Dugout Discussion – Crystal Palace vs Arsenal

Gameweek 32 concludes at Selhurst Park as Crystal Palace – with victories in four of their last five Premier League matches – look to maintain their recent revival against London rivals Arsenal.

Sam Allardyce’s’ Eagles have kept clean sheets in their last two home outings but a shut-out looks unlikely this evening: they face an Arsenal side who have scored in each of their previous twenty matches in the Premier League, with key Fantasy asset Alexis Sanchez a big factor in that statistic.

The Chilean has notched 12 goals and supplied five assists on the road this season – more than any other player – and is backed by 309,000+ or 7% with the captaincy this evening.

He’s supported by an in-form Theo Walcott, with the FPL midfielder boasting goals in back-to-back Gameweeks as he bids to provide us with a cheaper alternative to Sanchez. Impressively, Walcott has scored 18 goals from his last 23 starts in all competitions.

    Leicester (H) Liverpool (a) Tottenham (H) Burnley (H)

    These are not ideal fixtures, but how on Earth are they labelled by some as "terrible"?!

    Leicester are focused on their Atletico games, can see Palace extending their home run against them.
    Liverpool? Yes, Palace will probably concede, but this is still a great fixture for attackers. Always been, at least for the last few years.
    And then they have Burnley at home, no explanation needed.

      A) Vardy -> Kane, Origi -> Anichebe
      Play Sanchez vs mid, then in the next GW:
      Sanchez -> Davies, Anichebe -> Ibra

      B) Vardy -> Kane, Sanchez -> Davies
      Play Davies vs BUR, then in the next GW:
      Origi> Ibra

      If I go with A then I spend an extra 4 pts on transfers but can play Sanchez away to Boro. If I go with B then I save those 4 pts and play Davies at home to Burnley this GW.

      Leaning towards B, thoughts?

        it depends on who are there replacements

        you could manage with Lukaku Costa Kane Ibra and Vardy as premium options

        Premium options in midfield are less promiment

        Theres Hazard Alli/Firm Alexis and Couts/Firm worth having

        Imo you could probably benefit more by dropping kun even if in form

      Repost. Already on a -4 to sneak Kane in.

      Sanchez probably dropping like a stone this week. Surely it's madness to do Sanchez > Hazard for an additional -4? It'll mean when I WC I can have both.

          Reasons? I'm keen to keep Lukaku for the Burnley fixture, but I think he'll start to cool off after that. I can see Aguero and Kane both scoring more than Lukaku with their respective run ins.

              I want Kane for this weekend against Bournemouth, and don't want to sacrifice Lukaku for the Burnley game. Can see Aguero blanking, and Kane netting a brace. Of course if Kane doesn't score then it will have backfired, but think it could be a gamble that pay's off. I've also set my team up for the next few GW's so no necessarily worried about using up the two free transfers.

      Why is PL taking so long to get gw35/36/37 info out there.

      I'd like Arsenal dgw's in 36 and 37 to give me an option of shifting Sanchez to Haz and buy back later.

        His boots were made for walking, but Poch doesn't agree.

        Wasn't Pocheccino the Spurs expert around here? Haven't seen him post in a while.

        Always said trippier is a better defender.. As much as I like walker he sometimes forgets how to defend. If trippier gets benched after his MOM performance at weekend then sury he has to question his future at my wonderful club

          Walker is a better defender.

          Both are decent, but walker's lapses have become much less frequent last 2 seasons.

            Sometimes you actually feel basic defending is beyond him..no one better going forward though.

              A couple of years ago i'd agree with you but his consistency has really come on. Got a season ticket and he has been very very reliable.

                I go to a few games. I agree but he has the occasional defensive lapse. In Think he's fantastic don't get me wrong and yes improved loads under poch. Odd isn't it when we signed naughton and walker..naughton was the one who was meant to shine out of them both. Harry didn't like walker originally did he
