Our weekly pre-deadline Members article focuses on the armband issue, with just 16 teams to consider. Liverpool’s “SAS” are eclipsed by Emmanuel Adebayor in this week’s Captain Poll so far as Spurs welcome Cardiff to the Lane, whilst Chelsea’s trip to Fulham and Swansea’s home clash against Palace bring Eden Hazard and Wilfried Bony onto our radars. As always, we roll out a “Captain Unsensible” option and delve into the data for a weekend underdog:

    A'noon,

    I need Yaya and Zaba to drop by 0.3 combined (not each) for my transfers to work in gw30.

    Will they drop this much do we think?

      I don't think Wenger would trust Verm after such long absence to play left back. Probably Jenkinson right back with Sagna on the left. Another option for the left back position is Flamini, he used to play there at the past.

    Have a spare transfer to use this week, the other one will be saved for GW29. My defence looks like this right now:

    Mannone, Adrian
    Baines, Azpilicueta, Koscielny, M.Olsson, Ward.

    I am considering the following options:
    A) Mannone -> Cech, get Bassong next week for Koscielny
    B) Koscielny -> Ivanovic, get Ruddy next week for Mannone

    Which one would you prefer? It may be worth noting that I will wildcard in GW31. Open to any suggestions.
