We roll out the next instalment of our weekly article for Members tonight, offering an in-depth statistical analysis of the main captaincy contenders for the set of fixtures ahead. With Luis Suarez topping the Captain Poll, we assess the Everton defence ahead of the Anfield Merseyside derby. We also dig deep into the data of Eden Hazard and Samuel Eto’o ahead of the home game against West Ham, whilst Sergio Aguero and Wayne Rooney’s prospects are also discussed, with the latter now back in full training ahead of Cardiff’s visit on Tuesday evening:

    I finally overtook my ML rival this gameweek, and am now 10 points clear.

    He WILL be captaining Suarez this gameweek.

    Do I play it safe, and stick with Suarez myself?

    Or go for Hazard (who he doesn't have at all), and hope Suarez doesn't hit a 15-pointer...

      if he doesnt have hazard captain him could make up more differential but it will suck if he gets hazard in this week

    @Parm

    swapping Vlaar down to Bruce allows me to keep Puncheon as 5th mid. What do you reckon?

    Or get AJ and say Zaha?

      so I'm left with Brady, Livermore, Ravel, Noone or someone of that ilk

    Still unsure about this whole Cabaye thing...

    Newcastle and PSG have agreed terms, correct? But that doesn't mean that Cabaye won't play tomorrow. I think Alan Pardew already knew that Cabaye would be leaving when he selected him in the squad, so is there a chance that he may play tomorrow?
