MAYBE

It depends - Donnarumma is a reasonable option but not the obvious armband choice this week.

  • Form: 4.5 pts/game over the last 5 gameweeks - moderate returns
  • Fixture: Liverpool (A) in GW6 - a tough assignment
  • Ownership: 7.5% - a genuine differential pick

Why Donnarumma may not be the best captain in Gameweek 6

The case for

  • Ownership: 7.5% makes him a genuine differential. A big return moves you up the overall rankings.

The case against

  • Form: only 4.5 pts/game over the last 5 gameweeks - returns have been below the level expected for a captain pick.
  • Fixture: Liverpool (A) in GW6 is a tough assignment - better-fixture alternatives exist this week.
  • Expected points: only 4.5 xPts projected for GW6 - stronger options are available.
  • Position: Donnarumma is a goalkeeper - captaincy ceiling is limited to clean-sheet, save and bonus points, well below what premium outfielders can deliver on a big day.
