Captain Call

Gameweek 11 captain: Haaland

The call on the house squad, filed before the deadline. Not your team, which is the only reason you're allowed to read it.

The case against
Palmer: Haaland projects 1.3 projected points more this week.

The room argued

Jimmy MacLeod

Man City at home to Fulham, strong favourites at 2/5, the book says give Haaland the armband and don't overthink the rest.

Luca Ferretti

The shape moves to 3-4-3, Jackson comes in, this is correct. You cannot leave a player projecting over five points on the bench when the structure supports him.

Klaus Brandt

The model says hold the transfers and accumulate the bank. Two free transfers sitting there is like money in the account earning interest, yes?

Dr. Rachel Okafor

Thomas is flagged at fifty percent. The file says forty-five projected minutes. He is third sub, which is exactly where a fifty-percent doubt belongs, but we confirm before deadline.

MacLeod, Ferretti and Brandt backed the hold and the shape change; Okafor flagged Thomas at fifty percent and pushed for bench clarity.
