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.

Once again, our midweek regular for members sifts through the statistics to ascertain whether there really is anyone else worth considering:

        as far as the media is concerned, he is injured. doubt he's actually injured. this is just like when pointless internationals come about and Fergie's players are always injured.
