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.

    Anyone considering dropping Sanchez next week as likely to miss gw 28 and not playing gw 26... 27 is Liverpool away... So really not much change out of him next 3 game weeks.... thoughts?

        You guys all have you're WC sitll? Cus for those like me who don't, it means planning correctly for double gam weeks..

        Also, why to Hazard if he blanks in 28 also? In the event all Premier league clubs make it through FA cup (Likely) then you still would do that?

          Swansea next.

          If all Prem teMs win in the Cup then it makes it easier as there's a much smaller pool of players to pick from, and even less that are actually worth owning.

      I am selling for sure.

      Can buy him back in the future cheaper if needs be.

      He stands to lose up to 0.5 or more by GW28 at least
