After Man City swept aside West Ham at the London Stadium, we move to Old Trafford in Sunday’s second, and final, fixture as Manchester United entertain Arsenal at 4.30pm.

Having scored or assisted in five of his last six home fixtures, the hosts’ Romelu Lukaku is the third top captain pick in Fantasy Premier League (FPL) for Gameweek 36, with 11.42% handing him the armband.

Jose Mourinho’s side attempt to improve a run that’s delivered just two clean sheets in eight ahead of their Double Gameweek 37 trips to Brighton and West Ham.

Victor Lindelof comes in for Phil Jones at the back in the hosts’ only change, with Alexis Sanchez lining up against his former club for the first time.

Meanwhile, Arsene Wenger rings the changes ahead of Thursday’s crucial Europa League return trip to Atletico Madrid.

The most sold player (207,000+) for Gameweek 36, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang returns to Arsenal’s teamsheet – the Gabon international has produced attacking points in each of his last six league appearances.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan makes a surprise return to the Gunners’ first XI, throwing his name into the hat for a midfield slot ahead of matches with Burnley and Leicester in Double Gameweek 37.

Hector Bellerin is the only first-choice defender retained as Nacho Monreal – transferred in by over 29,000 after netting his fifth of the season last week – drops to the bench.

    At least the gates are open for lukaku now

      Sanchez should have scored for a Lukaku assist.

    Bellerin made a great save on Alexis there, too. A shame it fell to a Pogba.

    No assist surely

      Yep 😎

      I was all set to ditch him this week for Arnie or Sane...might reconsider now!

    With a line up like that, I should sold Auba for Lukaku. LOL

    Manutd support since ever but felt a slight twinge of sadness to see Wenger emotionally walking on Oldtrafford pitch amid cheers by everyone Manutd-Arsenal supporters alike.Granted he dint win much to be called one of the best but boy he entertained us with his game managemnt. Merci Beaucoup!

      Wenger is one of the all time great managers the league has seen and they will only realize what he done for Arsenal when he is gone.

        Doesn’t win trophies

          Back to back FA cups in recent years and in the UFEA cup final this year where have you been?

          1. Coaly
            • 13 Years
            8 years, 5 days ago

            Second rate European cup because he can’t challenge for the league, or even the top 4 recently

              But put the club in a firm financial situation that should last well into this century which can not be underestimated.

              With a less shrewd manager at the helm Arsanal could have went the same way as Leeds United.

              He preformed miracles really considering the spending power he had compared to the likes of Man U Man City Chelsea and Liverpool.

                Profit over trophies - would be very unhappy with that as a fan

    When did Chucky get Pogba? Two teams?

    LOUD NOISES

  17. Brosstan

    Thats an assist. Post counts as the field of play. Bellerin blocked Alexis' shot, Pogba scored rebound.

    1. @FPL_liverbird (liverpoolfa…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      That rule needs to be changed. If it hit the post and rebounded to pogba then fine. If it hit ballerin and came to pogba then fine. But off post and Bellerin is a bit far as an Assist IMO.

      Rule change 2018/19

      1. Brosstan
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        The post is part of the field of play. It doesnt count as an extra touch or part of the goal. Its the same reason shots that hit the bar or post count as off target.

        1. @FPL_liverbird (liverpoolfa…
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 5 days ago

          Well I think, along with maybe a few others that the rule should change. It's a big extreme in my view.

      2. HNI
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        I think bellerin should technically get the assist

      Surely you played a Burnley defender?

      1. Call Me Old Fashioned
        • 15 Years

        Yeah I did but so did everyone.

          You wouldnt have anyone got in top 3 to get rewards and managed an amzing top 1k finish. Be happy about that as most here would have never experienced top 1k me included 🙂

  21. Winter_is_coming
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    LOL. ABSOLUTELY LOL.

    I`m benched Ryan, Pogba and Tarkowski. Play DDG, Austin and Morgan.

    1. Zilla
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Your fault for benching Pogba

      1. Winter_is_coming
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        I play Austin and generally understand the risk...

    2. E25
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      You have Pogba and benched him......

    3. Duffy Dunk
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Why play Austin and Morgan?
      Pogba and Tarkowski were the obvious picks

      1. HNI
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        Yes actually after morgan bench last week. I subbed him for dunk for same reason

  22. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    A) Mahrez to Pogba (no other MUN attack)
    B) Mahrez to Ramsey (if arsenal out of EL + b/c no other ARS)
    C) Other

  23. Patch

    Good news is I can definitely see a Lukaku Goal on the horizon, bad news I am not sure if he looks lovely enough for a Hattie or even brace

    1. GOTHAM City F.C.
      • 9 Years

      OG?

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years

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

      I can't see it. Lukaku doesn't look up for it IMO.

    4. Patch
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Alrite guys last time I put my mouth on the line, I said I would eat my own turd if Mahrez blanked...still cant get that $hit out of my mouth...
