With six teams set for a pair of fixtures apiece in the upcoming Gameweek, our Captain Sensible article takes a different angle this Friday afternoon. We focus mainly on those sides with two matches to play and hope to emulate our previous article on double Gameweek 34, where Jason Puncheon’s underlying stats were amongst the best around prior to his 23-point haul:
A triple header sudden death between JKos, A Defenders Nightmare and AB coming up!
Because 3 people are tied, to make things fair, I'll ask 3 questions in the sudden death round. The one who gets the most correct in the 3 will be the winner of the quiz.
Be prepared!Open ControlsHaha Best of luck to you too!
Open Controls
AB answered just 1 no?
Open Controls
i only have 1. is jkos and defenders nightmare
Open Controls*jafooli only has 1
Open ControlsGentleman. Cheers.
Open ControlsAargh. Thanks for clearing that up. Still it will be 3 questions. The one who answers first and correctly b/w ADN and JKos will get the point.
Open ControlsMy time's running out.

aguero
if u r trailing u might consider mata as wellOpen Controls
What do y'all think of a Rooney => RVP move? There are plusses and minuses for both, just don't know which one has more upside for the upcoming DGW.
On one hand, from the press reports, it sounds as if Rooney will miss the Sunderland match. RVP could then get some significant minutes in that game. RVP would be an incredible differential, if he got into the DGW matches.
On the other hand, Rooney might miss that game but Wellbeck or Chicharito get most of the minutes up top due to RVP's lack of match fitness.
Or, maybe Roons makes a "miracle" recovery and plays in both games?
HELP!!!! 😉Open Controlsif trailing who would u captain?
i guess leader will pick kun now....Open Controls
Noone fancying wellbeck?
Open Controls
A) Suarez -> RVP
B) Suarez -> Wickham
C) keep SuarezOpen Controls
Apologise for going on but would really appreciate some feedback? I will recipricate where i can! 😉
What would you do with this lot? Took -8 to get here this week and im only 20pts off of our main work mini league and its worth a fair few quid so any help is appreciated?
------- Mannone (boruc) -------
Jones - Zaba - Ivan (ward, fonte)
Mata - Yaya (vc) - Sterling - Ramsey (bench fodder)
Suarez - Aguero (c) - Rooney
Thanks in advance allOpen Controls
Doesn't look like you have enough differentials to overcome those points assuming he has a team similarly template to yours.
Open Controls
Agreed, depends what your rival has. But with a lot of teams being similar it'll probably come down to captaincy. Has he got Aguero? If not did he already have 3 Man City players before this week? You can also take a look at his squad and see how many transfers he's made this week (but you can't see who obviously) and have a guess at what he'll do.
Open Controls
Like ENZE says captain pick could be the difference, gamble MATA? good points return at home
Open ControlsMata, that could pay off huge but will he start? And can we see him scoring more than aguero or Yaya?
Thanks appreciate it!Open Controlsagree its a big gamble but wi rooney looking like he wont play and his performance wi only half an hour game time can giggs really drop him, il prob bottle the mata decision and go with aguero as C but im more interested than staying with the trend in my league and keeping my position

He wore the same boxer shorts that had been spotted protruding from the side of the waistband of his tracksuit pants in training on Tuesday.
From this, we can gather that Pellegrini either..

b) Has two pairs of the same boxer shorts.
c) He washed Tuesdays pair on Wednesday, and is wearing them again today by chance.Open Controls

Completely misread the question. You had all the time in the world to have answered it because Jkos had got it wrong. Anyways the 3rd question coming up!

Who to Captain now if trailing in ML? Mata for a risk, Aguero? I really don't know.
Open Controls
With Boruc in nets and YYT*, Mata, Eriksen & Ramsey* across midfield, who would you pick to complete the team?
A) Ivanovic, Chester (or Baines*), Evra, Dzeko*, Aguero, Suarez*
B) Ivanovic, Demichelis, Evra, Suarez*, Rooney. Aguero
* = rival, chasing 49pts, also has them.Open ControlsB but someone else for.rooney if possible
Open ControlsThat's the problem. I already have Rooney, but no MCI or MAN def, got Baines and Coleman.
Replacing Rooney would be a hit too far in B.
Someone's going to have a word in his ear, surely, and say "as much as you want to play, do you realise it could cost you your World Cup place?"
Best to hang in the hope we get a leak, I suppose.Open ControlsPS Cheers for reply.
Open Controls
Cheers.
It's actually the other way around, he needs to catch me up. But I feel dirty putting a block on Dzeko by bringing him in.Open Controls
I was going to captain Rooney, but after the news about his injury should I:
A) Keep him and captain him
B) Keep him and captain Mata/Yaya toure
C) -8 to free up a man city spot and get aguero
D) -4 to sell him for (non-man city recommendation)
(Already made free transfer, have suarez and dzeko, have 3 man city players already)Open ControlsAppreciate the commitment 🙂 🙂 🙂

What are people doing with Rooney now that he is possibly injured? Captaining Aguero instead? Rooney could become a captain differential if this continues! And he will play both imo. Lets go Roooooney
