Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers are advised to target assets who play twice in Double Gameweek 36 when looking for their next captain.

Mohamed Salah (£13.3m) and Kevin De Bruyne (£11.9m) have emerged as the two outstanding candidates, but are there any outsiders who are perhaps being overlooked?

First, we will assess the fallout of the captain poll, before then analysing the best options, Rate My Team (RMT) and the Premier Fantasy Tools ratings ahead of Saturday’s 13:30 BST deadline.

THE CAPTAIN POLL

As expected, Mohamed Salah and Kevin De Bruyne are leading the captaincy poll ahead of Double Gameweek 36.

So far, Liverpool’s Salah has been handed 50.17% of total votes by our users. Second-place De Bruyne, meanwhile, has received 18.56% of votes ahead of his double-header against Newcastle United and Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The top four is closed by two familiar names: Son Heung-min (£11.0m) and Reece James (£6.4m), with 6.03% and 3.19% respectively.

    So Ramsey a big doubt. Bloody hell - practically all my BB players got injured since I WC'd them in a few weeks back.

    Gordon the easy move of course - problem is rules out another transfer I was looking at that in involved Gordon, but keeping Ramsey 😆

    Thank god I have 2 FTs.

      Dewsbury time

      1. Eastman
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Gordon for a -4 if confirmed

  2. Eastman
    • 8 Years

    Thoughts on this fh please...

    Schmeichel
    TAA Cancelo Alonso Matip
    Salah(c) Son Foden Saka
    Rich Jesus

    Foster Nketiah Gordon Amartey

  3. Keane There Dunne That
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Schar, Willock, Kane -> Cancelo, Foden, Richarlison -4 a good move?

    Think Foden will play many minutes?

    1. No Professionals
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      foden worries me, he was my set transfer for Havertz...

  4. aleksios
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Coady+White+Kane to Cancelo+Alonso+Watkins/Jesus

    For -4?

  5. grennans2
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Ramsdale
    TAA - Robertson - James - Cancelo - Laporte
    Son - Kulu - Saka - Mount
    Kane

    Dubravka - Gordon - Weghorst - 4.5

    A or B? (2FT, planning to FH37).

    A) Mount & Kane > Salah & Nketiah
    B) Robertson, Mount & Kane > Matip, Salah & Jesus (-4)

    1. Bavarian
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      B

  6. TanN
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    This is a risky -4 that could pay dividends:

    Robertson, KDB, KDH --> Matip, Son, Saka

    Thoughts?

    1. RealSocialDads
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      No no no no no

    2. RealSocialDads
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Could pay dividends and could also backfire massively

    3. Mr. O'Connell
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Come on now

  7. Malinwa
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Any news on White? Is he fit?.

    1. StevenW
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Need to know this too

    2. Jusagoras
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Arteta presser in two hours

  8. No Professionals
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    pages moving quick...

    Pope
    Robertson Cancelo James Cash
    Salah Havertz Saka Ramsey
    Kane Watkins

    Sanchez Gordon Mateta Schar*
    0m 1FT (only BB left)

    A) Havertz and Schar to Foden and Holgate/Fofana (BB)
    B) Havertz and Kane to KDB and Jesus

    other things is, is it worth doing Sanchez to Foster for a hit on BB?

    1. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I would be tempted to redo keepers entirely as part of a minus 8 with Havertz as cash cow - Kulu Schmeichel Pickford plus cheap defender in, Matip or Alonso if that computes

  9. Hulk Smash
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Assuming Saka plays both and Foden only plays one, which would you prefer?

    A - Saka
    B - Foden

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      A for sure

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      2 is more than 1 last I checked...

    3. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      A, think he’s a good differential captain even

  10. StevenW
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Which scores more?

    A) Kane, Raphina, Toney

    B) KDB, Nkethia & Richalison (-8)

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. No Professionals
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      guess it depends if it changes your captaincy choice

    3. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      a

  11. umerlfc
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Which pairs scores more in DGW36?

    A) TAA + Davies
    B) Robbo + Matip

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      B

    2. Arfaish
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      100% B

  12. Quan MisTaka
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Rank in terms of GW36 score

    A) Robbo
    B) James
    C) Alonso

    1. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      CBA which is also how I feel towards owning Reece James these days

  13. Tinfoil Deathstar
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Fantastic suggestions would be most welcome. 2 FT’s. £0.1 ITB. Will be playing FH in DGW37 so can ignore Everton and Villa. Open to a hit.

    Foster
    Trent - Robbo - Cancelo - James
    Salah (c) - Saka (vc) - Kulu - Mount - Martinelli
    Kane

    Bench: Dubravka; White, Broja, 4.5

  14. FPL MAN 123
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    G2G?
    1FT in the bank.
    FH next week.

    Ramsdale*
    TAA* | VVD* | James*
    Salah*(TC) | Saka* | Maddison* | Kulu* | Coutinhio*
    Kane* | Dennis*

    Foster* | Broja | Schar | White*

    James & White > Cancelo & 3.8m for -4?

  15. Baines on Toast...
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    My keepers are Raya and Sanchez (no BB). Worth a -4 to get Pickford/4.0 ahead of them for the final 3?

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      for Sanchez

      you can play Raya vs Leeds in final week

  16. primal33
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Best defender for max 5.7m for the rest of the year?

    Tempted by Matip bu worried Konate could get a start this DGW.

    Cash/Digne/Mina is my other options thanks to the double double GW.

  17. balint84
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Keep White or bring Holgate in?

    1. Arfaish
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Keep

  18. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Havertz > Mahrez or Foden for free?

    Mahrez on pens and scored a beauty in Madrid should be him right?

    1. Arfaish
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Id go Mahrez

  19. Jässi
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Best City defender to transfer in with limited budget?

    A) Ake
    B) Zinchenko
    C) Take one more hit for -12 and get in Laporte/Dias + A or B

    1. Monkeyslut96
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Not worth a -12 with 4 games left. Zinchenko could be a punt with Walker likely out

  20. FPL MAN 123
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Ramsdale*

    TAA* | VVD* | James* | (White | Schar)

    James & White > Cancelo & Fodder (For -4)

    1. artvandelay316
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Chelsea fixtures look quite good. Wolves doing terribly right now and Leeds known for conceding goals, so not sure about losing James.

    2. Arfaish
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Not for a hit no

  21. TanN
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    I really need an answer - is it worth doing Robbo to Matip in order to free up funds? I have Trent.

    Would likely do:

    KDH to Saka OR Broja to Richarlison

    1. Eastman
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      If not for a hit maybe.

      1. TanN
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        I have 2 ft

        1. Eastman
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Go for it. Probably Rich looking at next week too

  22. Eastman
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    I have Toney (SOU) and Mateta (WAT) on a bb. Decent fixtures but single gw and not sure Mateta starts.Nil itb.
    Worth taking hits to move to double gwers. Would have to be maybe
    Pukki and Nketiah for a -8.
    Y or N

    1. Arfaish
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I wouldn't for either, could easily end in a deficit

      1. Eastman
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Yes maybe right. Toney could do well this gw too. Thanks

  23. Arfaish
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    On BB for this week. How does the following look:

    Son, Havertz, Cucho, Amartey > KDB, Gordon, Nketiah, Alonso (-8)

    Rambo, Foster
    James, Robbo, TAA, Cancelo, Amartey*
    Salah, Son*, Mount, Havertz*, Maddison
    Mateta, Pukki, Cucho*

  24. AMP

    sorry it repost

    Hi all

    dont know what to do. Any ideas appreciated

    Sa
    TAA - Laporte - Cancelo - James
    Salah - Saka - Martinelli - Kulu - Coutinho
    Kane

    (Foster - Cash - Gelhardt - Broja)

    Thinking Sa to Kasper. Any hits worth for extra?

    1FT ... ITB 0.4

    1. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      No, keepers all that's required.

      1. AMP
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        thank you

  25. Adderz
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    I feel like being punty (will be FHing next week):

    Dubravka -> Ederson
    Robertson -> Laporte
    Barnes -> Gordon
    Weghorst -> RIcharlison

    ?

    1. JT11fc
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Good punts there, as long as it doesnt stuff your gw38 plans

  26. PScholes18
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    BB Team G2G?

    Schmeichel - Foster
    James - TAA - Matip - Cancelo - Royal
    Salah - Son - Gordon - KDH - Kulu
    Richarlison - Pukki - Jesus

  27. Monkeyslut96
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Needing some advice for my Bench Boost with 2fts & 0 ITB….

    Current team is:
    Ramsdale Foster
    Cancelo Laporte James TAA White
    Salah Saka Kulu Mount Ramsey
    Kane Broja weghorst

    Option 1 :
    Broja, Weghorst, White —> Pukki , Nketiah, Davies (-4)
    Option 2:
    Broja, Weghorst, Mount —> Pukki, Richarlson, Mount (-4)

    Not entirely convinced by either of these options but I’m trying to get rid of Broja + Weghorst and get a team full of DGW’s. Any other better options?

  28. StevenW
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    White to Ake (-4). 0.5m ITB

    1. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      No

  29. tjostolv
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    A): White, Nketiah, KDB
    B) Alonso, Nkethia, Kane

  30. BullDogTevez

    Gerrard got a statue outside of Anfield yet? If not, throwing two games to Burnley and watching Everton go down surely cements it.
