    Used my TC in GW1 so it’s Mane as single captain for this week

    I wasn’t myself but there was a spread shared in the General Chat thread & some interesting scores of all Liverpool 2 games where combined to make Double Weeks.

    Would you consider 10-14 as an acceptable score for your TC?

    Wasn’t there something done previous to show what the chip was worth?

    Looking at the graph now, I think a TC is a very good chance of hitting a 10+ score regardless who you pick for Liverpool (famous last words)

    I opted to WC instead of a TC on Mane or TAA. Liverpool won't rest any players unless they're coming off around 60-70th minute because they're 2/3 up.

    I'll likely be sticking with TAA as Captain or VVD as both will get 180 minutes. Where as the others score depending may only get 160 or 140.

    Accidentally voted TAA captain but I'll likely Salah TC. Have to watch yesterdays game first.

    Used the TC on Aguero last GW (:cool:) so going Mane this GW - he's bound to rip it up in one or both matches.

    Mane's form has dripped off a bit of late and Salah is very unpredictable. TAA seems the safest bet.

    Mané, though i'm not overly confident. Form would suggest a defender is a better bet, but it's two away games and i'd fancy Wolves to score in that game. Meh

    No one worried about rests/rotation? They are 16 points clear now.

    Not really. Remaining unbeaten for the season is extra motivation. FA cup will see players rested. Then there's the international break after gw25.

    8 days between Spurs and Man U, 5 to Wolves and 6 to West Ham (most won't play the cup).

    They also have the mid season break coming up in 2 weeks.

    Can't see there being much resting of the key assets.

    Is bobby TC the logical choice? I see salah and mane being rested. Think bobby will play both.

    They'll rest when they're dead. Or when they've won the league at least.

    Decided to TC. Have Mane, TAA, and Gomez.

    So, between Mane and TAA. Currently on TAA, but expecting that to change many times before the deadline.

    Mane for me.

    BB so no TC, going to hold the TC until I find a suitable CB in a crap team.

    Wolves are 8/15 to score a goal in that game. West Ham are 8/13 to.

    Trent has 45 points from attacking returns.
    Salah has 70 points from attacking returns.
    Mane has has 79 points from attacking returns.
    Salah has played a game less than Mane. Trent one more than Mane again.

    This is an overly simplistic view of things, admittedly, and Trent is more likely to pick up bonus points if he does get returns, but I’m a lot more worried about a 4 point score from Trent than I am the other 2, and I wouldn’t say I’m especially more confident about a 20 plus score from him than I am the other 2 (Mane is the one who rules the roost with 6 double digit scores).

    Milner remains injured and Salah is gonna get to take a penalty (-6 for a miss impending) at some stage soon right?

    If you've got double pool defence I think you've really got to go Mane here - you're already really well covered for cleanies with two defenders

    The odds for a Liverpool clean sheet are very similar to Mane or Salah scoring a goal anytime. So little difference. Can only get one clean sheet of course.

    Would be fairly certain Salah and Mane will both be odds on for a goal against West Ham.

    4 days between the game sunday and the first one Thursday. None of the first team will start against Shrewsbury at the weekend so that means 6 days rest before playing west ham.

    And klopp isn't pep, so theres no reason to rotate. If he does, he does. Nothing you can do about.

    I'd be far more petrified of leaving it till end of the season when full rotation might be in full effect when everything is over. I cant see klopp taking his foot off the pedal until they mathematically cannot lose. Not after last season. They are making sure!

    Voted team captain Mane but am going to change to triple captain Mane. Too much risk of Liverpool having the league wrapped up before the next double game week and this could be the best time to play the chip.
