    Probably some will want to hear more about Costa's fitness, but I'll get the ball rolling anyway. Hazard 100% for me, Theo VC

    Ramsey (WHU)
    Yeah, this is almost a secondary decision for me right now given my decisions on who to go with full stop.

    With that said, I think Costa, Hazard, Walcott will top any poll so I can see me making sure I've at least 1 of these guys to ensure I've a good captain option.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,267 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    Giroud (WHU)
    Costa for me. Giroud or Ozil vice


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Kane (mun)
    Probably Costa


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    Costa (SWA)
    Hazard. Going on hols soon and can't be doing with the roaming charges checking on Costa's fitness


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Costa (SWA)
    I'd love to go with Walcott but I'm going to play it safe and go with Hazard.

    I'm going with a safe option to start the season, so it'll be Hazard captain.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,502 ✭✭✭spock.


    Costa (SWA)
    Hazard, no question


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 268 ✭✭Paddy Dreadful


    Kane (mun)
    I think depay could be worth a shout, he seems wallcottesque in that hes more a striker than a midfielder


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,810 ✭✭✭✭jimmii


    Costa (SWA)
    Hazard. Not even considered anyone else.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,921 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    Ramsey (WHU)
    No Aguero option? ;)

    Not playing catch up early on. Hazard all the way.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,369 ✭✭✭the incredible pudding


    I'm currently without Hazard but might get him in just so i can captain him first week (I don't think Fabregas is a good captaincy option for some reason, despite his potential to get a couple of assists....)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,780 ✭✭✭✭2nd Row Donkey


    Kane.

    I think it will take a couple of weeks for united to get into their stride.

    GW1 is a bit like GW38 in that it throws up bizarre scores. Not saying Spurs will win at OT but I could see a 2-2 draw or something like that.

    Using my triple captain chip on Lukaku - get the season off to a bang.

    Seriously though, Hazard.

    Don't even joke about that you'll give people ideas!!

    Was going with Costa but unless Jose says he will definitely start, I'll have to go with Hazard. Only problem is, I didn't intend picking Hazard in my 15 :(

    There might be a chip for that:pac:

    Seriously, I haven't got a clue, but I'm fairly sure it will be a striker rather than a midfielder when the world is my oyster like this.

    Hazard, so boring.

    Don't really want him in my team but I'm being forced by massive ownership % to have and captain him.

    Go with your gut then. First few months of the season are the best time to take some risks to get ahead. I went without Costa from Oct to Jan and benefited, captained Siggy GW3, etc.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    Ramsey (WHU)
    Walcott at the minute

    Having Fabregas instead gives me more options tbh. I wanted to try the Fab gamble till early WC, easy correct then.

    Tempted by that too. But if Costa is cleared fit i think he'll definitely play, esp given how useless both his standins were yesterday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Um where's the PVA option? :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,775 ✭✭✭✭Slattsy


    An Arsenal player

    Lukaku


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 9,620 ✭✭✭Backstreet Moyes


    Going to take a punt on Walcott even if its a risk. I fancy Arsenal to score a few.

    No Benteke love here!?!

    Away to Stoke on his debut for a new club would be a huge call.
