Best FPL captain this week (Gameweek 9)
Erling Haaland (Manchester City, £14.7m)
The opposition doesn't even matter when a player is in the form that Erling Haaland is in. Villa Park is one of the toughest places to earn all 3 points in the Premier League, but Haaland is currently in a league of his own and Aston Villa must be wary of the threat he possesses. He leads the Premier League scoring charts at the moment with 11 goals, 5 more than the second placed Antoine Semenyo at 6 goals. Without a doubt, our pick for best FPL captain this week.
Nick Woltemade (Newcastle United, £7.4m)
Nick Woltemade is an excellent shout for best FPL captain in Gameweek 9 due to his excellence form in the league so far and Fulham not being at their very best right. The game is also taking place at home, and Newcastle will be coming from an excellent 3-0 win over Benfica in the Champions League. The German striker also seems to be improving with each passing game, and also adapting to the pace and style of the Premier League. A really attractive captaincy pick.
Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United, £8.9m)
When Manchester United plays well, Bruno Fernandes is an FPL monster who could end scoring you insane returns. Considering how good Manchester United and Bruno Fernandes were against Liverpool, that too at Anfield, there are high expectations that they will be excellent against Brighton at Old Trafford. Choosing Bruno Fernandes as your FPL captain pick for this week will undoubtedly be a risk, but that could end up as an absolute masterstroke if luck favours you.
Antoine Semenyo (Bournemouth, £8.1m)
If you include more than just goals and several aspects of the game, Antoine Semenyo has arguably been the best player in the Premier League so far. He is the primary reason why Bournemouth are 3rd in the league right now, with Semenyo contributing to 9 goals in just 8 Premier League games. Bournemouth will face Forest next at home, Semenyo's outstanding form means he is undoubtedly a unique option as one of the best FPL captain picks for this week.
Viktor Gyökeres (Arsenal, £9.0m)
Viktor Gyökeres showed us against Atlético Madrid that all he needed was 3 minutes to prove himself to be an elite striker, which was the time taken for him to score a brace against Diego Simeone's side. Now he has the much needed confidence that was missing recently, and that could mean the beginning of a great goalscoring run. Thus, Gyökeres is another great player that we are choosing in our best FPL captain picks for Gameweek 9.
