GW28 Chip Poll

Captain Sensible

13 August 2021 2001 comments

avfc82

Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers face a number of selection dilemmas as they put the finishing touches to their squads ahead of tonight’s 18:30 BST deadline, one of which, of course, concerns who to captain.

While one, all-too-familiar name leaps out as the leading candidate for the armband this week, there are other FPL assets whose cases deserve examining.

First, we will assess the fallout of the Gameweek 1 captain poll, then analyse the leading candidates and Rate My Team (RMT) ratings ahead of this evening’s curtain-raiser in Brentford.

THE CAPTAIN POLL

As you can see from the current results, Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) is the runaway leader of the Gameweek 1 captain poll. The Egyptian midfielder has accumulated 61.95% of total votes from our users at the time of writing.

Only one other player has garnered more than 10% of votes at this stage, with Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes (£12.0m) currently in second place, backed by 14.68% of users.

There is also a surprise inclusion, as Ivan Toney (£6.5m) occupies third place with 4.62% of votes, with Sadio Mané (£12.0m) and Kai Havertz (£8.5m) just behind the Brentford forward.

Any helps? Last starting XI spots.

A) Benrahma, Barnes (3-5-2)
B) Mahrez, White (4-4-2)

A would mean no City.
B) No Barnes or Benrahma.

    Tella is the unknown, but has been in my team for weeks. Would delete my account if I swapped him out, and he scored.
    Martinez + Tella -> 4.0 + Raph or Martinez + ESR -> 4.0 + Zaha bound to happen.
    
    Martinez - Sanchez
    TAA - Shaw - Coufal - Amartey - Tsimikas
    Salah - Bruno - Barnes - ESR - Tella

      Ings Antonio Toney
      
      Only real decision left are 10m to spend on GK and a def. Was Amartey and Martinez but have now moved to Alonso and Bachmann. Could still go safer with Schmeichel and Coufal.

        Great team, but I’d like my moneyz in my starting XI from GW2/3. You are in for some brainpain picking XI and making transfers 🙂
        Offers lots of options (but probably also some -4’s) moving forward

  I had something similar but I really do feel this Tsimikas / Amartey is a disaster waiting to happen.
  
  If they aren't playing and another of your defenders gets injured/out of favour then you're going to have to waste transfers to get rid of one of tsimi/amartey.

First time RMT this season 🙂

Bachmann
TAA - Shaw - Tsimikas
Salah - Son - Mahrez - Barnes - Raphina
Ings - Antonio

Foster - White - Coufal - Obafemi

I could downgrade White and upgrade Coufal to Cancelo.

Any ideas?

GW1 punt with 10m to spend on a GK and Def, will WC in GW4 and have sufficient options to bench Alonso/Coufal if needed

A) Schmeichel (WOL) and Coufal(new) or Targett (wat)
B) Bachmann (AVL) and Alonso (CPA)

    ESR likes to float wide (left and right) so Odegaard would likely be the 10 most weeks in that formation, with ESR competing with him as well as Saka, Pepe, Willian, Aubameyang, Martinelli, Nelson for 3 spots. Although it's more like ESR, Pepe and Saka competing for 2 positions (Auba and Laca competing for 1).

How are people feeling about Fernandes? I'm tempted to transfer him out to upgrade Toney to Vardy instead. Has he looked good in preseason?

Also, how come no-one seems to be selecting Saka?

I've just requested the Transfer Planner from the mods. How does this work? Do you receive a link to this in your email or something, or does it activate in the Members Area under our accounts?

Best option for opening 6 GWs? Already have Antonio and not sure whether I want two West Ham attackers.

A: Buendia, Watkins
B: Benrahma, Ings

  Are you worried about Mahrez and Greenwood... got both too, but surely transfers waiting to happen.

    No I’m cool with it we get transfers and I think they’re both great options for the 1st few weeks.

  Got a very similar no Bruno team (Gone Toney instead of Raph to start).
  
  Think its fine...Bruno will score points but doubt many will captain first few weeks and funds can be spread more evenly.

      Mainly to have a playing 4.5 mid, rather than a non-playing 4.5 fwd (443 vs 442)

If I'm not playing Amartey in GW1, is it worth having him? Or should I switch to someone like Omabamidele or Liveromento?

  Slim pickings mate. Any of the £4.0 will do. Presumably, you already have Tsimi (or have gone Jota for 3rd Pool slot)

  I wonder about Ayling as a bench option. He is a good choice, but he will take a Leeds spot. I think 2 Leeds attackers will be in most teams at some point soon. I think having Ayling on the bench restricts getting a 3rd Leeds player of choice, but maybe you choose Ayling anyway.
  The rest of the team has a nice balance.

    Cheers mate, just feel Ayling is one of the better 4.5,s and White and Veltman would mean double Ars/Bri defence which I don’t want

      He is a great 4.5 option. If Leeds can repeat last years performance they have a lot of value in most of their players.

  Watkins is an injury doubt.
  
  No Salah is high risk bit you have Mane. Prefer to see Salah in there esp as he is on pens etc.

    Mane I think will hit the ground running. only owned by 4.5% so could be a big differential. He's banged goals in pre-season and will be hungry to avenge what he sees as a poor season last year. I don't see it as that big a gamble but I can see why you'd say so.
