Question 1

Should I captain Ajer in Gameweek 1?

Accepted Answer

Probably not - there are stronger captaincy options available for Gameweek 1, but here is the case for Ajer.  Ajer has been out of form recently, averaging just 0.0 pts/game over the last 6 gameweeks. Ajer faces Spurs (H) in Gameweek 1 - a workable fixture, neither easy nor particularly tough.  With only 1% ownership, Ajer is a genuine differential. A big return here moves you up the overall rankings.  No injury concerns flagged at the time of writing.  With a tough fixture and modest expected points, Ajer is not a captain recommendation this week unless your options are limited.

Question 2

Should I transfer Ajer in before Gameweek 1?

Accepted Answer

It is worth considering, but the case is not as clear-cut as it might appear.  At £4.5m, Ajer has registered 0 goals and 2 assists this season for 76 points in total.

Question 4

Is Ajer worth £4.5m in FPL?
