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

    I really wish to bring back time and to make that Saturday morning transfer Fabregas to Ramsey. It really hurts 🙁 🙁 🙁 Any consolation words?

      i told you so 😉

  2. McSauce
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Fabregas and Sterling ---> Sanchez and Ramsay with 2FT it is then!

    1. AleksanderVN
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Yeah, got to be. As long as they stays injury free

  3. sinik
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    so I did Costa > Giroud for this week..already had Aguero and Benteke..really starting to regret it as I'm starting to think that Ramsey/Ozil, Sanchez and Kosc is the best way forward for the DGW

  4. Bøss ⭐
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Sorry for the repost - I've been leading my master league the entire season until this week, my rival was 14 points behind but had Myhill in goal, benteke captained, and sanchez & bellerin while I have neither - it's not looking good!!

    2FTs, here's my team and his:

    Panti (Heaton)

    Ivanovic, Clyne, Skrtl (Hutton, PVA)

    Hazard, Fabregas, Silva, Sterling, Henderson

    Aguero, Vardy, Kane

    His team is:

    Myhill

    McAuley, Ivanovic, Bertrand (Cresswell, Bellerin)

    Hazard, Sanchez, Sterling, Young (Cambiasso)

    Benteke, Aguero, Vardy

    I think my main priority is getting Sanchez and probably another Arsenal player ready for the DGW, probably Ramsey - any other ideas?

    1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Master League? 😯
      Too high level for me

    2. Ange Ball
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Ozil

  5. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    A bit of movement in the top 10. 2 Sanchez owners & 1 Ramsey owner.

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Simon will be worried

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        5,6 and 8th. Could be worse.

  6. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    They had to explode this week damn it. I planned Ramsey and Alexis in next week. Arrhh. I hate MNF !!!

    3. Back on the horse
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      I saw that and thought- it wont be 1-1 then

  8. johnny_
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Well, Sanchez(C) looking good. I finally make a good captain call and with him and Coutinho I am closing down on a 60 point deficit on my minileague leader before this GW. Good times! 🙂

  9. Ange Ball
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    What do I do with this team rivals ahead now 60pts

    Krul Given
    Bellerin Ivan Skrtel Azi PVA
    Hazard Hendo Sterling Walters Silva
    Aguero Giroud Kane

    1.7m in Bank

  10. The Enlightener
    • 12 Years

    Aluko should change his name to Apuko because he's about as good as throw up.

    1. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      This is not one your best 😉

      1. The Enlightener
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        I know. It was pretty juvenile. Had serious thoughts of scrapping it, but went for it anyways. 🙁

    2. RÏɠBY
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      while nDoye definetly derseves his name

  11. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Arsenal DGW is timing nicely with Utd's awful form too 😀

    1. whitters_2014
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      United always up their game but we have proved we can best them

  12. Pringle
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Is a punt on Kolarov too crazy?

    1. Demí
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Yes/ Clichy back now

      1. Pringle
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Back from injury and Kolarov played well lately. You think Clichy will come straight in?

        1. Demí
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Maybe not, but can't see him being benched for the rest of the season. Why not get an Arsenal or Sunderland defender?

          1. Pringle
            • 12 Years
            10 years, 9 months ago

            Filled up with Arsenal up front and already have 2 sunderland players in defence.

            1. Demí
              • 15 Years
              10 years, 9 months ago

              Fair enough. Punt on Wickham/Defoe instead?

              Kolarov is probably favourite to start again this week, but not after that.

        2. Konig Luther
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          probably no.. but they will rotate

    2. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      No, pondering it myself.

  13. madame shelly
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    wish i hadnt botherd with giroud - looking very lazy. better options there think i will ditch him for tekkers and get in ramsey and sanchez

  14. Numb
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    All kneejerking aside...

    Ramsey or Koscielny?

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Ramsey

    2. Zombie
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Ramsey

    3. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Dodge Ramsey

  15. Ed
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Have exact cash to do Clyne + Sterling > Kosc + Ramsey (-4).

    Can I afford to wait?

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Doubt it after tonights performance.

  16. Mo Mané Mo Problems
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    -12 for this team:

    Myhill (Rose)
    Terry, Wasilewski, Kos (Skrtel, Alder)
    Sanchez, Ramsey, Silva, Hazard, Albrighton
    Benteke, Aguero (Kane).

    0.0 ITB

    Sitting at 6-7k. Thought it was time to turn it up a notch.

  17. boc610

    the fickleness on here over Giroud is getting really tiresome..'he's amazing...hes a donkey..he's amazing...hes a donkey'. Him and Downing, anyone who owns them treats them like sh it on their shoe most of the time.

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      He's an amazingly efficient donkey. End of.

      Always has been. Always will be.

    2. Mílanista
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      He's always been a donkey to me. First time owner.

    3. RÏɠBY
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      in real life he's a donkey.. sometimes he works in fantasy land
      but arsenal need a decent striker

      i'd love to know what henry said about him

    4. Numb
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      He's bang on form with a DGW coming up.

    5. sinik
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      my concern, that I didn't consider earlier, is that he might not even play vs United

    6. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Never said anything other than he's a donkey.

  18. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    I can see Giroud been among the goals in the DGW, esp against Sunderland

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Atm I can't see him at all 😆

    2. sinik
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      my concern, that I didn't consider earlier, is that he might not even play vs United

      1. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        I know Wellbeck may get a chance at OT, but why change a wining team!

        1. sinik
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Wenger is stubborn about changing his team but I have this bad feeling haha

  19. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Typical if Arsenal doesn't score anymore goals..

    1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      will cost me 140 quid. Don't say that

    2. RÏɠBY
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      only if it's handed to them on a plate

  20. Ed
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Starting Krul over Myhill for the last three has cost me 29 points 🙁

    1. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      It's understandable though, Newcastle have been in good form.

      1. BabyB
        • 12 Years

      2. Zombie

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

        I know, glad you can see my reasoning.

  21. Colonel Shoe 肝池
    • 14 Years

    come on pakistan we can overhaul these irish pig dogs 😉

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years

      Wrong Article 😉

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years

      Racist

    3. Lawrø
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Assuming things stay as they are, Sanchez gets 3bps and Ramsey gets 2bps... we're ahead by 11pts

    4. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Am I playing?

      1. Lawrø
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah Doos, nice score 🙂

        1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years

          Oh, good - I thought I might be benched.

  22. JayBomb
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Is Sanchez, Rambo and Cazorla too much inv in the mid. With Cazorla on peno's it could pay off?

    1. Ser Football 42
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Could work out great

    2. Der Wall
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      I am planning just to do that. Already hv Sanchez and Caz in my mid line. Will use the 1FT next week either to get Ramsey, Giroud or Koscielny. Depends on the result today

  23. joinho
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    I had OR of 46,002 before tonights game, I own Ramsey will it be a green arrow?

    1. CarsonYeung
      • 13 Years

      huge red m8

    2. sinik
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      not enough info to go on..what was your score/gw rank before today?

      1. joinho
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        This GW: before tonight - 42 points gw rank 709,191

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

          maybe a small green..doubt it though

  24. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    So is it worth doing Sterling > Ramsey this week for an overall -8 as I've done two FTs already and don't fancy both Sterling & Hendo v Chelsea

  25. SW6
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    I think if Bellerin got attacking points it would all just be too much.

  26. The Iron Tulip
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Was set all week on bringing in Sanchez (c) but then read about Aguero's record against Spurs so brought him in instead, really annoyed!

    1. sinik
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      it's not a huge difference in points

  27. Robe Wan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Romeo must Ndoye

  28. BOROBINGO
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Is gomez from sunderland worth looking at bringing in you guys think?

    1. sinik
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      I am for Hendo..just basically frees up more money and there's only one gameweek after that

      creates a couple chances a game and has been taking corners

  29. Wouter
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    A quick striker like Lacazette would be insane in this side, or even Aubameyang.

  30. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Arsenal strolling to victory here which begs the question, How the hell did Liverpool lose to Hull last week?

    1. Demí
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Liverpool's front 4 aren't half as good

      1. Sp0rting
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        But it was a DGW so that counts twice, right?

    2. sinik
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      because Liverpool are awful

    3. The Bandit
      • 15 Years

      Gulf in class
