Having struggled to make an impact in his opening matches for Manchester United, Alexis Sanchez has made a timely return to form ahead of Double Gameweek 34.

Back-to-back double-digit hauls against Swansea and Man City, denying the latter of the title at the Etihad Stadium, has reignited confidence in the Chilean’s Fantasy prospects.

With Jose Mourinho’s men set for a kind pair of fixtures against West Brom and Bournemouth, Sanchez looks a ready-made differential in Fantasy Premier League (FPL), boasting a 3% ownership.

In this latest Monitor article for members’, we run the rule over Sanchez’s recent form for the Old Trafford outfit to assess whether he could be worth the hefty 11.5 outlay.

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

    Bottomed - Valencia or Lingard - already have Bailly and DDG

    1. Danno - Emre Canada
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Lingard

    2. Arctic monkeys
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Lingard

    3. Ten Season Wonder
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Valencia

    4. Rupert The Horse

      8 years, 13 days ago

      Ooh that is tough.
      I see Valencia gettin 12-14 points though. Can’t say the same for Lingard.

      1. Transferred Out
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Exactly this for me

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          I’d say that’s your answer then. 🙂

          1. Transferred Out
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 13 days ago

            see below, not sure having 3 united defs for the run in is wise - can't only think of this gw sadly

    5. Ragabolly
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Valencia

    6. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Valencia. Lingard might sub off or play as sub, or dont play at all.

      1. Transferred Out
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        the only issue is having 3 united defs for the run in, I suppose one can always be shifted for Vert ahead of 37

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          Hmmm. So no Lukaku... tough one. But out of those two I’d go for Balencia.

  2. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Could Bernado Silva become a good option towards the end of the season (DGW37) if City have wrapped up the title, he's actually started 6/8 last games, Pep seems to like to ease in his Summer signings (did the same with Sane)

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      So hard to tell at this juncture.

      1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Yeah fair enough, already planning my DGW37 Bench Boost Side after I've WC the week before

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          I’m keen to see what happens with him though.

          1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 13 days ago

            Same, could be very nice value at 7.3m with Brighton+Huddersfield at Home in DGW37

            1. Rupert The Horse
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              8 years, 13 days ago

              Just imagine he plays over those two. Wow.

    2. Going Home
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Him and Gundogan are very much on my radar

      1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Gundogan is another that I feel will get more minutes come the end of the season, both have had good seasons despite playing a limited amount so far

  3. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Asked earlier but here goes.
    I have Stephens and I’m on bench boost.
    Would you take a hit to get Tomkins? Good home fixture this week, plays next and just good fixtures all round.
    Or stick just 14 players?
    I have Ryan, Bong, Morgan, Lowton and Tark so I don’t really see any dgw players for 4.5m.
    Make the move?

    1. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Yeah I'd go for it.

    2. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Yeah I would, but for Dunk

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Hmm. Triple Brighton defence could be one of those moves where I laugh at myself next week.

        1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          Have you lost your mind?! Oh wait... I have Ryan and Dunk...

          1. Rupert The Horse
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            8 years, 13 days ago

            That’s why I’m apprehensive on getting Dunk over Tomkins.

        2. Thinkering like a Boss
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          Well Fpl god Legend Ville Ronka does.

    3. Chris_H
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Not fancy a TC instead if you're only BB-ing three?

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Thing is I set my team up specifically to bench boost this week and I don’t see a good TC option. Gw 37 looks like there could be several.

  4. OptimusBlack
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Am So sorry For Repost

    A- Auba >Lukaku
    B- Alonso + Auba > Tarkowski + Kane
    C- Alonso + Makhtrian + Auba > Tarkowski + Eriksen + Lukaku but -4 PTS

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Weirdly I’d say be boring and go A or gamble and go C.
      With B I’d prefer the extra transfer instead.

    2. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      C. Miki need to get out

  5. Ten Season Wonder
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Best 5.5m mid for the DGW?

    (Ideally have two games but not absolutely necessary)

    1. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Lennon?

      1. Ten Season Wonder
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        nice diff

  6. chiragdhruve
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    BB ACTIVATED

    LLORIS / RYAN

    Mustafi** / LOWTON / SIMPSON / Stephens** / Masuaku
    ALBRIGHTON / ALLI / WILLIAN / LINGARD / GUDMUNDSSON
    VARDY / KANE / LUKAKU(C)

    A) Mustafi + Stephens --> BAILLY + CHRISTENSEN
    B) Mustafi + Stephens --> SMALLING + CHRISTENSEN/RUDIGER

    All 4 seem rotation risk :S?

    1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Option B is safer out of the 2

      1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Rudiger tho, not Christensen

    2. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      B

  7. NATSTER
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Which option do you rate as most important transfers for DGW34 ?

    (A) Auba ->> Vardy .. double with Mahrez
    (B) Auba + Lingard ->> Barnes +Sanchez .. double with Lukaku
    (C) Auba + Son ->> Vardy + Hazard .. double with Mahrez & Willian
    (D) Son ->> Alli .. double with Kane and keep Auba

    Team now as this.

    Mahrez - Son - Willian - Lingard (A.King)
    Kane - Lukaku - Auba

    1. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      A

    2. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      B

  8. JasonG123
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Which pair for the DGW:
    (A) Gross and Lingard
    (B) O.Romeu and Pogba

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      A. Don’t see the attraction of Romeu, even with Pogba being a nice upgrade.

    2. Ten Season Wonder
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      A

    3. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      A

    4. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      A. Romeu is literally useless in FPL

    5. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      A

    6. FantaCity
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      would you have to play Romeu? If yes, then A, if not B

      1. JasonG123
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        BB this week so yes.

  9. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Have two frees and doing
    Auba to lukaku with one

    Thinking mustafi to tark with the other as I've no free hit in 35.
    Good or bad idea?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Not a bad idea but I think Mustafi will equal or better Tark over the next two game weeks.

    2. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      There's a chance that Mustafi will score the same over two GW.

      Tark will play LEI / CHE in his DGW and I'm doubt if he will get any CS.

      Mustafi has GW35 to play too. There might be a better way to use the 2nd free.

  10. Jay Jay Okocha
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    For the BB DGW:

    Salah, Auba, Lowton OUT
    Lingard, Kane, Vertonghen IN (-4)

    *Gulp*

    1. Ten Season Wonder
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      no way.

      Just do Kane in

      1. Jay Jay Okocha
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        The other option is Son and Auba to Lingard and Kane for free. Does that sound better?

        1. Jay Jay Okocha
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          Alternatively, I suppose Alonso could make way

        2. Ten Season Wonder
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          Much better

  11. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    What are people's opinions on Pogba?

    1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Overrated dancing hairdresser, next.

    2. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Overrated irl and in FPL.

    3. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Just bought him in. 7.8m, nailed, good fixtures, 2xdgw.

    4. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Seriously considering getting him...but that would mean transfering him Bailly out as i have too many utd players

  12. Ten Season Wonder
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Auba OUT!!! But should I go for Kane or Lukaku? (2FT, £1.8m)

    DDG - Ryan
    Alonso - Smalling - Morgan - Lowton - Dunk
    Salah - Mahrez - Sonny - Willian - Gross
    "AUBZ" - Vardy - Barnes

    1. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Lukaku

    2. Zilla
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Lukaku

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Has to be Lukaku for me.

      1. Ten Season Wonder
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        All signs point to him, but I can't face going without Kane. I don't know when i would get him back in if I didnt have him this

  13. Ten Season Wonder
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Sonny or Arnie?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Son.
      Armies has incredible form but Son is just a game away from a haul.

  14. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Simple yes or no answer will do.

    Do you think Smalling will play both games in the dgw?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      I don’t do simple.

    2. GoonerByron
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      No

    3. Ten Season Wonder
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Que?

    4. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      No

    5. Dacra
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Maybe.

    6. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Thanks all

    7. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      I do yes (non-owner)

  15. Ten Season Wonder
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Anyonoe know what happens if you make a transfer next GW, but then activate your FH chip after, what happens?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      the player you ejected will be back in your squad the following week.

    2. Coot
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      It's like using a wildcard. All transfers that week cost nothing. Your team reverts the following week to the team you had the previous week.

    3. Ten Season Wonder
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Im talking about if I make the transfer next GW (after deadline saturday)... But then activate FH chip on say Sunday for example...

      1. Coot
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        My previous answer still applies. I got the question.

        1. Ten Season Wonder
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          haha, maybe it's me. Can you just confirm that say come this Saturday evening, I transfer out Lukaku > Kane... And then hit the Free Hit chip after... will that work okay or what? Because I'm under the assumption that after FH is used, you only still get 1 transfer rolled over...

          Trying to see if this would work that's all.

          1. Coot
            • 15 Years
            8 years, 13 days ago

            When you hit the FH button, that previous transfer will not count as a free transfer. Also, when you get your team back in the next week, you will still have Lukaku.

            In short, whatever team you end this week with, will be the team you have the week AFTER the FH is used. It doesn't matter when you press the FH button (Saturday, Sunday, Friday, etc).

  16. MHG
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    I've still got Jones in my team. Is it looking unlikely he'll be back in the Utd team yet?
    Thanks

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Could play one of the DGW games

  17. KUNingas
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Lukaku + Auba + Son + Stephens + Salah -> Kane + Vardy + Lingard + Christensen + Sanchez (-12)
    Surely not worth -12?

    1. Ten Season Wonder
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      -12 lol

      1. KUNingas
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Yep 😀

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Stephen for a free and leave the rest

    3. Gashead9
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      definitely not worth -12. I don't believe any moves on any week are worth taking -12 for

      1. KUNingas
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Thanks

    4. Majestic Chanka
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Carpe Diem

  18. Miguel Sanchez
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    No FH for 35 so having to told on to some players like Auba and Mustafi. GTG for BB34?

    DDG Ryan
    Vertonghen Bailly Mustafi Lowton Tarkowski
    Salah Mahrez (c) Son Willian Arnautovic
    Aubameyang Vardy Murray

  19. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    FAO FFS team and/or Mark:

    Is there any way you can build a notification panel onto the website, for replies to posts etc?

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      To alert each user on an individual basis, if that makes sense?

  20. Gashead9
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    I don't really fancy tripling up on Leicester by getting Vardy as planned for Auba this week, how does this look instead for -4?
    Willian, Auba > Sanchez, Austin

    DDG, Ryan
    Alonso, Morgan, Cedric, Lowton, Dunk
    Salah, Mahrez, Sanchez*, Son, Gross
    Lukaku (C), Barnes, Austin*
    0.2 ITB

    1. Prison Mike
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Losing Willian could backfire, was very unlucky not to be in the points against West Ham.

      1. Gashead9
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        yes it may well do, but wondering if not owning Sanchez would potentially backfire more! Who would you lose in midfield instead?

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      I just don’t like rhose moves I’m afraid.

  21. Prison Mike
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Mustafi -> Vertongen worth a hit?

    Yay or Nay?

    1. GS456
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Just by playing twice he gets the 4 back so yeah

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

        until City score 2 and he gets booked.

      2. Dacra
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        No he doesn't.

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Do you have FH?

      1. Prison Mike
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        I do

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          then yeah I think it will be worth it long term. Could well be 3 Spurs CS in the last three GWs

    3. Dacra

      Yea imo, Vert will outscore Mustafi by more than 4 between now and end of season

        That's my thinking but I'm already on a -4 so it would be for -8, still worth it?

    Hazard owners ,keeping or selling ? ( for Sanchez , Eriksen ? ) Thanks

      He's a nailed DGW player with good fixtures. I'd keep. Don't know if you're FHing but you may need the extra transfer.

        Thanks. Fh in 35

          OK so you don't need to save the transfer, but I just think he is always the sort of player that could return serious points. Sanchez or Eriksen could eclipse him, but imagine if they don't and he does and you have binned him?

          Either move is great, but you may end up frustrated if he was the right pick all along!

    Too early to plan Bench Boost DGW37?

    Ederson, McCarthy

    Vertonghen, Rudiger, Smalling, Morgan, Van der Hoorn

    Alli, Pogba, B.Silva, Ward-Prowse, Kenedy

    Kane, Aubameyang, Vardy

    All 15 have DGW's, feel CB's are less likely to be rotated than Full Backs so looking at getting 5 CB's, Midfield is a little light but can just get Mahrez & J.Ayew for Ward-Prowse and Vardy if I want to balance it out a lil bit more

  27. HD7

    Auba Murray Salah to Kane Lukaku AKing (-8). Have Vardy. Think that Murray and Salah will be rotated now and until the end of the season the hits will give dividents. Thoughts?

    Anything to do here 0.9ITB or G2G? Planning on bench boosting.

    DDG, Ryan
    Smalling, Mustafi, Morgan, Tark, Lowton
    Alli, Son, Mahrez, Willian, Milivojević
    Lukaku, Auba, Vardy

    1. KUNingas

      G2G

  29. KUNingas
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    A) Auba + Son -> Kane + Lingard (-4)
    B) Auba + Salah -> Vardy + Sanchez (-4)
    C) Auba -> Vardy
