With a pair of fixtures on the horizon for Man City, Everton, Palace and Sunderland, the double Gameweek sides dominate our thoughts for the armband. All but one (Luis Suarez) of the top 10 in this week’s Captain Poll plays twice – Romelu Lukaku leads the way, with a quartet of City players close behind:

    This is a tough one

    Defence is

    Coleman Ward Terry (doubt) Burner (doubt) Chester (blank)

    Do I...

    A. Stick and play Terry
    B. Terry > Baines (-4)
    C. Burner > Stones (-4)

    Aguero : Expected Game time (80mins & 80mins if even) Expected points (2-3 goals or 2 goals and 1 assist & at least 2 bonus points (1 per game) - Approx 12/13 points: Captaincy 24/26 points)
    Pros: Goal machine, will be keen to catch up on goals his missed out during his injury spell, very effective against big teams i.e. Liverpool, Liverpool weak defence and Home game against dejected Sunderland team could see massive haul
    Cons: Probability of playing against Liverpool is high but perhaps given sometime on the bench against Sunderland to give gametime to Dzeko/Negredo. Only back from injury Pellegrini will be reluctant to give big game time.

    Baines: Expected Game time (90 mins & 90mins) Expected points (At least one clean sheet, At least one assist or one goal; 2 bonus points (1 per game) - Approx 13/14 points: Captaincy 26/28 points)
    Pros: Definite game time, reliable, Sunderland and Crystal Palace, will mop up bonus points if clean sheets are maintained
    Cons: Defender; could very well end up with a 4 points hall

    Lukaku: Expected Game time (90mins & 90mins) Expected points (2/3 goals and or 2 goals and an assist & at least 2 bonus points (1 per game) - Approx 12/13 points: Captaincy 24/26 points) i.e. same as Aguero
    Pros: Explosive, target man, Sunderland and Crystal palace games should see plenty of chances
    Cons: Naismith starting to shine - could take Lukaku out of spotlight, Can often be very quiet and flop for 2/3 games

    Disclaimer: This information is only my opinion and could very well be completely wrong - In writing this I think I've convinced myself into captaining Baines for the differential and reliability. Lukaku can too often be the disappearing man in games and Aguero is only back from injury.
    In my opinion Baines is the best option followed by Aguero then Lukaku (and possibly coleman or maybe even Mirallas/Yaya Toure)

    None the less 6 players you want in your team this gameweek are: Aguero, Yaya Toure, Baines, Mirallas, Lukaku and one other from Coleman Nasri, Silva.
    Having Sunderland players this week seems like madness, Crystal palace players are a maybe if on budget.

            I haven't bought anyone yet - you make huge statements you justify your decision not to get him. He will definitely play against Liverpool and however long it is he is effective enough to get at least one goal in that game; if he's deemed worthy to play against Liverpool which realistically he will be then he will get game time against Sunderland.
            I'll be looking for you at the end of the DGW to see what you have to say about him then - even if he doesn't score/assist he will play for more than 90 mins.

    I have sold Hazard for Eriksen on the assumption he is going to miss 2 -3 games. I still have Mata and Noone and want Aguero in for Sturridge. Have 1 more FT so looking at -4 hit this week.

    My plan is to now keep Mata in anticipation for his juicy fixtures coming up and sell Noone for Puncheon, DGW and a stick-on 1st sub for the rest of the season. I also have Bruce on my bench and really not wanting to get caught short with non-playing subs.

    Would leave me with

    Boruc
    Distin Kompany Ivan (flanagan bruce)
    Eriksen Silva Snodgrass Puncheon (Mata)
    Aguero Suarez Lukaku

    PS I'd rather have Aguero than Yaya as my 3rd Man City player... just out of pure stubborness.
