    I was on Sanchez(c) but this calf thing has led me to switch to Big Rom

    Not at all. Costa is a great option this week, just not many of us have him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,633 ✭✭✭✭8-10


    Lukaku (AVL)
    I don't normally like captaining a player from a team near the relegation zone but Costa has a pretty good fixture


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,205 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    Lukaku.

    The fear of choosing him as captain is worse than anything you will experience your FPL career.

    Not quite. Try captaining Pellè.

    the pill here is reflective of FFS one
    lukaku miles ahead
    and I don't have him.......and have vowed never too again never mind captain him!
    may get kane though and captain him
    (almost certain I will provided he doesn't get injured tonight )

    He may have blanked in the two internationals vs France & Spain but surely Kane must be one of the better contenders for (C) this week vs a West Ham side missing their best player and haven't kept a CS in 7 games since mid Sept.

    Kane got an assist at West Ham last year and scored in WHL against their rivals. He's coming into form with 5 in his last 3 looking like the real deal and why he earned last years young player of the year.

    Anyone else getting on him?

    Mulling over a -4 to get him in as captain ......

    Mahrez (new)
    Vardy to level the record - Mahrez will even let him take the penalties.

    I have Lukaku but I will NEVER captain him

    Used the second FT on him, I think he'll be well worth it..

    I'd have to get him for pelle, which is fine, but I want to get aguero when he's back.

    Pelle to Sergio is an easier transfer than Kane to Sergio ;)

    My thoughts on captaincy this week:

    Sanchez - he's my biggest hitter and playing against WBA. It's an obvious choice. That was last weekend - then the voices start to creep in.. Alexis has blanked in 8/12 games.. Tony Pulis loves a clean sheet.. he has a sore calf and played poorly last night.. Wenger has limited his game time after internationals..

    Ok change to Lukaku.. He's bang on form, playing bottom of table villa. But I still don't really rate Romelu.. Bad enough having him in my team again.. Always blanks when ya least expect it.. That Remi Garde is a defensive genius.. 0-0 with city.. Maybe I should change to

    Harry Kane.. Newly transferred in and back in form too. Has great stats recently aswel. West Ham have lost payet and are losing their way a bit plus Spurs are coming good too so they should win - and when Spurs win Kane nearly always features. Ahh but what about west hams amazing form against top sides.. They sit really deep don't they and Spurs never really score many goals anyway.. Hmmm back to alexis then..

    Lukaku (AVL)
    Have it on Costa atm (Mane vc). Chelsea are gonna hammer some team very soon, and i think Norwich could bear the brunt. Team news pending I'll probably be getting Lukaku in for Pelle, though not too sold on giving him the armband, despite him being the overwhelming favourite this gw

    I'll probably pick Kane but part of me is thinking cabaye. Palace have Sunderland at home Monday night, he has scored a good few goals and is on penalties


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,848 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Am I daft to be considering Defalou as captain?

    Bit punty. He rarely completes 90 min and is more an assister than goalscorer

    lukaku end thread

    In the five games he's started he's got a goal and six assists.
    But ur right, Costa it is

    Vardy (new)
    I voted for Lukaku but the more I think about it, the more I'm leaning towards Vardy. Once in a lifetime opportunity that everyone in his team will be wanting him to get!

    Vardy: 11/10
    Lukaku: 10/11

    Really marginal either way I think, but I just don't know what side I'll fall on now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,677 ✭✭✭Aenaes


    Pelle (STO)
    I think I'll be going Mahrez.

    Mahrez Sanchez Payet(will probably be downgraded to Wanyama) De Bruyne Ozil
    Ighalo Vardy Mbokani

    I don't think Vardy is going to equal the record especially playing with an injury. Hopefully emphasis on him frees up some space and time for Mahrez.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,785 ✭✭✭Dubliner28


    Ozil (wba)
    Currently on Lukaku
    Feel Villa with a new manager will keep it tight so Ozil,Sanchez and Vardy also considered


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,584 ✭✭✭NoviGlitzko


    Either Giroud or Lukaku. Not sure yet.

    Each one of my XI players is a potential captain.
    Hennessey (SUN)
    Bellerín (wba) Bertrand (STK) Kolarov (LIV) Smalling (wat)
    Sánchez (wba) De Bruyne (LIV) Mahrez (new)
    Vardy (new) Pellè (STK) Kane (WHU)

    My back 5 for good chance of a CS and/or attacking returns. That said, I don't think I'll ever captain a def or a goalie (he'd need to have a quadruple gameweek or so for me to give in to it :p).
    My miidfielders for their form & fixtures. Ditto my front 3.

    But Sanchez & Vardy had "knocks".
    Kane is facing WH tremendous away form (will it be the same without Payet though?).
    KDB is consistent but not explosive lately. He missed Silvagüero.
    Pellè is Pellè. Or shall I rather say BUIB.
    And Mahrez could be dropped (??).

    What a nightmare :rolleyes: :pac:....
