    Hazard or Giroud for me. Swaying towards Hazard at the moment.

    Hazard. Him and Kane the only players I trust to captain anymore and he has the easier fixture.

    Between Hazard, Aguero and Giroud for the captaincy.

    Hazard - Last time Chelsea played Everton they scored six goals but Everton have tightened up since then and kept 3 clean sheets in a row.

    Aguero - Has to get his first goal since his return at some point but Stoke away is a tricky fixture and City are playing poorly at the mo

    Giroud - Has the juiciest looking fixture but last time I captained Olivier he delivered an unsplendid -4 which is leaving me hesitant

    Sanchez if he starts. Giroud if not.

    Eden Hazard!

    My captains have not scored more than 5 points since Charlie Austin's hat-trick so if you want to do well this week, pick a different one :)

    The choices are Hazard, Walcott, Sturridge, Aguero or my incoming transfer whoever they may be.

    Who wins? I decide.

    I don't think I'll captain Sanchez even if he starts; too much fear of a 5 minute reoccurence of the hamstring injury.

    Giroud for me. He's in good form.

    Aguero....easy. Cold February night at Stoke, if anyone can do it he can.

    How far behind are you? Still too early for this IMO unless you're oceans behind. 14 consistently safe high scoring weeks with good attention to blank/DGWs could very easily allow you to benefit from your opponent's mistakes.

    I'm top of most of what I have identified as my key realistic targets at the moment, and I would like nothing better than for the people below me to start taking risks on less premium options in attempts to catch me.

    Defoe has only averaged a shot every 50 mins and doesn't record good BPS scores. Bring him in sure (I might) but just be aware that captaining him is a big punt with most people captaining an Arsenal player.

    Aguero is surely the differential captain of choice this week if one was looking to go down that route.

    I will Possibly captain an arsenal player but I am worried that Nigel Pearson may choke slam one of them and they go off injured...

    I will let everyone know who I pick so you can all pick someone else who will definitely do better. Generally how my captain choices go :o

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    I really thought he'd be the standout option with Sanchez a doubt (by doubt I mean returning from injury so doubtful of his returns/playing 90mins)

    I think he might have been if he'd scored yet. 2 assists probably hasn't staked his claim just yet but I fully expect that to happen very soon, because he is Aguero after all.

    Depends on starting lineups, I'm currently looking at Sanchez, Giroud, Hazard, in that order.

    Oscar or Welbeck. If Welbeck starts I might take a risk on him.

    Don't even consider it. The chap does not score anymore, doesn't even get in the positions from midfield.

    Cazorla might be a bigger differential.

    Hazard unless we get confirmation from Wenger that Sanchez is definitely starting.

    EDIT: just noticed we should see whether Sanchez starts or not before deadline so I will make my decision then!
