    My disastrous run of gameweeks continues :) will be out to 5k at least after this!

    Will drop the wildcard the second I get home from the in-laws.

    I think Sanchez has to get a serious look in for certain fixtures. He has the same potential I reckon.

    If bonus stay as they are currently I'll be on 58 with 5 to play. Happy enough with that I guess but the ADM transfer last week is really annoying me

    Selling him for Puncheon, only wish I'd done it this week instead of giving him another game.

    Love this. You were on here not long ago berating people for underplaying a great score.

    43 after bonuses with Aguero (c), Silva, Sanchez and Wisdom left to play. The gameweek hinges on how well Kun does but if he even just gets an assist I should see green arrows on Monday night.

    You have 50 points. I would happily have a captain disaster and have 50 points now.

    I've had about 6 blanks in a row for my captains!

    With only 2 to play & no Aguero, some of my rivals with him as skipper.. makes me very nervous!

    Pressure on Aguero now tomorrow, need him score 15 plus as Costa Capper's killing me in my mini league.

    Longterm, I wouldn't worry about about anyone who captained Costa for two reasons...

    1) He is a horrible captain choice so it was a bad move unless...
    2) They have no better captain choice which means their team is bad

    Short term, a bad choice may work out (i.e captaining Costa) but long term, consistently making the better choices will win out.

    As you said, Aguero to come and I have a third big mid in Silva to come instead of Costa.

    Anyone who captained Costa has to be delighted. Kicking myself I didn't.

    But what is tongue in cheek to one, may not be to another.

    Like what is a joke (the AUSTIN) thing, may not be a joke to others.

    And you'll never get rid of something, if it's ok for some to say it and defend it with "only tongue in cheek", but then another poster says it and gets shot by the masses

    He wasn't a horrible captain choice. Against a lumbering Swansea defence who capitulate against decent opposition regularly, including Chelsea already this season. Costa had 4 in 6 before this game. Not following the crowd does not a bad captain choice make.....

    Definitely not a bad pick but not the best pick for sure. We know Costa can score against anyone though so if you like a bit of a punt was definitely a good option to go for.
