Just three Gameweeks now stand between Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers and the long, dark teatime of the soul that is the summer break.

Yet with mini-league titles still to settle and another Double Gameweek on the horizon, difficult line-up decisions continue to present themselves. After a pair of red-hot Gameweeks across which his Man City side have racked up an impressive eight goals, Gabriel Jesus has firmly inserted himself into the Fantasy conversation and summarily dismantled the Wildcard template frontline of a Harry Kane – Romelu Lukaku/Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang – Jamie Vardy triumvirate.

With goals in each of his last three starts, should Jesus displace one of his fellow heavy-hitters within our frontlines? And how much should we consider sacrificing to ensure we have the Brazilian on board?

In this latest Monitor article for members, we will be breaking down the striker’s season, recent form, and evaluating his potential over the final handful of games versus altnernative targets in the Man City squad.

      That's a red arrow unless you captain one every week.

      Doesn't bode well for Arsenal...

    Did Wenger bring any subs?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years

      No. Wants an excuse to rest them and get hammered on Sunday.

    How's my wildcard team looking?
    Hennessey - (4m)
    Bavies - Dummett - Lowton - (Chilwell) - (Bednarek)
    Salah - Sterling - Sane - Arnie - (Kenedy)
    Kane - Jesus - Vardy

    Any changes you would make?

      • 9 Years

      ill be honest, id be more attracted by jayew than vardy. frees up funds elsewhere.
      also would want either fabianski or a swans def.

    2. MTPockets

      A dgw keeper.

    Bailly, Mahrez & Willian ➡️

    Cheers! 🙂

    1. FPL Scoop

      first 2 only an option?

  5. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    I hope to God the new manager arrived and demotes Xhaka and Iwobi to the reserves

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      And Mustafi. And Koscielny.

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        And the rest!

        1. Bubz
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Yeah feck it, bin them all

      2. Deulofail
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Poch will arrive and swap them for Vert and Sanchez 😀

      3. syke63
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        He could prob keep five from that 11

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Xhaka = middle of the road player who does not add anything offensively or defensively.
      Iwobi and Welbeck = physical players who have little technical skill
      Mustafi = defender who doesn't like defending

    3. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Feck that. Just sell Xhaka. And Mustafi

  6. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
    • 14 Years

    Pathetic Arsenal, absolutely frickin pathetic. Poor Arsene

  7. Piggs Boson

          of course i get it lol.

          don't understand the continued hate towards wenger when he was at no fault for that goal. koscielny and especially mustafi god awful

            1. FPL Scoop

              😆

          1. Epic Fail
            • 16 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            His fault for having them in the team. Why pick a player who is going to make that mistake?

            1. Epic Fail
              • 16 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              In all seriousness though he continues to pick Mustafi. That can't be defended...

            2. FPL Scoop
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              Granted. But do they have many other choices 😀

          2. diesel001
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            As I said. A manager sets a tone. Look at the tone Simeone sets for Atletico. Compare that to the one Wenger gives to Arsenal. A football team takes on the personality of a manager.

            1. FPL Scoop
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              yep, of course. I agree

              but my point still remains, I doubt wenger is alright with the defending there

              1. diesel001
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                Then he should do something about it. Drop them. Coach shape and positioning like Pulis and Hodgson. Except he doesn't.

                1. FPL Scoop

                  • 9 Years

        8 years, 3 months ago

        i know that you knob.
        my point was that he'd be useful to them in a game like that if he was able to play

        1. Deulofail

  10. Mackans

    8 years, 3 months ago

    What option is the best for DGW 37??

    A: Alonso, Mahrez & Murray -> VDH, Arnie & Jesus (-4)

    B: Alonso, Mahrez, Vardy & Murray-> Smalling, Sterling, Jesus & J.Ayew (-8)

    1. MTPockets
      8 years, 3 months ago

      A b/c doubt Ayew's worth a hit.

    2. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      a this week but id want jayew for the double

  11. Stevie B
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Why do people think that Sterling will not play the full game. He had a full week to rest.

    1. MTPockets
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Pep

      1. MTPockets
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Although I've got him in b/c think he'll keep playing. Was subbed after about 70 mins.

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Think he was pictured wearing a bib in training.

      1. FPL Scoop
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        The horror!

    3. pjomara
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      because pep wants to give squad players decent sub time

    4. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Pure speculation and overthinking Pep's lineups when you can never second-guess him.

    5. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      He'll be rested for the Champion's League.

      1. Duffy Dunk
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Isn't he ineligible to play for Liverpool?

  12. Jimmy Boy
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    A) J.Ayew and Son
    B) Vardy and Kenedy

    1. F4L

    1. Syd.
      • 17 Years

      No but his sister Mavis might

      Yes David will play

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      depends if he goes back to Spain for personnel reasons or not

    3. FPL Scoop

  19. Sharkytect

    8 years, 3 months ago

    Is there somewhere I can get a history of FPL scores from last season?

    I need to prove to someone that kane did not score 7 in one double gameweek. (He scored 5: 1 vs man u, 4 vs Leicester)

  20. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    When you've been at a club for 22 years every mistake on the pitch is your fault.

    Every player at the club was carefully selected by Wenger to represent Arsenal and challenge for titles. He chose poorly.

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      What a ridiculous statement.

    2. Nascimento
      • 11 Years

    Who should be next Arsenal manager in your opinions?

    1. Defcons are for Kinnear

      you

        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        ...

        was genuinely interested in who people think

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Hopefully Ewwy van Gaal.

    3. Syd.
      • 17 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Big Bird from Sesame Street

    4. F4L
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Eddie Howe

      1. diesel001
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Overrated manager

        1. F4L
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          hmm maybe, Bournemouth have been sub par this season. I don't want to say it, but our manager (Jokanovic) would suit Arsenal's style of play perfectly

          1. DJ1000
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            Bournemouth have been sub par this season.

      2. kennethrhcp
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        i was saying to friends for the last few years he'd be a great long term successor... but I think he's better going in once removed... i.e. get in a big name no nonsense manager for 2 or 3 years & then Howe take charge. they need a shake up

    5. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Ancelotti with Bergkamp or Henry as assistant.

      1. FPL Scoop
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        that'd be interesting

      2. JJO
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        I like this
        But think Ancelotti will chose his assistants and it wont be H or B

      3. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah, he's won multiple Champion's League titles. Arsenal need that quality.

      Aight whatever lol.

      'tis the jokers on rn. I agree with some of the speculation it should be a former player. but should be one with at least some experience, obviously. arteta might be good

      1. Adams6
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Arteta doesn’t look like a manager to me. I doubt he’s even in charge at home.

    Three points in it in my mini league. Can only afford one of Kane or Jesus. Go template choice or slightly-less-template choice?

      I would go Jesus, but not having Kane for 37 would make me more nervous than missing him for 36. Still yet to get some form in as of late

        They’ve been shut down at the request of FPL Virgin.

          I thought FPL Virgin ran the AE account?

            No, Ruth NZ

            It's Waxy's. He's earned our trust and will ultimately troll us tomorrow.

    Opinions? Thx for suggestions!
    De Gea
    Cedric - Tarkowski - Lowton
    Salah - Mahrez - Son - Willian
    Kane - Vardy - Barnes
    (Ryan / Groß / Morgan / Bailly)

    A) Save FT for DGW
    B) Willian to Arnie
    C) Mahrez to Sterling
    D) Salah and Groß to Sterling and Arnie(-4)
    Salah to Sterling/Eriksen if he doesn’t play?

    1. Duffy Dunk
      • 9 Years

      C and don't punish yourself by ditching Salah

    Only Arsenal could be undone by a hoof up field playing against 10 men.

    Only Wenger would make zero subs.

    Bizarre.

    Sorry for the long post...trying to plan for the run in. Any input is appreciated 😀

    DDG (Ryan)
    Bailly-Lowton-Christensen (VdH-Morgan)
    Son-Alli-Mahrez-Willian (Kennedy)
    Kane-Lukaku (Barnes)

    1Ft, 0.0ITB

    Plan is this..
    GW 36: Kaku, Mahrez, Christensen -> Jesus, Sterling, Smalling (-8, 0.7ITB)
    GW 37: Bailly -> Cedric (or any def under 5.0)
    GW 38: Alli -> Salah

    Does it look ok, or complete bonkers?

    Think I'm going to save my ft here - and reassess for dgw37.

    0itb

    Ddg (ryan)
    Vert tarko lowton (Alonso morgan)
    Salah mahrez Willian mili (gros)
    Kane lukaku Barnes

    Going to refrain from lukaku to jesus as arsenal will play weakened team at united.

    Sound sensible to save and reassess? Thanks

    Is Anfield Express still good to go?

      See my reply above.
