I'd fancy Salah if I still had him, but most likely to be Kane.

Kane (C) Sterling (VC) could've easily hit big against SOU so its got to be Kane.

I don't have Kane so I'm having a difficult time deciding between:

Aubameyang vs. SOU (A)
Sterling vs. EVE (H)

Wildcard: Felipe Anderson vs. FUL (A)

What do you think?

I've captained Kane at home to Burnley the last two seasons in a row, and both times he blanked in frustrating low-scoring games. Will this be the year he finally destroys them?

Blimey, that has reminded me of the match when he seemed to be playing Centre Back and I kneejerked him out and he then when on to start scoring again...

Probably. Although I believe there are some secret stats that show we're no worse than we were last season, so maybe not.

It's gotta be 'Arry. The stats suggest he's coming into fine fettle and he usually turns it on this time of season.

What's the reason behind his excellent away record? Why should we think it's anything else than a pure coincidence?

Don't have Kane. I'm holding out that he's not actually coming into form. Only 3 shots against Southampton, fewer touches than Lloris. I know it's going to come back and bite me but I'm cherry picking my stats to make me feel better.

Probably Sterling for me. Everton are not pulling up any trees defensively.

Believe what you want Finisher1, I really couldn't care less.
He's away to SOTON and Auba has performed well away and probably won't play midweek.

Looks a good captaincy option, I wouldn't be surprised if he's top scorer.

City have no Dilva so Sterling's service might not be as good.

What is Aguero doing in the poll, he isn't even fit? I also think that including Liverpool defenders against United is folly, you really need a very strong CS chance to consider captaining a defender and that game isn't one. Doherty and Laporte would probably have a higher points potential this weekend than either of the Liverpool pair. I think people have been carried away by a series of lucky Liverpool CSs. :?

Anyway, Kane(c) for me, seems a self-evident pick really.

Ballsy, I own Son and I'm concerned he might get the bank for a rest.
