Saturday’s action concludes at the bet365 Stadium now as Stoke go head-to-head with Arsenal in the evening kick-off.

With four of the top five captains for Double Gameweek (Diego Costa, Romelu Lukaku, Sergio Aguero and Eden Hazard) failing to find the net already, Alexis Sanchez’ 10.6% armband backers will be hoping he can build on his midweek strike at Southampton.

Indeed, with a home encounter against Sunderland also to follow in midweek, the Chilean has been triple-captained by 70,403 in the penultimate round of fixtures.

Handed a third straight league start, the Gunners’ Rob Holding was the fourth top transfer target for Double Gameweek 37 – over 100,000 FPL managers drafted in the summer signing from Bolton as a budget-friendly route into a rearguard that’s delivered three clean sheets in their previous four.

Marko Arnautovic looks the man most likely to breach the Arsenal defence. The Potters’ wide man has played a part in four of his side’s last five strikes, serving up a goal and three assists over the last four Gameweeks.

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

    Is Gabbiadini just out of favour?

    Hope he doesn't make squad next time so King comes off my bench

    1. Pigsinblankets
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Bad form since his injury, plus with Austin, Rodriguez and Long all in contention, he probably won't play the next game either

      1. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        I bloody hope so, king is waiting on the bench for me

      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Alexis just patted Pieters on the bum.

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      For Stoke, no.

      For Arsenal, up until Giroud gets involved.

    3. The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Nope

    4. Duffy Dunk
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Montreal looked really dangerous earlier, not much after that

    5. Magic Bean

  6. matiakez
    • 15 Years

    I got in mustafi instead of monreal why

    1. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Cheaper with record of more goals and comparable assists ?

  7. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years

    Sanchez close

  8. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years

    Gru Assist, Sanchez Goal denied

  11. nkhoughton
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Looking like Monreal was the captain choice to go, he's Soo attacking atm

    Wish I went for it

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      You will never captain a defender in a double game week.. be realistic

      1. nkhoughton
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Defenders always do well in them though

      2. Pigsinblankets
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Team with highest gw rank (so far) TC'd Azpi...

        1. Sim Simma
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          Look at their rank, they had nothing too loose

          1. Pigsinblankets
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 11 months ago

            I know, do find it funny though. Wish I had the nuts to do it!

    2. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Didn't realise he's racked up loads of points already... my bad.

      1. nkhoughton
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        I meant because of how attacking he's playing plus with clean sheet possibility

        It's not a silly decision in hindsight

  12. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Serious question - who is worse, Bendtner or Giroud?

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Choose your poison.

      1. Sim Simma
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Ivy or Trump

  13. Pinky Blinders

    LOL at the disappearing posts here! Could have sworn I just read something about a MU photo shoot. It's like being an alien abductee and missing time.

    1. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      That was a stupid post anyway

    2. Sims
      • 9 Years

    3. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Was a nonsense post anyway.

  14. Feloh
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    raise your hands up if you want mustafi to get a yc and the game to end in 2-2 draw with monreal scoring both goals.

    1. fedolefan
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      raise your hands up if you want to win fpl.

    2. CloudSky
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Mustafi already has a yellow.

  15. Eden ACCOUNT CLOSED

    A Sanchez goal will turn my GW around PLZZZ

    1. Point-one short
      • 9 Years

      Would be nice

  16. Rainer

  17. Weasel51
    • 10 Years

    How has Sanchez looked ?

    1. CloudSky
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years

    3. La Roja
      • 14 Years

      Ok'ish

  18. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Giroud should not be starting.. Wenger never learns

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      He's great when he comes on rubbish when seeking starts

      So obvious he should be used as an impact sub

    2. Point-one short
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      That'll be the dementia tbf.

    3. Ramboros
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Look at what you have done.

  19. Sims
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Giroud has the worst running style ever

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      I raise you Pogba

  20. Wilshere Knowledge
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Our back 3 is so flat.

    Utterly moronic management.

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Front 3 u mean?

      1. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        No, back 3.

        No pivot point, outer centre backs become redundant, full backs too deep.

        Outer centre backs should be 1 yards ahead of the middle man.

        1. the Penman
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          Or 1 yard behind, if the centre is playing a deep holding mid role like Luiz.

        2. Wilshere Knowledge
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          10* yards

  21. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Useless Arsenal, just get that goal and yourselves into that fight for the top 4.

    1. Annie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Timing

      1. fedolefan
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Perfect.

  22. ktk_interista
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    Sanchez is like Randy Orton with RKOs. All it takes is one 😉

  23. FPL Virgin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    What a disastrous Gameweek.

    No Stephens. No Gabbi. Bought KDB over Sane. Hazard blank and likely to be rested in the plum Watford game.

  24. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Bellerin Assist, Gru goal

  25. Pigsinblankets
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Donkey goal

  26. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Of course 😆

  27. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Worst combo ever......

    1. Duffy Dunk
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      useless combo indeed

  28. Mark-O
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Giroud is on form again omg 🙁

  29. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    1-0 to the Arsenal.....

  30. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Bellerin 1, Monreal 0
