    Kane (lei)
    Toss up between Hazard, Sanchez and Bony.
    Like the idea of rested Bony but Villa are resistant. If I had Giroud, it would be him. Gonna go with Sanchez and Bony vc.
    Goin to go with Bony vc as pretty confident he will play. Bit risky to have c and vc who may be subject to rotation.

    Brought in Kane with a view to captaincy.....he's a young lad but on fire at mo and against a leaky Leicester defence...here's hoping:)

    He was excellent at the weekend. I plan to get him in the wildcard.

    I haven't a breeze to be honest. I don't reckon I'll be getting a high score on Friday at all. Too many variables and several of my players are playing each other and that's a FPL pain if ever there was one. I have it on Hazard at the minute with vice on Bony, though Sanchez, RVP, and Silva are all credible picks too.

    I dunno. I have five options so I might just roll a dice. ;)

    Why? QPR are a form team!

    They are a form team at home, a terrible away team. A poor team in fairness who leak goals and will be relegated

    I'm not sure about relegation for them to be honest. I think Burnley and Leicester will go and then you could have any one of a number of teams.

    QPR's problems are at the back and I think cash will be splashed there in January.

    Not on current form and not against WH.

    Costa is a poor captaincy choice as he never rates high for Bps either!

    Would you not say Sanchez is the same? Have it on Sanchez at the minute.

    No, I'd say there is some chance of Sanchez playing both games, so I'd make him about 65-75% for either game right now (obviously his percentage would drop significantly for the 2nd game if he plays the 1st)

    Whereas Costa, I would be stunned if he played both games, so I think it is almost a straight up question of which one he plays and which one he rests.

    I wouldnt. He was rested and never travelled against Galatasaray with the importance of the Xmas period in mind.

    People only having doubts because he was poor against Liverpool... the old excuse, 'he looked tired'

    He is the main man and he will play. He will start and he will score! He will be brought off after 65mins when they are 4-1 up.

    Fair enough. Costa is probably more likely to play v Southampton I guess.

    Don't know really but have 4 good options in theory.

    - RVP is destined to haunt me this season I reckon so maybe just having him will be enough if he does decide to perform but then Alwnick is in goal.
    - Bony has had his rest one assumes and is very tempting. Who knows what Villa side will show up and Wilf certainly is due an explosion of points.
    - Sanchez at home to QPR is probably the wisest choice and is probably the leading contender for the masses I assume
    - Hazard is Hazard but little doubts with that knock and the fact he hasn't had a rest yet.

    Yaya definitely the best option. Oscar, welbeck or kaku not the worst punt. Nice to see a fairly different team there!

    I think he's in a draft league so that would explain it.

    Bony (AVL)
    FF Scout members article regarding the captaincy choice for this gameweek has put me off Sanchez to be honest.

    **** it, Van Persie's getting my armband (again) and I'm logging out of FPL until after tomorrows deadline pending anything dramatic coming to our knowledge between now and then. If he does nothing it's a perfect excuse for me to transfer him out and load up in midfield/defence :pac:

    Costa (WHU)
    Yet again I'm completely torn. I can't see why Arsenal would rest Sanchez but the talk of how he might be dropped is getting to me. Currently have it on Sanchez but might just change it to Kane at the last minute. Then again, there's always Bony...
