    Not necessarily , Rooney is in great form

    Indeed but Everton are alot more solid than Norwich, don't have Rooney but i would still go Suarez if i did.

    If RVP is back this may effect Rooneys returns

    Even though I think Rooney will perform big v Everton, Suarez v Norwich is just too tasty a prospect to say no to. He just enjoys playing against them.

    I love that Howson stays in the poll for Liverpool away, I stuck him in as a slightly more acceptable option to Turner for the Palace game :pac:

    Got to be Suarez although Rooney has at least made me consider things for more than a second.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,142 ✭✭✭G1032


    Suarez.

    Or Ramsey. Oh, wait a minute, I don't have.............


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    Captaincy is moot this weekend. 90% of people will pick Suarez.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    Suarez or walcott for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,200 ✭✭✭hots


    No Suarez so will be a Ramsey punt I think and cheering on Norwich!

    Why didn't anyone vote Aguero?

    City are away to WBA who are a good side and City aren't playing well away.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,687 ✭✭✭Danger781


    I'm shocked at the lack of love for Aguero.

    Anyway, guess I pick Suarez.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    Was thinking Aguero ahead of Ramsey, only based on Hulls performance against Liverpool. But then they were playing Liverpool, and Arsenal will be at home.

    Knowing my luck, I'll switch to Ramsey, he'll be rested, will play the last 15 minutes, maybe scoring one, whilst Aguero gets a hat trick.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,675 ✭✭✭HighClass


    Ramsey, Suarez or Rooney.

    Decisions, decisions, decisions..


  • Registered Users Posts: 7 Suffocate


    Giroud, Gerrard or Rooney, lads?

    Need to choose one of them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 987 ✭✭✭ekevosu


    I thought Liverpool were woeful against Hull and Suarez was very quiet as a result but people obviously know something I don't as I had picked Aguero as captain for this week (like last week unfortunately) but switched to Suarez now...hope it works. Based on stats though, Aguero rarely has a bad week twice in a row.

    LOL.... :rolleyes:

    This would be Ozil that has played 4 games at home and averaged 9.5 points in each of those games?
    The Ozil that is playing for the league leaders against Hull at home, the Ozil that you could argue will only get better as he settles in the English game, and the Ozil that bagged 11 points in his last away game....

    Can't believe how he much he has been transferred out this GW.
    If he was being transferred to Walcott maybe, but it's a strange one.

    I think a lot of people are looking at Ozils total points and forgetting that he wasn't around for the first 3 GW's.

    Have him since day one. (that he was available obv)

    He is leading the premiership with 7 assists even though he has played 3 games fewer than most.

    Season Keeper. The LAST person I would transfer out. At home he is a beast.

    If Suarez wasn't playing at home and wasn't due a few goals I'd defo captain him. I captained him the week he got two goals and and assist and climbed 200K places.

    Nice work, I captained him at home to Southampton when Aguero & Suarez were up against the stiff defenses of Spur and Everton, that reallyy worked out :( ... I'd have no problem going with him for most home games.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,668 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Ozil will be a season keeper for me too in all likelihood. Am tempted to captain him this week as my rival will captain Suarez who I have too but torn between being sensible and seeking out the differential.

    Whatever about him accumulating bucket loads of points, surely he's not good enough to get a hattrick a full day in advance of his game

    He is good though. He just might be able to pull it out of the bag.

    They also said his form would die off..

    You just don't know with Ramsey..


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    Im very close to taking a big risk and giving Walcott the armband. It could really blow up in my face if wenger doesn't start him and suarez runs amok though. Do any arsenal fans reckon he could start up front to give giroud a breather?

    I wouldn't be surprised to see Ozil or Ramsey rested tonight.

    Gonna go with the quo and pick Suarez

    I have a funny feeling both will be rested tonight, I wouldn't be as confident for tomorrow night though! !

    Taking a chance with Walcott.

    Yes of course,

    I'll think one or possibly both will be rested tomorrow night...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,675 ✭✭✭HighClass


    Going to take a chance and go with Ramsey. If he comes through and Suarez plays another dud it would be a big points gain.

    I am serious...and don't call me Shirley.

    Best case scenario the both play great and get 2 goals+ each.

    Worst case scenario Suarez plays amazing and Ramsey is rested for most of the match. If that happens I have Rooney & Aguero to make up the difference I lost by captaining Ramsey over Suarez.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,709 ✭✭✭✭Cantona's Collars


    Luis Suarez has scored seven goals in his last three league games against Norwich, with four of them coming from outside the box.
    Of Suarez’s seven goals against Norwich City, just one has been scored at Anfield. The other six came in two games at Carrow Road (two hat-tricks).

    Suarez could realistically get you 30 points as captain (2 goals plus 3 BP), Ramsey potentially 2 if rested. Take a look at Aguero's ownership percentage, it's huge. So you're then left hoping Rooney scores about 6 just to break even on those who had Suarez as captain.

    It's madness tbh, and even if Ramsey does outscore Suarez it's still a bad call. If you have Suarez, you captain him, simples.

    So I have Ramsey, Giroud, Rooney, and Aguero.

    Major decisions.

    Giroud and Ramsey are very likely to get rotated or rested this week, as they then have 3 very tough games..

    Rooney against Everton - Who are tied at the top for most clean sheets this season..

    If it was me - I'd likely captain Aguero.. It's an extremely rare thing to see Aguero have two bad weeks in a row.. ;)

  • Registered Users Posts: 436 ✭✭WealthyB


    Even if you've major points to recoup on others in your league this isn't the time for gambling with your captain (yet). If you have Suarez you have to captain him


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts

    would love to myself but I think Im going to bottle it and stick with suarez.

    He was my first choice to be honest, and on that, I think I will close my fantasy league tab till after tonights match. Only opening to see if starting Morrison ahead of Bacuna was worth the risk.
