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.

    Thoughts on David Silva as a double gameweek option?

    Will he play both games?

    Have Baily... switch to Smalling or Ota for the DGW?

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

      Not convinced Ota starts both (and if he does, City still leaking the odd goal). Probably go for Smalling out of the two.

      he's right, xhaka is a joke

      What is he saying? Hardly the best pundit around.

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

        Was raging that Xhaka failed to tackle Pogba

      2. boc610
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        hes not the best pundit around but he can spot a player who's been coasting it for two seasons now and who doesnt seem to be getting any instructions to change his game from the manager or coach

      3. lugs
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        Graeme Souness has launched a blistering attack on Arsenal captain Granit Xhaka at half-time after his hapless slide tackle in the build-up to Pogba's goal.

        "Get there and stand up. Commit a cute foul if necessary. Don't sell yourself as simply as that. That is for TV cameras and people sitting in Row Z. it's kid-on football.

        "I'm sorry, but it's more of the same from Arsenal. That guy is 25 years old, he's been at Arsenal for two years. Is that the first time he has done that in a game? No.

        "He has cost them that goal. When it comes to the critical things in the game they are not professional. I said a decade ago they need a couple of men to sort those things out. Nobody is pointing the finger at Xhaka to stay 'stay on your feet don't do that you fool'."

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

          Souness stating the obvious, there.

    Anybody know why Danny Simpson didn’t play yesterday?

    3. Rainer

      Puel isn't a fan.

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

      Not first choice (and I think Leivester are in for a new RB this summer). I reckon he starts next match unless Amartey is fit enough. Still, Leicester defense is awful of late.

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

        I have him, Masuaku and Lowton (SGWer), in my team and have to play one of replace one. Do you reckon there's a chance Simpson starts both games in the DGW? As far as I knew he was nailed till the end of the season haha

  17. boc610
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    granit xhaka being allowed commit the same errors over and over again without any repercussions perfectly sums up Arsenal and Wenger over the last decade

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

      Agreed.

  18. DR0GBA
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    For DGW37:

    A) Sterling, Sane, Alli/Son, Willian (-8)

    B) Sterling, Sane, Silva, Willian (-8)

    C) Sterling, Eriksen, Sane, Lingard (-8)

    D) Mahrez, Hazard, Lingard, Willian (no hit)

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

      A or C

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

      Are these 4 players you will have after the hits, or two that you're transferring to the other two? Would help if you gave your current 11.

      1. DR0GBA
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        Current team looks like:

        DDG
        Morgan, Mustafi, Vert
        Hazard, Mahrez, Lingard, Willian
        Kane, Vardy, Murray

    So bored of the Bud Light 'dilly dilly' advert. Quite like the sound of the wine that guy who goes to the pit of misery has. Being restricted to Bud Light only would be s***e IMO.

  20. El-Kloppico
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    Just need a Lukaku goal for me to go 1st in my ML.. wow!
    Leader has been leading since GW1 and was 120pts over me. Would be a great accomplishment if I can win it..

    1. SouthCoastSaint
      • 14 Years

      Great effort

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years

      Keep hoping. But Utd have looked crap offensively.

    3. Viper
      • 16 Years

      Excellent. Sounds like he's on the ropes either way

  21. SouthCoastSaint
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    Tarkowski, Willian, bailey to sterling, 4.0 and Laporte/Danilo? -8

    Rival has sterling already, I have sane

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

      Not Danilo - Laporte out of the two if you are going City defence. No huge need to get rid of Tarko, but could you stretch to 4.1m (Bedarnek)?

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

    Which one?
    A) Laporte, Willian, Jesus
    B) Yoshida, Sterling, Vardy

    1. SouthCoastSaint
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      B

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

    Keep double MUN with DeGea and Smalling or do DeGea->Courtois to cover them too?
    Not enough money for any nailed Chelsea def.

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

      Keep DDG. Two good fixtures, Courtois plays Liverpool in one of his dgw games

      1. Duffy Dunk

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Keep. Chelsea defence has been suspect. Will probably concede vs. Liverpool and knowing us, I wouldn't be surprised if Huddersfield netted one past us too!

  24. HD7

    Have Tark coming in for Baily... finally a nice sub

  25. jdp219

    DDG, Ryan
    Azpi, Robertson, Lowton, Chilwell, Mariappa
    Salah, Mili, Son, Eriksen, Gudmundsson
    Kane(tc), Jesus, Barnes

    So many possibilities for dgw37 (thanks in advance!!):
    1) Azpi, Robbo > Smalling, Ota
    2) Azpi, Gud > Smalling, Tadic
    3) Azpi, Barnes > Smalling, JAyew/Perez
    4) Robbo, Barnes > Cedric, Perez
    5) Robbo, Gud > Mawson, Kenedy
