      He's an option for sure. I was just saying below how it's a good week to go for a punt on your captain.

      Bowen has 2 home games and the Soton one is particularily good. I think he's on pens too?

      I admire anyone who makes picks like that. Those are what get the place hikes if they could me off.

      I fancy West Ham to score a few against Southampton so would be a good option.

      I’m doing it, but that’s more because I want West Ham to beat Soton than anything else so I get double joy, stats show he is definitely viable captain material though. Be a great differential if he does well.

    Great week to have a punt on your captain.

    - Rashford will start, but could be off after 70 minutes in both games and against tough defenses.

    - Mitoma and MacAlister could have there minutes managed. Would it surprise us if at least 2 didn't start the 1st game?

    I feel like if you punt on someone like Maddison, you're not going to lose much ground even if it doesn't work out.

        Haaland will be benched.
