Gameweek 21 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues at 16:30 GMT on Sunday, as Arsenal and Manchester United go head-to-head at the Emirates Stadium.

Mikel Arteta’s line-up is unchanged from the one that beat Tottenham Hotspur last weekend, with new signing Leandro Trossard named among the substitutes.

As for Man Utd, Scott McTominay starts in place of the suspended Casemiro.

“We have a special role in mind for him – we hope it works well, it did last time.” – Erik ten Hag on Scott McTominay

Anthony Martial, meanwhile, is absent from the matchday squad through injury, so Wout Weghorst starts again up top.

Arsenal XI: Ramsdale, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko, Partey, Xhaka, Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli, Nketiah

Subs: Turner, Tierney, Smith Rowe, Holding, Tomiyasu, Trossard, Vieira, Sambi, Marquinhos

Manchester United XI: de Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Martinez, Shaw, McTominay, Eriksen, Antony, Fernandes, Rashford, Weghorst

    That Rashford goal was filthy with a cheeky nutmeg on Partey

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

      It was all about the assist!

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Classic assist

  2. banskt
    • 12 Years

    Benching Rashford coming back to me!

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      When I saw you your post earlier about this I though "Why has he done that!!?". Then I looked at my squad ...... I've done the same!!! Duh.

      1. banskt
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        That was majestic by Rashford. Have to give him that.

  3. The-Red-1

    Are we back to permacap Haaland? Deviated and stung this week!

    1. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Rashford or Bruno next week

    2. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Nah Rashy next week easy

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

      Even if Rashford only has one game he's probably the better captain this GW.

    4. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Be Rashford next GW, was just unfortunate if not capped Haaland this GW as a nice springboard into next GW

    5. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      i seem to be passing it between him and Rashford atm. Worked so far.

      Back to Rashy next week.

    6. Botman and Robben
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Not yet. Rashford up next.

    7. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Nah doubler if confirmed

    8. ceejay106

      No. It’s just boring. I’m ranked around 2m and I’m 80 points behind in my ML where everyone captains him every week. The only way to make real gains is backing against Haaland. I’ve gone Kane this week. It also makes it more interesting. I can’t remember such a boring FPL season.

  4. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Average score around 65-80 this week?

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

      Think it was around 60 before Rashford scored, LiveFPL hasn't updated since, 70+!

      1. JBG
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Oh yeah, probably wasn't updated here.

      2. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …

    4. banskt

      Top 10k is 79 at this point.

      1. banskt

        oops. Typo. 69.8

        1. GENERATION X
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          good i was thinking its getting harder than ever

    5. Tic Tacs
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I'm not getting much above 60 this week, not gone well

  5. dshv
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Is it time of almiron to Mitoma or another chance ?

    1. :
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Alminonessentialron.

  6. Ze_Austin
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    White off for Tomiyasu

    1. El Presidente
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      What?????

      1. La Roja
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        He said White off for Tomiyasu

      2. Ze_Austin
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Hopefully tactical due to his yellow

      3. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Been struggling against Rashy + YC.

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Had the worst luck with White this season. Played him over Shaw too - luckily Cancelo auto-sub, but won't matter much.

    3. Tic Tacs
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I play White = rubbish
      I bench White = 7/8 pts

  7. Salarrivederci
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    How is this for a WC team?

    1.2 ITB (enough for Bruno and Nketiah -> Mitoma + Kane in near future)

    Meslier
    Trippier - Shaw - Estupinan
    KDB - Fernandes - Rashford (C) - Saka - Ødegaard
    Haaland - Nketiah

    (Ederson, Ferguson, Burn, Bueno)

    1. Salarrivederci
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Ederson and Burn in for Meslier and Estupinan for DGW23, and hopefully save FT

    2. bso
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Mahrez over KDB for me and upgrade elsewhere.

      1. Salarrivederci
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Fair enough, but don't need to upgrade anywhere?

        Only want Kane, but not before GW26.

        Fernandes and Nketiah looks decent for the next GWs, and then swap to Mitoma and Kane for free around 26-27

    3. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Like it, feel though Kane is needed

      1. Salarrivederci
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks.
        He is, but not with
        CITY, leicester, WEST HAM, CHELSEA

        Think those with double or Bruno can match with
        (PALACE, LEEDS), leeds, LEICESTER, BRENTFORD

  8. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Unlucky White owners

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

      Probably lucky, his score was going - before it was going +.

  9. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    White off

  10. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    White 0p auto sub for cancelo, lewis, ake 1p

  11. Jimmers
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Ben White off the bench for Cancelo 🙁

  12. Sandy Ravage
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    First Lewis, now White

  13. El Presidente
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Classic

  14. GENERATION X
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Saves getting a red which was coming

  15. gooberman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Another early sub off for Ben White. Not on a clean sheet this time.

  16. El Presidente
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Does that mean Shaw wins ot better wait? 🙂

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

      Shaw might get 0 too.

      1. El Presidente
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Indeed

  17. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Tomiyasu winner incoming

  18. DycheDycheBaby
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Argghh. The 1st Zero pointer for White this season.

  19. MIGHTY JOE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years

    White donut locked!

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years

      Prefer red velvet myself

  20. SirWenger
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Ben what did you do?

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

      He became Ben Yellow, was heading to be Ben Red.

      1. Ze_Austin
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        lmfao

  21. Scalper
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    If Rashy gets 1 BP, I'll be in with 73pts and kane and mitro to go. Gutted I captained KDB over Haaland. Could've really made a jump in rank. 11 point loss I believe for those who took the same punt.

  22. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Subbed White off ‘cos of the yellow. Can you do the same with the manager? Bring the assistant into the technical area.

  23. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Think White has to go?

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah - what about bring in Cancelo? 😀

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Uh?

  24. Ze_Austin
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    This match wants a red

    1. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      'wants'?

      1. Ze_Austin
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Anthropomorphising for fun 😀

  25. Sandy Ravage
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Do FA & League cup bookings count towards overall bookings

    Rash mahrez mitoma martineli, Almiron to:

    A) odegard (want him gw23 but dont know for whom)
    B) saka (feel he will haul vs everton)
    C) rodrigo
    D) bruno (my main transfer but i started to doubt it)

  28. Jones Kusi
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Best option?
    A. KDB, Andreas > Bruno, Odegaard
    B. James, Mitrovic > Stones, Nketiah

    1. Alan The Llama
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A

  29. Tonyawesome69
    • 7 Years
