The final Captain Poll of the season is now up and taking your votes on the front page. Although it’s upsetting to mark the passing of our Fantasy seasons, we nonetheless have to gather our thoughts and consider this final gameweek with care. Hopefully there’s plenty of us still in sight of mini-league glory, Chris McGurn sitting on top of the Fantasy Premier League, will certainly be deliberating every decision as looks to close in on the overall crown.

The armband looks set to be more critical than ever but, in a gameweek that’s likely to be riddled with second string players as rest and rotation bite hard, the decision looks a tough one.

Tottenham’s Rafael Van der Vaart is an early contender at home to hapless Birmingham but the Dutchman’s injury at Anfield has placed doubts over his start on Sunday. Charlie N’Zogbia is another leading candidate – his explosive form threatens to drag Wigan clear or relegation, but a trip to the Britannia is hardly the welcoming venue for the Latic’s latest bid for survival. Dimitar Berbatov is the early poll leader – the silky Bulgarian looks in line for a start when Blackpool’s wayward defence arrive at Old Trafford. Can “Uncle Bulgaria” fetch the goals that will snatch the Golden Boot and turn the tide for opportunist Fantasy Managers?

Cast your vote on the front page and use this thread to discuss you early thoughts on the skipper situation.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Evening gents.
    40 pt lead over rival with Hart and Huth to play tomorrow.
    Rival has no players left this GW.

    Has anyone had or know of a 40+ lead being eradicated on the final day?

      very possible. campbell, adam, nzog, ohara, fletcher, doyle all capable of bringing in huge scores. add brum and blackburn players into the mix too.

      the right/lucky captain choice could even make 30 odd points.

      but in other news, I wouldn't worry too much 😉

      The utd thing is mainly bitterness, if you think about how good utd have been and for how long they are in the opponenets penalty box so much they get more penaltys and their opponenets are rarely in theirs, they move the ball around faster and better than other teams and hence draw more fouls.

      I was however aghast at how rat face avoided red cards vs Stoke and WBA.

      Barca do get favoured, it's beyod ridiculous.

      I will for the first time in my life be cheering on Utd, and that says a lot about Barca.

            For starters it's not him being accused, it's Porto. There have been absolutely no allegations made involving Mourinho.

            "Clearly Mourinho has nothing to do with it. Just benefited indirectly"

              Marcotti , you or I have no idea if Mourinho is involved. So denying it is farcical at this stage. He was however at the club running the show.

              It is also extremely ironic given his comments about corruption, Unicef and Barcelona.

    The last week of the season is like the finale of a James Bond film where there are big explosions but we already know who's won and there's no sense of mystery anymore. I much prefer the beginning where it's full of mystery and intrigue and anything could happen...

    Not sure transferring in Berba with intention of captaining him is a good idea unless you're chasing and are forced to look for a big payoff. SAF will be focused on the CL and if Rooney or Chicha are injured in training or during the CL game, SAF needs Berba to come in. If Berba is injured during the Blackpool game, this contingency plan is gone. I would never bet on SAF fielding any specific lineup. No one can predict this decisions.

That berbaflop week when he scored 5 goals in the gw week put me 50 points behind my rivals which I've managed to get down to 25 but am no unlikely to claw it back.
