    Lukaku has Leicester at home that week so don't think Kane (c) is a foregone conclusion now.

    I don't own Kane but I'll find it very hard to resist getting him in and giving him the armband for that game. For those that have gone with Kane from the start I think you have to give him at least those 3 gws.

    Have Kane Lukaku and Gabbi

    Tempted to bring in Mounie for Gabbi but he might be a flash in the pan merchant!

    Do we reckon Ramsey is nailed on to start next week? I'm between him or Willian to replace Fabregas

    I didn't think he is certain but likely
    I think people doing fab to willian are taking a risk
    There are 2 gws left until into break when I think hazard is back
    One is spurs away with a depleted team.......for the first hour yday as well willian was anonymous

    I'm actually considering Kane captain against Chelsea now though !
    He was poor today but still had a one on one and hit the post
    Chelsea were all over the place
    Think he has a good record against them too?

    Not the greatest, 4 goals in 8 games and 2 coming in one game. Not sure on assists but would like to see if anyone has them?

    Nonetheless, I'm definitely thinking of captaining Kane this weekend, Chelsea looked really awful yesterday, albeit without Cahill. There was no leadership or shape and Cahill will be a big loss.

    Luiz, Rudiger, Christensen, I'd expect Kane to do well against, didn't have the best of games today but still looked decent hitting the post and having a goal disallowed. He'll want to break that August 'record' as well as I wouldn't back against him doing it vs Chelsea

    Considering what Chelsea have, it could even be a back 4 with Luiz having to go into midfield, so it'd be Kane vs Rudiger and Christensen

    With Moses free to come back in at RWB, Azpi should go back to his usual position beside Luiz and one of Rudiger/Christensen

    Have gone Iwobi to Mooy.

    Really impressive yesterday. 3 of the Huddersfield next 4 are at home... how many times have we seen it before with promoted riding the crest of the waves early doors.

    Interesting ...........I think I'll do that too
    He impressed on Motd
    Would allow Gabbi to firmino too just in case pool don't fall foul of their bogey team again !
    Will probably have to wait in zaha news though in case he he is out longer than fab

    I'm talking about getting in Kane for gw3 to captain home against Burnley not the Chelsea game. I didn't start off with him as I didn't plan on captaining him till then.

    Think that was a reply to me as I said I'm thinking about it

    Maybe someone who can do polls can set up the captaincy thread

    Transfers done. Busy week ahead so don't want to be over thinking this.
    The Liverpool champions league games made me sway towards vardy as opposed to firmino (with a view towards captaincy too)

    Gabbi & cesc out for vardy & xhaka (for -4 obviously)

    I have gabbi in draft so won't be too disappointed if he does well.

    I'd default to Ramsey but Ox could be worth a look - had a fair few chances.

    Think I'm gonna do Mee to Hegazi just for the price rises. No other pressing issues in my team. Hegazi will replace Mee on my bench GW2 but will be a better option to start GW3.

    Wonder should I just do Iwobi to Chaka for the price rise.

    Might be too late now anyhow.

    It's 1.15am innit ?

    Walker had a good game yest. Granted i had audio only but was always spoken off in a positive light and had the freedom to push forward all the time, granted the opposition wasn't great.

    Great exchange!

    Walker-Peters and Walker are two different players :P

    Silva if you're only thinking of those two imo. But I wouldn't want either personally.

    So it wouldn't be an opening weekend of FPl without a few ol' injuries. Betrand supposedly came off with a knock and my secret weapon of Lejeune was assaulted by Kane and laster 30 mins.

    Means I have to wait for injury news. If Bertrand is ok, I'll bank the transfer I think.
