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

    Gabbiadini & Eriksen - > Ayew & KDB -4?

    1. Azerbaijan Shopping Centre
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Can you do better than Ayew

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

        5.0 max

        Player with something to play for final 2 weeks

          sorry i was looking at de brother.

          jeez his assists are mad ... and Sunderland and west brom to finish looks better than gabbi anyway !

    2. The Hobbit
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I thinking the same with Anichebe instead Ayew. I could afford the latter though, u think he is any better than Anichebe in dgw?

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

        He's a better player, in a team desperate to survive vs. A related side. Sunderland won't score vs. Arsenal so that's a write off imo

  3. Gooner97
    • 12 Years

    Cech
    48

  4. jimmy.floyd
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Gabriel to Gibbs?

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

      Frying pan to the fire.

      He's the one that drops out with centre halves fit imo

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

        You dont think its gonna be Holding with Kosc fit?

    2. Arctic monkeys
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Not if kosc is fit

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

        Should i get Holding instead?

  5. GS456
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Costa to Jesus

    OR

    Hazard to De Bruyne??

    1. GS456
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Costa to Jesus also allows Yoshida > Vertonghen (-4)

      1. FPL Pillars
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Nothing wrong with Yoshi my friend

    2. FPL Pillars
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      De Bruyne is tempting... would u capt?

      1. GS456
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        i think so yeah. Was all set for it, but now im only 20 points behind in mini league, im playing safe again.

  6. Deulofail
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    RP sorryyyyy. No opinions yet

    A) Hazard > KDB
    B) Save for GW38

    Cech Pickford
    Alonso Cahill Monreal Stephens Yoshi
    Hazard Alli Eriksen Sane Albrighton
    Kane Anichebe Jesus

    1. @fpl_phenom
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      B
      You've got enough city cover I think

      1. Deulofail
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Don't care about cover, thanks. It's about who's likely to score more over the next 2 GWs

    2. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Oops that's a lie. 1 for B

  7. @fpl_phenom
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    I can do Blind and Zaha > Holding and Sane for 2 hits....

    Yah or nah?

    1. Man Chest Hair United
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I would

      1. @fpl_phenom
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        What about Holdings minutes?

  8. sminkypinky
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    One answer please.

    90 and back on top in ml. Now for the kill.

    Final question (2 parts):
    A)Jesus likely to rise tonight?
    B) yes or no: bailly, Gabriel, Gabbi -> Benalouane, Holding, Jesus -4

  9. rocky7st
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    a) Herrera, Blind > Sane, Gibbs/Holding/5.0
    b) Herrera, Blind, Gabbi > KDB, Holding, Anich -4

  10. Team Zissou
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Who do we reckon the best defender for DGW is under 5.1? (Not City)

    1. @fpl_phenom
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Vertonghen?

      1. Team Zissou
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        He's 5.8 unfortunately

      2. FPL Pillars
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        He's shot down in price from when I last saw...

    2. rocky7st
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Holding or Gibbs

      1. Team Zissou
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Do you reckon either are nailed on?

    3. Sandy Ravage
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I went Gibbs over Cedric

      1. Team Zissou
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Is he nailed though?

  11. Gizzachance
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    replace evans{doubt} with clichy 5.2 ?
    have azpi stephens huth davies plus b/boost

  12. Fiona B
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Dear DZ

    What would you do with this lot? 2 FT and bench boost, 0 ITB

    Cech / Pickford
    Alonso / Monreal / Stephens / Holgate / Fernandez
    Sanchez / Hazard / Eriksen / King / JWP
    Kane / Costa / Gabbi

    Thanks in advance

    1. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      How much do you get if you take both Fernandez and Holgate out of your team?

      1. Fiona B
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        a grand total of 8.3

        1. Hibbo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Crap.

          Was going to say Yoshida & Holding for those two but maths doesn't work.

          Maybe one of them and roll for a bit of gw38 final day craic.

          1. Fiona B
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Thanks. It is a tricky one.

      2. Fiona B
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        why, what you thinking?

        1. Hibbo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          As above.

    2. MTPockets
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'd try to fit in a city attacker. If Aguero's out I'd try for 2.

  13. simon24601
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    A) Pieters, Alli -> KDB, Holding (-4 hit)
    B) Pieters, Alli, Ake -> Sane/Sterling, 2 defenders for combined 10.5m (-8 hit)

    Chasing a 26 point gap to league leader!

  14. the snazzy viking
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    4th -> 2nd in ML, overturning a 30 point gap in 2nd to a 13 point lead!

    MIND THE GAP

    1. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Key question is where first is?

      1. the snazzy viking
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        177 points in the lead ...

  15. sully29
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    How much did Sanchez(tc) outscore Aguero(tc) by? I've actually forgotten what Kun got, seems like ages ago.

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

      Sanchez - 14
      Kun - 9

    2. AYLD28
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Same points, both ended on 25

      1. AYLD28
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Oh this season, my bad

    3. GS456
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      15

    4. Man Chest Hair United
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Kun got 12 I believe

      1. the snazzy viking
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        He got 9, 1 goal v Sunderland with 1BP and a blank v Stoke

    5. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Sanchez TC = 42
      Aguero TC = 27

      15 points

    6. Konig Luther
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      9x3=27pts

      14X3=42pts

    7. Totalfootball
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Just 5 points ,

      Aguero TC 27 = 27
      Sanchez captain 36 = 28
      equals 55

      Aguero C 27 = 18
      Sanchez TC 36 = 42
      equals 60

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

        Not much loss , provided u TC aguero in 27

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

    Kompany + Haz to Monreal + KdB for -8 ? Crazy?

    1. AYLD28
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Not Kompany!!

    2. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'd rather have Kompany + Hazard FOR an 8 point hit

    3. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah, no way

  17. AYLD28
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Pickford / Henn*
    Monreal* / Kompany / Alonso / Bertrand / Stephens*
    KDB (c) / Eriksen* / Hazard* / King* / Zaha
    Gabbi* / Jesus / Kane*

    0 itb 90k OR

    Currently 60 behind my mini leader. Need help as he has 8 of my 15 players so need differentials to him. Players he has that I do are starred.

    Thoughts or recommendations chaps? Or am I good to go with the 7 differentials I have?

  18. MarkyMarkovic
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    A) Sane -> Pedro | Fabregas
    B) Sanchez \Hazard -> KDB
    C) Combination of the above

    Sane | Hazard | King | Erikson | Sanchez (original line up)

    will be bench boosting so no issues there

    1. jimmy.floyd
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      None

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

    Put in order of importance

    Don't have any arsenal or Chelsea def and have cabellero for city

    Money no option

    A Alonso
    B arsnal fed ( who)
    C kompany

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

      B arsenal def*

    2. dush64
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      C imo.

    3. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      ABonrealC

  20. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Quick check: who's everyone putting the armband on GW 37?

    Sanchez

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

      Sanchez!

    2. @fpl_phenom
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Sanchez

    3. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Jesus atm.

      1. sully29
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Really not keen on Sanchez. Poor form is poor form.

    4. dush64
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Tempted by Alonso! But probably Sanchez

    5. Sandy Ravage
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'm on KDB...

    6. GS456
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Jesus, Sanchez or De Bruyne if i get him.

    7. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Bruyne

      1. AYLD28
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        KDB

      2. Digital-Real
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Been tempted by him for weeks but Arsenal now in the sweepstakes for CL spot means Sanchez becomes more appealing.

        1. Team Cruel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          City need to keep winning to secure 3rd.

          1. Digital-Real
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Dont get me wrong it's a very good choice. He is on set pieces and 1 goal and 2 assists from KDB and it's points bonanza!

  21. dush64
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Rob Holding likely to keep his spot? 4.0 Arsenal defender is pretty juicy...

  22. Ógie

    3. MarkyMarkovic
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      a mere 91, my highest was 92 back in GW14
      left an additional 7 pts on the bench. so still wouldn't have managed it this week,

    Who to stay ?

    A- Blind
    B- Gabriel

    9 years, 2 months ago

    To complete BB squad Valencia to

    A Mustafi
    B Bertrand
    C Anyone else up to 5.8?

    Caballero Pickford
    BDavies Alonso Yoshida Monreal ??
    Sanchez Alli Hazard King Sane

  26. Man Chest Hair United
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Best option here

    Coutinho Gabbi Grant Gabriel out
    In KDB Anichebe Willy Gibbs -12
    Or
    Gabriel Grant Blind out for
    Willy Montreal Holding -8

  27. A Betting Man
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Would've ended up with 100 exactly if I went for Monreal over Koscielny 🙁

  28. Bainesill
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Which 1 to get?

    A. Monreal
    B. Mustafi
    C. Vertonghen

    1. dunas_dog

      Monreal

  29. OLLY G
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Holgate to Holding or save?

    1. enrico.palazzo
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Probably save, but I might end up doing the same

  30. I Have No Idea What I'…
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Hazard & Valencia > Alonso & Ozil. Worth a -8?
