A low scoring day concludes at the Emirates Stadium, as Arsenal – equipped with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang – take on Everton.

The club record signing will undoubtedly be the big draw, as Fantasy manager are given the first opportunity to assess the Gabon international. He recovers from illness to start, backed by 104,000 managers who have already swooped for the Gunners’ striker.

But Nacho Monreal has been the most popular signing in the Arsenal camp, with the defender earning 127,000 new owners. The Spaniard has been on an extraordinary spree of attacking returns, producing two goals and two assists from his last two outings. However, the Gunners face Everton tonight having failed to earn a clean sheet in their last seven Gameweeks.

Theo Walcott is the key Fantasy asset on show for the visitors. He goes into this match with his former employer as the most signed player ahead of today’s deadline. More than 259,000 managers have drafted in the winger on the back of an assist and two goals from his two outings for the Toffees so far.

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

    Will Auba's offside be reviewed and overruled after the match?

    Having captained Aubameyang I'm just relieved that he's started and scored, even if he does nothing else i'll take that

      Gratz for being brave. Well played sir.

    2. LǝgleSs e|even

      I hope he gets a better goal to justify the lucky first half he had.

    Man oh man...captianed the right guy this week in Sanchez, but he let me down with PK miss.....turned a 32 point captain into 10 with a yellow to boot.

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

      youre not a real arsenal fan if you captained sanchez

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        oh here we go, a plastic fan trying to call out another plastic fan 😛

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

          the difference is one of us openly admits he's plastic and doesnt have an arsenal logo as grav

        You're right, only followed them since 1989. Still wear my JVC sponsored jersey around. Thanks for clearing up my fandom.

      2. GoonSquad
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Two goals = 10
        90 min = 2
        Clean sheet = 1
        Max bonus = 3

        16 total.

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

          u do realize he scored from the rebound of his pen miss?

          1. caio89

            • 15 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            I didnt...waiting for replay tonight. In that regard missed pk cost me 5 points....the -2 and any potential bonus.

        2. Licious Lizard (delete acc)
            8 years, 2 months ago

            Why would he have gotten 2 goals ?

          • dark91
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            Didn't know he can score from a rebound if the penalty would have gone in

            No wonder both Manchester clubs were fighting over him 😛

        Hard to assess, he's playing a very poor Everton team... so far.

        Yeah when I saw him in the line ups I was as shocked.

        I genuinely thought he was ill. Have to hold my hand up on that one.

        Turns out Phil Jones' sister is a better source than 'journos' on twitter.

        Whoops, tbf a lot of reports had said he was ill/doubtful and I just asked the question back 😉

      Wildcard... pick an Arsenal defender, any arsenal defender.

      1. Aston-villain
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Was the best pick

        Good one mate. His nailed ness due to fitness and consistency is brilliant...is this cribbing post or you bragging?

      Good gawd, my OR is plummeting in the past five weeks. Just going to have to focus on the ML now, I guess.

      Anyone strongly considering Wildcarding after this GW is over ??

      1. PocketZola
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Yessss

      2. F4L
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        I would if I hadn't played it already 😆

        1. Aston-villain
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Lol whats the damage this gw?

          1. F4L
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            idk, 17 from 6 so far so I'm just a bit pissed

            1. Aston-villain
              • 10 Years
              8 years, 2 months ago

              Yeh similar story here tbh. Shocker.

      3. Zenith UK
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Yes

      4. HNI
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Just dont. Next werk some other random players may score lot. Keep tight and mechanically do before dgw 34...You wont make lot of ground now this season as too many active players

        1. Aston-villain
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Its not that random really...i had alot of these players on my radar already and many on my 'rough' wc team. We're holding out for 1 or 2 gwk's yet we could lose alot more than we gain by then.

      5. Tazah
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        I am next week.... Will have a better idea of whose definitely starting

      6. LǝgleSs e|even
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Like WR mentioned, WC is overrated. Keep faith instead of kneejerking.

        Another golden tip, try to ignore and seek advise here. Do your research and go with your gut. It helps.

        1. Aston-villain
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Yes i agree, ive been here enough years to know that. Advice is just that, yoi dont have to take it. I look for a bit of critical thinking that i may have missed.

      7. jdp219
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Hell, I was strongly considering it going into this week. I stupidly played my FH a while ago, though, so I might save the WC.

      8. Positive vibes
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Yes, but maybe in gw 28 can be more useful, with fixture changing. Any thought?

    9. Tazah
      • 8 Years

      Why does niasse not start every game easily.... Very useful player
