Seriously considering Sané (C) #GW12;
– Nailed that left side down in this 433 system ??
– 36pts in the last 4 GWs ?
– Last 3 match-ups between the two have seen 13 goals ?
– City on fire ?
– Of the 5 games he's returned in, all 5 have seen 10 or more pts ⚡️? #FPL

We did some in depth analysis last week on captaining City players.
⚠️ICYMI – earlier this week we looked at whether you can consider captaining a City player….https://t.co/0yG9hGEMIF

The community can put together a convincing argument for Kane.
Harry Kane
▪️Fully rested
▪️Playing away
▪️Against a weak defenceFor me, he is the only captain option this week.

Morata is another favourable choice.
I own Kane & Salah but I'm captaining Morata for GW12. Here's why:
1⃣ WBA are AWFUL right now. Like, *really* bad.
2⃣ Evans/McAuley/Brunt played 180 mins in demoralizing INT games.
3⃣ Think he'll be a bit of a differential pick vs likes of Kane/Lukaku/Salah.#fpl ? pic.twitter.com/OCGrnyOtWh— #FPL Penguin (@FPL_Penguin) November 16, 2017

It’s a classic case of Sword v Shield for many.

? WOW! Kane vs Lukaku captain (based on those stats) is going to be a sticky one this weekend… https://t.co/dtt91tY1xh

The general conclusion is that we’re spoilt for choice.
Some awesome captain choices this GW. Any of the following are great picks IMO:
Kane, Lukaku, Morata, Hazard, Salah, Richarlison, Aguero, Jesus…Zaha ?
Going to be a gameweek with varied scores! #FPL pic.twitter.com/lo2o40hU2l
