    Worst GW..... ever. It could get even worse if both Chadli and Rose miss out.

    I'm only talking about the top 10k where 53% captained Aguero; it was even higher in the top 1k (64%)

    Where do you get these stats?

    Still significant I'd argue. I have to admit I was torn myself on which to captain so for some of us it wasn't as obvious as for others I reckon

    Do many still have Sterling or is it mainly zombie/semi zombie and those with more pressing concerns? Coupled with a few keeping the faith.

    Trying to figure out my hiding behind the couch settings for the day :) I think I rode out not having him at any point quite well so far, barring a few moments and not gaining any value on him. Emphasis on "so far". Cue a hat-trick now :(

    In the top 10k he is the 9th most selected mid still! 15.3% still have him a few even have him benched this week which makes it even more bizarre!

    I'm still keeping faith in Sterling. It was never a pressing concern to rid myself of him. I like how he plays and he'll always be a threat in games. His fixtures have always looked too promising when I felt like dumping him and with Palace, Stoke, Leicester and Sunderland in the next 4 I predict he'll be with me until that's done.

    This guy (best top 10K score for the moment) is doing incredibly well without Costa Aguero and Sanchez :eek:.

    That guy is a genius. He's in the top 1000 and has never owned Aguero and hasn't had Sanchez since week 4. I would have thought it almost impossible

    He captained Bony for 26 points in GW9 when most had Aguero for 4. Masterstroke!

    71 with 3 to play and Janmaat's 6 subbing in for Baines.

    The question is can he keep that going for the entire season? I mean these 3 lads could well be the top 3 best scorers come GW38. Managing performing alternatives for the whole season sounds impossible alright.

    With 0.8 in the bank he could be in trouble.

    I bet he has some fun watching this gameweek, though.
    Different way to play but very rewarding when things go well.

    I've been saying to my Liverpool-supporting mate all week that Liverpool need to give Lambert a run.

    How much is he in the game?

    I thought he only started because both Ballotelli and Sturridge are injured.

    He is expensive - 6.9m

    Perfect. Now they can all calm down, Sterling in particular.

    Bolasie has been very good today. He's so hit or miss, some days his end product can be atrocious then the next day he's on fire.

    I like the look of him as a Downing replacement if the knee injury is serious

    Fluke tbh. If he doesn't change, he'll quickly fall down the rankings.

    I think its fair to say from his history he is not an FPL genius just one random person making crazy decisions that week after week are getting ridiculously lucky!
