Safe. I'll hunt you down if Lacazette tears Everton apart though :P

Risked Jesus as captain too.

only risk with that is Aguero is back and he might start this weekend.

on a side note. Pascal Gross lad has a hand in about 80% of Brighton's goals this season. Just got another assist this evening. Solid points each game for cheap.

Yep, he's Turbo Pascal.

Agree about Jesus, you never know with Man City but risked it anyway.

Reckon Aguero will come in for Sane or Silva this time - City have gone 2 up top a few times already and Silva seems to have played a lot of games recently.

Been climbing up the leagues the last couple of weeks, 59, 68 and 68 again my last three weeks. Been basically carrying Sanchez since week 1 but hopefully he does the business against the ev tomorrow.

Already had Jesus and Abraham up front but brought Sterling in as well so i've now got the top three transferred in players for this week...which obviously means none of them will deliver anything ;D

238th in the RAWK league...a lot of climbing still to do!

I’m in the top 550k overall but only 122nd in a the RAWK League, it’s proper elite! The top teams must be full of traitors picking Mancs though.

Absolutely right, the top 121 are all mancs and/or traitors IMO. Time to weed them out.

That's the risk you take by having Man City players, they've so much depth and he likes to rotate. I have a couple myself but I'd be very wary about captaining them in any gameweek.

Could be one of the best real weeks if we win tomorrow.

nail on head

Had at least 50 points every week since week 3. Only on 28 with alli and salah left. Hopefully alli is sent off and salah scores 12 and has 9 assists

Decision to play Elliot paid off. Cheers Roy. Picked Mbemba too for the same reason but he didn’t even feature. Is he injured or just out of favour at the moment?

If I'd captained Kane, I'd be 371st  :o :butt

Kane confirmed out for the Man Utd clash which means I start with a -4pts because I have already done my transfers.

Went for Lazacette, he's never played a full 90mins yet but I am assuming he should be quite involved in the goals.

Made what was on paper, a good decision to swap out Coutinho for Salah for a +4 ... But of course, he had to go and do that
I would honestly let Wijnaldum jizz in my face right now

Captained Salah.  Sorry everyone, my bad.

Still got a decent total compared to most, 53 with three to play.  Not sure what is going on this season.

Absolute shambles. Not one goal from the the 8 that played. Just the two assists from Morata and Salah for a total of 28 points.

It's gameweeks like that that make me question why I play this game :)

You must have had a better captain than me then. I at least mustered a goal and assist from Firmino and Salah but struck on 21 points, something like 4.8m for the gameweek! Two Toon defenders to come and Bertrand so hope I can make some gains back but in reality that’s about another 5 points at best.

By Captain was Lacazette whom I brought in for Jesus. I got 8 from Azpilicueta though.

I'll let you all in on a secret. Callum Wilson is reasonably priced and could be a great 3rd striker, and is back from a year out, scored in the League Cup. Bournemouth got a really kind schedule coming up also. Watch this space.

Trying my strategy of Captaining a defender again. This time it's Trippier, expect a Spurs clean sheet and that would already bring me a better return than some of my forward/mid captains the past week.

Any assists or goals would be welcome.

I've just left my captaincy on Sane for a while and so far it's been good times!  I did have it on Coutinho last week but obviously it switched to Sane when he didn't play.  Debating whether to just leave Phil in the last point on my bench or switch him out for Sterling or Salah.

Last time I went there I saw masturbating chimpanzees. Whether you think that's worthy of £22 is up to you. All I'll say is I now have an annual pass.
