Captain Sensible – Gameweek 16

We roll out the next instalment of our weekly article for Members this evening, offering an in-depth statistical analysis of the main captaincy contenders for the set of fixtures ahead. This week, more than most, getting the armband call correct looks crucial – given that all of our featured five have acquired at least 12% of the votes cast in the Gameweek 16 Captain Poll, opinion looks split right across the board. Time to delve into the data, then…

            I sometimes watch it late at night. Only when I've had a good FF week though, I wouldn't watch it otherwise, I wouldn't want to murder two bananas. πŸ˜€

      Some saying the risks are being overplayed, he's certainly looking less secure this evening for a start against palace.

      Tough. Ravel 100% has to be played, you could flip a coin (or several coins) for the others. I say bench Williams and Arnie, seeing as WBA blanked last game, where they were at home as well (so it looks good for Burner), and I don't fancy Stoke to score.
