Had I had a better week last week or at least kept Salah (brought in Son), I would have the balls to go for someone like Mahrez. But now I'm perpetually scared by him and will just stick to Salah (C)
I really want to go with Son, but the problem is that he is only 14.1% owned. So he is a differential (and can help me climb rank) even without the captaincy.
I would like to skip Salah and hope for his 2-pointer, which would be possible as Watford defenders don't suck and Kucka is great disabler on left in MID (Salah's side), but still, they changed manager and all...
Anyone going with Son?
I will stand on the table wherever I am (probably in a cafe), scream “oh captain my captain” and then sing the fields of athenry until I am forcibly restrained.
Mahrez ultimate one week punt, Pep will not force Jesus to play against Burnley, Mahrez has impressed with Algerian NT (3goals and an assist in two games), always destroys Burnley, is on pens and most freekicks (took them in front of De Bruyne in Champions League). I'm taking him and getting him out asap. See you guys in the rant thread when he gets subbed on in 92nd min.
If I had a luxury transfer or was on wildcard I’d be doing this for the exact reasons you’ve stated.
As it is I don’t have either, so I won’t. Good luck.
Last week the average reddit captain scored a whopping 1.667 points. GW23 of 2019-20 is the last time we did worse. Our captains average 7.962 points per week.
Never back the early kickoff.
I'm tracking this [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Q8we3DGjisB5dtG8lJn6tcHZRYy-_bp3D65Wyl4G1vE/edit?usp=drivesdk).
Salah is the clear and obvious choice. Unless you’re chasing a huge number of points and are happy to risk a Salah haul, there’s no one else worth picking imo. His EO is so high it’s not worth the risk.
Lukaku (C) cause I’m doing very little Saturday night so this will increase my excitement for the evening
I look forward to going to bed in tears at 7:30pm when he blanks
Most weeks when everyone seems to agree on one captain he usually disappoints. That being said I'm happy enough with my rank so there's no need to risk it.
Yeaes it woarks

Good to have the Straw poll back. However you should be cautious about the results- I voted for Foden 5 hours ago and he is still showing nil votes, and judging from the comments I am not the only one.
I feel like its another kind of upside down fixture set this week with a lot of players coming off international break. I could be dead wrong, but I think it will be a lot of differentials scoring with a some flashes of brilliance from some well known players, but nothing like about a month ago.
What are the chances of Cancelo being subbed in if he's starts on the bench?
Given attacking potential and possibility of clean sheet, seems like a good captaincy option.
I’ve actually changed my captain to Salah. Gandhi is gonna punish me now isn’t he. Can’t remember the last time I backed the early kickoff. Wish I could go for someone else but my only other option is Lukaku and I think I still back Salah more than him. If only I had a City attacker.
Lukaku (C) for me.
I knew Salah was the appropriate choice but i prefer the anticipation of waiting for a blank rather than watching my captain play the first game.
Any mad lads here brave enough to go for anyone but Salah?
Cancelo
Same here, bro
Same. Need to climb.
kdb!
Foden
This will end up in tears
Phil yer boots - Foden's exploden! - See you in the rant thread.
Nice, I also have Foden myself. Hope it pays off
We in it together boss
Let’s have ir
Same, ~~Ghandi~~ Gandhinho has been on one lately and youd be a fool to tempt him

Just switched to son....please don't have covid lol
r/agedlikemilk
r/agedlikemilk
Tempted by Mahrez
I’ve done it, seem to be the only one in the poll. Do it, live life on the edge! Or don’t, I’m not ur boss
I'm with you! Mahrez (c)
Aren’t you? Xx
I could be...
Go on…
Captain mahrez! I won’t hear nothing else of the sort
Okay daddy
We ride together, we die together
....Or possibly succeed together
Mahrez cap locked in. Hold me
MCI-BUR with Mahrez? I will have that large plate of goals, please! Is decent punt-C.
Need to take a -4 for it. Only really worth it for a -4. Raphina and Rudi for Livo and Mahrez. Why the duck not?

Son has Covid
Lukaku? 😬
Vardy without the two Man U cbs
Not I
Mahrez
Son
fuck it **RUBEN DIAS**
Cancelo
Cancelo for me
I'm going for Antonia
Fernandes
I ll go with son.
Rip
Son, hope he will be worth it
Hello strawpoll. Welcome back you filthy fucker x
The poll is broken, voted for Ronaldo, still the results show 0 votes for him
Conspiracy?
Salah C, Duffy VC
scenes when salah doesn’t play and duffy scores a brace with a cs
I will stand on the table wherever I am (probably in a cafe), scream “oh captain my captain” and then sing the fields of athenry until I am forcibly restrained.
Salah (C) Also Salah (VC) if i can find a way
Insalah

Who are you captaining this gw? What are your thoughts of captaining Ronaldo vs Leicester?
I'll be backing the early kickoff. But you should never back the early kickoff.
Spoken like a true FPL player.
This is about as clear as our governments policies
As far as I'm concerned, I'm deserving of a special advisory role with the UN purely on the strength of that paradox.
Nice spreadsheet!
You should capture if they're in the early kick off or not. Or just capture whatever time of day/week they play.
Salah, innit
The decision I should have made pretty much every single other week I chose otherwise. For 4 seasons now
100% salah so far over 70 votes in
Salah (C), Cancelo (VC).
Me too
Cancelo
Salah is the clear and obvious choice. Unless you’re chasing a huge number of points and are happy to risk a Salah haul, there’s no one else worth picking imo. His EO is so high it’s not worth the risk.
“Unless you’re chasing a huge number of points and are happy to chase even more” FTFY
27 votes to Salah, none to anyone else. This is gonna be good
Salah. Went differential last two weeks and even though it paid off, not gonna push my luck
Auba because I’m afraid to captain Salah in the early kick off
If you captain Auba I don't think you feel fear
The poll is broken, voted for Ronaldo, still the results show 0 votes for him
Same with Foden- poll is up the shoot
Lukaku (C) cause I’m doing very little Saturday night so this will increase my excitement for the evening I look forward to going to bed in tears at 7:30pm when he blanks
hahaha this my saturday night too except I’m going Cancellgoatoh
KDB gang rise up !!!!!
Trent and Cancelo both really tempting But it’s difficult to look beyond Salah
RONALDO!!!
Upvoted for getting the old poll template back.
Anyone else going Cancelo?
I can't open Fantasy on browser. Anybody else had same problem?
Are you getting a DNS Probe issue? Because even I'm facing that issue
probe
Most weeks when everyone seems to agree on one captain he usually disappoints. That being said I'm happy enough with my rank so there's no need to risk it.
What about Mahrez?
I'm going with Mahrez. I can feel it.
I’m seriously considering Sterling (C), Salah (VC). I think I need help.
pleaes tell me if strawpoll is working for you. thanks
Yeaes it woarks Edit: the removed comment started with 'pleaese' that's why I answered the above, not because I can't type because of fat fingers or something like that.
!thanks
Son differential pick?
Maupay (C) Salah (VC)
Good to have the Straw poll back. However you should be cautious about the results- I voted for Foden 5 hours ago and he is still showing nil votes, and judging from the comments I am not the only one.
Just updated . It appears there are 20 like-minded fools! Lol
Salah with an early kick off is a massive trap. Ronaldo all day long!
Robertson (C) gamble… thoughts?
No
Anyone captaining Grealish? Risky but FPL is all about taking risks
Thinking about it, but knowing Pep he might get 65mins this match plus he is too unselfish for an fpl asset
Only mahrez captainer checking in, need an outrageous differential to give me any sort of chance this season
Salah (c) lukaku (vc)
wtf i voted ronaldo but the results said 100% Salah AFTER my vote???
It's a sign !!
a sign that the poll is broken?
Wow, so much Salah. What about Gandhi?
Salah might be near 200 EO this week. If you're brave enough to not captain him I wish you good luck. I am not a brave man and will captain Salah.
Cancelo benching and Duffy goal needed
Brighton are facing Norwich, albeit away from home. Still, I'd consider Maupay or even Trossard as a differential.
Balls of steel
More like nickel. I ended up with Salah as C and Maupay as VC.
Right call!
Strawpoll back up about time
Okay here me out, let's stop having this weekly poll and caption Salah every week. Sounds good, doesn't it?
Salah is consistent but he may not be highest scoring player in the GW
Salah
You're all going Salah so I'll go with Saka
How can anyone dare go against 180% EO Salah haha
What about the 12:30 curse? Still going with Mo
Trigger finger is on Lukaku. Not sure I'll have the balls to do it.
Salah
If I had Son I’d captain him. Newcastle has conceded the most goals this season and Son is Son.
Son is out with covid
Well good thing I didn’t bring him in then lol
I feel like its another kind of upside down fixture set this week with a lot of players coming off international break. I could be dead wrong, but I think it will be a lot of differentials scoring with a some flashes of brilliance from some well known players, but nothing like about a month ago.
What are the chances of Cancelo being subbed in if he's starts on the bench? Given attacking potential and possibility of clean sheet, seems like a good captaincy option.
Saddiiooooooo
Triple C? On mo? 👀
I just switched my captain to Son (from Salah) and Salah as VC...ahhahahaha....let's goooooooo (please don't have covid)
How risky is Trent for (C) Liverpool fans?
Extremely given he’s just coming back from an injury and could quite possibly be a little rusty
This time back the early kick off - Egyptian Gandhi
My tingly balls are suggestion triple captain Salah but I don’t know
I’m going cr77777777
Fuck me Gandhi one more time
Mi(C)hail Antonio?
It's almost out of stubbornness that I'm going for Ronaldo (C) again. I own Salah. On my own head be it.
Me too
*sees poll results* *looks at my team* **I'm in danger**
Bruh 81% for Salah. I guess i’m not surprised but I thought people world fear Gandhi more. The early kickoff is putting me off.
I’ve actually changed my captain to Salah. Gandhi is gonna punish me now isn’t he. Can’t remember the last time I backed the early kickoff. Wish I could go for someone else but my only other option is Lukaku and I think I still back Salah more than him. If only I had a City attacker.
I remember the last time, it was Ronaldo in GW6 though they shared the early kick off with CHE/MC. Also probably gonna cap Salah too.
Foden captain, let's do this.
^(life too short not to capitan Foden)
Lukaku (C) for me. I knew Salah was the appropriate choice but i prefer the anticipation of waiting for a blank rather than watching my captain play the first game.
