    Head says Salah Heart says Sergio
    Is there any point having all that money tied up in him and NOT captaining?

    I have Sanchez aguero and Salah who I paid 10 ml for
    There are many factors to consider this weekend
    Money paid is not one of them
    Many teams have Kane and aguero
    Only one of them can be captained any given week

    Gone with Kane, Salah was my only other option and I have a feeling it will be a repeat of the Swansea game from a couple weeks back

    I had that same thing in my head.

    I'm not sold on Sanchez myself but I hoped by posting it and voting for it, I'd feel better about it. There tends to be goals for man united in games against Newcastle from my own memory and the point that Sanchez will hopefully be hooked from penalties is a plus. He can win them and let someone else score them.

    I have de bruyne vice captain and may switch back to him yet.... But I just have a feeling on Sanchez

    I've gone from Sanchez early in week to Salah
    To kane who I was bringing in for aguero
    Was .1 short of this move
    So now I have aguero captain
    :D

    Newcastle set up Vs city and siants against spurs has me worried
    But aguero will definitely 100% be subbed early today if they are a couple up
    This is a tough call

    Results through the ages. Tight games for the most part lately with a few blow outs every now and again

    It's between Salah and KDB for me. Salah is Salah, and KDB are at home to Leicester. I'd love to go for KDB as a differential, but I'll probably bottle it and go for Salah.

    Ditto. Arsenal are atrocious at the back and fully expect Kane to make the most of that!

    Captained Salah. But only 10 votes for Kane. I think he's been a bit overlooked here. Leader has his captained too...

    Went for Callum Wilson today, first time I haven’t gone for KDB or Eriksson since Christmas. Away to a Huddersfield team that’s leaking goals and going just one way with Bournemouth going the other.With Newcastle at home next week, he’s going to be in the shop window for international friendlies in March. Could he still play for MON, there was some speculation about him in 2016....

    Liverpool failed to score in 4 games against Southampton last season.
    2 0-0s
    2 1-0s

    This season is a completely different story though.
    Southampton have been awful at the back for the majority of the season.

    I've severe Salah fear tomorrow as both a Southampton fan and an Aguero captainer.

    Yeah I think Salah for me. If City go 2 goals up I think Aguero is hooked also, so it’s hard to see him scoring beyond 13 points.

    Only 13 points you might chuckle, but this is among the best case scenarios. Worst case scenario is other City players start the game well and he’s hooked relatively early with 2 points on the board.

    Whereas one goal for Salah could mean 11 points for him, and he’s outscored Aguero already this season and looks more threatening most weeks so I think we need to stop treating like the lesser option of the 2. I think he’s less likely to be substituted of the 2 also. With no other striker Pep will be protecting Aguero with his life.

    Conventional FPL wisdom says Aguero, but neither his recent performances, nor his circumstances suggest he is the better option. Unsure to go with the instinct that I’m supposed to have, versus my actual instinct.
    I need to just stop thinking.

    Really want to captain him over Salah but my worry is they go 2-0 up and he gets subbed early. They have Champions League on Tuesday and he's their only striker.
    Threw caution to the wind and captained Aguero in the end thankfully

    I own Kane and Aguero but of the two I think Kane is the clear choice.

    I am toying with Mane though as a Charlie Kelly type wildcard.

    There’s a few reasons I fancy Mane - he could have scored 2-3 goals in each of his last 3-4 games so he’s getting into the right positions.

    Salah might be hauled early for the midweek European game allowing Mane to get a rare 85-90 minutes.

    He will be booed all afternoon (saints fans will be flat out booing now I think of it) and I think he’ll thrive off that.

    Finally, he’s been a disaster of a signing but every week I see a reason to give him one more chance so if he failed with the armband he’d be rage sold by Monday morning.

    It’ll be a last minute call between Mane and Kane.

    Bit late to the party on this.

    I doubt there'll be much booing directed at Mane tomorrow.
    He was a great player for Southampton and stuck around for an extra season while there was already interest from a fellow midtable club (:p)

    He never went on strike, allways gave his best and hasn't come out with anything negative about the club since leaving

    I'd say there will be a slightly worse reception for the countless others, like VVD, Lovren and Lallana if they play a part.

    I am thinking this is not looking like the correct decision. The crack has not been mighty by any stretch.
