Gameweek 35 comes to its conclusion this evening as Hull welcome Arsenal to the KC Stadium. After a number of their relegation rivals won over the weekend, Steve Bruce’s side sit just one point clear of the drop zone despite clinching back-to-back victories over Palace and Liverpool in their double Gameweek 34.

The Tigers backline are seeking a third straight clean sheet after upping their resilience in the fight for survival, whilst Dame N’Doye owners will be looking for more of the same after the January signing bagged a brace against Palace in the previous round of fixtures.

Arsenal, meanwhile, will be eagerly assessed by Fantasy managers with one eye firmly on double Gameweek 37. Olivier Giroud has seven goals and an assist in the last eight rounds of fixtures, whilst Alexis Sanchez has three strikes and an assist in his previous four outings in all competitions – both looked poised for significant investment as Arsene Wenger’s side prepare for three home clashes and a trip to United in the final three Gameweeks.

Aaron Ramsey, Mesut Ozil and Santi Cazorla are also vying for our attentions in the centre of the park, whilst at the back, Laurent Koscielny and co. look to extend the series of displays which have seen the Gunners concede just three times in the last seven Gameweeks.

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

        John probably made it

        (it was during his smack days so he may have swapped the meat for cat shite)

        i don't even know what it's advertising but whatever it is i'm sure it's had negative ROI

  3. FPL Maldini

    Please Wenger rest Sanchez now....2 or more goals from him and my mini league win is in jeapoardy

    1. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      No chance he'll get 4.

      1. SW6
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        There's certainly a chance.

        1. Leaf
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          He could of got 4 in 1st half

          1. Old Man
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            10 years, 8 months ago

            He could have got 4 in 1st half.
            He could've got 4 in 1st half.

    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    I would ask if I should keep Vardy and just make Rambo my third ARS option, but there's no way I'm getting any level-headed advice right now

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      + 1

      smart

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Do it before the second hal starts! 😉

    3. copps
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      thats been my plan all along. no need to sell vardy with the modfield options available

  5. Punty
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Hmm..

    A) Ramsey + Vardy
    B) Albrighton + Giroud (-4) ?

    Thinking A is better now, Vardy/albrightoin are benchplayers

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      A easily

  6. DV8R
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Which defender at 5.6m or less is worth getting in for the last 3 weeks?

    Need to downgrade Ivan to afford Sanchez and Ramsey

  7. LewanGOALski
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Hazard
    Sterling
    Sanchez
    Ramsey

    will any of those change in price tonight?
    FFF says not - should we trust them?

    1. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Nope.

  8. Tomeister
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Come on Ozil, grab a couple this half to justify getting you in instead of Ramsey.

  9. Leaf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    I know it's dull

    But hazard , aguero , Sanchez

    Just buy , put them in team and forget about them

  10. For Fuchs Sake
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Oooh Ramsey I could kiss you right now 🙂

  11. CarsonYeung
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Despite Ramsey's heroics today, I'm still considering Ozil ahead of him for t he DGW. Ozil is still a big threat and is much less likely to be rotated by Wenger IMO

    1. Leaf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      It's very close

      1. CarsonYeung
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Its easy to get caught up in all the hysteria immediately after a player gets points, but i think rotation is a serious concern. Having said that OMG ALEXISSSSSSSSSSSSSS

    2. sinik
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Rambo won't be rotated

      1. CarsonYeung
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        We all know how injury prone he is, cup final coming up, Wilshere and Ox need minutes to come back to fitness.

        1. sinik
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          yeah but Arsene wants top 3 secured and 2nd looks even better..he has a lot of haters he'll want to try and shut up

  12. Stats Don\'t Lie
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    So having Ramsey is working well so far. I think I'll just go 2 arsenal mids and a defender.

  13. PGR
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Would you do:

    A) Sterling+Henderson to Alexis+Gomez for a hit
    OR
    B) Sterling to Ozil/Ramsey for free

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      A I think

  14. gers23
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Is this stupid 4 a hit? Giroud Sterling and Toby to Tekkers Sanchez and Chester

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Nope, seems a good plan

  15. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    If already have Sanchez and Giroud, am I better to get Ramsey or an Arsenal defender?

    1. Boz
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Def

      1. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Seeing as 50% of top 10k have a defender, I feel I need to cover this

  16. Boz
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    A Hull goal would be lovely now ta

  17. joinho
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Still kicking myself for benching Coutinho, still if Ramsey gets another goal or assist and a few baps that'll make up for it!

    1. Jax
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      why would you bench for a home game v QPR

      1. joinho
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        It was between him and Henderson it was a big benching dilemma

  18. Jax
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    do people think sanchez will do as well tonight v swansea?

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      No. Swansea much better defensively, but he could easily get a goal, and hence double figures.

  19. Sean the Bean
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Best 4.8m midfielder to get Ramsey in?

    1. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Boyd.

    2. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Albrighton

  20. The Mandalorian
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Hard to believe that Sanchez isnt in the top 5 mids for the top 10K managers

  21. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Ding Ding

    Round 2

    1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      it would DEFO have been stopped

  22. joinho
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Arsenal to win 6-0, 33/1 just stuck £4 on it

    1. Jax
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      doubt it'll be that big. arsenal will probably sit back now. this usually happens when a team is so far ahead at half time.

      1. joinho
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        You're probably right but I'm feeling lucky

      2. Tomeister
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        But they need goal difference to overtake man city

  23. Mr Sarcastic
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    This made it easy to decide who to get in.
    But at the same time, I can't help thinking I'm going late for the party.

  24. Jax
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Ramsey loves playing v Hull

  25. semiconductor
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    wanted to have giroud plus sanchez and ramsey. im having a totally different idea now. what do u guys think of sanchez, ramsey and ozil as aresenal coverage and have benteke instead??

    i really need ur opinion on that

  26. whitters_2014
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    So barring a 24 goal swing arsenal are guaranteed a top 4 finish

    1. Jax
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      was pretty obvious they would be in top 4 a while ago. 8 wins in a row then 0-0 last week. winnable fixtures too.

  27. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Giroud made a selfless run for Arsenal's 3rd if anyone cares

    1. RÏɠBY
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      nah.. he just got lost

    2. No Luck
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Not the kind of player you want for FPL 😛

  28. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    How did Hull get two CSs in the DGW...

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      It was a DGW man!

    2. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      got a 2 for 1 special on a team voodoo doctor

    3. DV8R
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Because of Liverpool

    4. Konig Luther
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      it's like Austin points.. only happened in DGW

  29. Az
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    giroud, you have 45 mins to save yourself in my team or you are gone for benteke (With kosc becoming my 3rd player for the dgw)
