Dugout Discussion – Arsenal vs Hull City

2,261 Comments
Share

The Gameweek begins at the Emirates Stadium as Arsenal host Hull City with thousands of Fantasy Premier League armbands placed on Alexis Sanchez.

Owned by 35.3% of FPL managers and topping our Gameweek Captain Poll, the Chilean is handed the central striker role once again for the Gunners, having produced either a goal or an assist in ten of his last twelve Gameweeks.

However, Sanchez has provided just one double-digit return since his staggering 23-point haul at West Ham and he last scored big at the Emirates back in Gameweek 13 against Bournemouth.

His legion of backers will look for that trend to change in today’s outing, against a Hull City rearguard that arrives in North London on the back of successive clean sheets against Manchester United and Liverpool.

The scene is set for a classic attack vs defence encounter, with all eyes on Sanchez throughout.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    15 pointer for Alexis. That's a proper couch to hide behind as a non Ibra/Siggy/Jesus/Haz owner.

    So annoying, first a stupid handball goal then a penalty given to him. Does not deserve the 3 bonus points. Sanchez sucks! haha. Siggy better get himself a brace or more for me tomorrow.

        omfg, it's sarcasm and a 'sanchez sucks' as in he's hurt me for not captaining. But his goals were cheap today in fairness.

    As a Sanchez captainer this obviously has shades of Watford all over again.

    BTW love the idea of a Sanchez assist being denied by a handball...only to result in more points through the pen.

      Was much more promising in first half and more than justified capt choice. Arsenal / Sanchez woeful in second half. Got away with it big time.

    Sanchez non-captainers - still a long way to go. I own Sanchez (non-captained) and am happy with his haul. Now I need others to deliver starting with Ibra.
