Groß tops the list for Gameweek 6
FPL's own expected points put Groß, Schade and Bogle first, second and third. Groß is owned by 28.7% of managers. The best-rated pick owned by fewer than 10% is Bogle.
How to pick a captain
The captain scores double, so the pick is worth the most points of any decision in the week. Expected points are the starting point, not the answer. Two things change it.
Ownership. If most managers captain the same player, his points move everyone's score and nobody's rank. A lower-owned captain gains you rank when he hauls and costs you rank when he blanks.
Minutes. A doubt can play 60 minutes or none. FPL's news line is quoted above; check it close to the deadline, and see the fixture difficulty for who has the easier game.
