i was a bit disappointed with my week - but only as i made the wrong captain choice - i captained Antonio and he should have had a good week against Brentford - but they are on a roll. Salah got me some good points, and I should have left him as captain -
but my stand out was Tim Krul in goal
I've always rated him as a good keeper, and being in newly promoted Norwich - i thought he was a good bet as a) hes cheap, and b) will be very busy in goal -
keepers lose points for letting in goals, but gain points for saves - so an average keeper will earn average points, a busy keeper will repay the goals he lets in with points for saves. However - he's been letting in too many goals so far this season - its a fine line to get right and i was waiting for him to come good
BUT - this weekend he got a clean sheet against burnley and did 5 saves, and earned bonus - 9 points for him!
Ronaldo only played half an hour (likely rested because he had a Champions league game in the week) - one thing to look out for is rotation - during busy weeks the big teams that compete in other comps mid week have enough players to rotate and rest their key players in games deemed less important. this sometimes influences my captain choice.
