Captain Sensible – Gameweek 17

2,297 Comments

Yes, we know this week’s battle for the armband is done and dusted. With 86% of the votes cast, Luis Suarez is the undisputable favourite as Liverpool prepare for the visit of Cardiff on Saturday. The Uruguayan is hunting his fifth successive double-figure haul at Anfield and it’ll be a brave, or perhaps desperate, Fantasy manager who goes against the grain. Once again, our midweek regular for members sifts through the statistics to ascertain whether there really is anyone else worth considering:

      Lampard isn't dropped. He played last night.

      Baines is nearly fit again
      Rooney has a minor knock

      Most importantly, the World Cup is 6 months away

      Do you work for the daily mail?

    Buried on last page, reposting:

    When does the PlayOn picks article get posted? Also anyone going for the Christmas 1,000 guaranteed competition? Any good picks? For me Silva looks a bargain, even if he gets a yellows suspension you're still getting 2 games into the Man City offense for a tiny price.

    So Smarty Pants says the % of active players is around 45%. A good test of this is Suarez ownership is 46% now and given no one owned him on day 1 this makes sense. Some of those 46% will be dead teams but not too many. So in that context when you see Rooney at 20%, Lukaku at 33% and Negredo at 10% we start to see where the differentials lie.
