The first of three Sunday fixtures gets underway at 12pm as Arsenal entertain Brighton.

Alexandre Lacazette boasts some fine home form ahead of the Seagulls clash, with four goals in his first three outings at the Emirates.

The Frenchman is the most captained player for today’s match and third overall in the Gameweek, with 4.5% of Fantasy Premier League managers handing him the armband.

Alexis Sanchez claimed his first returns of the season last Monday against the Baggies and has another chance to audition for those wildcarding over the forthcoming break.

As has Aaron Ramsey – at 7.0, he’s bagged points in all of the Gunners’ home matches so far.

At the back, Arsenal have racked up three straight clean sheets and will face Watford, Everton and Swansea after today’s match. They’ll need to make do without Laurent Koscielny this lunchtime, though, as the Frenchman misses out with a recurrence of an Achilles problem.

Pascal Gross has been the Seagull’s star performer over the opening six.

Priced at 5.7, the German has played a part in four of their five goals and another contribution today could see his 13% ownership rise further.

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

    WC thoughts?

    Fab / Elliot

    Luiz / Davies / Otamendi / Cedric (Hunemeier)

    Sterling / Hazard / Atsu (TC, Carrick)

    Kane / Jesus / Lacazette

    1. Pranav Santhosh
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Would downgrade lacazette and upgrade atsu

    2. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Nice defence. I'd prefer Vardy over Laca and upgrade Atsu > Ritchie and Sterling > Silva but to each there own.

    3. Weeb Kakashi
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Like it!

      Lacazette > Morata later when he returns

      Have gone with a similar frontline
      My mid is
      Alli Hazard ECM

    Thoughts on Kolasinac?

    If u owned would you def be keeping?

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I'm selling

    2. Ha.
      • 10 Years

      Would only offload if on WC

      1. Jam0sh

    3. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      Definitely keeping.. He will come good

    4. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Nah, I'm selling. Keeping Bellerin.
      Since Alexis he is wasted.

    5. sambyy
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Selling on WC

    6. Pranav Santhosh
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Not worth a FT to get rid but doesn't look as much of a threat with Sanchez in the team

    7. Midlands Saint73
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Thinking switch to Monreal or is that too simple? On WC this international break anyway so have chance to tinker.

      1. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        2 tough away games. This was Monreals first premier league goal since march 2013 I think.

  3. Malcolm Tucker for England …

    3. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Should have been 5-0

  4. noquarternt
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Monreal and Bellerin double up looking good so far...just don't concede!

    1. COYS.
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Great move

    2. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Monreal was just lucky first league goal in 4 something years

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

        Bought him for a clean sheet, got a nice added bonus.

        Didn't you promise to quit this site last year?

    3. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Monreal will score equal to both of them combined (almost ) 😛

      1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        sorry read it as Kola.and Bellerin.my bas

    4. Football Weekender
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Nice. Double Arsenal defence is a ballsy move so fair play. Only half time though!

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

        Yeah need to knock on wood really...

        1. Football Weekender
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Kolasinac owner here so got my fingers crossed too mate.

  5. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Sanchez will tweak a hammy soon

  6. Cojiro
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Got Monreal in for Jones as he was 'injured'. Thanks Jose

    1. VFORVANDETA
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Nice

    2. Hurricane Gilbert
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I was so close to doing the same, but saved my transfer after the reports came in about Jones being included in the matchday squad. Ooh those margins...

    3. Pompel
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Yesterday I felt clever for not falling for that temptation 😕

      1. Hurricane Gilbert
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        This

    4. Cojiro
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Only did it as I was planning on wildcarding this international break. But I'm looking at the players I was planning on removing and starting to reconsider

  7. VFORVANDETA
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Laca looking good?

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

      Not very involved after the first two minutes

    2. @persecuted_by_mods
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Decent, just like with Kaku yesterday only a matter of time before he gets his goal

      • Hot Fuzz
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        meh a bit selfish imo

        1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          That's what you want from a striker.

      • noquarternt
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah pretty good, plenty of chances. Can see him scoring.

    3. Feloh

      2. socho
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        does not really apply this year

    4. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Tempting to do Laca + Kola to Kane + Fonte for a hit...

      1. ILOVEBAPS
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        I'd do that but no hit.

    5. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Foster or Fabby from now?

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

        Fabs

      2. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔

    6. Weeb Kakashi

      8 years, 7 months ago

      On WC

      Hazard Alli *** RLC tc
      Kane Jesus ***

      433

      Pick one
      A Ramsey Vardy
      B ECM Lacazette

      B allows me a direct swap from Laca> Morata later when he returns!!

      Thoughts??

      1. ILOVEBAPS
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        A and think about B when it comes to it

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

        No Lukaku?

    7. ahak9
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Relax guys,who knows what will happen in the next 45, maybe Laca will net a brace and both of them are from Kola assist

    8. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Sanchez needs to do himself a favour and leave Arsenal

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

        He's been trying to

      2. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Wouldn't even make the bench the way he's playing.

    9. Darsh
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      frustrating as a Kola owner

      1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Why? Because he is keeping a clean sheet?

      2. Stockport Hatter
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Got Monreal in for this weekend - not too disappointed at his 2nd ever PL goal and 1st for 4 years! 🙂

    10. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Do u think Arsenal will keep CS vs Watford and Everton away next 2 weeks?

      1. Sim Simma
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Yes

      2. KingNidge
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Probably concede in both

      3. ILOVEBAPS
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        No

      4. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Not against Watford and that is enough for me

      5. Kun Tozser
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        No

    11. Feloh
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      waxys was back a few days ago with a different name, am I the only one who noticed? I don't have the link

      1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Hahahaha. Whats his name?

      2. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
        • 8 Years

        How could you tell it was him?

      3. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Where's random name aswell?

    12. Forza Papac
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Ramsey close

    13. Stockport Hatter
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Early thoughts on what I could possibly do here....

      Elliot
      Davies Mee Monreal
      Salah Mkhi Richarlison Gross
      Morata Lukaku Kane

      Foster Lowe Mbemba TCarroll

      1. Cesc's old mullet
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Bank the FT.

        No pressing issues, all your players are performing well. Sit tight and have a beer.

        1. Stockport Hatter
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          I'll show the missus and take your advice 🙂

          1. Cesc's old mullet
            • 16 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Tell her a stranger on the internet told you to do it, I'm sure it'll go smoothly

            1. Stockport Hatter
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 7 months ago

              I was called an alcoholic. It's not the worse she's called me 😀

    14. Feloh
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Ramsey close lol

    15. Cesc's old mullet
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Wondering whether I should use my WC like I had originally planned. Could use your help.

      If I were to use it, I would go from this (** being the players taken out) :
      Foster Elliot
      *Kolasinac* Bavies Jones Mee *Kiko*
      Salah *Mkhitaryan* Ritchie *Mooy* Carroll
      Kane *Lukaku* Vardy

      To this :
      Foster Elliot
      *Stones* Bavies Jones Mee *Azpilicueta*
      Salah *Sterling* Ritchie *5.6 tops* Carroll
      Kane *Jesus* Vardy

      This would mean only 5 transfers on a WC. Is it worth it?

      1. Kun Tozser
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Why not sort your keepers out too?

        1. Cesc's old mullet
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Can't find anybody that rotates with Elliot that costs the same as Foster TBH

          1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Ryan. But he doesn't do saves. Rotation is very good, though.

            1. Cesc's old mullet
              • 16 Years
              8 years, 7 months ago

              And what about Hart?

              Surprised you didn't mention him.

          2. Legomané
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Fabianski

      2. Stockport Hatter
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        I think so and lob someone like Doucoure in your mid.

        1. Cesc's old mullet
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Next two fixtures are horrendous, but I could have him instead of Mooy, and bank the 0.4

      3. Legomané
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        4.5 and upgrade Azpilicueta > Marcos

        1. Cesc's old mullet
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Why not?

          But Azpi's relationship with Morata looks like the difference in price between him and Alonso might not be justified.

    16. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      That is why I’ll never be tempted by Ramsey....

    17. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Even Wheelchair laughing at Ramsey.

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Lol the nickname wheelchair still makes me laugh

    18. Feloh
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      wilshere looks like David silva

    19. VFORVANDETA
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Ramsey so selfish.

    20. Egg noodle
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Nice one Rambo

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

      This place will go mental when Brighton score!

    22. FPL Mentor
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      And ideas on what i should do with this:

      Foster
      Alonso Kolasinac Davies Jones
      Eriksen Mkhitaryan Ramsey
      Kane(C) Lukaku Calvert-Lewin

      (Elliot, Groß, Mbemba, Carroll)

      1FT 0.1m itb

      That Kola assist to Ramsey would of been delighful. Cant believe he didnt score 🙁

      Any ideas for next gameweek?

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

        Looks solid. Wait until after the IB and see if you have any injuries to deal with.

    23. Monkey Hanger
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Jack Wiltshire gone bald overnight?

    24. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      How many times in a match does Sanchez do that same dinky pass?

      1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        1.87 on average.

      2. FPL Mentor
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Almost as many times as Hazard tried that dinky lob pass yesterday.

    25. Ryan Naysmith
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Jones, Davies, Ottamendi and Monreal. My perfect back 4. Pretty cheap, all nailed or very close to it, bonus magnets, some can get the occasional goal/assist and from strong defensive clubs (bar arsenal). Posted this last week too and they are performing again. I'd recommend for and wilcarders. Maybe switch Jones to azpe and done deal.

      1. 42towels
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Yep! Replace monreal with azpi and that's my WC defense
