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.

    Walcott won't even get 60 at this rate . Another terrible transfer.

    He's an ex defender and has been on their coaching staff for donkey's, and they've always been poor at defending.

        He has scored a lot of points from playing in that position before - I think the issue is Welbeck. He can be good but just hasn't looked on it since back from injury.

          It looks very disjointed. When Ramsey was playing well he was a big factor with Arsenal's creativity/fluidity. Thay're missing Santi too. I agree with you about Welbeck but he's not getting much service.

      Four double figure hauls in his last seven plus two assists in between....and just one blank.
