FPL Captain Picks For Gameweek 10
The way Erling Haaland has started his Premier League career gives us the same problem we experienced last season with Mohamed Salah: a perma captain, at least for now!
Game week twelve should be fun as managers will be forced into a change, but for this weekend, the Norwegian tops the bill.
Erling Haaland
What can we say that hasn’t already been said?
At his present rate, Haaland will score 71 goals if he plays every minute in the league, and he would hit three figures (102) across all competitions. Phenomenal stuff.
But it does make things quite dull, and you wouldn’t back against Haaland breaking more records with his fourth consecutive hattrick at The Etihad versus a poor Southampton defence.
He is top for predicted points and has the best odds of returning, with a 79 per cent chance of grabbing another goal.
Callum Wilson
Newcastle have been bubbling under the surface for a while, and the win at Craven Cottage was the performance and outcome they had threatened for some time.
And now, with a host of appealing fixtures, the Magpies should be backed through until the winter shutdown.
Previously, results weren’t reflective of how the team had performed, but Wilson’s return could change all that, and he is one of my fantasy premier league transfers this week.
The 3-3 draw with Champions Manchester City in August showed a team with lots of potential, and in Wilson, the side has an incredibly clinical striker who could make his way into Gareth Southgate’s World Cup squad if he stays fit.
