Early moves to avoid price drops. -4 Maddison, Udogie, and Haaland out for Bowen, White, and Ferguson.

#

Captaincy likely to change. Feel free to recommend a player or give a reason for one

I’m still in the Haaland camp.

#

Salah. Highest xG

#

Captain that is

tough cliff
#

i would lowkey keep ferugson cap

#

could be big

crystal ridge
#

Could be blank

tough cliff
#

ye thats not a reason not to captain someone

#

literally anyone could be a blank

#

the risk here seems pretty worth it

crystal ridge
#

What reason is there to c him then

tough cliff
#

because its a major differential

#

and he has a great fixture

#

to potentially gets g/a

crystal ridge
#

Anything can be a major differential. If op is feeling risky then by all means

tough cliff
#

no it cant tho

#

lol

#

random doesnt = differential

#

ferguson isnt a random captain pick

#

hes a differential captain pick

crystal ridge
#

Neither is any other of his mid/forwards

tough cliff
#

theres no reason to assume he wont return

#

logically

tough cliff
#

but just captaining a random player doesnt mean its differential there has to be reason going into it

#

saka is a differential captain rn for example

crystal ridge
#

Most players in a starting 11 is not "any random player"

tough cliff
#

wdym?

#

for example dos santos isnt a logical differential captain choice

#

fernandes and hojlund however i would argue are

crystal ridge
#

A starting 11 will already have mostly viable players where anyone can haul

#

Minus defenders usually

tough cliff
#

would u captain glimour?

#

To say Ferguson is random is a bit far. Brentford aren't a bad defense. Chelsea definitely aren't a bad defense

crystal ridge
#

Salah is home as well

wraith holly
#

Chelsea have conceded goals for playing a more attacking way but I would suggest the defense is strong.
The argument for Salah is valid, Liverpool and Brighton are both great attacking teams but Salah is far more consistent

#

The flip side is that Brentford are a league above Sheffield utd

crystal ridge
#

Differentials are differentials for a reason. High risk (potential) high reward

wraith holly
#

Yes but that doesn't change if a player is likely or not to return in a gw and it doesn't make Ferguson random. Differential yes

#

Ofc

crystal ridge
#

Its literally just a question of risk management

#

Salah is lower risk

wraith holly
#

For sure and is why I was leaning that way. Ferguson was just the fun pick

#

I think in the end just having Ferguson is enough of a differential. So Salah captain is likely
