After racking up 82 points in his last eight matches Jamie Vardy (£10.1m) is the top captain pick for Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 17, according to FPL expert Lee Bonfield.

Bonfield believes Vardy's home meeting with Norwich City makes him the best all-round armband contender, even with Sadio Mane (£12.3m) set to face bottom-club Watford.

"He's the safest of the picks for captaincy this weekend, due to form, fixtures and Norwich conceding goals for fun," Bonfield says.

"I think they've conceded at least two goals in each of their last five or six games, or something, so he is the standout, no doubt."
