    Mané with Tammy as a doubt

    Lot of genuine captain choices

    Plenty of options this week but between Vardy and a Pool attacker for me.

    As bad as they have been Everton rank best for away defences this season. Least shots conceded, least shots in the box and least big chances. Which all adds up to least expected GC too. Bit of a mad one as they always seem to concede. Brighton one of the worst for big chances conceded and expected GC away from home. Leicester one of the worst xGs at home this season too.

    In saying that Leicester look class visually and Everton terrible.

    Coin flip at the minute for me between Vardy and Salah/Mane.

    On Mane at the moment but with the news coming from the Emirates am genuinely tempted by Aubameyang

    Thought the same but can’t see myself following through on it

    Very tempted by Mount.

    Will probably chicken out to Mane in the end though.

    Liverpool had a tough game midweek so I'm going with Vardy.

    Also I have it slightly in my head that Manè might get a rest in one game somewhere with all the fixtures coming up. Now maybe that won't happen, but if it does then this weekend would actually make sense.

    Had similar concerns but with Salah looking so far off the pace mid week can't see it being this week, when Salah is back to full speed be will rest Mane IMO

    I might go with Robbo or Chilwell as a punt to make things a bit more interesting.

    Spurs captain for me.

    "You mean Kane?"

    No, I mean Son

    "Ah, Heung Min Son".

    Going more on hope than form, Mo Salah it is.

    I have captaincy on KDB, but I'm torn between Jesus and himself.... Had to make multiple changes to my team with Tammy and aguero both out.

    I figured Jesus will be guaranteed game time with aguero injured, so brought him in ... And with the spare cash I (stupidly) added lacazette (have a feeling arsenal will play a bit better against a Norwich team who can concede plenty on any given day) ... I'm hopeful for this to be the moment my season starts...lol... Sitting around the 1.5/2mill mark at the moment.

    Newcastle have been tight at home, don't think they've conceded more than one in any game. Would be reluctant to captain a city player.

    Conceded 2 against Bournemouth in their last home game. I’m not captaining a City player either though.

    No they beat Bournemouth 2-1. They have been tight at home but I’m still chancing Jesus. Have a feeling Everton will put in a big performance this weekend so that put me off Vardy.

    Had set up after last GW with Abraham captain and Mount VC.

    Not sure now.

    Will probably go Mane or Vardy.

    Think Chelsea will score a **** load though so Mount still a consideration.

    Vardy all day for me....Leicester flying, Everton conceded twice against Norwich.

    Have Kane now as well but not letting him near the armband ever again
