Gameweek 36 finally comes to an end this evening as Southampton entertain Arsenal at St Mary’s.

Alexis Sanchez will again be the focus of most managers’ attentions. Sitting in over 27% of FPL squads, the Chilean was the most captained player (11.2%) in the round of fixtures but a blank at home to Man United in his first match of Double Gameweek 36 means he has now netted just once in seven league appearances.

Meanwhile, his team-mate Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain looks to add to a pair of assists in the 2-0 weekend win over Jose Mourinho’s side. The Gunners’ wing-back has been drafted in by over 15,000 FPL managers this week for a Double Gameweek 37 against Stoke and Sunderland.

For the Saints, Manolo Gabbiadini was the fourth most transferred in player ahead of last week’s deadline, with over 108,000 taking the plunge.

Yet a blank against Liverpool took his run to one assist in five, as Claude Puel’s defence racked up the points at Anfield instead thanks to a fourth clean sheet in seven.

Thanks to his spot-kick stop away to Liverpool, the Saints’ Fraser Forster leads the way among the Double Gameweek contingent on 16 points ahead of tonight’s 7.45pm encounter.

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

    It was so obvious. I knew I should have gone with this defence on WC:

    Forster (C)
    Monreal - Gibbs - Holding - Yoshida - Stephens

    120 points just from the defence 🙁

    Hi Guys

    Would you do...
    A) Eriksen and Bailly to KDB and Holding for free
    B) Eriksen JWP Bailly to Sane Fabregas Huth -4

    Cheers

    Sanchez(c) and two Saints defenders. I probably want a Saints CS, don't I?

    1. AdamB
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      No, you want a Sanchez hattie.

        I'm talking effective ownership, everyone's got Sanchez(c) 🙂

    2. vectorman
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Sanchez a couple and your two defenders to combine lol.. Not much to ask for really 😀

      1. vectorman
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        For a goal I mean.. Might be stretching it for both to get goals

          That's no good either, got Cech and Monreal.

          Think I want a 0-0 🙁

    Wow, Ramsey is still sh**e. Who knew?!

      • 8 Years

      Ramsey needs to break another leg to be good again? Is that harsh? Probably ( i don't want Ramsey to break a leg : disclaimer)

  13. Lizard Lips

    Gabiadini in 40% of teams. Cech and Monreal both 16% so I guess effectively if he scores makes no difference as I own Gabbi and Cech.

      lol

      1. Lizard Lips
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        laughing at my maths or my misery, both I hope !!! 🙂

    2. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Depends on the ownership spread and the proportion of teams that own both vs. none

      1. Lizard Lips
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        both top 10k. Acutally it's probably better Cech keeps a clean sheet as Monreal and Cech will have a cross over!

  22. Point-one short
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Now that Gabriel's not playing I can cheer on Gabbiadini goals, safe in the knoedge Holgate's 2 points are coming off the bench. 🙁

    1. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
