    My main choices are Kane and PEA.

    So do I want a punch in the face or a kick in the nuts?:P:pac:

    Rashford atm I think Brighton's style of play could play into United's hands

    If you have Auba you captain him this week of all weeks. Otherwise why do you have him?

    Purely because it would take a -4 to sell him (I had him for the DGW and used FH this week - he wasn't in it!). Aguero getting injured committed my FT.

    Both Wolves attacking and Villa’s defensive xgs have taken trends in the opposite direction since the restart. I don’t think that game has a tonne of goals in it.

    Then captain him. looking at all the other fixtures and choices he is the standout. He will surely score at least once.......

    Aubameyang can do one. Last game he’s ever playing for me. Wouldn’t captain him if I was getting x4 the points for free.

    Going with Doherty again.

    Tentatively on Jiminez at the moment but Salah and Doherty still in contention..... getting tempted by Doherty the more I think about it

    I think your right, for me it's a safe bet. Have Kane and rashford too. Kane, from what I have seen, looks like the saddest man in England. Rashford could get 3 or could do nothing.

    Between Jiménez, Kane and Rashford I would captain Kane personally. This Sheff United decline is sharp.

    I’m wavering on Doherty now.

    Even one poxy Villa goal would be a killer.

    Aubameyang is surely the safest bet. Wow. Turnaround.

    I would feel the same as you if I had Doherty. Smith has come in for a lot of criticism for the more passive performance since the restart and had vocally addressed it accordingly.

    My experience of him is that we’ll see a more attacking Villa side. Not only that, but as the games come along Villa will grow more desperate to start getting 3 points.

    I still think it’s going to be a low scoring game, Bournemouth had a 0.06 xG during the week I believe, but I don’t think I’d be using the armband on it either.

    I think I’m going to make the sensible decision on this one and captain Jiminez
    Nice old reliable 9 point Jiminez
    Going to start Grealish as well
    Just have a feeling .....

    I’d be reluctant towards Jiménez also, if only because Wolves have been outperforming their xG by a full 1.22 combined goals over the last 2 games (in a spell when they scored only 3 goals anyway).

    Granted, Jimenez does not need huge percentage chance shots to score, but I think I’d be gravitating towards the players where their team is expected to score a couple with ease.

    Sheff United and Norwich fit this bill at the mo IMO. Not sure Villa and Brighton do, and it sounds crazy to me to be saying that about Villa but for a team to go from 2 goals conceded xG on average to about 0.67 since the restart, that would be enough to make me worry for my Wolves attacker that those 3 game’s stats are not a mere outlier.

    I agree
    But
    I don’t have any players form spurs or arsenal !
    So it’s basically salah or Jiminez

    Thoughts on Rashford? With Ighalo around and Lingaard etc could get rested today and up against Brighton.

    Or Jiminez?

    Apparently Brighton didn’t concede any big chances in the Arsenal and Leicester games, the only goal conceded came from a Pepe worldie

    Usually sets the gameweek up for disappointment.

    I'd say Pool and City will both be full strength. Neither manager will want to come out on bottom.

    Went with Salah. Takes penalties, Milner wont play, he ll be up against Mendy or Zinchenko both are very poor.

    No Fernandinho either. And yeah, Pool have some rest + will go out all guns blazing, no champions league or FA cup to save themselves for
