Our third Members article of the week takes the usual look at the Captaincy options ahead of tomorrow’s deadline. We analyse the stats of Robin Van Persie, Luis Suarez and Eden Hazard –the top three in this week’s Captain Poll – and also assess a couple of in-form alternatives, as well as rolling out our usual “Unsensible” armband alternative, for those willing to roll the dice:

        Wouldn't be confident going for Yoshida, especially with Pochettino saying Lovren is expected back earlier than anticipated.

    Current Team:

    Boruc (Davis)
    Mert Coleman Ward (Turner Chester)
    Hazard Mata Cazorla Sissoko (Mutch)
    RVP Suarez Sturridge

    What I'm considering for this week:
    1) Mert to Ivanovic
    2) Mert to Kompany
    3) Save FT

    Thoughts?

    Part of a chat with wingsfan what are your thoughts???

    with so many great options the captain choice is pivotal

    how many of us will actually want our players to fail for example if i captain rvp and my rival captains hazard ill be wanting hazard to play badly....

    also we will have the worry of hoping 5 or 6 players dont to do well to vindicate our choice... and all be nervous until 6 pm sunday.
