GW15 Captaincy Poll

Post by **Smurphy Paw** » 02 Dec 2021, 07:17

We didn’t have one for GW14 and there’s only a day or two until the next round of fixtures.
Apologies if your pick isn’t on the list, ‘Other’ added in case I missed anyone obvious

This GW is the reason I have Kane in my team at all but now that it's here I'll probably just stick with Salah.

He's a full 56 points ahead of anyone else at the moment and he's not even outperforming his underlying numbers by all that much (scored 13 goals from 10.7xG).

Who are Liverpool playing? Oh forget it, Salah is getting it even if they are playing Brazil from 1970!

IIRC... In the past four seasons Klopp has rested Salah for a game around this time of year.

Kane (C) Salah (V)

Why?…because I never learn and believe in the law if averages

Would it not be better to rest him midweek in the champions league since they've already won their group?

With the title race so close you'd think they'll prioritise the league for now.

Not sure whether I join you again. Let us wait and see, how Kane performs tonight. I have to halt plummeting any further, especially since I believe that my team is half decent.

Both good points.

Torn between Kane and Chris Wood...

Not really, it's Salah.

Post by **Resonare** » 03 Dec 2021, 17:38

Salah C, Son VC.

Post by **Lucky** » 03 Dec 2021, 18:37

Salah (c) Kane (vc)

I thought about Dennis

Or even the law of averages.

Going with Kane again, behind in my league need a differential

Ive gone from 30k outright to 132k in a few weeks, I can see me ending up with you by the new year

Kane 2 points incoming

I've captained Kane

Post by **From4corners** » 04 Dec 2021, 11:18

I would have done the same I think if I had him. Then again, form over fixtures? Then again, again, Kane did score 200 goals in those qualifiers.

Yep. Apparently, he tried to get a game against Latvia

I’ve gone Kane again.

Feel like im in good company for once (could this be the week)

So Silva was the right captain pick

Shame you do not have him in your squad.

I Captained Kane last week

But I will be very happy for those who did so this week IF he scores a Hat Trick

because at least I will get half of that

, honestly if I gambled again, I would have gone Son(C). I think I have taken Salah on more times than most people have.

You have been correct to do so as well
