Our third Members article of the week takes a look at the main Captaincy contenders on option. With Liverpool welcoming Swansea to Anfield, Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge are big armband favourites for Sunday’s showdown, whilst City’s home clash with Stoke has Edin Dzeko on Fantasy radars. Robin van Persie and Emmanuel Adebayor are also in contention for the captaincy ahead of trips to Palace and Norwich, whilst we also offer up our weekly alternative “Captain Unsensible” option for those on the lookout for a punt:
-
Coupla questions!
1. Start Coleman (away to Chelsea) or Adam Johnson (away to Sunderland)?
2. Captain Sturridge over Suarez?
Ta!Open Controls-

I wish Adam Johnson was playing against Sunderland..

for all the SAS ponderers, rember the rule. Dont pic a C and VC from the same game.......Especially in England in the winter.

Coleman, Mertesacker, Davies
Hazard(vc), Cazorla, Mata,Sterling
Van Persie, Sturridge(c), Adebayor
Subs: Marshall; Johnson, Ward, Bertrand ... FT
My lot. Any views? 🙂Open Controls-

Thank you, Sir! 🙂

Johnson!! Bench Davies for Ward Doos.
Open Controls-
Errr ... Davies is at Cardiff ...
Open Controls-
:). I think Cardiff are as Likely to score as Utd this weekend, but I rate a Pulis defence much higher than Hull, Chester isn't back yet!

Not today, thank you. 🙂

Well Dzeko is now a tempting captain.....strongest attack vs weakest defence, but captaining Hazard in GW25 paid off very very very handsomely, can I push my luck again. The only other time I haven't captained Suarez being GW16 and losing 22 extra points.
Open Controls -
Anyone considering Silva -> Oscar for 3 weeks? He has the most potential of the GW29 options I think.
Open Controls -
Scout picks prediction :
-------------------Adrian--------------
---Kompany---Mert---Ivanovic--
Toure--Cazorla--Hazard--Mata
---Dzeko----Suarez--Sturridge
Burner----Sterling-----BerahinoOpen Controls-
They never pick 2 players in same position from the same team. Expect one of Sturridge Suarez to disappear.
GK - Could be Marshall/Foster.
DF - Looks right.
MF - One of them out for Gerrard or Sterling. Knowing scout picks it'll be Sterling as they like cheap options.
ST - Sturridge/Suarez out RVP in.Open Controls -
-
Wrong

Moyes said nothing about Evans I suppose, or I'd have seen it in the tweets. Sad face.
Open Controls-
It's nice that you're following his recovery altruistically.
Open Controls-
-
That sounds alarming. But perhaps you could take special care to keep it from pens and fires and the like, and this could be a good thing. The idea could perhaps be extended to PL players.
I think this idea has legs.Open Controls-
-
I would say "I'll get you for this," but legless it seems such a hollow threat.
Open Controls-
-
When they do it, it's funny, sure. Without an audience it loses its motivational edge, though. Like the Bardsley to Olsson transfer I'm about to do. Distinctly uninspiring but there you have it.

Breadbin we have almost exactly the same score 🙂

Alive i hope, Soldado's performance in Europa only strengths his chances of being patched up.
Open Controls-
I may do sort of sideways thing and bring him in and Lallana and sell JRod and AJ.

this imo
Open Controls

really? i got that decision to make and thinkin of keepin giroud one more week atleast
Open Controls-
-
Hehe I'd get rid of Giroud sharpish. His mental state was no good before when he was settled in life, with his family issue his focus will hardly be any better.
Kompany's House, what a username 🙂Open Controls

-
I'd rather have Jrod than Ade with his fitness a concern. I also wonder how long his form will continue.
Evs would you rather get Mata or Gerrard in? 2ft, My gut says Gerrard.Open Controls

-
Is Benteke to Adebayor the best move here?
Adrian
Azpi, Shaw, Demel
Hazard, Mata, Yaya, Noone
RvP, Suarez (c), Benteke
Mannone, Puncheon, MOlsson, Ward
2 FTs, 1.3 in bank. Only want to use 1 transfer and can't afford Benteke to SturridgeOpen Controls-
Probably. Although ... you might consider Crouch.
Open Controls -
No lallana or lambert?
Open Controls -
-
but with GW29 in mind there's not many options
Open Controls
-
-
-
Suarez or Sturridge as captain? Or should i flip a coin? Anyone got any arguments or pro's and con's to either option? I suppose if you have both the swing in points will not be a huge number.
Everytime i have not captained Suarez i have needed to hide behind the couch. Surely he is due?Open Controls-
No such thing as due. I'm going Suarez because I think he'll score more points than Sturridge.
Open Controls -
How many times has this been asked this week? 😛
Sturridge imo as he's playing more central and more in form.Open Controls
-
-
is adebayor going to play?
Open Controls -
-
If you have no other pressing 28/29 matters then yes!

Sorry if this has been asked already (possibly a hundred times), but does anybody know for sure whether or not we're going to be awarded 2 free transfers before GW29? I thought I read that on here a week ago. Cheers!

2FTs, 2.2 million ITB
Januzaj ➡
a) Punch
b) Noone
Tempted to go Noone to free some cash for the City splurge in GW31 and allows me the chance to monitor Ince and Punch for one more week with a view to swapping Silva for one. Punch is the more solid citizen move.

Kolarov or clichy to start aginst stoke?
Open Controls-
Clichy played 90 minutes midweek, make of that what you will.
I'm hoping Kolarov, and secretly confident of it..Open Controls
-
Should i do now kolarov------> ivanovic ?
Open Controls-
Why would you do it this week when Kolarov is at home to Stoke and Chelsea are playing Everton?
Next week this would be a good transfer but not this week.Open Controls

Or give a chance kolarov this gw? And next gw to iva?
