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.

    Going to refrain from lukaku to jesus as arsenal will play weakened team at united.

    I just posted this on twitter. Frustration is not the word..

    Watching that Atletico goal is more painful the second time. How Arsenal's leader and main centre half on the field has allowed himself to brushed off the ball so easily is so bad. 90% of defenders would deal with it comfortably, 9.999% would clean him out. Then there's our lot.

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Might as well round 9.999 to 10

      1. Deulofail
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 11 months ago

        Then it would include Arsenal defenders...

    2. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Very frustrating when you had them on the rack and had a very good chance of killing off the tie

    3. Nascimento
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      If that's ferdy or vidic or jonesy then no prisoners are taken and with some of them chances at the same time if those fall to persy or eric or rude its game over still 90 mins to go though

  8. grayedog

    0.4 ITB, 1 FT:

    DDG McCarthy
    Alonso Christensen Lowton Simpson K.Long
    Salah (C) Willian Son Mahrez Hojbjerg
    Lukaku Vardy Barnes

    GTG? I'm really worried about my DEF, but I'd love to save my FT for next week to go Lukaku->Kane, and at that point I'll have Alonso back. Worth a -4 next week to upgrade DEF now?

  9. farqy

    5 years, 11 months ago

    A. Alli & Austin
    B. Eriksen & JAyew

    Please use every ounce of your wisdom to inform my selection

    1. The Orienteer - find me in …
      • 12 Years

    3. Duffy Dunk
      • 7 Years

      As per every ounce of my wisdom, B.

    4. Ryanu2
      • 5 Years

      Limited Wisdom but B for me

  10. Syd.
    • 14 Years

    So if Arsenal get dumped out of the EL next week would it be worthwhile getting the likes of Ramsey & Monreal in for the DGW

    1. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      im strongly considering ramsey

      1. Duffy Dunk

        1. Syd.
          • 14 Years

    2. Mini Mane Mo
      • 8 Years

    RP, Bottomed.
    Sorry for the long post...trying to plan for the run in. Any input is appreciated

    1. Olee
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      DDG (Ryan)
      Bailly-Lowton-Christensen (VdH-Morgan)
      Son-Alli-Mahrez-Willian (Kennedy)
      Kane-Lukaku (Barnes)

      1Ft, 0.0ITB

      Plan is this..
      GW 36: Kaku, Mahrez, Christensen -> Jesus, Sterling, Smalling (-8, 0.7ITB)
      GW 37: Bailly -> Cedric (or any def under 5.0)
      GW 38: Alli -> Salah

      Does it look ok, or complete bonkers?

      1. Stimps
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 11 months ago

        Just do Mahrez -> Sterling this week

      First time iv actually seen McTominay in any RMT..

      1. Super Silva Haze
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 11 months ago

        Yes I have 5.0 if I do Goss to Silva

    1. farqy

      Slapstick defence

    2. Ryanu2
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Defence needs revamp imo

  17. Syd.
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    FA Cup Final is 6 days after GW38

    This is putting me off getting too many Chelsea and United players for GW37

    1. grumpyman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      6 days after 38 and your worried about starts in 37?

  18. mogadishu
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Consensus on Mahrez ➡️ Sterling for -4?

    1. grumpyman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Yah.

    2. Stimps
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      I'll be doing just that before price changes

    3. farqy
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Nah geeeeza. Stirling to be rested and a brace for mahrez. - 4 soon becomes - 20

    4. Ryanu2
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Yes Made same movev

  19. wulfrunian
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    If David Silva is out for the game against Hammers means that he is a must for the dgw.

    1. Mini Mane Mo
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      When available Silva seems to play all the games along with KDB. Might be sub out early as Pep wants to give the rest of the team pitch team ie Foden, Toure

    2. Ryanu2
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Dont think he will play both games in 37 imo

  20. Ryanu2
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Alonso Sane for Smalling Eriksen -4 this week
    Yes or no

  21. UnitednationsXI
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Madness to go into the gameweek with no city players? My ML are very tight (10point ranges) and I am hesitant to take a hit...

    DDG --- Ryan
    Maguire ● Cedric ● Lowton ---- Smalling Alonso
    Son ● Pogba ● Mahrez ● Willian --- Gross
    Kane ● Vardy ● Barnes

    A: Gross + Vardy >> hojberg + Jesus (-4)..will revert to 4-4-2 going forward

    B: Save ft but no city coverage

    C: something else? 0.1m short of mahrez > sterling. Could get sane instead but then next gw can only get one of sterling or Jesus which is a very tough choice

      - it is not just this week, though - is it?

  22. valksy
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Gents,

    Im 100 points up on my ML but Since Jan has been disastrous & been hitting below average scores. When every move was going to gold is now .... well the opposite.

    I have 10/11 players in that have doubles next week
    Ryan
    Fernandez Zanka Yedlin Chilwell Robertson
    Pogba Mahrez Alli Allen Salah
    Jesus Kaku Ayew

    Worried Kane will explode but Kaku against weak gunners

    Any point in changing?

    Thanks

  23. Bocaginge
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Worth the risk?
    Out
    Willian and De Bruyne
    In
    Sterling and Son?

  24. ChipsnGravy
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Vardy to Jesus (-4)??

    Worth it for the run in?

  25. jrant
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    who gets benched? Lingard or Barnes

  26. DrNinjamonkey

    • 7 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Pulling my hair out... HELP!

    40 points behind in ML. TC next week. This is my WC team.

    Ederson
    Lowton - Schindler - Vertonghen - (Hunmeier, Mbemba)
    Willian - Lingard - Salah - Sterling - (Carroll)
    Aubameyang - Kane - Jesus

    A) downgrade auba and upgrade William / Carroll to Arnie and someone else?
    B) downgrade someone and upgrade defence??

    Any other suggestions? 0itb

    1. Bayas'ed
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Downgrade Auba and upgrade defence IMO

      1. DrNinjamonkey

        Thanks. Any suggestions?

  27. Plagued by indecision
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    16 points behind in my mini-League. This is my team:

    De Gea, Tarkowski, Lowton, Otamendi, Salah (c), Willian, Son, Zaha, Barnes, Kane, Jesus. Subs: Hennessey, Kenedy, Morgan, Robertson.

    Fairly sure this is how my rival will line up:

    De Gea, Tarkowski, Azpilicueta, Trippier, Son, Sterling, Salah, Lingard, Kane (c), Vardy, Murray. subs: Ryan, Cork, Lowton, Chilwell.

    Questions: should I captain Kane to cover him and rely on the differentials? Should I save the FT and hope Sterling doesn’t score big?
