Captain Poll

FPL managers set for more tough captaincy choices in Gameweek 9

After weeks of captaincy frustration, Fantasy Premier League managers are set for more tough armband decisions ahead of Gameweek 9.

Manchester City and Liverpool both have relatively challenging away matches next weekend, which could deter us from the usual suspects.

Pep Guardiola’s defending champions travel to Selhurst Park on Saturday afternoon, where Crystal Palace have conceded just one goal in four matches this season.

That strike came in the dying embers of a 1-1 draw with Wolves in Gameweek 6, courtesy of Diogo Jota (£6.1m).

Outside of that, the Eagles have kept clean sheets Everton, Aston Villa and Norwich in front of their own fans.

Manchester City assets underwhelmed in their 2-0 defeat to Wolves

Naturally, Manchester City do usually pose a greater threat, with owners of Sergio Aguero (£12.2m), Raheem Sterling (£12.1m) and Kevin de Bruyne (£10.0m) all hoping for both starts and returns this weekend.

But the Citizens’ recent poor performance against Wolves in Gameweek 8 might go some way to putting Fantasy managers off for the captaincy, especially considering Palace’s home defensive record.

Meanwhile, Liverpool travel to Old Trafford, a ground at which they have never won in the Premier League under Jurgen Klopp.

In all competitions, the former Borussia Dortmund manager has drawn three and lost one at Manchester United’s historic stadium during his time in charge of the Reds.

In total, his side has scored three goals there but on their most recent visit, back in February, the match ended 0-0.

Fantasy managers are likely to steer clear of Liverpool attackers for the captaincy in Gameweek 9

While Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men have been far from special going forward this season, their defence has shown some improvement on last season.

They have two Premier League clean sheets at Old Trafford in 2019/20, against Chelsea and Leicester and have been boasting some relatively impressive defensive underlying statistics.

All of this is likely to leave nagging questions at the back of the mind for Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) and Sadio Mané (£11.7m) owners when it comes to the armband.

Given Manchester United’s shocking attacking displays of late, perhaps Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.2m) and Andrew Robertson (£6.9m) might receive more consideration than their midfield colleagues?

Aubameyang and Arsenal are likely to find life tough at Sheffield United next Monday

Even those looking at Arsenal assets such as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.1m) may have their concerns about a Monday night trip to Sheffield United.

The Blades have conceded just seven goals this season, only Liverpool have allowed fewer, while Chris Wilder has made all the top-six sides work for their results thus far.

Chelsea were held to a 2-2 draw in Gameweek 4, while the only reason Klopp’s men scored at Bramall Lane in Gameweek 7 was because of an uncharacteristic error from Dean Henderson (£4.5m).

For all of those reasons, Gameweek 9 could be see a host of differential options top the upcoming captain poll, which you can now vote in (below).

Wilson will be the favourite Bournemouth option ahead of Norwich’s trip to the Vitality Stadium

Naturally, there will be a lot of consideration for Bournemouth assets in Gameweek 9 as they host a Norwich side that conceded five at home to Aston Villa last time out.

Callum Wilson (£7.9m) is expected to be the favourite of these having registered attacking returns in all but one match so far this season.

Those unable to get the England international into their squads may also look to Josh King (£6.3m), who has double-figure hauls in both of his last two matches at the Vitality Stadium – and remains the Cherries’ penalty taker.

Abraham has been in decent statistical form of late

One of just two of Gameweek 8’s top 20 captains to actually deliver attacking returns was Tammy Abraham (£7.7m), who, with each passing week, looks more and more capable of factoring in the conversation for the armband.

After the first eight matches of the 2019/20 campaign, the Chelsea forward is joint-top of the league for goals scored, alongside Aguero (eight).

Abraham is also top of the league for shots on target, which is probably why his bonus score is also looking quite healthy, a total of 11 to his name thus far – more than any other player.

Ahead of Newcastle’s visit to Stamford Bridge, it would be surprising to see Abraham not considered among the best options, especially given the Magpies’ record on the road this season.

In four away matches in 2019/20, Steve Bruce’s men have conceded 11 times, an average of 2.75 per game.

You can now vote in the latest captain poll on our website, either below or in the sidebar on the right.

Joe and David will be speaking about the debate in the captain video, which you can watch on our YouTube channel from 12:30 pm on Monday.

    Too much with CHO, Mount and Tammy? Considering -8 for Salah, Sterling, Pukki and Cantwell to Aguero, Mane, Maddison and Hudson Odoi. What do you think?

    1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Not too much. But don't like the moves.

        using Cambridge maths to simplify?

        Salah Sterling James
        vs
        Mane Auba Abraham

        prefer A

        1. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years

        B

      5. AndyCook
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Abraham much better than James so B

      6. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        No way ... just one of Pukki or Cantwell out if you wish to transfer in somebody in ... keep Salah and Sterling ...

        Thoughts on
        Salah + Pukki + 4.4forward—-> Auba + Vardy + 4.4mid(-4)

        Yay or nay

        1. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Not sure for -4 ... pick one Auba or Vardy and trade Salah if that's your tactical approach (without Liv until GW13)

      8. Boing03
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Salah or Mane for long term?

        1. Eat my goal!
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          GW13 both

        2. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          No such a thing ... swapping back and forth until GW38 😉

        3. Alonso The Great Midfielder

          mane

          1. Alonso The Great Midfielder
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            although salah has penalty, but mane doing good with header too which salah hasnt

            1. Boing03
              • 4 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              I know. Thats why it's hard to pick. Sahah also more likely to play 90 min. But Mane has more point in the end of last season and have more poin now in less min play... If Salah did't take penalty it would be easyer 🙂 But still I think it's safer with Salah, don't know why... 😛

        4. doy
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Mane

      9. aleksios
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Which one?

        a) Pukki to Vardy/Wilson for free.
        b) Salah+Green+Pukki to Maddison+Wilson+Vardy for -8.

        Thanks.

        1. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          A and don't want to loose Salah for a hit

          In Tokyo, heading over to the fan zone to watch it in about an hour. Japan on form, and you can see how much they want it. I think they will win.

          • 12 Years

          burnley will be tough opposition

        3. rubberdignerapids
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Could pay off, but there are better options on paper

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Which is better with 2 FT’s:

        a) Digne > Söyüncü and Greenwood > King (means keeping Pukki and moving to 3-4-3)
        B) Digne > Söyüncü and Pukki > Wilson (means staying at 3-5-2 and playing Cantwell as a 5th mid each week)

        Thanks.

        Anyone made an Aguero, Auba, Abraham team work yet? Proving very tough

        1. HamezMace
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Should be easy now the myth of premium defence has been exposed.
          Plus the value in midfield, KdB, Mount, Maddison all kindly priced

        2. Alonso The Great Midfielder
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          should be easy if you not include liverpool midfielder

          1. HamezMace
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            It’s even possible if you did,
            I can do
            Mane, KdB, Mount, Cantwell
            Aguero, Auba, Abraham
            Still with a decent defence.

          Got a draft but not sure on Arsenal with them fixtures.

          Pope
          TAA Kelly Lund Rico Soy
          Mount Cantwell Mane KDB Saka
          Tammy Kun Auba

          1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Them fixtures as in very good organised teams who will put 10 men behind the ball. Could never captain Auba so not worth his value

          2. The Legend Squad

            Mane KDB Yarmolenko
            Kun Auba Abraham

            Button Cantwell Saka Kelly

            Still 0.4m ITB though... any obvious upgrades?

              I've made a right mess of trying to build value in my wc week. No thanks to FPL stats.

              You could get Mount .

              . 4 itb

              Saka to Dendo .1
              Ryan to Gazzinga .2
              Tomori to Soy .1

              Yarmo to mount ?

          Ota / Tomori / Soy / Rico / Lund
          Mane / Maddi / Mount / KDB / Cantwell
          Kun / Tammy / Auba

            Just missing TAA which could hurt me

        • 5 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        WC active, any suggestions

        Gazzianga

        TAA Matip Tomori

        Mane KDB Mahrez Mount

        Vardy Wilson Abraham

        Subs Jorginho Lundstram Rico

        I know Mahrez suffers from rotation but he's returning at the same rate as Sterling.

        1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          I would personally try to get Sterling in over Mane. But very nice!

        2. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Better options for Matip, Mahrez and Jorginho ,,, the rest is great

          1. Hktrader88
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Matip I believe is undervalued. I expect over the season his returns to be similar to VVD. Same clean sheets and both go up for setpieces.

            Jorginho. I'm not that happy with, but feel that he's on penalties for this move Chelsea run. Feel its too early to go for CHO.

            Mahrez. Yes, big gamble. I may end up smashing the place up as Pep brings him on for 5 minute cameos. But so far this season he's returning the same as Sterling, and with KDB in the team I'm unlikely to ever captain Sterling so thought that would be a waste of funds. Also got one eye on Martial coming back if Mahrez flops

        3. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Mane vs sterling is tough . At mo I'm going Razza because I can easily downgrade to Mane and I'm facing a lot of sterling captainers over the next few so it defends against that when I captain Kun

      15. Eytexi
        • 5 Years

        Hearing a lot about Son not starting against Watford. What's that all about?

        1. HamezMace
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Think S.Korea have a game 48hr before, or something pretty close, time difference and flights too

        2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Knowing Poch I don't think he plays because we play in Europe too on the Tuesday which is a must win.

        3. Wild Rover
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Also over in Asia, Son Heung-min (£9.8m) is part of the South Korea squad that take on Sri Lanka and North Korea in two World Cup qualifiers, with the last of those kicking off on Tuesday morning UK time.

          Son had a similar schedule in the September international break but went on to play 90 minutes and record a 16-point haul in his first game back with Spurs.

          1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            It's the must win Europe game that would worry me. He won't start both imo so which one does he start ?

        4. doy
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          He played vs Sri Lanka and then has a game in North Korea on Tuesday.....he will be benched vs Watford IMHO.

        Folks, is Auba the only viable Arsenal option for those fixtures?

        1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Yes

          1. Magic Zico
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Ufff 11.1 M

        2. FOO FIGHTER
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          I am thinking of punting Pepe for the fixtures. Massive risk though...

          1. Magic Zico
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Not thinking this as yet

            1. FOO FIGHTER
              • 4 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              He has been returning lately though. In two minds so will see over the next 2 GW's.

        3. HamezMace
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          What’s the deal with Saka Arsenal fans? Is he pretty sure of game time now?

          1. Magic Zico
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Is it not Laca's return the risk? But 4.5M is risk worth taking? Sorry am not Arsenal fan though ...

            1. HamezMace
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Probably, Laca up top, and Auba taking Saka spot I guess makes sense.

        4. Alonso The Great Midfielder
          • 12 Years

            Bellerin back.

        6. doy
          • 6 Years

          Tierney too when he starts playing...

      17. Thomas Jerome Newton
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        I have injury concerns for Salah and Cantwell. I was intending Mahrez to De Bruyne but injury and rotation concerns there too.
        My team has a fair number of away fixtures. I have used my WildCard and don't want to take hits.
        I'm thinking, is it a crazy idea to use my Free Hit this week to let the injury information settle for the week after?

        1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Better to just take a hit or two even if you don't like it. Free hit is a waste to use now.

        2. FOO FIGHTER
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          No problem with Salah. He will start GW9.

        3. Eytexi
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah I'd say that's crazy. Let's see your full team.

          1. Thomas Jerome Newton
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Pope;
            TAA, Digne, Tomori;
            Salah, Sterling, Mahrez, Cantwell;
            Abraham, Haller, Pukki;
            (Rico, Lund, Douglas Luiz)

            1. Eytexi
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Not a lot to worry about there mate! Should be good news for your 75% players, so the transfer looks good for use on Mahrez or Pukki.

        4. Alonso The Great Midfielder
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          just stay with salah

      18. Rinseboy
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Thoughts on either of these moves.
        Salah and Pukki to
        A - KDB and Vardy
        B - Mane and CWilson?

        Pope
        TAA Otta Soyuncu Rico Lunds

          A

        2. Kellz86
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah given the next few for Liverpool if you were ever going to temporarily ditch then it's now. Maybe wait for more concrete news on KDB first though.

        3. Amey
          • 5 Years

          B

        4. rubberdignerapids
          • 4 Years

          A looks tasty with upcoming fixtures

        5. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

      19. Cak Juris
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Best transfer for GW 9:
        A. Salah - Haller >> Maddison - Aubameyang
        B. Salah - Pukki >> Maddison - Aubameyang
        C. Haller - Pukki >> Vardy - Connoly
        D. Haller - Pukki >> Wilson - Maupay
        E. Digne - Haller - Pukki >> Rico - Connoly - Aubameyang (-4 pts)

        1. rubberdignerapids
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          B looks the best out of that lot

      20. Kellz86
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Any one else feeling like we are going to miss a Vardy Party this weekend, how viable is capt given the other options?

        1. Eytexi
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Planned to get him this week for a while but am going for Wilson instead. Burnley tend to be solid at the back & looking at the fixtures, Wilson to Vardy in GW14 looks the way to go (for me at least).

          1. Kellz86
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Yeah I am also Wilson (c) currently. Frontline is Vardy, Callum, Abraham

            1. Eytexi
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Very nice - Vardy could really hurt me but hopefully the risk pays off. Mine will be Auba, Callum, Abraham: as much as having Auba is luxury, he takes up a precious forward spot. Would love to have room to go for Jiminez as well as Vardy.

        2. The FPL Units
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Got him but not captain have given that to Tammy.

        3. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Have him

        4. rubberdignerapids
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Went for Auba and Maddison vs Vardy- his returns can be explosive despite having poor stats

      21. Tonyawesome69
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        How's my WC team?

        Is it worth considering dropping sterling to bring in 3rd striker vardy/auba/jimi?

          how about traore over CHO?

          1. Tonyawesome69
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            He is an interesting choice but with wait until Wolves are out of the Europa

            1. doy
              • 6 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Fair enough, I think they on the upswing though and will do well even with UEL committments! I am really looking at Jimi now.

        2. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          I'd bring Aguero IN for Raz.

            Too mucj rotation risk with Jesus

              • 14 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              No evidence of that yet?

              Only happened twice when kun not match fit and he had a ' niggle"

              1. Amey
                • 5 Years
                4 years, 5 months ago

                Still he's 3/4 top FPL scorer ??
                I'm jealous of people having Kun (Have Raz & No FT to bring in Kun)
                He's IMO safest © option @ Home !

                1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
                  • 14 Years
                  4 years, 5 months ago

                  Unless Pep shows that Jesus is number one again or kun is injured , I've got the kun handcuffs and I've lost the key

      22. doy
        • 6 Years

        Has to be C. Wilson or Tamtam.

      23. Mr. Mystic

        My team:

        0.6 ITB:
        Heaton (Pope)
        TAA Ota Soy (Lund, Kelly)
        Sterling Salah KDB Mount Cantwell
        Vardy Abraham (Greenwood)

        Want Bournemouth cover so thinking of WC’ding to:

        Pope (Mcgovrern*)
        TAA Tomori* Soy (Lund Kelly)
        Sterling Salah KDB Mount Cantwell
        Vardy Abraham King*

          Current team looks good, I wouldn't wildcard

        2. Tonyawesome69
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Not worth using WC for 3 transfers

      24. All For One
        • 5 Years

        Start Lundstram or Cantwell?

        1. rubberdignerapids
          • 4 Years

          Cantwell supposedly got a hammy. I would start him and Lund first sub

        1. rubberdignerapids
          • 4 Years

          Don’t like eleny as if you start to get injuries or rotation (eg sterling) you may not be able to field 11

          1. Tonyawesome69
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            I agree. Since you have Schmeichel to cover LEI defence, maybe change SOY for Kelly and upgrade Elneny

            1. Tonyawesome69
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Or change Schmeichel to pope/ryan and allow funds to change elneny

        2. All For One

          Very nice midfield and strike force, will be hard to pick a captain lol

      28. Silecro
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Are those two transfers:

        OUT: Haller, Cantwell
        IN: Maupay, Yarmolenko (or CHO)

        ...too sideways? Really want Cantwell out of my team, fairly happy with rest of the squad. Haller only one i would be willing to sacrifice, but given Cantwell's awkward price, this is the best i could come up with.

        A. Pukki
        B. Maddison

        trying to decide whether to bring in maddison this week or next.
        will be a hit either way

        1. Tonyawesome69
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          B - he has good fixtures and worth taking a hit

            i am getting him regardless, either this week or next is the question

      31. Rhodes your boat

        Thoughts on taking out son for mount with international duty possibly affecting his playing time

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Both of them are playing IB so that shouldn't be topic of discussion.
          Fixtures for Mount are so amazing though. I personally would like to get Mount purely on fixtures & form of team

      32. Kasper the ghost keeper
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Might be an unpopular opinion but losing Trent for Matip allows well balanced team with a forward line of Abraham, Aubamayang and Aguero. Worth considering?

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Actually, I'd be looking at doubling up alongside Taa (Matip) from gw 13
          Taa Matip Mane is affordable & looks good enough too

          1. Kasper the ghost keeper
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Could pay off well. I think I'll have to just make a straight choice between Aguero and Aubamayang!

        1. abaalan
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Will be tempted if i need 0.1 on wc (downgrade from 4.5) - but tierney is the one i want, if and when he starts playing regularly.

          Even though Ars defence is a shambles, those fixtures look prime for some clean sheets (and possible attacking returns)
