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.

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

    Quick question boys...

    How many bps for an assist?

    1. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      He will lose some for assist being off target... actually it shouldn’t really be an assist...

      Slouch is right

    2. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      For Sterling - 5
      For everyone else - 10

  2. VanDijksToWatchOutFor

    Is this arsenal team a flat track for lukaku to bully or does the mere labelling as a top six club make it impossible for him to score?

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

      So chelsea aint a top 6 club? Think its even 5th

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

        Okay, "highly improbable" then ;).

        I actually think it's an unfair reputation for him but he certainly has a record of getting it done against worse teams. Also, I think it has a psychological effect on him.

    Auba misses again... No courage

    How the @&&€ am I sitting with Bailly in my team?

    Got him in for the fact that he’s Man Utd’s best and most nailed defender.

    Probably cost me several hundred Euros as I’m unlikely to catch my rival who’s 32 pts ahead.

    Smalling would’ve kept me thereabout.

    1. XabiAlonso
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      I feel your pain.
      I had blind early in the season on wc didn't swap to jones when I should've and reckon it cost me about 20 or so points

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

      Definitely not best in his last 2 matches before he was dropped. He may get a game in dgw but think next season only he will get chance prove he has improved ball composure and passing

    3. Cityzen Kane
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Bs... Bailly played 10 games all year.. How the hell is he nailed?? He was out most of the year injured and ppl foolishly got him back in

      1. Cocky Spaniel Alves
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        Utd fans were lauding him after getting back against Liverpool even if he scored an own goal in that game.

  5. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    Who's the better player, Kante or Silva?

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Silva

    2. BIGREDDOG
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      My brain hurty

    3. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Not sure if trolling

      Silva

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        Trolling?

        They're the same type of player.

        1. Davido989
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 5 days ago

          Not sure what you're talking about GB

    4. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      David Silva? Can't compare a defensive mid to a playmaker

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

      Kante much more important

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

      If now the silva hands down. If future potential kante has higher upper celing as a CDM

      1. Danno - Emre Canada
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        Who’s the better player Botham or Dennis Taylor?

        1. FrankieTheGent
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 5 days ago

          Phil Taylor

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

    No saves for DDG yet? I saw him saving 2 at least wtf

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

      He's got at least 1 on FPL.

    2. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      I think the Bellerin gone was classed as a cross so it doesn’t go down as a save

  7. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    Liverpool's announcement video for Firmino's contract is pretty good...no look signature from Firmino 😀

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years

      Saturday team sheet for Liverpool out yet BF?

        His source, which clearly was twatter has stopped being a source ala AE

  8. ppv
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    Last weeks FHitters losing points this week imo. A lot still have Mahrez Willian etc. Waste of space. Double GW or not.

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

      Yep

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

      Yeah =(

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Yep - do disappointed in Mahrez

    4. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Yeah, it’s why looking solely at how many points people get on the BB and FH is too narrow. What’s been done in and around those matters, too.

    5. Clintymints
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Took the hits to get Sterling and Jesus in

      Worked out well!

      Sorting out Mahrez/Willian this week

      1. ppv
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        Well done but a lot didn't want to take hits and missed previous transfer. Might have got Zaha instead of loaning him for 1 week

    6. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Not doing Mahrez to Sterling was a big mistake, kicking myself over that one.

    7. Cityzen Kane
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      FH35 losing out on the double.. Less city players and they were the ones who had Walcott, Wilson etc for weeks coming up to 31.

    8. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Took hits and got rid of Mahrez and Willian (Robbo) >> Sterling and Sané (Yedlin) 😉

      And thanks for the warning not to get Stephens for the one who gave it.

      1. BananaNose Maldonado
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        You’re welcome 😉

  9. HurriKane
    • 13 Years

    3 saves for ddg now right?

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

      Nope - 2.

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

      1 according to fpl

    3. Rainer

  10. TLF

    How many mins do you reckon Lingard will get ?

    1. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      65

    2. Hooky
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      73

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

      20

    4. Dead Lift
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Unfortunately around 60. He is poor. But there is always hope, I need points from him desperately!

    5. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      77

    6. Andy'81
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      For the Double? 90 - 100 He rarely seems to last a full game and he's regularly brought on when not started.

    7. Clintymints
      • 16 Years

  11. general_franco
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    After today's match is it still worth bringing in KDB for the DGW? Will he even play both games?

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

      Probably

    2. FrankieTheGent
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Probably

  12. BEARDLESS GUY
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    As it stands this is my DGW team
    Ddg
    Vert chillwell Naughton
    Kenedy JWP son sterling
    Jesus Kane J.Ayew
    I have Salah I might take him out but for who? G2G?

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

    Who’s remembers when Kolasinac was an attacking essential

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Sanchez

    2. FrankieTheGent
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      The next Alonso

  14. Stoic
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    Is Lingard the best mid option for 6 mil ?
    Any other options for DGW.
    Have 3 City and 3 spurs

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

      He is good value at 6m, can't think of anyone better in this case

    2. Clintymints
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Probably

      F all for the price

    3. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Tadic if you can’t stretch to 6.2.

      1. Stoic
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        Can't.

    4. mr messi
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      He's a good pick at that price

    5. yakirh
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      For me its between him and Tadic
      Tadic is nailed and on penalties, so I'm leaning towards him

      1. Stoic
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        Austin is isn't he ?

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 5 days ago

          Yeah should be

        2. yakirh
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 5 days ago

          Hmm I think you're right, but Tadic is next on the list
          Tadic is on free kicks as well
          Seems to be in form
          Might be a knee jerk move

  15. Del Monte
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    My BB GW37

    Ederson Lloris

    Smalling Naughton Van Der Hoorn Lejeune Dummett

    Salah Eriksen Sterling Arnautovic Kenedy

    Smalling time!

  17. Sailboats

    8 years, 5 days ago

    God this game is so boring

  18. eazy
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    For the double?
    A) Willian & Jesus
    B) Sterling & Vardy

    1. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      b

  19. caldracula
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    Mawson or Laporte?

    1. william prunier
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      The nailed one

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Neither.

  20. Kun Tozser
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    Mahrez > Pogba looking worth it this week

  21. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    Non city owners like myself how do you feel ? Damage limitation I think but will need city cover next gw !

    1. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Pogba scoring softens the blow, just need Spurs to score big. Will get Sterling next gw

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        Just sterling ? You have kane i take it

        1. Ghost Gooner
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 5 days ago

          Just getting Sterling for Salah as I already have dgw players upfront. Have Kane (c) Alli and Vert

    2. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Felt sick during the match lol, played Willian instead of brining Sterling in this week. Convinced myself Conte would give him the chance to vent his frustration on pitch after early substitution last match, big mistake.

      Sterling and David Silva probably the ones coming in for me next week.

  22. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    Jesus is actually the 2nd highest bonus scorer all weekend so far (45bps). 1 point ahead of Zaha.

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Kane will change that tomorrow with a brace

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

        *Son

  23. RashFraud
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    Who to ship first?
    A. Gross
    B. Zaha
    C. Willian
    D. Monreal

    1. GOTHAM City F.C.
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      That looks like the right order

    2. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Ship Zaha ?

      1. RashFraud
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        Away form. Single game in a DGW

    3. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Monreal may not need to be shipped, see how the Atletico game goes

      1. We Will Klopp you
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        As above, right order

  24. Stimps
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    D Silva an option now for DGW?

    1. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Absolutely

    2. Bragazeti
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Definitely

    3. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Is there news on him being with team?

    4. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Yep, had his rest now

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

      Sweet

  25. Klip Klopp
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    What's the best choice for the last couple of weeks? I'm a close 2nd in my mini league

    A. Bailly + Willian + Lukaku --> Vertonghen + Pogba + Vardy for a -8?
    B. Bailly + Willian --> Dummett + Sterling -4?
    C. Lukaku + Bailly --> Jesus + Vertonghen for -4 (then have no Man United attack)

    1. Clintymints
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Need the city boys in whatever way you can. Bailly also has to go asap

    2. RashFraud
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      C

    3. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Keep Kaku, getting Dummett risky (he might get dropped). Bailly has to go

      1. Klip Klopp
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        So maybe B then? Is Sane and Sterling enough for city coverage?

        1. Ghost Gooner
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 5 days ago

          Sterling and Sane are sufficient. Might even stick the tc on Sterling

  26. Samwise the Brave
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    What a useless game from both teams. My god

    1. Clintymints
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      I'll take another half of the same please!

    2. Garlana
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Have Dave and Mike so it's going well

  27. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    Need that Utd cleanie gone!

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Only a matter of time.

  28. Hect.OR 98th
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    Salah to Sterling or Dilva for next week? Would give me 11 doublers and a TC Kane.

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      I wouldn't risk Silva.

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Sterling

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

    Please Arsenal... score a jammy goal.

  30. Cocky Spaniel Alves
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    So I’m 31 points behind my rival in my cash league.

    Our squads are very similar with only a couple of exceptions.

    Me:
    DDG Ryan
    Alonso *Bailly* Morgan Tark Lowton
    Son Alli Willian *Mahrez* *Gud*
    Kane Vardy *Murray*

    Him:
    DDG Ryan
    *Azpi* *Christ* Morgan Tark Lowton
    Son Alli Willian *Sterling* *Groß*
    Kane Vardy *Barnes*

    Thing is I’ve got two free transfers and he has only one. I also have my triple captain left, he’s used his.

    Should I just try to get maximum points or go all out for differentials, i.e. get someone like Jesus in for a hit and captain him?

    Don’t feel too hopeful of catching him to be honest cos’ our teams are so similar.

    Comments / suggestions welcome!

      No chance of catching him unless you go different.

        True.

      *Alonso*

      And when I say captain, I mean triple captain, obviously.

      You almost have to get Sterling ans Jesus

        Or Silva and Jesus to be different...

      Vardy out for Jesus looks very sensible

        Could work but I of course need to fund that with another move like Bailly > Van Der Hoorn.

          Sounds good - doesn’t look like Bailly is really playing.

      I’d do Bailly Son Vardy > Smalling Sterling Jesus if you can afford. Triple captain Kane/Jesus and pray

        Cheers. Will consider for sure.

      You got to go differential.

      Giroud for Vardy
      Gundogan for Gudmunsson
      Bernardo for Mahrez
      Davies for Bailly

      1. Cocky Spaniel Alves

        Giroud... hmmm

      You gotta go different yes. But not crazy. There’s such a thing as too many differentials.

      Arnie
      Jordan ayew
      Sane

      All could be nice. Then maybe triple captain arnie or Alonso?

        Was thinking Alonso as a potential TC but that’s a bit mad with Kane and his fixtures....

          Meh kanes hardly in the richest vein of form. Yes neither is Alonso.

          You have two weeks to catch 30+. You gotta be bold and captains the best way.
