Dugout Discussion

Dugout Discussion – Arsenal versus Swansea

Gameweek 36 comes to its conclusion tonight as Arsenal host Swansea at the Emirates. After a polished performance at Hull last Monday, the Gunners have now won nine of their last ten league outings, with only a goalless draw against Chelsea temporarily slowing their momentum.

With a double Gameweek against United and Sunderland just around the corner, Fantasy managers are afforded further opportunity to scout Arsene Wenger’s main men this evening.

Alexis Sanchez served up a second double-figure return in four league outings with a brace against the Tigers to persuade over 144,000 FPL managers to snap up his services ahead of this one. The Chilean isn’t the only one worth considering in an attack that looks full of Fantasy potential right now – up top, Olivier Giroud has seven strikes in the last nine, whilst Aaron Ramsey, Mesut Ozil and Santi Cazorla are also jousting for our attention. The Welshman has recovered from a knock sustained at the KC and will surely be set for significant investment on the back of three 10+ hauls in his previous six.

Garry Monk’s men have been in decent form, too. The Swans have won their last two matches since switching to 4-2-3-1, though with Nelson Oliveira missing out through injury tonight, the visitors are without a recognised striker in their starting line-up.

    Got Ospina and Alexis, backed Alexis to score first, he misses a sitter then Ospina lets in a sitter. I am running so badly in FPL recently that this was destiny. 🙁

  14. MMN
    • 10 Years

    Really regretting that Fab > Ozil. Coulda really used 2 transfers this week to get Sanchez in.

    One of the best weeks of the season for me but my 2 transfers in disappointed ... Caz & Ozil. 🙁

  15. HuttonDressedasLahm

    1. Camp No No

  17. Hibbo

    The battle for 2nd, 3rd and 4th is such a pile of shite.

    Who cares.

  18. Camp No No
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    To be honest, as long as Sanchez blanks, I take this result.

    1. TheCurseOfRaheem
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      This.

  19. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Hmm, so that FT will either go to Gomez or Graham now. No way I'm getting more Arsenal players in.

    Fabianski 9 saves!

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      He's been brilliant!

  21. Bubz
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Probably going to go down in rank with 3 Arsenal players having played, due to autosubs. Unbelievable.

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      No you won't. Relax

      1. Bubz
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        Why not?

  22. Pedram
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Well that was a anti climax

    Though i was gonna break the 100pts barrier

  23. Gaztafari
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years

    Garry Monk next Arsenal manager?

  24. JayBomb
    • 12 Years

    As a Koscielny owner I am hurting right now. That clean sheet and bonus would have put me top of my ML. Ye just can't trust the Arsenal defence.

    1. Camp No No
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Thank you! You who already brought Kos in make me feel immediately better.

  25. Greenbackbøøg…

    Arsenal haven't been programmed to finish higher than 4th evidently

    1. chinmusic
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      They will finish higher this season

  26. FPL Maldini
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Sanchez still a good swap for Hazard?

    1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Probably as Haz might not even play.
