Prior to limping out of City’s Champions League defeat in Barcelona on Wednesday evening, Sergio Aguero was the runaway leader in this week’s Captain Poll. The Argentine has since been ruled out of tomorrow afternoon’s trip to Hull, scuppering many a Fantasy manager’s plan for this week and potentially beyond. Our Friday members regular returns once again as we look to the main contenders in this week’s Captain Poll for inspiration:

This week, we take a different approach to the Captain Sensible article and use the Stats Tables in the Members section as our guide. By using the top five players in this week’s Captain Poll (Aguero, Romelu Lukaku, Luis Suarez, Eden Hazard and Adam Lallana) as a starting point, we’ve created a table based around a number of their key statistics in order to flag up any other players offering a similar sort of threat.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Can anyone guess who the RMT tool says is the best captain this week?

          Got a great music one called Caustic, make your own tunes. Very very sophisticated software, there's a free version for a trial! Then 4OD, some people complain about it because of ads or it's slow sometimes but watching Channel 4 shows on your tablet/phone is handy! If you have Sky then same goes for the Sky app. Google Drive is good for documents etc. but probably more useful on a tablet than a phone.

              Then obviously the normal social stuff. Widgets for your G-Mail or E-mail are very handy because you can see a preview of the different E-Mails straight away instead of having to load up your e-mail webpage or anything like that. I think Viber is quite popular, never used it though. Same goes for Skype. I like Snapchat.

              yeah i get what you are saying

              now thinking from bookie's point of view
              if things were fixed then the odds will be higher for the thing which is fixed

    Torn between bringing in AJ or Nolan for this week...Team is

    Mannone Marshall
    Coleman Azpi Ward Chester Shaw
    Hazard Yaya Parker Lallana Noone
    Suarez Lukaku Sturridge

    Either one will be coming in for Parker...Thinking AJ purely for the fact he has all the extra DGWs. And then maybe bring Nolan in next week depending on now he looks at the weekend. Any thoughts?
