    I feel very queasy all of a sudden. Disaster for me. Although I would say it's a bit of a surprising call. Soldado has started the last few games and as well as that himself and Kane are Spurs only for strikers. You'd have thought at home to Burnley they'd have stuck with two up top. Yaya's my vice captain so really need Soldado to come off the bench and score.

    I had Clichy this week too so a potential nightmare game week could be unfolding here.

    If Soldado doesn't play then your captaincy will switch to Yaya who scored 9 points today so if I were you I'd be praying that Pochettino keeps the Spaniard on the bench.

    EDIT: Ah just spotted when you posted this. :pac:

    You just know Soldado will come in for the last 30 seconds.

    It has seriously cross my mind on a couple of occasions to Captain Zabaletta. I almost certainly won't, but just so I can whinge about it when he gets a goal and CS I'm putting it on record!! :)

    Oh well.

    Just thankful RVP made it past 60

    Austin worked:D

    2 weeks in a row nailed it (last week Hazard).

    I wouldn't do it if I had Yaya or some well known United forward.
    Sometimes it is good if you can't follow the poll.

    Nice to be on a right track after 2-3 very average weeks. I am missing those green arrows so much. Even if it is for one night only I want to see them:D

    Finally got a captain call right with Austin.
    Pity I also decided it was time to ditch Cresswell (6) for Clichy (0).
    Can never seem to get everything right.

    You can't get everything right - there is always some player who blanks or gets a red card. You can't have them all.

    Having Austin with double points is good enough. Clichy transfer was a mistake but at least you had a player who made up for lost points;)

    leaning towards Sanchez at the moment. Austin is tempting but you just know WBA are going to park the bus. Liverpool are a right mess at the moment and i really do fancy Sanchez to score

    What'll actually happen is the total opposite to this I'd imagine.

    Both teams will be thinking that 3 points is definitely up for grabs in this one, so there's no hope whatsoever for bus parking. I'd say it'll be packed full of goals.

    Picked Yaya, but those other 2 make great cases for themselves ;)

    Then Dr. Bre pipes up with yaya being in the 12:45 kick off.... THANK YOU DR. BRE!

    this feels stupid but the only reason I don't want to captain Yaya is cos I hate captaining a player in the sat morn games! ha

    didnt notice he was in the saturday morning game. This changes everything!
    Rikand wrote: »
    The last time I captained a city player for the early morning game was Aguero in Gameweek 9 and I promised myself I would never captain anyone ever again for the 12:45 game.

    so I gotta find someone else to captain now :(

    Didn't Aguero score 4 in an early kick off this season?
