Playing Austin away at West Ham. Their defence has been awful. Austin to score one and get an assist.

Of course it could all go horribly wrong. Playing in a work H2H league against a guy playing Capoue so high stakes!

If he blanks tonight might just sell him to end the pain ....

Like most people he's been on my bench for all his goals this season. Picked him for the first time this week and he's keeping Gibson and his 9 points out of the team !!!

I wonder which percentage of Capoue owners are playing him this week. Is such a stat easy to locate?

100% of me is playing him. Why wouldn't I? Benched Alli too often early on last season before the penny dropped - it's not price, it's performance. Ok, it may not last, so why not get it while it's going?

After the Hornets' horrible display tonight, the Mighty Capoue has a bigger chance of leaving my team than becoming my fourth midfielder.

I'm sure his bubble will burst but if he were a big name nobody would be panicking over one bad game.

This week other than my Citeh trio (& McArtur on the bench) my entire squad blanked so why get upset about Capoue any more than the other 11 players?

He was a waste of less money this week than Everyone else

idk what is the problem, capoue should be treated as any other midfielder, I'll play him every time he's healthy & in form

Watford showed they can score against everyone (UTD, ARS, CHE, WHU) so it doesn't make any influence on Capue's performance as long as he plays in this box2box position which involves him in Watford's attack

That's my problem with him. His points are great, but his performances have been very average.

I have him, it was more as enabler to get Aguero back in.

Now am I on my wildcard I think I will ditch him - I will find the extra money for Snodgrass who I think is a much better prospect.

Ah, maybe I wasn't sufficiently accurate. It's his FPL performance I was referring to, for which FPL points are a good metric. I'm not too fussed one way or the other about his performance for Watford in the (non-fantasy) Premier League (not being a Watford fan). Anyway, this is far harder to measure, and probably an inferior metric as far as FPL performance goes. Sorry for the confusion - I sometimes forget the high standards of terminological exactitude that FISO demands.

Pretty torn between him and Snodgrass this week. Probably 60/40 in favour of Snoddy right now. AOA is also a faint consideration.

Looking at Wiki he's scored much fewer goals than I thought he had. Probably because he's classed as a defensive midfielder. More was classed as that:
