Vote in Gameweek 10 captain poll as Salah takes early lead

You can now vote in the captain poll for Gameweek 10 of Fantasy Premier League and watch our latest video.

Joe and David have discussed the options available to us on our YouTube channel, but you can also view it at the bottom of this article.

Mohamed Salah (£12.8m) returns to the captain conversation this week after finally scoring his fourth league goal of the season against Huddersfield.

Liverpool are to host newly-promoted Cardiff City, who have conceded 19 goals so far in 2018/19. Only Fulham have been breached more times.

That means that some Fantasy managers may be considering Sadio Mané (£9.7m) or Roberto Firmino (£9.3m) if there is positive news on their chances of starting on Saturday afternoon.

Eden Hazard (£11.4m) is sure to receive some attention as Chelsea go to Burnley. No side has allowed as many chances as the Clarets this season.

It will be interesting to see what effect Manchester City’s trip to Wembley to play Tottenham will have on Gameweek 9’s most-captained option Sergio Aguero (£11.3m).

While Manchester City have had the advantage over Spurs in recent years, Aguero has just one goal in his last six league matches against the north London club.

Furthermore, he has found the net just once away from home this season.

Raheem Sterling (£11.2m), David Silva (£8.5m) and Riyad Mahrez (£8.6m) have all impressed in recent weeks and may be looked at for the armband.

It will also be interesting to see how many are prepared to back Bournemouth as they take on Fulham’s dreadful defence.

No side has ever conceded as many goals after nine Gameweeks of a Premier League season than the Cottagers’ 25. They are giving up chances at a phenomenal rate which could potentially benefit anyone of Callum Wilson (£6.4m), Josh King (£5.1m) or Ryan Fraser (£6.0m) in Gameweek 10.

      Too much in defence

      Don’t like seri option. And whilst I can see logic in Milner it is risky

      Downgrade trippier to Bennett.

      Luiz to Gomez

      Get Schurrle.

      I'd be somewhat tempted to downgrade Trippier and give yourself slightly better options for the rotation slot(Seri to Schürrle). Otherwise i'd be happy with it.

      How about Ryan instead of Fabs, and Balbuena instead of Duffy - that way, if Ryan gets injured/when he goes away for the Asia Cup in Jan then Button instantly comes in and you don't waste a transfer immediately? Plus Balbuena's about to score big - I wrote about it here 🙂 https://www.fantasyfootballpundit.com/west-ham-players-in-fpl/

      Why not? So because Laporte is starting over Kompany then Laporte might not play? Players can play a game on Tuesday and then a weekend game :). But guess we'll see
