Our Gameweek regular for members is rolled out once again ahead of tomorrow’s deadline. Liverpool’s trip to West Brom sees Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge place highly in the Captain Poll, whilst United’s visit to Stoke also supplies our analysis with a couple of popular contenders. Arsenal’s home game against Palace also comes into the reckoning, whilst we also unmask this week’s “Captain Unsensible” and cite the statistics to back up our bold punt:

    Replacement for Aguero... Rooney or RVP Thoughts? Have enough in the bank for either. Uncertain whether Rooney will play deeper or on the wings. RVP back to full fitness I assume. Already have United coverage in Mata.

          Dzeko is the best replacement for Aguero.

          - Cheap (£6.8m)
          - In a team scoring for fun (4 per game)
          - Great fixtures (until blank)

          Even if he is rested he will come on and score in last 20 mins.

          Hi all, couple of questions. Much appreciated if any help.

          1) Will Aguero fall today? Is quite far off on TotalFPL but due to timezones I will be asleep when price changes occur.
          2) Will Fabio change to Cardiff before the deadline? Want to bring in RVP/Rooney for Aguero but already have Mata, Januzaj and Fabio.
          3) What is the best way for me to bring in RVP into my team? Team is:

          Adrian Marshall
          Coleman Terry Ward Fabio Bardsley
          Hazard Lallana Januzaj Johnson Mata
          Adebayor Aguero Suarez

          0.3 in bank and 1FT. Could do Ade > JRod and Ag > RVP. The following week do Lallana/Johnson to Eriksen? Or should I sell Terry...? Will leave me with 5.4 for a defender which could buy me someone of decent quality but its hard letting go of Terry.

          4) Why was I so stupid and did not captain Suarez and bench Adrian last GW??

          Is it worth a hit to get DF this week?

          1: Play this DF

          Marshall / Mannone
          Sagna - Kosc - Ward (Coleman, Chester)

          2: -4pts hit .. Sell Chester or Coleman (bought 6.5m) for
          a) Evans
          b) Fonte
          c) Demel

            Should've probably sold Coleman weeks ago if you got at 6.5, but anyways hindsight notwithstanding maybe just play Ward and no hit

          AJ - Mata - Hazard - Eriksen
          Sturridge - Suarez - Aguero

          A) Risk no City coverage, Aguero -> Rooney
          B) Aguero -> Dzeko
          C) Other transfers?

            I'm not yet confident how Rooney will be used. B looks good.
