Question 1

Should I captain Gelhardt in Gameweek 8?

Accepted Answer

It depends - Gelhardt is a reasonable option but not the obvious armband choice this week.  Gelhardt's form is moderate at 4.5 pts/game over the last six gameweeks. Gelhardt faces Brentford (H) in Gameweek 8 - a workable fixture, neither easy nor particularly tough.  With only 0% ownership, Gelhardt 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, Gelhardt is not a captain recommendation this week unless your options are limited.

Should I transfer Gelhardt in before Gameweek 8?

Is Gelhardt worth £5.0m in FPL?
