I just had a nosey at this too. Also West Ham's xGA is pretty poor in comparison. Kun for me then, Salah vice.

Re: GW13 Captain
Really tough this week.
Have Martial but do I dare give him the band (I still have nightmares when I made him TC in a DGW after some recent good form only for LVG to bring him on in the second game with 10 minutes to go).
If you have/had Martial, Aguero and Salah what would you choose?
Should I play safe and follow the ‘crowd?’
Definitely the most difficult Capt decision so far this season.

Re: GW13 Captain
SneakyOne - yes very tough this week. I have Martial as well as Rich, Salah, Aguero, Hazard (so dilemma central) but I'm going the 'safer' route and captaining Kun as I think he'll fire off some shots and get chances. Martial's underlying stats show he's overperforming despite his great form and I dont trust ManU so I dare not armband him. For me it's if in doubt play safe with captaincy.

Re: GW13 Captain
Cheers Joshua82, I think you are right, it doesn’t sit well with me to capt a Utd player.
Will go for the high scoring city and give the band to Aguero.

Re: GW13 Captain
I can't recall a captain choice being this difficult. My options are Salah, Aguero, Sterling and Richarlison, and have absolutely no idea. Currently on RIcharlison based on him being the most likely to play 90 minutes.

Re: GW13 Captain
I think Doherty may prove the best option but don’t have the balls to do it.

Re: GW13 Captain
Bernardo Silva is out so I expect all three to start and Mahrez in the hole.
Okay, again, assuming we know Mahrez is going to start, how stupid of a choice is it to captain him?Pirlo's Beard wrote:I agree.
You should go for it, Joccki.

GW13 Captain
Just did a little research to predicted lineups and it seems Gündoğan is in more than half the teams I see, which makes a start for both Mahrez and Sané unlikely.Stevieste wrote:Ive got him as my vice captain as i fancy mysef this week to do well.

Re: GW13 Captain
Aparently it was a very stupid idea. I finally went for Salah - of course I'm happy to do so point-wise, on the other hand I blame myself for playing safe and being dull...Sutter Kane wrote: ↑23 Nov 2018, 19:26Not at all. I wouldn't even call it brave, such is the split in captaincy. Not a lot is going to hurt too much unless Salah, Richarlison and Aguero all score heavily.
I'm still on Aguero.
Well, after this GW I won't be gambling for sure...

Re: GW13 Captain
I was supposed to get rid of him this GW but just decided he gets to stay one more game because of those injuries (Jesus, B. Silva, Gündoğan). But captain material?

We can celebrate together when he gets a brace and 2 assists this weekend with max bps.
That statement sounds like one of them carlsberg jokes haha
