    I'm still looking for the opportunity to make a massive gamble/leap of faith on a captain no one else has

    I remember last year I captained Walcott home to Newcastle

    3 goals, 2 assists, man of the match

    He single handed my got me something like 58 points

    The stuff dreams are made of

    Cleared 120 points that week

    Most common last week was RVP, you seen how that worked out. Now sure how you could see past a Liverpool player though this weekend.

    Chose Sturridge, if I had Suarez it'd be him.

    I have Sturridge, but there is just something about this game which makes me want to back away. Can see it ending 1-0, just don't see a trouncing.

    VERY tempted to captain Rooney.

    that's the sort of punt at a differential that makes sense.

    not too risky, but different to the majority of others. i'm weighing it up myself. the lack of others in my leagues with Suarez has me leaning that way though.

    on paper you would expect Suarez of Sturridge to get a bag load of points at home against Palace.....

    but my only worry is, Liverpool tend to find it hard to break smaller teams down at home,

    Only beat Stoke by one and Failed to score against Southampton, and if history is anything to go by Palace could spring a surprise. looks at the home results of last few seasons.

    Im a pool fan so I really hope and and hope Suarez does bang in a hat trick... but you never know

    So are we predicting Rooney will start?

    I have Roo, Sturridge, and Giroud. Keeping Roo on 75%, simply 'cause the last 3 players I've subbed out due to being at 75%, have gone on to score at the weekend. Sigh.

    United are due a big game scoring wise and why not against a poor Sunderland team? Rooney being a doubt is annoying but I just brought in Nani as my punt for this week, Valencia wasn't up to much the other day so reckon Nani will reclaim his place. He could have had 2 or 3 assists last week if the strikers were on form and Sunderland have been woeful so far. I reckon a 3/4-0 win could be on the cards for United but Sturridge is still in the back of my head.

    **** it, going for Rooney over Sturridge as captain tomorrow. Would take a 0-0 at Anfield.

    My prediction for Liverpool vs Crystal Palace: 3-0. But I also have a bet on 4-0. Hopefully Suarez will get the hat trick and Sturridge will get the assists, plus an additional goal.

    Ive had it on Suarez all week but going by this poll and the one on FFS im half tempted to switch to Rooney or Ozil as it will be a huge differential if it works out! On the other hand if it doesnt and that massive majority have gone for Suarez it will leave me even further behind!:confused:

    Maybe now is the not the time to be brave... (currently lingering around 600k:o)

    Brought in Suarez,4 point hit to fund it so he's captain.Knowing my luck with captain choices this season,he'll miss 3 penalties and get sent off:o

    Very lucky in fairness to finish a full 6 points ahead of Suarez captainers, who should have finished 2 points ahead of you going by the final whistle BP allocation! An 8 point swing because someone in FF towers decided to dock him points. Hopefully someone gets some more info on it, would be nice to see some transparency.

    In saying that, going by the old BP system I would have thought Sturridge deserved the 3 BP's, easily MOTM.
