After Man City swept aside West Ham at the London Stadium, we move to Old Trafford in Sunday’s second, and final, fixture as Manchester United entertain Arsenal at 4.30pm.

Having scored or assisted in five of his last six home fixtures, the hosts’ Romelu Lukaku is the third top captain pick in Fantasy Premier League (FPL) for Gameweek 36, with 11.42% handing him the armband.

Jose Mourinho’s side attempt to improve a run that’s delivered just two clean sheets in eight ahead of their Double Gameweek 37 trips to Brighton and West Ham.

Victor Lindelof comes in for Phil Jones at the back in the hosts’ only change, with Alexis Sanchez lining up against his former club for the first time.

Meanwhile, Arsene Wenger rings the changes ahead of Thursday’s crucial Europa League return trip to Atletico Madrid.

The most sold player (207,000+) for Gameweek 36, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang returns to Arsenal’s teamsheet – the Gabon international has produced attacking points in each of his last six league appearances.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan makes a surprise return to the Gunners’ first XI, throwing his name into the hat for a midfield slot ahead of matches with Burnley and Leicester in Double Gameweek 37.

Hector Bellerin is the only first-choice defender retained as Nacho Monreal – transferred in by over 29,000 after netting his fifth of the season last week – drops to the bench.

      Gotta think outside the box to climb. I like it and thinking of doing Barnes to Giroud myself.

    Last Man Standing Update

    Current safety score = 34
    Top score = 47
    LMS average = 29.7

    1 game + autosubs to go.

      This is actually really interesting as someone who went a different route chip-wise compared with most highly ranked players. I think I'd have been out of LMS in 34 and 35 as well (actual 33) yet I'd currently be top this week. I've a BB team for next week so hopefully will outscore the TCers to validate my choices.

        Easiest way is to compare your rank then and after GW38.

      Do City have anyone else that can play RB apart from Walker and Danilo?

        Not sure if Mendy can play there? Or if delph can play there and mendy plays LB.

          Think Danilo nailed in that position in absence of Walker

        Replace Willian for a hit to:

        2. Arnie
        3. Pogba

          Anyone keeping Willian?
          He scored against Liverpool earlier in the season and also got a goal and 2 assists against Huddersfield.
          Just hoping that Conte has gotten over Willian going straight down the tunnel in the FA Cup.

          1. Lone Wolf FPL
            • 10 Years

            think I'll keep. Sellin for -4 doesnt look good esp in this price range

          2. Pep's Money Laundry
            • 10 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            Combined points in the last 5 games is still not in the double digits. Even wba midfielders have more

            1. stat
                7 years, 7 months ago

                He's played 9 mins in the last 2 games so that's not surprising - still has decent underlying statistics.
                Just a case of him playing a significant amount of minutes in the 2 games.

            2. Maddamotha
              • 9 Years

              • 9 Years

              He's likely the makeweight if I go for Jesus.

              • 8 Years
              7 years, 7 months ago

              Maybe. Only other two I'd switch to are Ramsey or Arnautovic. An argument can be made for Tadic, but not a strong one.

              Arnie - looks great, but will West Ham play any decent football?
              Ramsey - great WHEN he plays. I'd have to wait for the result of EL.

            • 8 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            Which combo is better guys? Ideally want both Jesus and Kane, but requires extra hit.

            1) Jesus- Kane-ki song yeng-gudmo- Vdh ( 3-4-3 for -12)
            2) Kane -ayew- ramsey/arnie -gudmo- Alonso (3-4-3 for -8)
            3) Lukaku-Jesus- kisong yeng/iwobi-gudmo -verto/Bavies ( 3-4-3 for -8)
            4) Murray -Kane- Lingard/Arnie/ramsey-ki song yeng/iwobi-alonso (3-5-2 for -8)

              None of them.
              Forget Kaku and Alonso.
              Not sure about these big hits to get rubbish DGW players in.
              Bavies is good option.

            Lukaku+GroB > Jesus + D.Silva -4?

              • 10 Years

            Top 1 in the world has GW score of 16 (-4) points. Loosing that position for the first time in a long period today.

              Still Kane capt will help him

            • 12 Years

            bit peed off i got Sanchez over Kane but maybe Lukaku out will help him? Man attack is so frustrating

              • 15 Years

              He could rack up some points next gw

              ...mind you so could Kane !

              Can you get Kane anyhow?

              1. Rhinos

              7 years, 7 months ago

              Yeah, unlucky.

              If you’re chasing then Sanchez was worth a gamble.

              As you said, could pay off handomsely if Sanchez plays as striker with Lukaku out

          7. Lilac Breasted Roller
            • 8 Years

            What do we think of Sane's odds of playing both DGW games?

            1. Rhinos
              • 12 Years
              7 years, 7 months ago

              not high but he could do well enough in one game

            • 12 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            About 30 points behind. Which two mids to get for DGW?

            A. Eriksen
            B. Sterling
            C. Arnie
            D. Tadic

            Sterling will not be a differential. Have Sane. Others will be as ML leader won’t have them.

            1. Rhinos
              • 12 Years

            Anyone considering Auba over Jesus? I need someone to TC. I have Kane as a candidate, and I'm considering which is best of him, Jesus, Auba and Sterling. Any thoughts?

            A) Bednarek + Mkhi + Jesus
            B) Cedric + Arnie + Jesus
            C) Laporte + Ramsey + Jesus

            D) Naughton + Arnie + Auba
            E) Cedric + Ramsey + Auba

            F) Alonso + J.Ayew + Sterling (+4pts)

            1. Jet5605
              • 11 Years
              7 years, 7 months ago

              Although Auba is cup tied for the EL, I can't help think that Arsenal will be holding back in the league which will probably impact his returns.

              1. Deulofail
                • 9 Years
                7 years, 7 months ago

                Why would they hold back?

                  • 11 Years
                  7 years, 7 months ago

                  Avoiding injuries etc. with a view to focusing on the EL. Players not full committed. Like Liverpool yesterday

                  1. Deulofail
                    • 9 Years
                    7 years, 7 months ago

                    Well they'll probably be knocked out to the EL, but if they're still in it, the final isn't until after GW38. Remember Arsene fielding a strong team in preparation for the last EL game? If they're still in the EL, there's no reason for him not to want to gain momentum in the PL in the final few games 🙂

            Hey guys, what are my best moves here: 1 FT and 1.3 ITB

            Vardy & Salah > Jesus & Sterling for -4 hit
            Other suggestions

            DDG
            Alonso - Naughton - Morgan
            Salah - Son - Eriksen - Willian - GroB
            Lukaku - Vardy

            Ryan - Barnes - Lowton - Long

            The only thing that will compound this Bailly misery if he actually comes out of nowhere and starts the two double games back to back, bagging CS in both 😆

            Just fone a -8 on this ...

            Lukaku Valencia Groß, to
            Jesus, Alonso, Arnautovic

            Means I still have Christensen and Willian sadly. Probably not get me far but need potential big hitters on my BB

            Should I sell Salah?

            Salah + Vardy ----> Alli + Jesus

            Worth the risk?
