In the first instalment of a new, weekly article for members, we conduct some in-depth statistical analysis into one of the most crucial aspects in any given Gameweek – just who we entrust with the Fantasy armband. This week the options are plentiful – Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham all feature at home, City travel to basement-dwellers Sunderland, while a couple of Belgians are also in the running as clear captain contenders. With an array of talent on show, just who is “Captain Sensible”?

    Is Bacuna an option in midfield?

    I'm looking for a 5.5 or less MF and with Villa's good run of fixtures and Tekkers up top, he could return nicely on 4.6.

      As long as he isn't shunted to a full back position, he certainly is.

      Nice looking team- I have similar dilemma particularly as I think the midfield is where the biggest points will be this weekend. Toying with Suarez or Ozil atm

    Re posted as i would like some feedback. I've gotten mix responses on this over the week. After Ramsey netted again vs Dortmund, is it time to bring him in? It will cost me a -4 though, a direct swap from Paulinho to Ramsey. Ramsey looks to rise soon whilst Paulinho looks to drop soon.

          See I was plannig on Giroud & MIchu to Aguero & Ramsey for a hit last week but didn't do it (yay). Then I left Michu drop so couldn't afford it anymore. So so far with 2FT I've gone

          Michu > Januzaj
          Giroud > Aguero

          Leaves 2.0 to do Brady to Ramsey tonight. I'll have to wait on news about GJ first today alright though. It also means I've nothing to sort out my defence but i'm hoping Ozil > Walcott will help sort that.

      Strong bench. Similarly I have Barkley (cry), JWP (HUL), Mertisacker (mun). It wouldn't bother me too much if Silva and Hazard get no minutes as I have faith in my subs.

    Hello there! I just became a member, finally! I have tried to fix my team over the last coupple of weeks, but with a low teamvalue its not easy.

    My team is

    Migs - Harper
    Coleman - Fonte - Rangel - Mbiwa - Ben Turner
    Oscar - Øzil - Ramsey - Morrison - JWP
    Rooney - Suarez (C) - Giroud

    Bank: 1.6m

    I have used my free transfer allready this week, but want to get rid of Giroud. Is it worth to swap him out for eiter Lukaku or Benteke (-4)? Or should i wait for gw 12 and do -4 to get Aguero in?
