With six teams set for a pair of fixtures apiece in the upcoming Gameweek, our Captain Sensible article takes a different angle this Friday afternoon. We focus mainly on those sides with two matches to play and hope to emulate our previous article on double Gameweek 34, where Jason Puncheon’s underlying stats were amongst the best around prior to his 23-point haul:

    Leading ML, Rival has Yaya. Which one would you pick?

    A) Aguero + Mutch + Demi (captain Aguero)
    B) Dzeko + Yaya + Coleman (captain Yaya)

    First to 5 wins!

      Wait, Freak. You clearly need Yaya, but why captain him? Take a hit or two, get Aguero too, then captain him. Boom. I just gave you your cake. Now go ahead and eat it. No silverware? Sorry, figure out a way...use your hands if needed.

    I feel Lukaku could deliver in a big game!

    I found something from SkySportsAmy (a tweet, no idea who she is) that he injured it in training on MONDAY and that he's out for the hull game. Any others I missed?

        BBC haven't mentioned the Hull match as far as I can tell.we all know he's a major doubt for Sunderland but there's suggestions he's out for Hull too, which would be a huge game-changer

    Can keep RVP but don't want to risk it just yet.

    Team is below and looking for opinions on my moves. Caught up a 60 point deficit in 4 weeks or so and am now leading by 2 points!

    Adrian
    Coleman Azpi Chester Ward Baker
    Ramsey Eriksen Yaya Mata (vc) Delph
    Rooney Aguero (C) Suarez

    Thinking of doing:
    Adrian > DDG and
    Coleman > Demi or Ward > Kolarov

    All for -4. Can only afford one of the above transfers. Everton have City this week and a relegation battler in Hull. Palace have Liverpool and relegation battlers Fulham. Thoughts? Other options?

      No United defenders are nailed on but he might be the most nailed on.
