    Defoe's goals this season have been away to city and saints !
    was going to drop him but not now
    I seem to recall a similar trend last year with him or am I wrong ?????

    Not sure of the exact stats but he has a great record away from home. It's the reason I'm playing him over Capoue.

    just checked 4 home 11 away goals last year !
    bizarre

    decision made
    now for captain
    Sanchez or Ibra ( very high ownership worries me )
    or benteke !

    Scores disproportionately in away matches. Former club, on pens with Mike Dean ref. I wouldn't bench

    Heaton
    Friend - McAuley - Valencia
    Hazard - Mirallas - Townsend - Mane
    Costa - Vardy - Zlatan (c)

    Jaku: Capoue - Amat - Souare

    Hopefully tonight will see a few goals.

    Boring safety captain in Zlatan seeing as I couldn't pick a player to swap Iheanacho out for and captain him. Is an early Sunday game as likely to be a 0-0 as a Saturday? :)

    James Pearce has it. He's usually reliable, but this is the 1st I've heard of any injury.
