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.

    That may well be Ox's last appearance in an Arsenal shirt.

    1. Tansey
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      As a Liverpool fan can't understand this Ox talk. Not sure how he'd fit into the team

      1. Davido989
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Can play a few positions. Injury record is definitely a worry.

      2. Ibracadabra
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Have you seen their squad/bench? It is 19, 20 and 21 year olds. One big injury to Mane and Coutinho and they fall apart. He will get plenty of chances to operate centrally with Can and/or Henderson or wide if they make tactical/formation adjustments.

        1. Davido989
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Agreed. He will play more with us than Arsenal. We're a 13/14 man squad at best.

      3. FPL_Hazards
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        this. we can do better

        1. Ibracadabra
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Only if LIV finish 4th can they really do better than Oxlade-Chamberlain. They don't have the allure of the other Champions League clubs or pay packet at the moment unfortunately for them.

    Ox hammy gone. Next game will probably be with LFC
