Manchester City are set to be at the heart of the latest captaincy debate this week, but it shall remain a far from simple discussion.

You can now vote in the Gameweek 5 captain poll and can watch the video below or on our YouTube channel.

The fact big hitters Tottenham and Liverpool are set to do battle at Wembley Stadium in the Saturday lunch-time kick-off should curtail interest in their best players.

Mohamed Salah (£13.0m) and Harry Kane (£12.5m) are typically important figures in the captaincy conversation but may suffer from facing each other’s clubs this weekend.

That brings us back to Man City and their appealing home fixture against Fulham, a side that has averaged 2.25 goals conceded per match so far in 2018/19.

Conversely, the defending champions have found the net eight times in their first two home matches.

However, the start of the Champions League on the following Wednesday could potentially complicate the team selection for Pep Guardiola.

Sergio Aguero (£11.3m) will likely be the standout candidate from the poll but at this point we don’t have any guarantees that he will definitely start against Fulham – although he tends to be favoured at home.

David Silva (£8.5m) may receive some attention as the more reliable starter with Kevin de Bruyne (£9.7m) still out for some time.

Benjamin Mendy (£6.4m) should also be considered by some as he looks undroppable on current form.

Make sure you let us know who you’re going to hand the armband to by using our poll below, or on the sidebar.

    Was going to wildcard this week but ultimately decided against it. Got 2.6 million in the bank and just a solo transfer. I'm undecided which way to go with it.

    (A) IN Dilva OUT Jota

    (B) IN Vardy OUT Zaha

    Also have King and Arnie as strikers. Currently sweating on the Zaha injury and price drop.

        This is not true imo. I think he's the absolute nailed on first player on any managers team sheet

        Cons: £13m

        Pros:

        Captain choice every week

        Currently heading for another 300 pointer and expected goals and assists are v good

        Set and forget player: no need a waste one single transfer on him all season, while other managers are playing hokey cokey, using their FTs with the spare funds trying to gain ground against an exceptional player

        Basically the only con isn't even a con because he represents fine value at £13m

          Hazard wont even be close to his points come the end of the season. Historically Hazard is a nightmare to own. I think he's massively over achieving this year and he won't keep that rate up. The question is can you make the difference up with the extra cash? Which at the moment am not sure ..

            This is nonsense. Hazard is not over performing by any means, if anything he has underperformed fpl wise because of defensive managers and poor strikers. He had a great World Cup and looks better than ever.
            Playing for an attacking manager for once, he can easily compete with Salah this year.

              You think Hazard is capable of having a 30+ goal season? He's played with very good Strikers and he's never ripped up a full season with them. He's never been fantasy football gold.

      Also don't fancy double Chelsea defense. Ederson probably a better bet.

      Pogba isn's really a good option, DSilva a better bet.

      Trippier is great, but guaranteed to rotate quite a few games with the way Pochettino manages his squad...

      Would not get rid of Pedro either...

      Yeah I would say safe to keep the transfer and then you can fix a lot with 2 FT next week or a -4 reshuffle.

      Don't lose Salah. It's such an unnecessary waste of a transfer the achieves little but opening up more opportunities to waste more transfers

      Just Zaha to Mitro IMO. saves you the -4, and walcott might start. Then switch walcott for Richarlison

    Morning all

    Wildcard active due to ridiculous injury list and also the need to get Alonso in.

    Who are the 2 best £4.5m GKs to get in? Don’t need to rotate necessarily.

    At the moment I’m on Foster/Patricio.

          Fair enough.
          I Think Palace are okay when Tomkins is back and decent fixtures.
          Fab is just Getting those saves and WH has to improve at some point. When pickinh keepers on a WC, I’m guessing you are picking them for a very long term. Fab could become a good option.
          Good luck either way 🙂

    at 4.7 surely he is amazing value or am i missing something?

    Salah is going to punish sellers over the next month, IMO.

    All the stats are there. XG, XBuild up play, shots in the box, area of shots, average position etc.

    He hasn't been at his brilliant best but has 4 returns in 4.

    His next 3 fixutres are Spurs, Saints, Chelsea.
    Spurs play right into Liverpool's hands.
    Saints are pretty awful.
    Chelsea are conceding clear cut chances.

    Fair dos to anyone who sells and does well, but don't be surprised if Salah hauls over the next few weeks.

    It's only a matter of time.

      He's on course for another 300 pointer.

      A player you can just set and completely disregard for the season is a gift from the gods when a significant number of managers choose the other route

      I'm not sure why Salah/no Salah is even a conversation

          Salah has the stats and a previous 300 point season to back it up. I think we can point to fairly obvious reasons Holebas won't rack up 300 points so it seems a bit of a silly comparison!

      It all depends on how well people redistribute those points. But I am also still firmly in the Keep Salah corner. His expected points projections for the next 5 is still much higher than any other midfielder.

      Depends on the size of his hauls and what selling him has allowed managers to do I guess. Other than the Southampton game I don't think many will be considering him for captain (rightly or wrongly) in the next 4 and the week he plays Southampton Man City play Cardiff so there are alternatives.

      He'd need to get some huge scores for it to be really damaging - he's perfectly capable but if you're ever going to sell him then it's a good time to do it.

      Currently debating selling him for David Silva and using the funds to change Peltier to Alonso (or something else, haven't thought it through properly yet)

      Only other route to David Silva would involve selling Aubameyang which is another strong possibility as he's been a bit weak so far but still wavering.

      He will probably keep getting returns of ONLY 9 or 10 points to keep the sellers happy. Can see a 20pointer mixed in there over the next 4/5 games though just as no one expects it

      One problem with Salah, is that he can be hard to fit back in, without a wildcard.
