    Either Benteke or Zaha for me.....or maybe Lukaku...or Kane...or Sanchez.

    Voted for Zaha in the poll....probably more potential for an explosion than Benteke

    Valencia (bur, mci)
    My biggest concern with Rashford isn't necessarily that he won't start. Rather, there will be zero space behind that Burnley home defence and Rashford isn't the kind of technically gifted player who will usually make something from nothing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    Still leaning towards Zaha my self, and holding off the TC till GW36.

    Benteke. And if there's a fourth poll I'll still go for him.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,596 ✭✭✭threein99


    Rashford (bur, mci)
    Negredo or Lukaku for me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,428 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    Coutinho (CPL)
    It's strange that I can choose Kane or Firmino playing Palace


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,264 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    Mkhitaryan (bur, mci)
    Rashers


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    Gibson (bou, SUN)
    Negredo for me

    I can't believe I'm fearing a Negredo haul... Actually I can't believe so many have him and are captaining him! :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 411 ✭✭Delboy2015


    Gibson (bou, SUN)
    Negredo TC, judge me on this next Wednesday :pac:

    For some reason I'm expecting King to bring in a good haul against Middlesbrough.

    Going with the pack on this one. (c) Negredo.

    I was thinking of Negredo before I saw the poll results. Both Palace and United have tough enough fixtures. Middlesborough have good fixtures. Negredo is by no means prolific, but playing against Bournemouth and Sunderland, you'd have to fancy him getting at least 1 goal.

    Of course, there's always a SGW player, but where's the fun in that!

    That Middlesbrough attack is utter poison. I couldn't bring myself to be stuck with him. But I think for most it's a punt, knowing he can be gotten rid of next GW, or with a WC very soon.

    Lukaku has scored in his last 9 games against West Ham according to the Football Weekly podcast.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,428 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    Coutinho (CPL)
    Think this is a week for a punt. If I'd Benteke or Negredo I'd go with them.

    I don't, so thinking Sanchez or Firmino


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,642 ✭✭✭Deco99


    Have Negredo.... Have Benteke.....have Zaha....have Rashford..... Have Bailly...Sanchez, Hazard, Erikson.....I'm captaining Martial. If Rashford up top Martial on left, rashford rested Martial up top. So goes my thinking

    That's a crazy gamble to be taking on a lot of ifs imo.

    Sticking it on Negredo


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭bantee


    Gibson (bou, SUN)
    Between Zaha and Lukaku, on the latter for now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,709 ✭✭✭✭Cantona's Collars


    Took a hit to swap Zlatan for Rashford so captain Rashers it is.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    At least PVA was in the second poll....

    Also the urge to captain him is rising. It's currently on Spacecraft but that's just a gateway towards utter lunacy.

    It's not DGW37, it's not Sunderland and he's a rotation risk. It makes no sense. But still!

    Rashford (bur, mci)
    Currently on Lukaku, not with any degree of confidence mind.

    Very confused this week :confused:


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,672 ✭✭✭ScummyMan


    Coutinho (CPL)
    No idea what to do this week.

    I think you should be able to save a captain's choice. If I didn't want to use it this week, I'll have two next week! In fact, give each player 38 captain chips (one for each week), and it's up to the players to use whenever.

    IMAGINE the possibilities. You have 11 DGW players and you captain ALL OF THEM :D


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,336 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Gibson (bou, SUN)
    Transferred Ibra in earlier this week, so just taken a hit and replaced him with Negredo and made him captain. Still have BB and TC chips, in two minds about playing one of them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,484 ✭✭✭✭Tauriel


    Aguero (MUN)
    I went with Alli this GW.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,831 ✭✭✭shineon23


    Gibson (bou, SUN)
    Negredo El Capitán

    Bringing my strict Spanish strategy back into play.

    Don't think any of my rivals will buy him let alone captain him so it's gamble to gain points, 1 goal between 2 games should get him 16 points minimum if no bps.

    I haven't had it in me to sell him. I figure he has to find some form soon and Chelsea's fixtures are great

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,459 ✭✭✭T-b0n3


    Rashford (bur, mci)
    Voted Lukaku but I have it on King at the moment. Zaha only DGW, reluctant to go with Kane with the semi today so it's between Lukaku and King for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,996 ✭✭✭✭billymitchell


    Gibson (bou, SUN)
    Put it on Alonso, not sure why though

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,186 ✭✭✭domrush


    Anyone thinking Rashford?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,042 ✭✭✭remoteboy


    Valencia (bur, mci)
    I'm thinking Valencia. Just not confident he'll play both games. Surely he must given United's injury situation.

    Zaha (liv, TOT)

    Darmian will play somewhere tomorrow
    So will Ashley young

    Don't risk it

    A defender with a sgw coming back from illness with a game to play before first ?
    You must have better options

    None of my dgw options really appeal to me, kane or Alli also don't massively appeal away to a tricky palace side. Lukaku perhaps, but he always lets me down. It's a bit of a meh week for captains choice

    If you have zaha or benteke they are better options than him
    Even de Gea
    So is lukaku
