Gameweek 35 comes to its conclusion this evening as Hull welcome Arsenal to the KC Stadium. After a number of their relegation rivals won over the weekend, Steve Bruce’s side sit just one point clear of the drop zone despite clinching back-to-back victories over Palace and Liverpool in their double Gameweek 34.

The Tigers backline are seeking a third straight clean sheet after upping their resilience in the fight for survival, whilst Dame N’Doye owners will be looking for more of the same after the January signing bagged a brace against Palace in the previous round of fixtures.

Arsenal, meanwhile, will be eagerly assessed by Fantasy managers with one eye firmly on double Gameweek 37. Olivier Giroud has seven goals and an assist in the last eight rounds of fixtures, whilst Alexis Sanchez has three strikes and an assist in his previous four outings in all competitions – both looked poised for significant investment as Arsene Wenger’s side prepare for three home clashes and a trip to United in the final three Gameweeks.

Aaron Ramsey, Mesut Ozil and Santi Cazorla are also vying for our attentions in the centre of the park, whilst at the back, Laurent Koscielny and co. look to extend the series of displays which have seen the Gunners concede just three times in the last seven Gameweeks.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Best defender for 5.1 or under for these remaining weeks?

    1. Bolivian Seaman
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Maybe bellerin, maybe zouma

      1. Wouter
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Their game time is my worry, though.

    2. Sp0rting
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Sanchez or Ramsey.

      That's the only answer you'll get here tonight.

      1. Wouter
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Doing this to get Sanchez in alongside Ramsey, who I got in this GW. 😆

  2. gers23
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Is this a waste of 2 fts to get Sanchez?

    Sterling and Mignolet to 4.0 keeper and Sanchez?

    Means playing Myhill every week

  3. McSauce
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    3 Arsenal mids for DGW instead of Giroud or kosc?

    1. JAC THE CAT
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Yep

  4. Demí
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      1. Demí
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Did you log in as a male or female tonight?

        1. gravless
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          Just as I thought, you're not pretending.

        2. La Roja
          • 13 Years

    5. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Bingham was 11/8 still earlier on when the score was tied crazy really.

    6. Sp0rting
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Till the death mate.

    7. Numb
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Extra time and penalties tonight I think.

    8. Demí
      • 15 Years

      Cheers all

    9. Leaf

      Late night if they continue at this rate

  5. TheCurseOfRaheem
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone else find their decision making starts to get poor as MLs get tight towards the end of the season?

    1. Az
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      yep. fab --> sanchez is the first decision ive got right in weeks.

      i guess its because you try and second guess everyone, try to stay safe and dont play your natural game...

      1. TheCurseOfRaheem
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Wise words.

    2. andy85wsm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I'm analysing mini leagues more than ever as the season gets closer.

      For example I don't really want Giroud but know everyone in my mini league has him so it's tempting to just follow suit while leading

      1. TheCurseOfRaheem
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        I feel ya. I got in Giroud over Sanchez because my rival had Sterling. Felt safer selling Vardy than him even though my gut was saying sell Sterling. Gutted.

  6. JK - Cønt â­
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Has Wenger said anything yet?

    1. La Roja
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      He didn't see it apparently

      1. JK - Cønt â­
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        😛

  7. DV8R
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Is Reece Burke nailed on now? Played 2 full matches...

    1. JK - Cønt â­
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      nope, just playing due to injuries

  8. La Roja
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    So i had the exact cash for below for -4

    Sterling cesc skrtel out

    Sanchez Rambo wasilewski in

    Pulled the trigger

    1. Az
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      solid

  9. henryleeds
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Skrtel + Kane> PVA + Benteke is a no brainer right?

  10. The Enlightener
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Kyle Martino, some cheeseball pundit here in the States, said he thinks when Arsenal are at their best, they are better than Chelsea. lmfao............

    1. Taffer
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      they are...did you watch the 0-0?

      1. The Enlightener
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        No they aren't. And, yes. I watched that game.

    2. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      That's hard to say, Chelsea at their best are much better at the back

      1. The Enlightener
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Yep.

      2. The Enlightener
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Tougher. More organized. Better players all around...etc, etc.

    3. Ricky - it doesn\'t ta…
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Bloody Americans

      1. The Enlightener
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        I know, right! 🙂

  11. Tony Yeboah
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    that 3rd goal was incredible.....ramsey the real deal

    1. Jar Jar Dinks
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      purple patch

  12. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Which combination should i get?

    a) Sanchez, Cazorla and Kos (sacrificing Haz)

    b) Ozil, Kos and PvA

  13. Flynny
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Sterling to Ramsey
    Or
    fabregas to Sanchez.

    Main rival 10 behind with Ramsey.....

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Sterling out

  14. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Arsenal are real title contenders next season.

    1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      if they sort key positions out

    2. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      And Bournemouth

  15. _Freddo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    I think tonight has sealed which 3 Arsenal players will be the main ones.

    Sanchez, Ramsey and Giroud (who did nothing today but is owned by most already)

  16. KLOPPTOMANIA
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Play Myhill (new) or schmeichel (SOT)?

    1. FPL Maldini
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Myhill's confidence will be so high

      1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        and he plays newcastle

  17. Jar Jar Dinks
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    I really hate taking hits, but

    Vardy + Sterling = = = > Benteke + Ramsey

    seems worth it.

    1. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Looks good

    2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGeniusâ…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Those are my exact moves. 🙂

      1. GreennRed
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Doosra.

        Good to see you on here 🙂

    3. Gazza2000
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Was thinking the same

    4. Jar Jar Dinks
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Pulled the trigger.

      Feeling good about the team now!

  18. Lallana_
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    My team:

    Davis K
    Ivanovic Koscielny Bertrand
    Sterling Silva Sanchez (v) Hazard
    Murray Aguero (C) Kane

    Bench: PvA, Wollschied, Lucas.
    0.0M, 0FT

    Rivals Team:

    Courtois
    Kolarov Schlupp Dawson
    Sterling Silva Sanchez Hazard
    Kane Aguero Vardy

    Bench: PvA, Lovren, Boyd
    0.5M ITB, 1FT

    Had over a 100 pt lead but my rival's momentum has cut that lead to 40 pts within weeks! What would you do? I got Sanchez and PvA in this week already.

  19. 420king
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    How is this looking? Moreno to Wasilewski, Henderson to Gomez and Murray to Benteke for -4?
    (First two are to get funds for Benteke and another Arsenal mid in gw37)

    1. Ricky - it doesn\'t ta…
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Liking the Gomez in.

  20. Iceball
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Davies
    Kosc Terry Bertrand
    Sanchez Fabregas Hazard Gomez
    Kane Vardy Aguero (C)
    Hamer Henderson Skrtel Bruce
    0ft, 1,7itb

    A) Fabregas->Ramsey-4 and get Wickham for Vardy before DGW?
    B) Dont take hit and just get Ramsey next week

  21. Hibbo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Bingham away for a pish.

  22. Polaris - The Mortal Coil
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Stuart Bingham nipping for a toilet break before the frame's even finished. 😀

  23. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Ramsey and giroud owner here. Would you:

    1 fab and siggy for Sanchez and Gomez/Larson/albrighton for -4
    2 fab to ozil for free

    ?

  24. Ed
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Ramsey in for Sterling tonight? Can't afford any price changes, but just worried about that knock ramsey got in first half

    1. Az
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      he played on, no reports of any problems, looked fine...
      i reckon hes alright!

  25. TheCurseOfRaheem
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Was pleased to have Kos before this week. Now starting to think he is a waste of a spot.

  26. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    This game has only made it harder to choose the Arsenal combo not easier

    1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Good. Would be boring otherwise

  27. Lavaman
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Ivan & Murray to Giroud & PvA....

    or...

    Ivan & Murray & Fabregas to Giroud & McShane & Silva -4....

    or something better?

  28. DV8R
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    How about this for (-4)?

    Fab + Sterling + Ivan -> Sanchez + Ramsey + Vlaar

    Already have 2x Sunderland def, hence why I got Vlaar.

    1. Taffer
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Like it - a lot of hits will be taken for the DGW so go for it

  29. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          aye, massive ML damage though

          rival had San(c)hez

          should still be ahead by about 10

    2. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Yeah, did the same (or rather, did not do...)

  30. Taffer
    • 12 Years

      1. Taffer
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Vardy
