of their game at the moment and QPR are showing signs of improvement.

Pelle (c) Sanchez (vc)

One of those weeks:mad:

Aguero had a game tonight, Costa, too. Sanchez played last night.

Pelle looks like a decent option against a poor Leicester team.

I will wait for more news before I even narrow it down to 2 players.

Rooney or ADM for me. Palace just conceded 3 to Sunderland and Jedinak is suspended

This could hurt us who got rid of ADM and didn't get Rooney.

Interesting week ahead of us as we all have different ideas.

yeah teams are shapin' up different alright. i'm hopeful 2 United attackers over the next 4 gameweeks can bear fruit

Pellè home record is hard to ignore
2, 13, 9, 15, 5 (respectively WBA, New, QPR, Sun, Sto).

While Agüero away record is particularly impressive
6, 6, 8, 7, 2 (respectively New, Ars, Hul, AV, WH).

Basically they failed only once.

The Wild Bunch

Angel Di Maria (CPL)

Gotta be Kun

Surely a City reaction?

PirateShampoo

Wayne Rooney (CPL)

Didn't go with my gut last week and switched my captaincy from Sanchez to Costa at the last moment and payed for it.

So this week I'm going to go for ADM.

ADM at the moment but will probably switch to Kun.

Dusan Tadic (LEI)

Veru undecided. Currently on Aguero but City are in a mini crisis and with Silva out, there's no-one to load the gun for Kun.

ADM hasn't impressed me much the last couple of weeks either, although playing Palace is a different kettle of fish.

Hococop

Im thinking of Picking Valencia, Lukaku or Yaya, my thinking on yaya toure is after his stupid red he will try for redemption,

I might go with Valencia, they are home to villa who are in poor form

Diego Costa (liv)

I really really need to get one right
Highest captaincy so far has been 6x2 12
Hurting me badly
ADM at moment
Possibly Rooney........
Palace looked awful Monday night

Lemlin

Angel Di Maria (CPL)

Aguero. I think he could be near enough being my default captain. I should have went with him over Costa last week.

AdMMM

Angel Di Maria (CPL)

City's performance didn't really inspire confidence in me last night, but it's QPR... surely 3 goals to be had?

jimmii

Angel Di Maria (CPL)

Have Pelle but going Aguero. If he keeps up the form I might sell Costa no point having him if you aren't going to captain him really.

Iused2likebusts

Angel Di Maria (CPL)

Aguero more than likely

Probably Aguero as the 'safe' option but Pelle is tempting me.

Arteta is injured for the weekend I wonder if sanchez will be on pens.

QPR are improved. Chelsea just sneaked a 2-1 win at the Bridge. City are not playing the best. May be a bit fatigued from last 2 games. And no Silva to help unlock opposition defense

giving it to pelle this weekend

Wayne Rooney (CPL)

A part of me wants to captain my shiny new sanchez..(C) on di Maria for now

Scorpion Sting

Dusan Tadic (LEI)

Either Pelle or Di Maria, slightly favouring Pelle but something is calling out to me to go with ADM. I feel he will do well against a shaky Palace backline. Toughest decision for me so far.

Pelle
V C ADM

Aguero or Pelle.

SkySter

Angel Di Maria (CPL)

Pelle for me. Southampton on the up and Leicester side on the slide. Predict at least two goals.

Arbitrary

Dusan Tadic (LEI)

It's a very tough choice this week and i think luck is going to play a big part.

Looking at the stats with Aguero, Pelle and ADM in mind...

Leicester haven't shipped more than 2 goals on the road all season, though their form has dipped considerably and from what I saw of the highlights against Swansea, Swansea could easily have scored 3.

2-0 is a reasonable prediction imho and probably conservative, how many of those goals will Pelle bag though? Maybe 2, 1 and an assist or possibly none, they have attacking players all over the pitch banging them in at the moment, they could score 3 and he may not get on the score sheet with other player's scoring form, though i'd expect at least an assist or two.

QPR v City

QPR are a much improved side, everyone expected City to hammer CSKA and everyone for the most part have the same expectations for Saturday. I'm not convinced they will based on their form and the absence of Da Silva. We could see a city backlash and they may run riot, Liverpool scored 3 and Stoke managed 2 goals, but Ferdinand was in the line up on each occasion and they look way more solid without him. They looked well organised against Chelsea. City haven't set the world alight with their away form this season, 4 goals against Hull was the exception and Aguerro only managed to get on the score sheet once.


United v Palace

United have looked promising leading up to the edge of the box but RVP simply isn't doing the business in front of goal atm, apart from thumping QPR 4-0, they haven't managed more than 2 goals in all their home fixtures. Palace have a habit scoring and conceding a lot of goals this season (could be a good game to back for the overs). Against the minnows ADM has been bagging points all season, I expect at least a couple of assists from him.


Cliffs - TLDR

In order of preference (and still as undecided as I was before I wrote out the above.)

On a side note, screw you Ferdinand for opening your mouth on Twitter, it would be have been a no brainer with him in the lineup.

ADM
Pelle
Aguerro

TacT

Dusan Tadic (LEI)

still tempted to take a punt on ADM

PARlance

Angel Di Maria (CPL)

I'm still undecided, I fear I'm going to look like a SAP by one of Sanchez, Aguero, Pelle and then, what do you do with a problem like Di Maria.

Here's hoping they all hit double digits.

Let us know who you pick so we can avoid them!

Cantona's Collars

Costa up against Skrtl could be interesting,both love a good grapple on the field & I can see only one winner there.With the current focus on defenders wrestling with strikers in the box there could be 2 or 3 penalties in that game to Chelsea..........Still sticking with Pelle though.

Mint Sauce

Wayne Rooney (CPL)

Its a head scratcher alright. have ADM, Sanchez, Costa, and Aguero. Gut said Costa, now thinking ADM, and to make things even more interesting, based on my Squad, FFFix is recommending as my VC, Clyne.

Hazard would be the main beneficiary there. Skrtel did a good job on Costa for Slovakia against Spain however Skrtel in a Liverpool jersey is a disaster.

The Differential FPL app is recommending Pelle as the best of the top candidates. This is the first time I've actually looked at its projected points so I might keep an eye on it in future.

Ferdinand didn't actually play v Liverpool btw, so that's one aspect to eliminate from your equation

Great post.

The only flaw I'd see in that analysis is that while City not been 'setting the world alight' away admittedly, they have 2 wins, 2 draws and the defeat at West Ham. In those 5 games Aguero has scored in all but the West Ham game, picking up 5 bonus in the process. Aguero has been getting great returns away in other words, only failing to score at West Ham. He has 6 goals in 5 games at the Ethiad but 4 in one game v Spurs, blanking twice.

Small point of order ....Ferdinand didnt play aginst Liverpool. But you're right, they're better without him. Plus the fact they now have a recognised left back (Yun) playing instead of clint hill!!! Going back to a flat back 4 has suited them.

FutureGuy

I . Just. Don't. Know.

City are really struggling with their results but Aguero can still score regardless.

Pelle has the form and the fixture to get a hattrick.

I'm strongly considering Pelle...

I'm torn between ADM, Pelle, and Aguero. It's on Pelle at the moment and I'm leaning towards settling on him.
