Captain Sensible – Gameweek 15

We roll out another instalment of our new weekly article for Members this evening, offering an in-depth statistical analysis of the main captaincy contenders for the Gameweek ahead. Each of the top four supply us with a player apiece this time out as we crunch the numbers to determine whether there really is an alternative to a certain Uruguayan for the armband:

            Aguero > Rooney last week, seemed like a good idea at the time. Risky obviously but I've changed my plans so I'm bringing him straight back. Cost me 0.5 that ffs!

              Oh I see.

              I can see the reason behind it, Rooney was the one I wanted but couldn't get without destroying my team balance.

                I could still keep him but aguero will rise too much so I may as well do it now.

            Dzsudzsák was very good for PSV Eindhoven a couple of years ago - 16 goals and 12 assists in 2010-11. Think he lost his way a bit at Anzhi and then Dynamo Moscow.

        A. Keep Barkley (save transfer, nice upcoming fixtures, rotation risk)
        or
        B. Barkley>Bannan (money for Gerrard>Hazard, plays for a team that doesn't score many)
        or
        C. Barkley>Shelvey (nice shortterm fixtures, kneejerk, michu about to return)

        Cheers
