Gameweek 36 finally comes to an end this evening as Southampton entertain Arsenal at St Maryโ€™s.

Alexis Sanchez will again be the focus of most managersโ€™ 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 Mourinhoโ€™s side. The Gunnersโ€™ 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 weekโ€™s deadline, with over 108,000 taking the plunge.

Yet a blank against Liverpool took his run to one assist in five, as Claude Puelโ€™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 tonightโ€™s 7.45pm encounter.

    Such a shame there's no one else in Gabbiadini's price range

    1. Home Run Baker

      Llorente

      1. Darklord_bg
        9 years, 6 months ago

        This

      2. Viper
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Good call. Hard to lose a dgwk player though

        1. Somalion
          9 years, 6 months ago

          For me it would require taking a hit so it really isn't very sensible, but I'd be lying if I said I hadn't considered Llorente heavily. Sunderland is a must win game, they can't defend and Llorente + Siggy are Swansea's only hope.

    2. matiakez
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Yeah are we just stuck now?

      1. Viper
        9 years, 6 months ago

        As above, Llorente it seems is the next best bet

    3. AF90
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Really want to keep Lukaku over him but just haven't got a way of doing it!

      1. Whazza
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Step 1: Don't make the move.
        Step 2: There is no step 2, you're done.

    4. Rainer
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Yeah he really is a hit to get out. Either upgrade or dump him down to Anichebe, no in between.

    1. Darklord_bg
      9 years, 6 months ago

    2. V-2 Schneiderlin

    Lol @ Gabbi owners

    1. Robben Mee Blind
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Nice!

    2. Rainer
      9 years, 6 months ago

    4. Rains of Castamere
      9 years, 6 months ago

    5. Royal5

    6. Corrine M
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Yup, only 97pts ๐Ÿ™ Gabbi's due a haul now ๐Ÿ™‚

  16. Sp0rting
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Zaha and Gibson to Fab and Gibbs?

    For a -8, of course

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Pretty close but probably yes, far more upside with the latter. No idea on Gibbs nailed-ness of Fab's mins though

  17. Robben Mee Blind
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Pieters and Zaha to Sanchez (C ) & Koscielney (-4) was so close to being a perfect move ๐Ÿ™

  18. Davido989
    9 years, 6 months ago

    I'm in favour of giving Terry's PL medal to Gabriel.

  19. ptr88
    9 years, 6 months ago

    What do you think is best för DGW37:

    A) Monreal & Kos
    B) Alonso & Azpi

    I now have Monreal & Alonso but want to double up one of Arsenal or Chelsea def.

    1. Karan_G14
      9 years, 6 months ago

      I'd keep what you have.

      1. ptr88
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Yes I wrote a little bit confusing..I will keep what I have but want to transfer out Huth to Azpi/Kos.

  20. GENERATION X
    9 years, 6 months ago

  21. JÆKS โญ

        Ha, see next page....great minds...

  23. The 12th Man
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Think I'm going to take a -12 hit this week.
    Gibson,Gabriel,Alli,Gabbiadini > Kompany,Gibbs,KDB,Anichibe.

    I have a 14 point lead in my main ML over second place.
    He has his WC to play but no BB.

    I have my BB so need to maximise my bench.
    Take the hit to get this team
    DDG,Foster
    Alonso,Yoshida,Gibbs,Kompany,Bailly
    Sanchez,Hazard,KDB,Tadic,T.Carroll
    Kane,Jesus,Anichibe

    1. FPL Footy Show Pod
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Like it - Tadic I'm not sold on

      1. The 12th Man
        9 years, 6 months ago

        I don't either but I'm stuck with him this week unless I take more hits. Tadic > Fabregas for -16

  24. rocky7st
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Is Sane + Gibbs or 6.7 mid + Kompany better?

  25. Rains of Castamere
    9 years, 6 months ago

    73pts with no Sanchez. Fairly satisfied but an Alexis blank would have been a huge huge green.

  26. Essrick
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Gabriel and Hazard > Alonso & Fabregas for -4?

  27. FPL Footy Show Pod
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Love to Holding

    Alli & Love to Eriksen & Stephens

    Gabbi & Love to Anichebe & Vert

    Already own Holgate - on a BB and 50 off the pace in ML with top 2 having no chips left

  28. GE
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Cech or Caballero?

    Gibbs or Holding?

    Which combo? ๐Ÿ™‚

  29. Colonel Shoe ่‚ๆฑ 
    9 years, 6 months ago

    gibbs or holding

    the new gabriel dilemma

  30. JackBetherz
    9 years, 6 months ago

    A) Lowton to Gibbs/Holding -4 (if A then which one of the two)
    B) Cahill to Monreal -4
    C) Stick
    Thanks in advance
