Saturday’s events draw to a close at the Emirates Stadium where Arsenal host Manchester United.

Once a fixture of huge significance for Fantasy managers, it’s fair to say that both teams have declined as a source of talent this season.

Romelu Lukaku heads into today’s match having suffered significant ownership losses over the previous two Gameweeks. He was sold by 234,000 ahead of today’s deadline, while some 356,000 moved him out in the previous Gameweek. The Belgian has just a single goal in his last seven Gameweek starts, recording three assists over that spell.

Interest in Paul Pogba has also slowed. He exploded with 12-points on his return to the starting line-up in Gameweek 12 but has since returned just an assist and saw his ownership dip by 6600 ahead of this match.

Meanwhile, Man Utd’s defence has produced just one clean sheet in the last four Gameweeks, with Phil Jones’ absence perhaps a key factor.

Arsenal have just started to hint that they could provide us with assets to consider.

Alexis Sanchez – last season’s top scoring player – remains on the periphery as part of just 2.7% of squads but Mesut Ozil and Aaron Ramsey are showing form that could yet tempt investment.

Ramsey has produced attacking returns in five of his last six Gameweeks, supplying four assists and two goals. Meanwhile, Ozil is fresh from a 17-point return in Gameweek 14.

Elsewhere, Alexandre Lacazette is, rather surprisingly involved in the tea-time kick-off. Arsene Wenger had stated that the Frenchman would miss out against Untied, but he starts and leads the Gunners attack.

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

        As a bluebird I still get twitchy about us even reaching the playoffs!

          I love watching them but I'd hate to see NUFC back in the playoffs.

    1. KUNingas
      • 10 Years

      • 9 Years

      Who for? No striker below 10 mil is worth having atm, 4-5-1 will just lead to hits down the line.. Might as well keep

        Firmino has decent fixtures BUT can we trust him...

  12. diesel001

    Man Utd showing the value of having a proper defensive midfielder in Matic. Making blocks, interceptions, tackles....

    DDG is a cool kid.

      Not sure about the man-bun though.

    Guys, any thought if I'm buying Kane for next gw?
    Have Kun and not keen on rotation and surely Kane will haul.
    Thanks.

      Wait for his price drops then get him in if you want him, 10 goals so far is good

  17. L'Aeroplanino
    • 9 Years

    De Gea 12 pointer incoming

  18. Norman Conquest
    • 12 Years

    safe hands

  19. LewanGOALski
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Sterling & Vardy

    Hazard & Murray/DCL
    for 2 FTs
    ??

    would mean no City attacker in my team though...

    Arsenal are playing wonderfully tbh.

    We are all screwed if united don't concede ffs

    1. diesel001

      8 years, 4 months ago

      I'm not. FFS' aversion to DDG is ridiculous. He keeps clean sheets and is the cheapest way into the Utd defence.

      1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Smalling has something to say to you

        1. diesel001
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 4 months ago

          Smalling is not nailed. Jones, Lindelof and Rojo all could take his place.

    That Lingard goal celebration is rank

  27. FPL Bargain

    Which team do you prefer A) risky big midfield or B) balanced?

    A)
    Speroni Pope Mee Femia, Klavan Kenny Marriapa
    Hazard Salah Sterling Sane Richarlason Morata Kane Quarner

    B)
    Speroni Pope Mee Femia, Christensen Jones Marriapa
    Hazard Salah Sterling GroB Richarlason Morata Kane Calvert-Lewin
