Am I mad to be considering Morata?

Stoke apparently only have 1 fit senior CB available for the weekend.

Hey buddy, also captaining him.

Stoke lost to Bristol City midweek and they have an even more weakened defence vs Chelsea looking to put some pressure on United and City at the top.

Hazard should be back for this game.

I have Kane but WH is Spurs' bogey team. Could see a low scoring affair there; also trying to justify 12.5m here!

Jesus also an option but will make a 60 minute appearance and play on the wing so not ideal.

Alonso could also be an option. Thing is, people are looking toward Stoke vs United as a reference for Stoke's potential performance vs a top 4 team.

Am I delusional in thinking apart from Aguero/Lukaku, these 3 will score similarly?

https://www.reddit.com/r/FantasyPL/comm ... ameweek_6/

West Ham v Tottenham:
West Ham have defeated Tottenham 14 times in the Premier League; their highest tally of wins against a single opponent in the competition.

Tottenham have lost three of last four Premier League trips to West Ham (W1 D0 L3) and have failed to score in each of these three defeats. Indeed, Tottenham have lost their last two London derbies in the Premier League (0-1 v West Ham in May & 1-2 v Chelsea in August) - they haven't lost three in a row in the league since August 2005.

Tottenham are looking to win their opening three away games in a league season for the first time since 1991-92.

Harry Kane has scored five goals in his last five Premier League appearances against West Ham United. Overall, Kane has scored 19 goals in 28 Premier League London derbies for Tottenham



Manchester City v Crystal Palace:

Of players to have scored 10+ goals in Premier League history, Manchester City's current strike partnership have the two best minutes per goal ratios - Gabriel Jesus has scored a goal every 89 minutes on average, while Sergio Aguero's mins per goal ratio is 108 mins.



Stoke v Chelsea:

Mark Hughes will be facing Chelsea for the 24th time in the Premier League as a manager; he has lost more times (15) and conceded more goals (43) against the Blues than any other club.

Chelsea have won seven of their last eight Premier League away matches (W7 D0 L1), scoring at least two goals in six of these wins.

No Agureo and no Jesus for me. Have Kane, Alli and de Bruyne as decent options. I need to have a think about it.

You worried about Jesus playing 90 midweek? I brought Jesus in because I didn't have the funds for Aguero and I think their potential points are about the same anyway. People are overreacting to Aguero's hat trick. But the 90 mins in midweek make me very nervous about Jesus making a cameo against Palace.

No, he is a good pick. But that would also depend on the rest of your squad.

My captain choices have been horrific so far, total of 5 points gained from 5 game weeks

GW1 = Alonso v Burnley (h) = 0 extra points

GW2 = De Bruyne v Everton (h) = 2

GW3 = Lukaku v Leicester (h) = 0

GW4 = Sanchez v Bournemouth (h) =1

GW5 = Kane v Swansea (h) = 2

Today I am going for Aguero at home to palace so I recommend that nobody else does

I wouldn't worry too much about the captaincy yet. Most people have had a hard time so far. Apart from 13pts in GW1, I've had failures.

Going Kane this week. Expecting him and Aguero to score. Of course how many they each score will determine the level of contentment! What I guess I'm hoping is that with C.L. midweek then Chelsea at the weekend is that Pep takes off Aguero (possibly for Jesus) when City are 2 goals up.

I brought in Jesus this week with intention of captaining him, but his 90 mins in the Carry-on Cup has thrown that a wobbly. If I thought he was sure to start I would keep the faith. Do you think he will?

That's why I am thinking Kolathing, but I do think Jesus will get more starts than Kun, but about the same minutes.

Is TC Aguero unnecessarily risky at this stage of the season.

My captain choices have been awful so far, always missing hauls with Aguero (starting on the bench), Kane (Swans), Mane (sent off) and Lukaku (penalty miss).

I feel behind in my league now even though I actually think my team is pretty good hence the urge to use my TC and try to catch up. I must admit this is why I hate capt choice and still see TFF as the true FF game, it adds too much luck element to the game, don't get me wrong it's fun but highly frustrating.

Yep do it: then he gets another rest as Jesus bags a hat-trick 8-)

Had to go and make it first! Also a part of me was dreaming of big scores so didn't rush to change. It's now time to relax and enjoy the footy. Living in the Netherlands I get to watch the 3pm kick offs, which is Stoke - Chelsea today, should be interesting as a Hazard owner.

Captained Jesus, transfered Hazard in and changed Lukaku for Aguero... So far this GW sucks...
