Monitor – Alexis Sanchez

With a single goal in his last six league appearances, Alexis Sanchez’s debut season in the Premier League seems in danger of grinding to a halt. After serving up 12 strikes and seven assists in the opening 21 Gameweeks, the Chilean’s displays made him a must-have for Fantasy managers but, in spite of Arsenal’s late surge up the table, his recent output has been minimal.

There’s no disputing the fact that Sanchez’ downturn has coincided with the return to action of Mesut Ozil. The German has started each of the last seven Gameweeks and managed two goals and five assists over that period, whilst Olivier Giroud has developed a source of consistency which has harvested six strikes and a trio of assists in his previous eight outings.

Despite his price of 11.4 in the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) game, Sanchez is still the third most popular midfielder – only Eden Hazard and Raheem Sterling currently sit in more sides. With some of his 30% ownership starting to scour the market for alternatives, we delve into the data to asses his displays over the two time frames in order to ascertain just what has gone wrong.

                Lack of motivation mainly but i'll put it down to bad luck (except when I did great - pure skill) 😆

    Do you think it's worth me sorting Foster or Haidara out? Panti can play in goal until the blank when Foster hopefully will be back, and I think my defence can cope with Haidara benched until he comes back.

    I have 2 FTs, so want to use at least one of them.

    Pantilimon
    Bellerín / Terry / Bertrand
    Eriksen / Hazard / Silva / Cazorla
    Kane / Austin / Agüero

    Foster / Boyd / Dawson / Haidara

    1. Scab
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I would say Haidara as Bellerin is prone to some rotation

    2. Hasselbaink Forever - Defoe…
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Haidara to Toby?

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks guys.

        Do you think it's worth going for a Villa defender? Or should it be Toby all the way?

        1. Hasselbaink Forever - Defoe…
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          I would go Toby, look at Villa's fixture 32/33/34 you'll be wanting them straight out again.

    3. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'd ditch Foster, I wouldn't want to be relying on Panti. Maybe Ospina or Forster? Or Guzan for the double? (Not a huge fan of that one myself).

        Brilliant. Thanks for all your help guys.

  3. Scab

    Which would you rather have for the Chelsea DGW?

    A) Terry + Ivan + Haz

    B) Ivan + Haz + Costa

    1. Kings of Lyon ★
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      B fo rme

    2. MITRO'S ON FIRE
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      B

    3. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      THIS is the big question

      Was all set on the Ivan one

      Now torn

      Ivan one easy to get (no wc)
      Costa potential for captain that week?

      I dont know!

    4. Stykes
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      B, I'd say.

    5. Shifty
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      A with Sturridge over Costa if DGW34 has Liverpool. Affordable?

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        This is what I'm doing and have had planned

        1. Shifty
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          same. Trying to fit in Skrtel + Ivan + Terry + Hazard + Sturridge + Giroud is a headache though....might have to sacrifice Kun.

          1. FPL Blow-In
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Haha my exact thinking also! I have the 3Che boys already. I will be sacraficing Kun. If Pool have the DGW in 34 will they have a blank in gw33 also? This throws a curveball in my plans as I wanted to bench 3 Ars in GW 33

            1. Shifty
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 1 month ago

    6. Spencer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      B

    7. Scab
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Im honestly leaning towards A.

      I feel Terry or Ivan can outscore Costa easily

    8. Hasselbaink Forever - Defoe…
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      So Terry or Costa, think there's more upside to Costa

    9. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      the BIGGEST end-of-season question.

      B looks slightly better. Change Ivan to Tery and it'll be all square.

      For that reason i think I'll go Ivan JT Haz now, and decide to change Terry to Costa later or not.

    10. meerlight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      B, if costa can avoid a yc

  4. S.Kuqi

    Need to bench one. Care to help.

    Zouma (hul)
    Koscielny (new)
    Clyne (BUR)

    1. MITRO'S ON FIRE

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years

        Cheers. Currently leaning that way.

    2. Stykes
      • 11 Years

      Rose 1st sub for me.

    3. FPL Blow-In

  5. MITRO'S ON FIRE

    Anyone know the site STICKY MOCKWELL 42 used to get the charts here? http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2015/03/11/who-still-has-a-chance-to-win-fpl-this-season/

    I remember some new poster posted a link about his site (used for the graphs above) but forgot to bookmark it.

  8. MITRO'S ON FIRE
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Now that Arsenal are out of the Champions League can we expect their match to have a new date set ahead of this week's deadline?

    1. James Milner 42
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      GW31 potentially

  9. James Milner 42
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    How does this sound for free?

    PVA > Ivanovic

    Sanchez > Mane

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I was planning to go

      PVA > Ivanovic

      Sterling > Mane

      before and got many support.

      Now I'm probably keeping PVA and ditching Rose instead. Maybe you should do it.

    2. meerlight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      That's precisely what I'm looking at for this week. Haven't made the move yet, but unless anything major happens, they will be my transfers.

  10. Jimjam
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Forster, Hamer
    Terry, Clyne, Dawson, Hutton, Vergini
    Sanchez, Hazard, Silva, Eriksen, Boyd
    Ageuero, Giroud, Kane

    2FT, 0.5

    Vergini -> Naughton, save other FT.

    Sound wise?

    1. Hasselbaink Forever - Defoe…
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Very wise

    1. NABIL - FPL otai

      no

    2. Kings of Lyon ★

      Not one little bit. I prefer not knowing.

    3. meerlight

      not really, no. It's how much sense the poster talks that counts, i.e. reputation, not rank.

    4. Bolivian Seaman
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      FPL is guessing, and a lot of ranking is luck. Siggy away to man united in the first game of the season was luck, silva's 17 point haul was luck. Zabaleta getting 0's over christmas was bad luck

  18. FPL Wisdom

    Hate to ask a GTG but GTG?

    Pantilimon
    Ivanovic/Bertrand/Rose
    Silva/Sigurdsson/Hazard/Eriksen
    Giroud/Agüero(V)/Kane(c)

    (Foster!/Bellerín/Naughton/Walters!)

    Begovic
    Terry - Clyne - Kosc
    Moses - Eriksen - Hazard - Alexis
    Giroud - Aguero - Kane

    I have .5 in the bank but honestly don't know what I can do with it on 1FT.
