Aubameyang benefits in Lacazette’s absence as Watford assets impress

An entertaining 2-2 draw at Vicarage Road is the focus of our latest Scout Notes article, as we run the rule over Manchester City’s Gameweek 6 opponents and assess Arsenal’s latest away-day display.

Watford 2-2 Arsenal

  • Goals: Tom Cleverley (£4.9m), Roberto Pereyra (£5.8m) | Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.0m) x2
  • Assists: Gerard Deulofeu (£6.2m) | Sead Kolasinac (£5.4m), Ainsley Maitland-Niles (£5.1m)
  • Bonus: Aubameyang x3, Deulofeu, Cleverley x2

There have been, to varying degrees, significant changes at Watford and Arsenal since we last wrote about these two clubs in a Scout Notes article.

The struggling Hornets dispensed with the services of Javi Gracia during the international break and reappointed former boss Quique Sanchez Flores, who returned to Vicarage Road after a three-year absence.

While perhaps not quite as seismic, Friday afternoon brought the news that Arsenal will be without Alexandre Lacazette (£9.4m) until October, an injury blow that has implications for the likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.0m) and Nicolas Pepe (£9.4m) as Fantasy assets – something we will discuss further down this article.


Sunday was our first look at Watford in the second Flores era and the impressions were fairly positive, even if the Spaniard’s pragmatic reputation and defence-first policy have so far done little to stem the flow of goals being conceded.

Miracles can’t be expected after one week, of course, and there’ll be many Fantasy managers hoping that the Hornets are still penetrable when they head north to the Etihad next weekend.

Flores lined his troops up in a 4-2-3-1 for this game, with Kiko Femenia (£4.4m) and Jose Holebas (£4.8m) as his two full-backs.

Watford looked particularly vulnerable in the wide areas during the last 25 minutes of the first half and it was no coincidence that both of Arsenal’s goals during this period were assisted by the Gunners’ overlapping full-backs, with Sead Kolasinac (£5.4m) and Ainsley Maitland-Niles (£5.1m) supplying the passes that Aubameyang converted.

Pepe had earlier fired a warning shot narrowly wide of Ben Foster‘s (£4.9m) goal when cutting in off the right flank and Aubameyang was inches away from turning in Mesut Ozil‘s (£7.3m) low pass from the same wing.

What makes it difficult to appraise Watford’s defensive credentials going into Gameweek 6 is that: a) they shaded possession for much of the game and that: b) Arsenal’s brief threat mostly came on the counter-attack – neither scenario being likely when the Hornets take on Pep Guardiola’s side next Saturday.

No Premier League side allowed fewer shots than Watford in Gameweek 5 and in truth their backline had a quiet second 45 minutes as the two-goal deficit elicited a second-half siege from the hosts.

Flores said after full-time:

We had to care about the defence this week and we didn’t prepare to have 31 attempts at goal. It just happened. We just kept switching the play in the second half and this is how it happened. Sometimes this is possible.

While lone striker Andre Gray (£5.9m) and wide-right midfielder Will Hughes (£5.5m) struggled to make much of an impression in the 4-2-3-1 and were ultimately hooked early in the second half, two Watford attackers who caught the eye were Gerard Deulofeu (£6.2m) and Tom Cleverley (£4.9m).

Deulofeu being stationed on the left flank may be off-putting to some Fantasy managers given that he is an FPL forward but he was Watford’s biggest threat all afternoon, causing Maitland-Niles lots of problems and repeatedly cutting inside to fire off shots – a couple of which flashed narrowly wide of Bernd Leno‘s (£5.0m) goal.

While his assist for Cleverley’s strike was a fortuitous one – the former Everton and Barcelona man intercepting a farcical pass out from Sokratis (£5.0m) – Deulofeu deserved his first attacking return of the season and it will be interesting to monitor his displays for when Watford’s fixtures really ease up in Gameweek 10.

Cleverley is not a name we Fantasy managers have considered for a long, long time (if ever) but his performance on Sunday was eye-catching, particularly as he was stationed in an advanced number ten role and given that he is now available for less than £5.0m.

This isn’t merely a kneejerk response to him scoring a goal – the all-action, high-pressing Cleverley was a threat all afternoon, forcing Leno into an early save and having as many shots as the entire Arsenal team managed combined.

Todd Cantwell (£4.8m) remains the stand-out sub-£5.0m midfield option but having another attacking midfielder available in this price bracket would be a welcome prospect for those of us trying to scrimp in midfield; time will tell if Cleverley can replicate this display and indeed become a regular starter in his new manager’s team.

Flores has plenty of attack-minded options available to him, of course, and it was interesting to note that FPL midfielder Ismaila Sarr (£6.4m) was thrown on up front in the second half, with Roberto Pereyra (£5.8m) replacing Hughes on the right.

Troy Deeney (£6.3m) – scorer of 13 goals in Flores’ previous spell in charge – will surely have a big part to play when he returns in November but there was no sign of Danny Welbeck (£6.0m) in the matchday squad, with his absence so far unexplained.

In Deeney’s absence, it was Pereyra who stepped up from 12 yards to draw the scores level at 2-2 after David Luiz (£5.9m) had chopped the Argentina international to the floor.

After keeping a rare away clean sheet in Gameweek 1, Arsenal’s defence has reverted to type and is now looking as unappealing as ever from a Fantasy perspective.

Watford had 31 shots against Unai Emery’s side, the most the Gunners have allowed in a single game since Opta began collecting this data 16 years ago.

The north London outfit have now allowed more attempts on goal than any other Premier League club in 2019/20.

The blows were self-inflicted, too, with Luiz needlessly giving away a penalty and Sokratis gifting Watford possession in the Arsenal area to hand the Hornets a route back into the game.

These weren’t isolated incidents, with Matteo Guendouzi (£4.6m) twice very nearly costing his team goals with individual errors and Emery’s insistence on his side playing out from the back looking like Watford’s best chance of scoring.

When asked about the tactic, Emery said after full-time:

Yes, but after their goal, we tried once more and we broke their lines and we get into the attacking third with space. We didn’t achieve good chances in less moments we did that, but we need to repeat and we need also to have the capacity and to improve with being able to break when the teams want to press us like today.

For those with Aston Villa, Manchester United and Bournemouth attacking assets, there were plenty of encouraging signs ahead of their encounters with the Gunners over the coming three weeks.

There wasn’t much to crow about further forward but this was one of Ozil’s better away displays (faint praise), with the German – occupying the number ten role in a 4-4-2 diamond – ‘assisting the assister’ for Arsenal’s second goal having almost supplied a goal for Aubameyang shortly beforehand.

This wasn’t really a game to judge Dani Ceballos (£5.7m), given Arsenal’s loss of control in the second half.

The on-loan midfielder will perhaps come into his own when the Gunners boss possession (as they did in Gameweek 2 and as they will expect to do in many of their upcoming fixtures) but, after playing a key role in the opening goal and showing glimpses of promises in the first half, the Spaniard was a bystander and eventually replaced on the hour-mark.

Asked why he had substituted Ceballos, Emery replied:

But today it was very, very hot. We needed in the second half, some fresh players. We were struggling second half and I was thinking how we can improve with three players, fresh players, for give us more energy and give us also more capacity to be strong physically and tactically and also technically.

Pepe again failed to convince as a price-point rival to Kevin De Bruyne (£9.8m) and Son Heung-min (£9.5m) although he had little opportunity to impress after the break and it is still too early to fully appraise his long-term merits as a premium midfielder.

Aubameyang, however, again proved how lethal he can be with precious little service and indeed how more dangerous he is when deployed centrally rather than out wide, as will presumably now be the case for the next month with Lacazette sidelined.

The Gabon international’s goals came from his only two proper chances of the afternoon and his impressive conversion rate is one of his many redeeming qualities going into Arsenal’s favourable run of fixtures from Gameweeks 6-16.

No FPL forward scored as many goals against non-big six sides as Aubameyang in 2018/19, while the Gabonese striker now has 12 goals to his name in his last dozen Premier League starts against all opposition.

    Sold Wilson for Tammy before he played. Now I want him back.

      Your next post:

      Tammy --> Wilson for a hit
      Yes or no.

      1. Jamizz
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        No actually. I wanted him in before a price rise but couldn't get him in one move except I loose Wilson

    2. Rinseboy
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Wilson looked decent?

    3. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I did the same move eventhough I thought Wilson had very good fixtures and could do well. I don't regret it at all though since Wilson went down 0.1 while Tammy increased 0.3 in price between then and now.

      1. Jamizz
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I wouldn't either if I were you. You raked in points already and now he has LIV. I actually got him for his fixtures from GW7 and hoping he could get some points against the shakey Liv defence

  2. Brosstan
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Auba essential

  3. EL_FENOMENO
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Kane to Auba this week and McGinn + Barnes to Catnwell + Tammy next wekk or Kane to Pukki this week and upgrade Greenwood to Tammy

    1. Modest Bob
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Is this a question? If it is i'd do Kane to Pukki this week.

  4. akhilrajau
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Pope (Heaton)
    Robertson, VVD, Digne, Zinchenko, Lundstram
    Iwobi, Salah, Sterling, Mount, Dendoncker
    Pukki, King, Greenwood
    FT -1, Bank - 2.8m

    A. VVD, King -> Rico, Aubameyang
    B. VVD, iwobi -> Maitland-nails, Pepe

    Both are -4 cost.

    1. Rinseboy
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      A

  5. palace ash
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Current team having already done a -4:

    Heaton, McGovern
    TAA, Digne, Zinchenko*, Lundstram, Rico
    Salah*, Sterling, KdB, Ceballos*, Dendonker*
    Abraham, Pukki, Barnes,

    Playing my WC would get me those 4 points back and this team:

    Heaton, McGovern
    TAA, Digne, Otamendi, Lundstram, Rico
    Mane, Sterling, KdB, Mount, Cantwell
    Abraham, Pukki, Barnes

    0.0 ITB and price rises mean it must be tonight.

    I know it's rather template but I hesitated last year and my season was a disaster because of it.

    A) WC
    B) Hold

    1. Peter Ouch
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      If wc otamendi for a Burnley defender and cash itb

    2. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I was in a similar position where I was 3 or 4 moves away from what I wanted. I just went for it but you've got to do what right for you.

    3. MyBall MyRules
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I'd rather salah + ceballos + zinc
      Over
      Mane, mount + ota

    4. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Other than Ceballos to Mount, they look like sideways moves to me. Dendoncker to Cantwell would be a good move but not essential as you don't have to play Dendoncker this week.

      So B imo.

  6. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    WC draft #5

    Okay I've got a lot of big hitters in but not much balance, would you sacrifice son to beef up the defence?

    Pope (Woodman)
    Trent Mings Soyuncu (Rico/Lundstram)
    Salah KDB Son Cantwell (Hayden)
    Aguero Abraham Pukki

    0.1ITB

    1. The_Fish
      • 5 Years

      Probably.

    2. Rinseboy
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      looks decent to me.Would have Sterling over Aguero though

      1. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I could go for sterling and nketiah over aguero and Hayden. Kun is in great form though and I could probably do with a playing sub as my other subs are dodgy....

    3. Peter Ouch
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Nice one, if I wc I will go cheap in defence

      1. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers mate, good fixtures for digne and zinchenko make them tempting to keep this week but getting hard to trust their defences so why not go cheap. 🙂 hows your season going?

    4. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Morning, struggling with what moves to make with my 2FTs. Should I just be patient a week even if I lose one of my FTs? Like the look of Abraham for Barnes but not sure it's worth it this week. Also could switch Salah to Maneor downgrade Digne but again think they can wait a week. Thoughts? thanks

    Pope 
    TAA Digne Soyuncu Lunds Rico 
    Salah Sterling KDB Mount Cantwell 
    Barnes Pukki Haller

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      That team looks great for this week. Something may crop up in midweek games that causes a change but hard to see a good move there

    2. rdamjan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I would burn transfer in your case. Who is on your bench? I have 2FTs too, and if there is no injury I will probably burn transfer first in my career...

      1. Rinseboy
        • 12 Years

        thanks both cant remember ever being in this position

          im in a similar position. cant believe i am considering burning a transfer. maybe midweek causes some reason to use.

    3. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      I have almost the same team. Am contemplating Sterling and a FWD out to Son and Auba (funded by a defensive downgrade)

    4. TheBrazilianRonaldo
      • 5 Years

      Can happen when you play your wildcard early and get it right

    5. Klein

      Tbh i would do kdb to son. With champs league about to begin i dont think pep will play him twice in a week.

    “They gave me all the prestige I have in England, the first season when it was Fraud Guardiola, Fraudiola... these players gave me the prestige that I have, and now people say how good a manager I am, so it’s for them, not for me.”

    Surprised he didn't also mention 'Bald Fraud'

    This is some interesting thread on players form! https://mobile.twitter.com/FPLHAL/status/1173356501328703488

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Scoring goals are a skill not a random event though. There clearly is a benefit of and scope for form to have an effect

    2. MTPockets
        4 years, 6 months ago

        It is interesting, cheers. Not every player has the same average though. Randomness (luck) is definitely underplayed in FPL, and makes me feel better about a fixtures-focus

      • Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Decent analysis but when we talk about form, we are also talking about how a player looks on the pitch.

        How is his passing? Is he getting in good positions? How are the rest of the players around him doing?

        There's that, player confidence, as well as the ol' eye test.

        All variables that are difficult to measure, although some metrics can be key indicators.

        From a statistical standpoint? Sure, you can't be faulted for not taking form into account - but there certainly are factors that come into play.

      Morning all. Best move for next week? 1ft, 0.6itb

      1) WC and restructure 
      2) Jota -> Barnes 
      3) Jota and heaton-> Abraham and 4.0gk for -4 

      Team is:
      Heaton (pope)
      Robbo vvd lundstram digne (Soyncu)
      Salah sterling KDB Ceballos (dendo)
      Pukky jota (greenwood)

      1. Sgt Frank Drebin
        • 7 Years

        I think I would do 3 if I were you. Abraham's price gonna skyrocket now...

      2. Mr.K
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Probably 3. Surely there's no reason to WC at least?

    5. diesel001
      • 7 Years

      Arsenal are now 4pts down compared to the equivalent fixtures last season. Beat Watford and Spurs last season, but this season only got draws.

    6. Fernando Torres
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      A) Kane + Vertonghen (3-4-3)
      B) Son + TAA (3-5-2)

      Which is best?

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        B by so much

      2. Eleven Hag
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        B with 3-4-3

      3. LewanGOALski

        B

    7. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      On WC:

      A) Abraham and Pepe
      B) Aubameyang and James

      1. MTPockets
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Why Pepe?

            • 7 Years

            I guess cause of the Arsenal fixtures and feel he will do something soon.

            1. MTPockets
                4 years, 6 months ago

                Looked terrible yesterday. Lots of misplaced passes, poor ball control
                Guess he could just be rusty. Would rather wait for the something to happen first personally

          I think I am going for the first hit of this season for my team:

          Ceballos + McGinn + Kane ➡ Son + Cantwell + Barnes (-4)

          Thoughts on that?

          1. MTPockets
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Looks reasonable to me

            • Eleven Hag
              • 6 Years

              First hit of the season itself deserves a prize

              same team as me apart from Soyu (VVD) and Martial (James) and similar rank, presumably you've not used your wc? if not 300K is pretty good, i still have mine and my TV is over 102M. red arrows down to capt choices and in this weeks case both kdb and martial blanking alongside auba/tammy hauling, that team could easily get you a green arrow this week although would consider dumping soyu to a burley def and martial if he's still out.

            Do we think Tomori retains his place at Chelsea? Two starts, a goal and playing well. 4.5m a bargain.

            1. Ask Yourself
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Depends if he wants to use him in UCL. One to watch for now wait until we see that line up

            2. Make United Great Again
              • 11 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Yes. Lampard will play him

            3. MTPockets
                4 years, 6 months ago

                Probably worth waiting until GW7 to find out (LIV next)

            4. Make United Great Again
              • 11 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Pope
              TAA Digne Ota
              Mane(vc) KDB Sterling Mount Cantwell
              Pukki Haller

              McGovern, Lundstram, Wickham, Kelly.

              Got 2.6m iTB and no idea how to spend it.

              1FT. Should I sort out Wickham/Kelly this week?

              On a W/C. Already got KDB and Sterling

              Which Man City defender - stick with Zinchcenko or change to Stones/Otamendi?

              1. Make United Great Again
                • 11 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                I hope they start keeping clean sheets 🙁

                Probably Ota

              Lanzini or Mount out for Son? Don't own either Abraham nor Haller.
              Will obviously wait until after tonights game.

              1. Make United Great Again
                • 11 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                Son

                1. teneighty
                  • 9 Years
                  4 years, 6 months ago

                  Yes, he is the one I'm transfering in. But should it be at the expense of Mount or Lanzini, that is the question.

                • 5 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                Lanzini.

              A. TAA & Barnes
              Or
              B. Matip & C.Wilson + 0.5 mil

              Thx a lot

              Need Haller tonight to go wild, had a green before Auba played, so he needs to match Auba to bring back the green I think..

                There are some people who don't know what green arrow means

              Would you guys prefer Sterling or Auba on a WC?

              1. Ask Yourself
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                I chose Auba last week but that’s only until he stop so playing striker. I mean he is clinical but 3 penalty box touches tells you what you need to know

            10. Fortune
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Im not satisfied with my team, but dont really know what to with it either to make it better.
              suggestion please.
              2ft and none ITB

                Wow this is a cool team!!! Maybe Zinch > whatever city defender seems nailed after UCL and hold out I love that you have buendia and pukki that should do you well

                thanks.
                but owning and putting them in starting eleven are two different things tho.
                I went 4-4-2, haha.

                  I’d have done the same mate don’t worry. At least you have the guy it’s a super cool differential for their run of fixtures

              Currently on WC.
              Should I sacrifice Aubameyang and replace Son for Sterling?

              Pope
              TAA Digne Lundstram
              Cantwell Mane Son KDB
              Abraham Aubameyang Pukki

              Button, Jorginho, Rico, Soyuncu

              Still a work in progress...

              1. Ask Yourself
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                Good team and no not right now. Like Jorginho pick with cantwell

                • 7 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                That's almost the same team I would have on a WC.
