Monitor – Alexis Sanchez

11 April 2018 1069 comments

Having struggled to make an impact in his opening matches for Manchester United, Alexis Sanchez has made a timely return to form ahead of Double Gameweek 34.

Back-to-back double-digit hauls against Swansea and Man City, denying the latter of the title at the Etihad Stadium, has reignited confidence in the Chilean’s Fantasy prospects.

With Jose Mourinho’s men set for a kind pair of fixtures against West Brom and Bournemouth, Sanchez looks a ready-made differential in Fantasy Premier League (FPL), boasting a 3% ownership.

In this latest Monitor article for members’, we run the rule over Sanchez’s recent form for the Old Trafford outfit to assess whether he could be worth the hefty 11.5 outlay.

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

    A. Sanchez and Aubameyang (no hit)
    B. Lukaku and Eriksen -4
    C. Kane and Mahrez -4 (already have Vardy)

    Triple captain willl be played this week for first player in each option.

    Thoughts??

    Rock bottomed....

    How does this look? I'm playing BB. Also who should I captain?

    De Gea / Ryan
    Duffy/ Bailly / Morgan / Ward / Lowton
    Salah / Mahrez / Son / Willian / RLC
    Lukaku / Kane / Barnes

        Basically yea. I feel Alexis will storm it (15+ points)

        I also think Sonny will only get one game (likely the MCY one) and Mahrez has been out of sorts last 2 games.

          I think Alexis has had two reasonable performances, they just happen to have come in the last two weeks. But hey, people are getting in Pogba after a good 45 mins so what do I know...

            It's not about the two good previous games... Alexis has prem pedigree. He has 2 great fixtures as well.

            Unfortunately, I may have to go without 🙁

              Alexis has been hit and miss at best this season (and mainly miss, let's be honest). I sure as hell wouldn't be ripping my team up to get him in as the second most expensive player in the game (?)

      Same position. I think you need to consider 37 here too. My reason for not getting Sanchez is that I'd struggle to be flexible in 36-37. With Lingard it seems a worthwhile risk and I'm more likely to hang on to him throughout.

        Totally agree and that's what I'm thinking. Groß has horrific fixtures in 37/8, so the hit probably pays off over the rest of the season?

        You might end up chasing more than 36, consider that too. Never choose a player because he's a differential but because you think he's the best option. The differential part should just be a bonus

          Well im not keen on Lukaku.
          That's the easiest option for me.
          Lukaku only has 3x double digit pts this season so far.

            Also has far fewer blanks than those with more double digit returns. That's why he's the fourth highest scoring forward and 13th highest scoring player in the game. It's a balance

      probably not worth a hit, i've got Lingard but wouldn't be surprised with a little rotation in DGW, but i expect Gross will play both of his - that being said if it was free i'd probably make the transfer

      if you are confident you want Lingard for the rest of the season then take the hit

        Because I'd rather Kane than Auba and need the funds from Son. Son is also a chance of a rest right before the FA Cup.

    I have SanChez and Willian. Watched scoutcast and now I have second doubt. FHers; is Willain still in your team?

      Think the value of Willian means that he's worth the (very real) rotation risk

    Afternoon,
    Bit of advice needed, am I good to start this team or is it worth a hit to bring in another DGW, possibly someone like Lingard for Shaqiri?.... but he would be useful for GW35.

    Also Kane or Lukaku TC, any thoughts?

    Season defining GW or is that every GW. Cheers

      I'd make sure I had Heaton on the bench. And check on Mee's fitness. And have more than one City player. And more than two Liverpool players

        Issue is that I've got Kane as my 3rd striker. Could hokey-cokey Firmino in and put but is that worth two hits? Maybe not.

        Ideally though, you're right.

      Lingard just might be worth a hit yeah but it's close. Triple captain call is tough, I would maybe save for Kane in 37 if you can
