We roll out another instalment of our new weekly article for Members this evening, offering an in-depth statistical analysis of the main captaincy contenders for the Gameweek ahead. Each of the top four supply us with a player apiece this time out as we crunch the numbers to determine whether there really is an alternative to a certain Uruguayan for the armband:
Flanagan ..... Liverpool coverage for a couple of weeks @4.5
Open Controlsis he a starter?

Whether it's worth -4 depends entirely on how good a transfer you make. I would do Faye -> Gabbi, no problem with that to get 11 players and strengthen the team for the Christmas period. Faye isn't likely to get much gametime and Gabbi seems nailed.
Open Controls
With all the injuries, suspensions, rotation risks and general doubts, quite a few of us have made survival transfers.
Are you happy with your new purchases or do you feel that your team is poorer for them?Open ControlsThis year Ive had many injuries etc. However, I managed to replace them fairly wisely in most cases, although Bony and now recently Vlaar has been annoying.
I will probably sit on Vlaar this week and get rid of Brady (who clearly isnt right since return from injury - another one ive had along with many others)Open Controls
How is Rat > Kosch and Brady > Oveido for free?
Open Controlskos doesnt really have easy fixtures in the next 3 and oviedo is a small term punt. i think its a waste of two valuable transfers IMO
Open ControlsNot good. If that's your priority your team must look pretty good. I'd look at Rat -> Gabbi or just save FT and get Jagielka next GW if you got the cash.

A) Stick with Remy this GW, save one FT and have 2 FTs next GW which allows me to be more flexible, but I'll probably lose a little value.
B) Remy -> Lukaku, even though he has a tougher fixture he is in better form. Leaves me with only 1FT next GW, but gains a little value.Open Controlslol tougher fixture. how dare you!!!
looks like your bringing in lukaku next week anyways so might as well do it now. fixture wise they are both hard. i can see united keeping a cleanie on satOpen Controls😆 Let's face it, Arsenal have been simply amazing defensively the whole season and are just now getting the paid for it in terms of clean sheets. United, not so much.
So, what you are saying is that you would rather have Lukaku and 0 FTs this GW than Remy and 1 FT saved?Open Controlsare you going to bring in lukaku next week anyways?
Open ControlsYupp. That's my CURRENT plan, and I'm pretty set on it, but I know things can change drastically every GW so that's why I was thinking I might as well wait since I don't mind having Remy this GW. Blargh. Tough one.
Open Controlsjust hold then for this week. you wont lose much value waiting and if any injuries occur your in a better position with 2 frees.
im holding on ozil to hazard this week tooOpen Controls

Wildcard played this week.... how can this team be improved? I have gone for a strong defense over Midfield as it seems really hit and miss.
Currently ranked in top 100k but falling behind main rival in mini league.Open ControlsNeed a new 5th sub.
Faye out. Do O opt for the risky Flanagan or reliable Gabbidon?Open ControlsWith Boruc, Clyne and Wanyama out, Saints' defence looking dreadful. Also bad fixtures coming up make me glad I already got rid of Boruc and Fonte.
Open ControlsDo people think Lukaku can score similarly to Rooney up to the Jan WC?
Open ControlsWhat do we reckon the chances of Januzaj starting are?
My current midfield is:
Januzaj - Oscar - Ravel - Ramsey - Nasri
With Oscar unlikely to play and Ravel suspended, I need Januzaj to start. No FT.Open Controlsvorm
ivanonic, mertesacker, zabaleta
amalfitano, hazard(VC), cabaye, dyer
giroud, suarez(C), lukaku
sub:mignolet, jageilka, shawcross,colback..

Thinking of taking a 4 point hit for a defender as i've only got 10 playing this week. Seems like the only time to take a 4 point, would people agree?
Got 0.6m in the bank. Who shall I bring in for Faye?
