The Gameweek concludes at the Emirates Stadium, as Arsenal pay host to West Bromwich Albion.

In short, tonight’s match is very much an audition for Arsenal’s Fantasy assets, who will need to impress in order to enter our thinking for the Gameweeks ahead.

The Gunners have so far been a source of frustration, not least for manager Arsene Wenger.

Alexandre Lacazette has shown glimpses and flirted with our line-ups but goes into tonight’s match cast in the shadow of other heavy-hitters in attack. The Frenchman is still part of 10.2% of squads, though that total continues to dwindle.

Sead Kolasinac is another temptation and perhaps a more viable option.

He has impressed when handed the opportunities by Wenger and now seemingly cemented at left wing-back, he has the chance this evening to play his way into our defences. At 6.0 however, he will need to convince us to push funds into our backlines at a time when attacking players are very much the priority.

Alexis Sanchez could be one of those attacking options but his season has stalled due to injury and unrest to this point. He starts tonight and could easily become the headline act to spark Wildcards and transfer hits aplenty.

But, despite a miserable record at the Emirates, West Brom will surely prove a difficult barrier for Sanchez and Wenger’s attack.

Tony Pulis’ rearguard have conceded the fewest shots in the box in away matches this season (14) and the fewest big chances (2) – both records shared with leaders Manchester City.

They will also pose a threat to Arsenal at set-pieces. Craig Dawson – owned by 4.9% – scored a brace from corner kicks the last time these two teams met.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      I still can't believe Citeh bid big for him?!

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Only 3 CBs, would have only needed him to be fit once a month.

      2. @persecuted_by_mods
        8 years, 10 months ago

        He's a good defender, underrated. Injury is his biggest problem

        Something to do with homegrown talent?

    If Firmino plays 90 mins midweek would you do

    Firmino --> Vardy

    1. Forza Papac
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      8 years, 10 months ago

      Considering that move myself

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years

      Nah, he's pivotal to Klopps plans

      Nope, but don't let that stop you or the other 15m people that want to do the same lol

    f off sanchez

    cant wait for him to be sold

    1. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      He won't be sold, he'll leave for free

  4. drughi
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Evans must have sanchez in his fpl team

  5. We Will Klopp you
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Pick two premium forwards with good fixtures + and just run with them imo
    Happy with my Kane, Aguero, vardy strike force and won't be switching

    1. FPL Maldini
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      The good thing about Vardy is he won't be rotated at all

      1. We Will Klopp you
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Agreed, Kane can be afforded patience Firmino not so much

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Ok

      1. We Will Klopp you
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        That's my twopence re the so many options conundrum

      2. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Mane is back, Firmino points galore

        1. We Will Klopp you
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          We'll see, will get him back at some point if needs be but he has tougher fixtures over the next 3 and vardy has better fixtures , so happy to make the trade

    Monreal looks like a bap monster. Worth getting him in for Brighton (H)?

    1. FPL Maldini
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      That Azpilicueta role does seem to pick up many BAPS

      (Minute: 43)
      3 - Lacazette (29)
      2 - Monreal (14)
      1 - Mustafi, Nyom (12)

    Kola doesn’t look as impressive with Sanchez doing everything down that side

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      The one time you want Wenger to actually play someone out of position...

  16. Ould Onion Bagger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Two choices:

    1) Kane and Firmino

    or

    2) Jesus and Morata

    1. glufs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Neither

      1. Ould Onion Bagger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Lukaku, Jesus, and Firmino with $2MM in the bank. You would...?

  17. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 10 Years

    Wow! Monreal

  18. Wilshere Knowledge
    • 12 Years

    I think I'm better than Mustafi.

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      don't see u in your national team

      1. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Neither are you, but you're probably better than him too.

  21. Bobby Digital

    KDB seems to be doing the dirty work for all these other cameos. What do you guys think, time to get rid?

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

      He has been involved in 3 goals. Keep.

    2. SUAREZ_MESSI_COUTINHO
      • 11 Years

      Sell. Plenty of good cheaper options + Hazard.

  22. Ryan Naysmith
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Monreal owner happy with him there

  23. Stefan
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Foster, Eliot
    Cedric, Davies, Jones, Mee, Hunemeir
    Alli, David Silva, Ritchie, Fernandinho, Caroll
    Lukaku, Kane, Jesus

    I have two changes for next gameweek, Morata ----> Jesus, or for example Aguero ---> Jesus and Ritchie -> I don't know, some for 4.7 :D. Or nothing to change?

  24. Ha.
    • 10 Years

    • 9 Years

    Give Monreal 100 BAPs for that.

    Sorry Ramsey is so bad, that’s because I bought him in. I miss Tadic.

    1. Pierce34
      • 10 Years

      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Clean sheet odds:
      Arsenal 2.20 50%
