Gameweek 17 – The FPL Captain Poll

Filed under: Fantasy Football Team Selection - Posted by: Mark

Breaking with my traditional tardiness, the weekly FPL captain poll is up and running in your middle column. Should be an interesting one this given…well..you know Ronaldo’s hip and all.

While we await news on that particular situation, the poll gives us all an opportunity to ponder alternative armband candidates for the gameweek ahead. As always, use this thread to express opinions on the issue. You’ll find it linked under “Featured Discussions” in the middle column from this point on.

    Why do you keep saying Barfa will be in there? Pardew clearly doesn't see him as a first XI player. »
