Monitor – Gabriel Jesus

Just three Gameweeks now stand between Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers and the long, dark teatime of the soul that is the summer break.

Yet with mini-league titles still to settle and another Double Gameweek on the horizon, difficult line-up decisions continue to present themselves. After a pair of red-hot Gameweeks across which his Man City side have racked up an impressive eight goals, Gabriel Jesus has firmly inserted himself into the Fantasy conversation and summarily dismantled the Wildcard template frontline of a Harry Kane – Romelu Lukaku/Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang – Jamie Vardy triumvirate.

With goals in each of his last three starts, should Jesus displace one of his fellow heavy-hitters within our frontlines? And how much should we consider sacrificing to ensure we have the Brazilian on board?

In this latest Monitor article for members, we will be breaking down the striker’s season, recent form, and evaluating his potential over the final handful of games versus altnernative targets in the Man City squad.

    In some ways the sending off could make Arsenals job of scoring more difficult. They struggle if not allowed to counter attack

    Ditch your Leciester players now. Rotation central. Puel giving the fringe players a run out to see if he wants to keep them for next season/offer new contracts.

      Good news as albrighton owner ?

        I think Puel needs wins because of unrest amongst the fans so he should keep a relatively strong side.

          Leicester fans are idiots. Do they think they should be winning the title again? Be careful what you wish for - look at Southampton and WBA

            As a Liverpool fan, if we won the league like Leicester did, I wouldn't care what happened in the next 7 seasons.

            Bit of an over-generalisation there!

            NOTHING will ever compare to us winning the league and there are seldom Leicester fans who think we can realistically challenge again anytime soon - the big boys have flexed their muscles now.

            As fans though we do hope for entertaining football - at present it's as dull as I've ever known it, which is the biggest gut punch. Fans generally are turning on Puel for the fact they are bored to the high heavens at matches.

              Exactly why Saints got rid of him end of last season. But I would give him a chance to build next season. Some Leicester players seemed to have downed tools.

      Vardy too?

      1. FPL Virgin

        See above.

    Bit harsh ref gave 2 early yellow cards but both were bookable offences.

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 days ago

      Ref did the right thing. Vrsaljko was so stupid to commit on a yellow.

      1. Sim Simma
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 8 days ago

        Sakho 2.0

      2. ZeBestee
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 8 days ago

        Right, reminds me of the 2006 CL final when the ref ruthlessly sent off Jens Lehmann early on. Payback time i reckon.

  11. Ghost Gooner

    Zlatan/Bellerin face swap off now the manager, if we don't win this 2-0 we don't deserve to go to the final

  12. diesel001

    Ref is pissed off with Atletico. Arsenal need to win some cheap fouls and dive around to get some more Atletico players sent off.

    2nd yellow looked worse than it was imo, he actually played the ball and bounced of it into Lacazette

  14. Heavy Soul
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 8 days ago

    A) Lukaku > Kane (-4)
    B) Mahrez > Sterling (-4)
    C) Both (-8)
    D) Hold

    1. The Overthinker
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 days ago

      C

  15. 1zverGGadeM
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 8 days ago

    Vardy+Mahrez>>>>WHO FOR -8?
    0.0itb and No City coverage

    1. The Overthinker
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 days ago

      Kdb and ayew?

      1. 1zverGGadeM
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 8 days ago

        Not worried about KDB game time till the end?

        1. The Overthinker
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 8 days ago

          Nope. I believe he will play 330+ mins till the end

    2. Heavy Soul
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 days ago

      Jesus + Arnie?

      1. 1zverGGadeM
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 8 days ago

        Looks good as an option too. Thanks!

      Was just about to ask this question.
      a) Vardy & Mahrez OR
      b) Sterling & Jesus for a -8

    Just seen this post by Sanchez on Random Name's post about Lacazette:

    https://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2018/04/22/dugout-discussion-sunday-12/?hc_page=34#hc_comment_18065138

    Absolutely brilliant, bravo!

      Were you searching through his posts or something to find that?

      1. SEXY SON
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 8 days ago

        I just remembered Lacazette scoring at the weekend so went to the dugout article wondering if he had posted and low and behold found it straight away to my amusement.

        Even more hilarious was reading his comments history.....EVERY single one of them about Lacazette lol

        1. Les Bleus

      I mean it is more poor shooting by Arsenal. Weak shots or directed too close to the GK.

    Haha “Simeone can’t find a seat, he would’ve had no problem at the weekend” 😀
