Our Friday afternoon delve into the data arrives once again as the clock ticks down on tomorrow’s deadline. So far this week Luis Suarez leads the way in one of the most comprehensive Captain Polls yet – over 74% of the votes cast have gone the Uruguayan’s way ahead of Liverpool’s games against Cardiff and Sunderland. We analyse the leading contenders in this week’s Poll and assess whether there are any viable alternatives worth considering:

    I don't usually list my team on FFS but I've nothing to lose in my poor mid table position of 65k or thereabouts! At a cost of 8pts I reluctantly swapped Kolarov for Zabaleta (really preferred Kolarov but his game time is suspect) Lallana for Yaya (wanted Gerrard but my team balance would have suffered as I had Sterling and needed more funds to do a straight swap) and Ward for Rosenior (to get my final DGW player cheaply).

    My team is:
    Mannone
    Zabaleta Coleman Rosenior
    Yaya Silva Sterling Johnson
    Suarez Sturridge Lukaku

    Bench: Boruc Hazard Azpi Olsson (Norwich)
