Captain Sensible – Gameweek 17

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:

          He was later but yes, just as bad. I'm at a loss to know who we should get in. I'd say bring in someone young-ish and let him develop the squad but there's no point as Levy will just sack him to protect himself. If they want instant success, bring in someone like Capello and give him a tonne of cash (yes, more than the £100m that was re-invested - this was not new money and our net spend is virtually £0) but they won't do that either.

          Oh forget it, just bring Harry back. At least it was exciting.
