FPL captain

Even though time is running out to submit your Gameweek 29 teams, the FPL community is still split over captaincy. Double Gameweek participants like Mohamed Salah, Harry Kane and Son Heung-min will likely dominate post-deadline figures. Although Trent Alexander-Arnold outscores Salah fairly often. Then there are maverick candidates that only play once such as Kevin De Bruyne and Raheem Sterling.

With this in mind, here is a summary of the best FPL captain content that’s out there.

VIII – FPL Chubbs

There is also a strong case for captaining a Liverpool defender, as said by FPL Chubbs.

A clean sheet this DGW could be a MEGA haul for Trent. 12 points for him last time out vs West Ham, if he can replicate that twice in this double that’s 48 captaincy points!???? Are we getting carried away a bit? Possibly. Is he capable? He certainly is. pic.twitter.com/57HZP6wxbc
