Captain Sensible – Gameweek 33

Up next this busy Friday evening, we dive into the Opta data with our usual pre-Gameweek members’ article assessing the main captaincy candidates for the upcoming round of fixtures.

To get underway, we check in with the Captain Poll contenders, then examine the Opta numbers and Rate My Team rankings before highlighting a differential or two to help advise on your armband dilemma.

    Keep Aguero or get Kane for a hit?

    1. Whazza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Kane

    2. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Keep Aguero

    3. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      I did it for free.

      Not sure it's worth a hit.
      I can't see him getting a haul.
      Hope I'm wrong though.

    4. Heavy Soul
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Leaning towards keeping

    5. Rococo
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      I did it for free.

      1. Rococo
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 25 days ago

        Probably not for a hit.

    6. Concrete
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Cheers all

  5. TSN

    ranocchia > ward or pieters?

    thx

  6. Whazza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Heaton: eve, MUN, pal
    Hennessey: LEI, DGW, BUR

    Worth a -4?

    1. Concrete
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      DGW fixtures would put me off a -4 I think

  7. Heavy Soul
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Howdy Lads. GTG? Bench order good?

    Jaku
    Walker, Valencia, Holgate
    Alli, Coutinho, Zaha, Siggy
    Aguero, Lukaku, Kane (C)

    (Foster, Holebas, Carroll, McAuley)
    Good luck all!

    1. Concrete
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Yea, good team that!

      1. Heavy Soul
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 25 days ago

        Cheers!

  8. manu4life99
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Valdes(ARS) of Jaku(stk)?

    1. Sotamendi84
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Jaku

  9. Konstaapeli
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Siggy to Coutinho or Zaha?

    1. Sotamendi84
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Tricky i would say zaha because of the extra game and the potential price benefit

    2. Heavy Soul
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Coutinho

  10. Sotamendi84
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Get rid of coutinho or eriksen to fund Kane?

    Kwnne filakia

    1. Heavy Soul
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Eriksen if you have Alli

    2. Sotamendi84
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Yes i do thanks

  11. Garfield1001
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Benching both Holebas and Valencia - who is the best 1st sub?

    1. Sotamendi84
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Valencia surely

  12. zeepeee
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Hey guys really need your help here!
    Thinking of transferring kane and holgate/pieters in for ibra and bdavies for -4
    Yay or nay

    Team would look like this.

    Grant
    Holgate Valencia Baines
    King Alli Siggy Eriksen Firmino
    Lukaku(C) Kane

    Heaton Yoshida Robertson Crouch

  13. Manani
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    still got WC, when to use?

    1. Carlton P
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Seriously? Completely depends on your team

    2. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Any time now is good. Just plans for DGWs

      1. Weasel Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 25 days ago

        Plan

  14. Dirty Harry
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Is Jagielka and Holgate overkill when on a WC.

    Burnley at home is tempting but no DGW is a concern as I'd be shipping Jags next week for Gibson/Barragan anyway

    1. Carlton P
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Holgate + Gibson

  15. Lizard Lips
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Looks like Ronka isn't bringing in Kane. Guess I sit on my hands this week and pray Barnes does something at Goodison Park :p

    1. Qubit
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Wouldnt be surprised if he doesn't.

    2. Carlton P
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      How late does he leave his transfers? Night before or closer to deadline?

  16. EDEN THE MAN
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Would u take a -4 hit for Gw35 or just hit the WC button instead of WC'ing in 36

    1. Kevinw82
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Just WC

    2. Good Times
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      -4 hit.... Depends Mainly on the moves

      1. EDEN THE MAN
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 25 days ago

        Would be

        Lukaku+T.Caroll to Kane+King

  17. Smoky Johnson
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Ibra + Bavies > Ward + Kane -4 ?

    1. Bingo
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      No way

    2. Sotamendi84
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      You will need ibra back no from me

  18. TheRealDog
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Davies to Bailly or Gibson for GW34 (three Spurs)? Already have Valdes.

    1. Good Times
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Gibson has better fixtures and you know he's gonna play 180 mins barring injury next week

      1. TheRealDog
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 25 days ago

        Agree. Bailly should be nailed though with Jones and Smalling out until mid-May. Thinking of spreading the risk but it's a difficult decision

  19. Good Times
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    On - 4 did three moves
    Costa>kane
    Siggy>coutinho
    Brunt> Jags
    Pickford Jaku
    Valencia verthongen Gibson jags Wilson
    Sanchez alli coutinho zaha King
    Kane(VC) ibra lukaku (C)
    0.0 itb all set?

  20. Lizard Lips
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    If I WC during GW35 (to field in GW36), can I play my BB in GW36 or are you not allowed to play a chip for your new WC team?

    1. Good Times
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Wildcard and chip can't be used together for same week

    2. Exeter Gently
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Only 1 per gw

    3. Lizard Lips
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Still can't get my head around it. The WC would be in 35 and playing the BB would be in 36, surely different weeks no?

  21. asquishypotato
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Very stuck on Aguero to Kane (-4)

    If I don't get Kane now I don't get him until wildcard 36.

    So the trade off is Southampton/city or Bournemouth/palace

    1. Qubit
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      I think Kane is important, certainly wouldn't want to be without until wk36. Next week maybe.

  22. Qubit
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Think this will be my WC team for this week:

    Hennessey, Pickford
    Alonso, Baines, Barragan, Yoshida, Ward
    Coutinho, Alli, Eriksen, Zaha, Ward-Prowse
    Kane, Lukaku, Ibra

  23. Kevinw82
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Play King or Llorente this week?

    1. Dr Kenneth Noisewater
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Throw in some fixtures when asking to save laziness.

      I'd go Llorente.

    2. robbieearle
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Llorente 7 days a week

  24. Dr Kenneth Noisewater
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Been in a hole for the last week - Kane is a starter tomorrow?

    On a side note, what was the stigma/superstition about early games?

    1. Netley Lucas
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Yep, irrational fear of cap fail so soon.

      1. Dr Kenneth Noisewater
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 25 days ago

        Irrational being the key adjective. Merci.

    2. Carlton P
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Who cares about FF, go get yourself some food and water

      1. Dr Kenneth Noisewater
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 25 days ago

        On a Friday night? Like there's anything better to do.

        1. Carlton P
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 25 days ago

          Surely your hungry/ thirsty?

  25. Syd.
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Leeds goal

    1-1

    Last kick of the ball

    1. F4L
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      ..............:( 🙁 🙁

  26. MiguelAngel
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Start
    A) Siggy
    B) Carroll

    1. robbieearle
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Hard but maybe one last chance for siggy

  27. TSN
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Stay with Ibra or -4 for Kane? thanks for the advice

  28. Dazzler365
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 25 days ago

    Heaton or Pickford?

    Siggy or Andy Carroll?

    1. TheRealDog
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Pickford and Siggy

      1. Dazzler365

  29. Hybrid.power
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    1. Heavy Soul
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 25 days ago

      Looks good

    2. Dazzler365
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
