    Was happy with my last minute decision to swap captaincy from Bruno to Haaland, until Bruno decided to play ball!

      Hull are the only team to have left in 0 goals after 2 games. Arsenal are the only team that could match that tomorrow.

      Not saying hull are super strong or anything, but I don't know if I'd want to captain Palmer/Pedro against them. They are playing very defensively.

      That said, most other fixtures aren't great. I'd still probably go Haaland captain (away to Man Utd) as boring as that is.

      For me it's between Egan (Hull playing defensively and is a DC magnet), Shaw (just cheap entry to Man Utd defense), De Cuyper (goal threat, decent-ish defence), Ajer (DC Magnet), or Kayode (goal threat).

      I personally bought Egan.

        oh I misread. It says you played WC, I assumed it was this week, but now I realised it must have been last week.

        I think you should stop chasing those 0.1s especially in the first few weeks. There's always a few players that do well then do nothing for most of the rest of the season. If you have good players (which you mostly have), I'd stick with them.
