    My hope is to keep TC loyalty with Sanchez after 75 point score last year. He is more explosive than Aguero this year.

    Aguero scored more or less the same that week.

    Further to the insights from Busts re the future DGWs Arsenal's potential doubles don't look so great.

    37 will be Stoke (a) and either Leicester (h) or Southampton (a). Not bad but that's gonna be the big DGW and possibly Bench Boost time.

    Other possibilities are:
    35 Spurs (a) and either Leicester (h) or Southampton (a)
    36 Man U (h) either Leicester (h) or Southampton (a)

    I'd also fear Arsenal having little motivation by then with 4th in the bag, chances Wenger on the way out and highly likely Sanchez heading out the door too.

    So 3 out of 5 captaining Kun are using the TC chip, myself included.
    Some are saving TC for league/H2H reasons and others are waiting on Sanchez or Ibra later.
    Is the number of City in our squad a major factor in the Kun TC decision?
    Will Hackers and others with Kun only be more or less likely to play the chip?
    The same question goes for those with Kun plus 1 and Kun plus 2.

    I voted Aguero normal captain, but pretty sure I'm going to TC now. Looking at other potential TCs in later GWs has me thinking that there won't be a better combination of games than sun, STO.

    Gone with TC on Aguero. Can't see better fixtures for a TC and too much time for the likes of Sanchez to get injured and scupper the whole thing!

    The major factor is we just cannot be certain he will start both or even play close to 180 minutes

    Ibra/Sanchez would for sure and have penalties

    That's what is holding me back
    For now

    TC on kun for me too - much the same reasoning and also playing my min rival in H2H league this week so really need a win.

    Originally voted Aguero normal captain but after reading that damned article on possible future DGWs captains, it looks like the time is now!
    Aguero (TC)

  • Registered Users Posts: 7,028 ✭✭✭COH


    Voted Aguerro (c) in the poll but caved and activated (TC) this morning

    Pretty much sums up how I feel now
    I'd rather be in and fail than have regrets

    De Bruyne.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,131 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Change one of those votes from normal to TC aguero


    :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,765 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    Jesus I am terrified of the potential consequences here


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,294 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    Single Captain on Kun. Hoping there will be a better opportunity for a TC at a later date, and going by the numbers doing TC this week, it will be a nice differencal. Especially if Kun blanks.

    Go big or go home,it's like seeing a gorgeous woman at the bar and while thinking if you should talk to her you see your mate walk up and pull her.
    TC Aguero and worry about it later.

    Some of us are waiting for the potential of 2 beautiful women at once if circumstances pan out the right way :)

    Back and forth all morning, was heavily leaning towards normal captain but changed to TC with ten minutes to go. I had a feeling a load of people in my private leagues would see how much sense it made, not give it anywhere near the same agonising consideration, go for it, and be richly rewarded. Turns out most of them have indeed done that, so at least it'll be parity in my money league if things go badly.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,262 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    Fudge this game anyway. Kept and captained in-form Ibra as opposed to another -4 to get Kun. All last season and most of this season captain choice is destroying me. So frustrating


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,642 ✭✭✭Deco99


    160k TC kun. At best, par, at worst waste of a chip

    What's your thinking behind that?


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,359 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    Nobody in my money league TC'd him. Could make big gains this week

    Same. One of my rivals even benched Kdb lol


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,962 ✭✭✭Hogey007


    I'm up against someone in europa league that captained stones.
    Could work out but not something I'd have done.
