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.

    That was two reds

  2. Lawrø
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    That's a red...

  3. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    That should have been a red card

    Poor refereeing

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Agreed.

      1. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Last man and he gives a yellow

        Strange decision

  4. Duffy Dunk
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    No red???????? first the handball, then this......

  5. Pat Bonner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Blatant red that. Ref bottled it there

  6. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Gibbs - well played.

  7. b✪mber
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    this is clear last man

  8. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Weird that one. Thats a yellow but if he fouls him with his feet its red...

  9. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Walcott trying to be bad ass 😆

  10. Ziro
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Surrounding the ref is an automatic yellow card for at least one player, no?

    1. Ziro
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Thought this was the rule this year?

      1. CloudSky
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        It isnt.

        1. Ziro
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          I though I definitely read it this season. New rules were put in place.

    2. Arn De Gothia
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      +1

  11. The Enlightener
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Red it should have been. Refs bottle it again.

  12. F4L
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    that's a red ffs

  13. Shirokov(c)
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Hmmm, Arsenal getting lucky with the decisions so far

    1. b✪mber
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Its a home game after all

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      More likely its the "team at the bottom of the table being shafted by the refs yet again" syndrome.

  14. Giovanni Giorgio
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Now how is that not a red??? Man...

  15. F4L
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Refs bottling it again. Sattenburg

  16. Somalion
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Ref needs to take the ball and go home

  17. rdamjan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    1. Sponge-worthy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

  20. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Lexi losing more bps

  21. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Will take that Gibbs YC - should have been a red, but I want the Arsenal clean sheet.

  22. LECHUCK
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    How wasn't that a red?!!?!!?!

  23. ljuta zena
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Ridicilous....

  24. Stats Don\'t Lie
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Wish id known arsenal were playing with 12 men before hand

    1. John t penguin
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      You can't count walcott

      1. Business Cat
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        ...or Ozil

    2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Klattenberg is a red. UTD or Arsnal..take your pick

  25. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Arsenal need Giroud here

  26. John t penguin
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    we may all be buying hull players soon

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Indeed - Markovic on my radar

  27. dark91
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    It can't be a red cause Markovic wasn't even controlling the ball yet

  28. Arceus
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Sanchez's touches has been poor throughout. He's better at his hands.

  29. F4L
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    That's never a foul, Kosc diving again

  30. Differentiator
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Arsenal should be 2 men down.....

    Apparently chucking a ball towards the linesman is only a YC
    Apparently taking out the last man is a YC

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      They have been pretty lucky, I don't think Walcott's was a red though. Gibbs was cynical, lucky boy.
