Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers have three main captain candidates for Gameweek 6, with Cristiano Ronaldo (£12.7m), Mohamed Salah (£12.6m) and Michail Antonio (£7.9m) all in the conversation.

First, we will assess the fallout of the Gameweek 6 captain poll, before then analysing the best options, Rate My Team (RMT) and the Premier Fantasy Tools ratings ahead of Saturday’s 11:00 BST deadline.

THE CAPTAIN POLL

Ronaldo dominates the vote so far.

The Portuguese forward, who has produced four goals in three starts since re-signing for Manchester United, has gained 47.57% of total votes from our users at the time of writing.

Meanwhile, second-placed Salah has received 27.72% of votes ahead of his away match against Brentford.

Antonio occupies third place with 7.98%, with the top-five list completed by Romelu Lukaku (£11.6m) and Bruno Fernandes (£11.9m), with 3.52% and 2.35% respectively.

MOHAMED SALAH AND SADIO MANE

HOW HAS CAPTAIN SENSIBLE PERFORMED SO FAR THIS SEASON?

    Need some help got 1 FT £0.5 ITB, looking to wildcard next week to be honest:

    Sanchez
    Livra Shaw TAA Ayling** Coufal
    Bissouma* Salah Jota
    Ronaldo Antonio

    Subs: Foster ESR Raphina** Bamford***

    Should I:
    A. Keep as it is and not worry about missing players - worry is Raphina or Ayling to start?
    B. Do a FT Bissouma > Gray/Sarr - which?
    C. Do my wildcard this week

    So a Twitter thread has been started by a group of guys who think Ronaldo is guilty of the alledged offence in Las Vegas but are still happy to own him. Where do you stand morally?

      But I'd pick Benjamin Mendy or Adam Johnson if they'd get me FPL points.

      Me not picking Ronaldo in FPL makes no difference whatsoever in getting justice for his actions.

    Anyone else waiting until GW8 to bring in Lukaku? 2 week international break but Belgium are playing France in the Semi's of Nations league on 7th Oct, will be a tough match. How many price rises will Lukaku have between now and then? 0.3M rise? Also with International breaks puts me off getting players early because of possible injuries.

    Last week I really wanted to captain jota but in the end went ‘boring’ and capped salah

      Early thoughts are something along the lines of:

      Ramsdale or Sanchez
      TAA - Rudiger - Alonso/James - Cancelo/Dias - Livra
      Salah - ?? - ?? - ??
      Lukaku - Antonio

      Will WC in 8 personally

        Agree with this. Cheap mid enablers in Mbeumo, Gallagher and Raphinha

          Actually, with that set-up you can still get a decent mid of £8m+ and Raphina + Sarr/Gallagher, etc. It doesn't have to be cheap mids necessarily

      The defender Tuchel has used the most since he took over Chelsea. Around 90
