We roll out the next instalment of our weekly article for Members tonight, offering an in-depth statistical analysis of the main captaincy contenders for the set of fixtures ahead. With Luis Suarez topping the Captain Poll, we assess the Everton defence ahead of the Anfield Merseyside derby. We also dig deep into the data of Eden Hazard and Samuel Eto’o ahead of the home game against West Ham, whilst Sergio Aguero and Wayne Rooney’s prospects are also discussed, with the latter now back in full training ahead of Cardiff’s visit on Tuesday evening:

    Warning: Stupidest thing I've ever done

    So somehow I put in Clark instead of Vlaar for my WC, even though I thought I had picked vlaar...apparently I selected Clark...

    Do I waste a FT to save the 0.2? Don't particularly have any plans to reinvest the 0.2 though.

      Clark has quite a good goal threat, randomly. But also is bit of a card magnet.

      Give him a go, it might be a sign!

    Before tonight had decided to do Coleman & Silva to Mata & Rafael -4, as I felt Rafael would be a similar pick to Coleman once United pick up form.

    Now not sure whether to do?

    A) Gerrard & Coleman to Mata & Evans + 0.6 ITB
    B) Silva & Coleman to Mata & Evans +1.1 ITB
    C) or stick with the intended plan +0.2 ITB

    Currently have no cash ITB and also have Chester (injured) & Whittaker (Dropped) as the other Defenders

      Except rafael is a card magnet with his all or nothing challenges.

      Also, once United pick up form? haven't we been waiting for that all season? All for getitng in Mata as an attacking threat as they will score goals, but the Utd defence isn't what it once was.
