Captains

Captain Poll – Gameweek 20

Our final festive Captain Poll, covering Gameweek 20’s armband options, has now launched with Manchester City’s Sergio Aguero currently leading the way.

The 18.2% owned striker, who returned from his four-match suspension last night away to Liverpool, appears to face a far easier fixture when Burnley visit the Etihad tomorrow.

No side has shipped more shots in the box away from home than the Clarets, who have also conceded 18 times on their travels. Meanwhile, Aguero boasts the fastest minutes per penalty are attempt rate among regular Premier League starter this term.

For those who are unable to afford the Argentine’s 12.8 price tag, we have included two other City assets for consideration.

Raheem Sterling’s (7.6) pair of assists against Hull City in Gameweek 18 served as a reminder of the 9.4% owned England winger’s potential, particularly against minnows. Two assists in his last five league matches means that the 8.9% owned Kevin De Bruyne (10.7) also offers the chance of a points haul for those backing him with the captaincy.

Arsenal’s Alexis Sanchez (11.9) is another vying for the summit when he travels to Bournemouth on Tuesday evening.

The Cherries have conceded 12 goals in their nine home matches and will need be wary of the Sanchez threat given that the 36.9% owned Chilean boasts nine goals away from home this season. In addition, he also offers considerable assist potential, considering that, on the road, only Christian Eriksen and Dimitri Payet can match his 25 chances created.

Mesut Ozil (9.2), who has two goals and as many assists in away matches, offers the most secure cheaper Gunners alternative as there is uncertainty as to whether Theo Walcott (7.7) will recover from a calf injury to be in contention.

Liverpool’s midfielders will also doubtless attract attention as they drop by the Stadium of Light to take on a Sunderland side still licking the wounds from a 4-1 hammering at Burnley.

Sadio Mane (9.4), who will be representing Senegal in the Africa Cup of Nations after his Gameweek 20 outing, and Adam Lallana (7.6), are the Reds’ top scoring players on the road and arguably the stand-out options for the armband among Jurgen Klopp’s charges.

This game is likely to come too soon for midfielder Philippe Coutinho as he boosts his fitness following an injury lay off, which could present 10.3% owned Divock Origi (6.9) with another chance to lead the line.

The young Belgian, who was rested from the first XI against Manchester City last night, has two goals and an assist on the road, while 12.5% owned Roberto Firmino (8.5) has also notched twice on his travels to further split the Liverpool vote.

Manchester United midfielders have shown more attacking intent of late but their 43% owned striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic (11.6) remains the main draw.

The big Swede, who has led our last two Captain Polls and has eight goals and an assist in his last eight league starts, is set to once again be a popular option, when Jose Mourinho’s men raid the London Stadium to take on West Ham in Gameweek 20.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan (8.9)’s “scorpion” flicked goal against Sunderland in Gameweek 18 and Paul Pogba (8.4)’s assist in the same fixture could ensure they also receive strong support, given that the Hammers have conceded 18 goals at home.

The Frenchman’s strike against Middlesbrough in Gameweek 19 further strengthens his cause. Pogba has now returned two goals and two assists in his last four, earning eight bonus points.

Chelsea’s visit to Spurs is likely to mute interest in their captaincy candidates such as striker Diego Costa (10.7) and Spurs schemer Christian Eriksen (8.6). The hosts have conceded just eight goals at White Hart Lane, and the Blues boast five clean sheets on the road.

With 39 goals shipped already this season, backing a forward who faces Hull City has proved a shrewd tactic, which is likely to garner votes for West Brom’s Salomon Rondon (6.7) when the Tigers visit the Hawthorns tomorrow.

The 8.4% owned Venezuelan, who was a substitute away to Southampton in Gameweek 19, has scored five of his seven goals at home, including a hat-trick against Swansea in Gameweek 16.

Given the poor quality of the visitors’ backline, we have also included Chris Brunt (5.0), who has a goal and three assists in his last three home outings, for consideration. Baggies midfielder Matt Phillips (5.6) is another to feature in the poll on the back of seven assists and four goals this term, one of each arrived against Southampton yesterday.

Swansea City’s perilously dire form continued at home to Bournemouth in Gameweek 19, when they shipped three goals and failed to score. The Welsh side next travel to Crystal Palace, which puts Eagles striker Christian Benteke (7.7) on the radar as a differential armband option, with eight goals scored already this campaign.

However, with the 9.7% owned Belgian missing his second penalty of the campaign, against Watford in Gameweek 18, he may find himself behind Yohan Cabaye (5.6) as the number one spot-kick taker. This was a duty the Frenchman held before the Belgian’s arrival.

Another alternative for the armband is Alvaro Negredo (6.4), for Middlesbrough’s home tie against a Leicester City outfit that has conceded 21 goals on the road. The 15.3% owned Spaniard is Boro’s top scorer with five goals and earned an assist at Old Trafford on Saturday.

We will be back to check in on progress in the poll when we deliver our usual pre-Gameweek “Captain Sensible” article tomorrow morning, offering an analysis of the results and the statistics behind the leading contenders.

      • 11 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Sky

      1. Syd.
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Thank you

  2. Professor Abel X
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Pedro and Willian to share the pitch going forward?

    1. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Looks like it

    2. Grand Thibauto
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Yep. Both in form, Pedro a much better fit for 343 and Willian arguably the better player overall.

    3. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Jonty seems to think it will be Pedro

    4. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Annoying. I wanted Pedro to enable Kobra

  3. Danstoke82
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Current team;

    Heaton
    Alonso Jones Ake McAuley Amat
    Sanchez Hazard Mane Lallana Phillips
    Ibra Costa Anichebe

    0FT and 0.5ITB as already did De Roon > Phillips

    Is it worth a -8 to get Kun for Burnley game and captain him?

    Mane + Ibra > 8.2MID + Kun? (-8)

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Yep

    2. Assisting the assister
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      I'd stick with Ibra while he's in top form. Should have been given a goal yesterday + an assist.

      1. Danstoke82
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Who should I ship Mane too then to do Costa > Aguero?

    3. Assisting the assister
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      If you're so set on Aguero stick with your original plan

    4. mojoindojo
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      No.

  4. Assisting the assister
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone know when Zaha joins up with Ivory Coast? Is he playing next week?

    Best replacement Phillips I suppose?

    1. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Plays gw20 and goes

    2. Assisting the assister
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Thanks hopefully get some points today and v Swansea. Should be playing for England. Great shame

  5. Mooster©️
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    A lot to think about now that Aguero is back.
    Whats your thought on getting him back for -8 for next gw?
    Team now:

    Foster(Jaku)
    Walker / Cedric / Alonso (Amat Smith)
    Sanchez / Lallana / Antonio / Phillips / Hazard
    Ibra / Costa (Anichebe)

    A)Hazard->De Roon + Cedric->Friend to get Aguero in for Anichebe? -8
    B)Cedric->Friend or other defender up to 6.8(who?)? 0
    C)Antonio->Pogba or other mf up to 8.6(who?)? 0
    D)Save FT to next GW

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Yep, best captain option by a mile

    2. Kun Tozser
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Not for a -8 imo

  6. The Polymath
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Heaton
    Alonso, Jones, Holebas
    Hazard, Sanchez, Eriksen, Lallana, Phillips
    Aguero (c), Ibra

    GTG for GW20?

    1. Danstoke82
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Great team! GTG!

    2. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Nice - would look at Holebas out after the FA Cup - but well balanced otherwise.

    3. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Great starting XI. Dread to think what the bench looks like

      1. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Bench: Pickford, Ake, Amat, Diomande

        Looking at replacing Pickford soon as Heaton backup.

        Amat and Diomande as bench fodder

    4. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Lol. Impossible team

      1. Business Cat
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        I have very nearly that exact team

    5. MTPockets
        7 years, 2 months ago

        yes

    6. makaveli123
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Just watched some extended highlights from the matches yesterday. Mediocre refereeing in many cases, especially from Pawson, Friend and Mason.

      1. Les Bleus
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Mason had a shocker

      2. diesel001
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Christmas fixtures hit the refs hard too

      3. Ógie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        World class refs are few and far between and the ones that are in that class could find themselves in China before long
        Time for the video refs to be introduced imo

        1. Paul Psychic Octopus
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          As a minimum, retrospective punishment for cheating, using video

    7. AFC49
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Any suggestions for this team? 1FT, 0.2 ITB

      Grant
      Alonso Cedric Pieters
      Sanchez Hazard Eriksen Phillips
      Ibra Costa Origi

      Heaton de Roon Holebas Kingsley

      1. La Roja
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Only issues is Origi, I have the same dilemma and considering Rondon

      2. diesel001
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Nice - I would reassess after the FA Cup. Look at Coutinho for Hazard for example and then Origi upgrade.

        1. diesel001
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Sanchez - Eriksen - Coutinho - Phillips
          Ibra - Costa - Lukaku

          would be very nice IMO. Probably would not have to touch that team for 8 to 10 weeks - just fiddle with the defence.

        2. AFC49
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Cedric to Brunt?

    8. MoeZe3bi
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Is origi>>Benteke worth a -4?
      I already have Zaha

    9. Speédy
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      dear poch and wenger,just dont bench eriksen and sanchez respectively

    10. Oggle22
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Which two are beat option?
      Ibra Costa Aguero

      1. Paul Psychic Octopus
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Ibra, Costa

        1. The Head-Ake
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Ibra and Costa

    11. Numb
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      No pressers for these next games?

    12. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Only 37% of the captain's poll voting for Aguero??? Talk about 63% of people in denial!! (from someone who isn't going to have Aguero this GW)

      1. Numb
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        You didn't see the game last night then?

        1. Now I'm Panicking
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          He wasn't playing Burnley at home with a game under his belt yesterday

          1. Junior ⚽
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            Heaton.

      2. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        I wonder if people don't realise that the captain poll is for a player you may not necessarily have ... you choose whoever you think is the best captain this week.

        Jonty usually mentions this at the top of the article, but didn't this time round.

        1. Ógie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          He must have realized he was wasting his breath

      3. Ógie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        I think most managers vote for a player that is in there team so there is a inbuilt bias to the poll

        1. FPL Virgin
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Snap! 😉

      4. Jafooli
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        I voted Capoue just to try and relieve some pressure each time I look at it.

      5. Egg noodle
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Aguero is the least value player this gameweek.
        Wave a magic wand and he will become the topscorer next week.

      6. MTPockets
          7 years, 2 months ago

          I captained Aguero yesterday for differential punt, but City pretty well contained to be fair.

        • Miro
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Even though he had a pretty long rest, isn't it risky to start him in 2 games in such quick succesion? ...

          Anyone else thinks Kalechi might start against Burnley?

      7. Daddy
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Is that the end of Phil Jones?

        1. JIM BOB
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          No

        2. Numb
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          The beginning. Smalling blew his chance.

        3. Paul Psychic Octopus
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          To quote Churchill, "This is not the beginning of the end - but it is perhaps the end of the beginning"

        4. denial
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          No he's still a good option

        5. The Hindu Monkey
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          What?

        6. Business Cat
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Phil Jones has no end...he's like a mobius strip

        7. Ógie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          On this logic do you also think that Michael Carricks days in the 1st team are also numbed?

          1. Daddy
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            I don't watch united

        8. Mr. Blonde
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Smalling is horrendous. Jones and rojos' spots to lose

        9. AA33
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          He is surely nailed. Mourinho simply rested him yesterday and Bailly is off to AFCON

      8. soup natsi
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Good afternoon and happy new year all

        Brunt in for Amat, for a hit. Yay or nay?

        1. JIM BOB
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Will he play 2 games in 3 days?

          1. soup natsi
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            Who will if he won't though?

        2. The Hindu Monkey
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Yes

      9. denial
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Who's buying Negredo?

        Origi out for Negredo -4?

        1. Numb
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          You mean the other way round I assume?

          1. denial
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            Origi transferred out for Negredo, yes

            1. Numb
              • 9 Years
              7 years, 2 months ago

              Oh.

      10. Alonso's Ball
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Foster (Robinson)
        Alonso, Friend, Ake, Holebas, Amat
        Sanch, Haz, Siggy, Phillips, Cap
        Ibra, Kane, Carroll

        I have an "always buy Kun" rule so I'm pretty set on Kane out (currently 0.1 off a straight swap). Assuming Kane doesn't rise tonight off the back of a brace, what is the enabler?

        A) Holebas -> Evans (fixtures)
        B) Carroll -> Barnes (enable a switch to 3-5-2 next week)
        C) Siggy to Snoddy (poor fixtures but I like him)
        D) Open to suggestion!

        Thanks and happy new year

        1. Kun Tozser
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          C or capoue to de Roon

        2. The Head-Ake
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Derade Caroll to Diomande/Barnes and Sggy to Lallana and get Kun in.

      11. Big Hippo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Winter Wildcard question. Is it really worth saving for double GWs? You can't use wildcard and bench boost/triple C in the same week so you'd have to wildcard the week before. A lot could go wrong in that time.

        Also, I want Aguero now.

        1. Now I'm Panicking
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Save WC unless your current team is an absolute disaster

        2. Weasel51
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          You use the wildcard the week before bench boost to fill your team full of DGWers

          1. Weasel51
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            Always my plan anyway

        3. stilicho
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          All depends on the state of your team, if major surgery is required now then it makes sense to use it now.

            Yeah just now. I think it all depends on who have the doubles and their fixtures around it. Good to see some comments about success stories using this strategy last year. Will hold onto it!

          It worked for me last year, had a good triple figure haul -though messed up with my TC later. I'd wait and see for Kun, at least for another game.

            Cheers. Only thing napgging me with Kun is that they're playing Burnley this week.

        I can achieve this (around £105m TV) - looks good on paper doesn't it?

        Grant - Valdes
        Alonso - Ake - Brunt - Holgate - Jones
        Sanchez - Coutinho - Eriksen - Phillips - De Roon
        Lukaku - Costa - Ibrahimovic

        1. Alonso's Ball
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Holgate and Jones are dodgy game time, and no Hazard or Aguero. I'm not a fan

          1. diesel001
            • 7 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            Holgate is bench fodder. Jones is pretty secure with Bailly gone and Rojo's penchant for dirty tackles.

        Hi all

        Any ideas on the next move?
        https://imgur.com/gallery/nBSUh

        Was thinking Rondon in for Origi and taking a punt on KdB for Haz. What dyu guys think?

        I'm 0.1 short of Phillips and Kun in for Origi and Haz... Too much celebrating last night to remember FPL !!

        Thanks!

        1. Egg noodle
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          You need Siggy out as a greater priority than Haz out.

          Origi Siggy > Phillips Benteke?

          1. Individual
            • 10 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            Hmm maybe, another option could be Lallana and Rondon in for Origi Siggy?

            Not completely convinced by palace yet!

          I'm wondering whether Origi will start against Sunderland. Firmino needs a rest IMO.

          1. Egg noodle
            • 14 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            Have Liverpool got any other fixtures between their next 2 PL games? If not then Firminos getting 12 days off.

              Good point.

              Plymouth FA Cup and Southampton League Cup. Don't know what kind of team Klopp will pick.

          2. Individual
            • 10 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            Yeah that's why I'm not sure, Liverpool coverage vs. sunderland looking pretty handy

            Also want city cover vs Burnley but who knows who will start, and then a wba player who is probably Rondon. Rest idk!

        3. Alonso's Ball
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Liverpool have crazy Jan fixtures

          1. Individual
            • 10 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            I could do Lallana and Rondon for Origi and Siggy

      19. Wild Rover

        Clearly Poch doesn't believe the Kane needing Dembele hype 😀

        welcome back to the team Kun

        let the doubters see the light with 17 points vs. Burnley. 🙂

        will origi start vs sunderland we think??

        1. Lawrø
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Probably

        2. Numb
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Probably. False 9 will not be needed in that game

        3. Alonso's Ball
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Yes

        4. Epic Fail
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Hopefully not, but probably.

        A) Ozil + Ibra

        B) Pogba + Aguero

        At the moment I have A with Sanchez Ozil double up

      23. MTPockets
          7 years, 2 months ago

          If Siggy's dropping tonight, need a Coutinho placeholder (have Lallana/Phillips):

          Pedro (tot), Sterling (BUR), Townsend (SWA)?

            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 13 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            None of them are nailed on, you might be better off with Siggy.

            1. MTPockets
                7 years, 2 months ago

                Price change will stuff up Cedric/Siggy -> Ake/Coutinho plan unfortunately. Thanks though.

              • 13 Years
              7 years, 2 months ago

              A slightly left field suggestion, but I reckon Ramirez (Mid) is going under the radar. Only 5.3, on all non-pen set pieces and surprisingly good stats.
