What next for Arsenal assets after unfortunate blanks for Aubameyang and Leno?

Brighton 2-1 Arsenal

  • Goals: Lewis Dunk (£4.7m), Neal Maupay (£5.7m) | Nicolas Pépé (£9.3m)
  • Assists: Aaron Connolly (£4.2m) | Bukayo Saka (£4.7m)
  • Bonus Points: Maupay x3, Dunk x2, Pépé x1

A serious injury to Bernd Leno (£5.0m) at Brighton typified what proved to be a largely disappointing Double Gameweek for Arsenal players.

After registering five points in the midweek 3-0 defeat at Manchester City, the Gunners’ goalkeeper was only able to increase his score for the round by one.

That’s because Leno only lasted 39 minutes before having to come off with what many suspected was a broken leg, although that is not yet confirmed.

He jumped up to claim a high ball in the Arsenal penalty area, only to be barged over somewhat unnecessarily by Brighton forward Neal Maupay (£5.7m).

Trying to remain in the area with the caught ball, Leno stuck out a leg, which buckled underneath him.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said after the game that the injury did not look positive, but that they would know more after a scan.

“I believe that no player has the intention to hurt anybody and I believe in this case it’s exactly the same, it was unfortunate. Bernd’s injury doesn’t look good and we will have to assess him probably tomorrow, but it can happen on a football pitch. It’s a knee injury, I think he had a hyperextension of the knee and we have to assess the damage. We don’t know [the full extent]. He was in a lot of pain but we will have to wait until tomorrow to see how bad the damage is.” – Mikel Arteta

Leno’s likely absence for the rest of the season does open the door for Emiliano Martínez (£4.2m) to start the remaining games for Arsenal, but it seems unlikely that Fantasy managers will flock towards him en masse.

That’s because the Gunners’ defence continues to completely underwhelm, conceding another two on Saturday afternoon. 

With Pablo Mari (£4.8m) and David Luiz (£5.7m) both missing, it was Shkodran Mustafi (£5.1m) and Rob Holding (£4.4m) named at centre-back, the latter making just his second league start of the campaign. Despite initially looking solid, the ever-present Leno’s absence was felt throughout the team, allowing Brighton to grow into the game, especially in the second half.

Lewis Dunk (£4.7m) capitalised on some scrappy defending in the box to get the equaliser before Maupay punished Arsenal on the counter-attack late-on.

The upcoming fixtures for Arsenal certainly don’t scream ‘defensive investment’ either, with Southampton, Wolves and Leicester three of their next four.

However, the £4.2m man Martínez could well be the perfect second-choice goalkeeper for those playing their Wildcards right now, if he can offer regular starts at just £4.2m. In his 50 minutes on the pitch, the budget goalkeeper made three saves, earning an additional point for them.

Outside of their questionable defence, Fantasy managers may be increasingly frustrated with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.1m) who blanked for the second match in a row. For all his Double Gameweek 30+ hype, the forward ended the round with just four points to his name.

While Wednesday night was a largely abject affair from the Gabonese international, Aubameyang’s blank at Brighton was not for lack of trying.

He produced an uncharacteristically busy display at the Amex Stadium and was rather unfortunate not to come away with something from the game.

Aubameyang is usually the sort of player who errs towards the side of languid brilliance, but there was an energy and enthusiasm about him in Sussex, leading to a game littered with shots from Arsenal’s number 14.

He could have arguably had a brace inside the first five minutes with two early chances. Nicolas Pépé (£9.3m) was unleashed on the right-hand side with his pace in the opening minute, looping a cross to Aubameyang, who managed to hook a blocked shot at goal.

Shortly after, the forward was handed a stray pass in a dangerous area by Davy Pröpper (£4.8m). He bore down on goal and, under some pressure, struck his effort just high and wide, but not by much.

In the ninth minute, Aubameyang probably should have had an assist, were it not for some indecision from Alexandre Lacazette (£9.4m). He pressed through the middle and fed his French colleague with a nice through-ball. Lacazette allowed it run across him onto the right foot but took too long to shoot before Adam Webster (£4.5m) was able to slide in and block.

Aubameyang was back at it again in the second half, linking up with Lacazette nicely in the 47th minute. After a neat one-two, he found a great position to shoot but, again, it was Webster who got in the way. Just a few moments after that, he bore down on goal again, his left-footed effort just about stopped by Mathew Ryan (£4.7m).

Just short of the hour, Aubameyang got himself involved in the set pieces in an attempt to find the break-through. Dani Ceballos (£5.2m) rolled a free-kick in his direction, producing a powerful shot from range, blocked by the wall.

After another low effort from the left was parried around the post by Ryan, Aubameyang tried his luck from distance once again, arguably very unlike the penalty-box merchant. His swerving 79th-minute effort nearly caught Ryan off-guard, who had to bat it away and contend with a crowd of players to smother it eventually.

With all of that in mind, the more patient Fantasy managers may consider holding onto Aubameyang, at least for the next two matches, which pit Arsenal against Southampton and Norwich. Neither of those two sides has had a particularly solid year defensively, so it is entirely possible that Aubameyang will get more opportunities to score. That said, it might be worth keeping an eye on any upcoming Arteta press conference about rotation. The forward has now played 90 minutes in each of the first two games since the Premier League restart.

Of the much-discussed Double Gameweek assets, only Pépé and Bukayo Saka (£4.7m) went some way to rewarding their owners at Brighton.

The latter was in especially scintillating mood operating in central attacking midfield, striking the crossbar in the seventh minute and setting up Lacazette for an impressive diving header saved by Ryan later in the first half.

It was in the second that Saka got his just rewards, his laid-off pass what led to Pépé’s impressive curling effort beyond Ryan.

With both of those midfielders, holding them for those upcoming favourable fixtures does also look a smart move, despite Arsenal’s inability to see out the result at Brighton.

Whether or not the Seagulls can be trusted for Fantasy investment does remain to be seen, especially considering their nasty upcoming fixtures, which include Leicester (away), Manchester United (home), Liverpool (home) and Manchester City (home) between now and Gameweek 35+.

However, there were some shoots of promise against Arsenal, not least from Ryan, whose five saves was just one shy of achieving a second additional point in that department. As a result, the Brighton shot-stopper was also only just edged out of the bonus points, which bodes well for the future too.

Fantasy managers should probably keep an eye on Maupay after his late winning goal. The former Brentford man registered more efforts on goal than any other Brighton player and finally delivered on the promise he showed pre-lockdown. In our recap of the best Brighton players ahead of Double Gameweek 30+, we highlighted that, in the six Gameweeks before March’s coronavirus suspension, Maupay had one of the best shots on target totals in the Premier League, implying that he only needed to improve his conversion to offer some value. He did that against Arsenal, so we will have to see if that continues into Gameweek 31+.

Brighton and Hove Albion XI (4-3-3): Ryan; Burn, Webster, Dunk, Schelotto (Montoya 71′); Pröpper, Bissouma (Mac Allister 90+4′), Mooy (March 46′); Trossard (D Stephens 87′), Maupay, Groß (Connolly 71′).

Arsenal XI (4-2-3-1): Leno (Martínez 39′); Kolasinac, Holding, Mustafi, Bellerín; Ceballos (Willock 87′), Guendouzi; Aubameyang, Saka (Tierney 87′), Pépé (Nelson 87′); Lacazette (Nketiah 78′).

      Wilder said: “We’ll give them, Jack and John, as much time as possible as always. It’s a quick turnaround. They are two contact injuries, so not soft muscle injuries. It’s their attitude as to how they train. We were unfortunate in that situation but maybe we’ve been fortunate over the season so we just have to go with it.”

          Rash/Jimi/DCL

          with 1.1ITB to switch DCL > Tammy in GW32

          not sure it needs improving anywhere?

            solid team!

            1. School of Poch
              • 8 Years
              3 years, 9 months ago

              Thanks. I have switched Pope out for Martinez. Which is a bit of a risk. But he made 3 saves in half an hour last night and will get plenty more opps with that Arsenal defence. Could be a good gamble.

            2. FPL Pillars
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 9 months ago

              No TAA/Salah which is risk but yes solid

              1. School of Poch
                • 8 Years
                3 years, 9 months ago

                Agree. Having more than one of Mane/Salah/TAA takes up so much funds though. I'm hoping that Mane is enough and that rotation makes the others less important after they win the league.

  7. el polako

    3 years, 9 months ago

    United offensive triple up is really tempting, everyone have Bruno F but wisely\lucky picking 2 out of Martial\Rashford\Pogba could be gold with their fixtures.

    Not so keen on their defensive assets since their main CB is as agile as my gran.

    1. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Only if they outscore the other premium, if they get benched going to be cursing?

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Double up enough atm for me.
      Was on Martial, but now thinking about Rashford instead of him

      1. g40steve
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        This Rashford & Bruno.

        1. Steve The Spud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          To be fair other than that they looked pretty solid at the back, wouldn’t bet against a couple of CS on this good run of fixture

      2. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years

        Why Rashford not Martial?

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Completely dependent upon my team structure bro.
          Currently i am looking at a prospect of selling Vardy next GW for Rashford.

          1. Magic Zico

            Ok fair enough

      After watch ManU game I don’t see any clean sheets?

      1. jackx13
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        He's got the fixtures for it and I don't have the cash for Ederson/Alisson. Can get Lloris but with Aurier in there - this will limit my ability to get in a second attacking Spurs option in case they show amazing form for some reason.

    2. TheTinman
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I'd go Traore over Barnes

      1. jackx13

        Will consider it, thanks!

    Worth trying to crowbar Traore into my wildcard team?

    Pope Martin

    DCL Jimenez Rashford

    1. kennethrhcp
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      would prob mean selling DCL & Cantwell & playing 352

      DCL to Ayew & Cantwell to Traore?

      1. Francescoli
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I’d have to remove Saiss as well. I was thinking of Son to Traore and Saiss up to Robertson?

    2. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Would you play him?

      1. Francescoli
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        With their fixture run and the interplay between he and Jimenez, yes he’d play

    3. ritzyd
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      No need with Doc and Jimi - should be plenty of wolves cover

    4. olidooley

      Sarr is the man to crowbar in.....he's explosive and nailed

    5. Fantasy Pig
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Nice team! Very similar to my current WC team, only 3 different. I have Mendy, Aurier and Saka vs your Lascelles Taylor and Cantwell. I’ve seen many other WCs similar to ours too. Hopefully the WC template pays off for us all!!

  12. olidooley
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    My WC team is coming down to which of these two I want

    A) Sarr (3-5-2)
    B) DCL (3-4-3)

    1. Francescoli
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Slightly favour the DCL route. Can’t look past that game against Norwich

    2. ritzyd
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Same here, i'm currently leaning toward Sarr on the basis there is more flexibility for changes around that price/position (mount, barnes, perez, grealish all at similar price). Whereas DCL there is really only him i would be interested in around that price (dont want pukki or jota as have jiminez)

      1. Pipermaru

        Yes?

  13. TheTinman
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    The template wildcard has well and truly formed. I'm feeling Kane over Son with those fixtures, spurs should be on top of most of those teams which should mean less counter attacking goals (Son & Berg) and more in the box goals (Kane)

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      It feels like going for differential for the sake of it.
      Kane is a shadow of his former self now

      1. Karan14
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Agree with this.

        Would prefer Alli over Kane.

      2. TheTinman
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Actually Kane under Mourinho has been pretty good. 5 goals and 1 assist in 10 games. 8bps. That includes 2 games v ManU, Che and Wolves

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          How does Son perform in those games ?
          (Genuinely asking)

          1. TheTinman
            • 8 Years

              Son for me then without a shadow of a doubt.

    2. ritzyd
      • 6 Years

      I wouldn't touch Kane personally.

      1 Liverpool?

      1. dshv
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Really don’t want to make 3 changes to bring some defender tell me what have to remove to bring taa and is it bring more points than other 3 good players ?

    2. Tasty Jerk
      • 11 Years

      Dcl to Ayew imho

  19. bitm2007

    3 years, 9 months ago

    14.2m to spend on two forwards or a forward and a mid.

    Is Rashford and Ayew (can bench v Pool) my best option ?

  20. Karan14
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Feel so unlucky after getting 2 pointers from both Rashford and Sarr after both of them got a big chance to score.

    Sigh! FPL is well and truly back!

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I have Jota/Auba/Vardy/Son
      All who should have done well. I thought avoiding FH can be good for the team in long term ...

      But here i am ! Hate decision not to FH now. And going for that Auba .....

      Not so cool start then 😀

      1. Karan14
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        FH38 could still be huge mate!

        I'm having a pretty crap gameweek on FH looking at the standard around here. 71 with 8 to go.

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          You'll end up with great score... GL. 8 players are more than enough bro.
          I am on 73 with Taa,KDB©, Ederson, Lundstram & Grealish to go.
          I hope FH 38 works now. It'll be fun nonetheless 😀

          1. Karan14
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            Cheers really need some luck to go my way!

            City vs Norwich in GW38 and you could get leaked team news. I wish I had another FH for 38.

              Hopefully Rockstar can do something about it 😉

    Morning,
    WC team.

    Pope - Martin
    TAA - Doherty - Saiss - Lascelles - Ngakia
    KDB - Son - Bruno - Martial - Richarlison
    Rashford - Jimenez - Nketiah

    Will play 3-5-2 most weeks, 1m in the bank.
    Martial could be Pogba?
    Rash could be Vardy?
    Do I need Liverpool attack, Origi might get game time once the title is wrapped up?

    Cheers

      I am looking on your team is nice. But like mine i have just mane from pool on wc, what is you explanation to have just a trent from pool not an attacker ?

      1. BananaMan
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I've never really considered dropping Trent TBH. I suppose he's capable of delivering premium points for 7.1m that I got him at.
        Based all decisions on fixtures hence 3 United & 3 Wolves.

        1. dshv
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Thats right you good about trent but i have to bring him on 7.8 and that is a little bit too much?

          Anyway why don’t bring aurier or maguire/awb. Fixtures are good for that teams ??

    Thoughts on my WC draft? (0.0ib)

    Pope
    Trent Doherty Maguire
    Mané KDB Son Fernandes Sarr
    Jiménez DCL
    Bench: Button,Lascelles,Femeina,Nketiah

    1. Garlana
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Looks decent, I've personally waivered on Maguire

    2. Cahill
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      good but a bit weak up top

    3. Zebrahimović
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I like it. Unsure on the Maguire pick though. If you had to go with a United def, then Awb would probably be more likely to get bps.

  23. Cahill
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    think both of these start the next game?

    Barnes
    Jota

    weren't great and subs were very good when they came on

  24. Hktrader88

    Comments on current WC..

    Martinez -3.9m
    TAA - Doherty - Gomez - Lascelles - Taylor

    Mane - Son - Kdb - Fernandes - Saka

    Rashford - Jimenez - (Nketiah)

    If I went Son to Alli then I could go Gomez to Alonso.

    1. Cahill
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      looks good

      martinez to play rest of the season?

      1. Hktrader88
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Not sure, waiting for confirmation that Leno is out for the season, which may come today. I would prefer Pope, but I don't think the likely point difference over 8 games is going to be huge and the 0.7m is useful.

  25. gers23
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Auba to Vardy or Rashford? Have no Utd players. Im leaning towards Vardy and getting Bruno in at a later date.

    1. Cahill
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      vardy looked much sharper

  26. Zebrahimović
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Who's going to go with double Wolves at the back next week? i.e Doherty+Saiss?

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Had them this week. Plan to keep with TAA until the season ends

      1. Zebrahimović
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Same. I think it could be canny.

    2. Lignja
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Probably

    3. Amey
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Not sure about that.
      Doherty enough for me

    4. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Maybe not but only if on BB

  27. Babit1967
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Final wc decision, two of son, Doherty and dcl

    A) Saiss, Son, DCL -343
    B) Doherty, Richarlison, DCL-343
    C) Doherty, Son, Ayew (Ayew becomes first sub and Fernandez (Newcastle) comes in on 4-4-2

    Thoughts ?

    1. jason_ni
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Prob c from those

    2. beric
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      b

  28. jason_ni
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Worthing saving some cash with Stevie bergwin over son on a wc?

    A) pay the premium for son
    B) stevie b and invest elsewhere

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I had Son and then considered Bergwijn

      I’m now considering to go without spurs asset. They just don’t convince me. Gotta make a decision

      1. jason_ni
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Half thought of this as option c! Just get someone like mount, and save even more cash. Hard to know what to expect from son.

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      You get what you pay for. Sonny boy for me

  29. faux_C
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Completely forgot to do any moves ahead of this week and feared the worst but currently sat on 58 from 6 with 3 Liverpool players still to play, including Salah (c).

    Maybe it will be ok?

    1. jason_ni
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Could have been worse, bro did seem thing and somehow managed to get 72 to this point!

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Top 10K average around 73 and with SHU AVL MCI are still going to play, unfortunately it’s more likely red arrow for you. Hopefully not too great.

    3. Amey
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Think about those who saw it & still doing sh.t 😀

      (If that makes you feel better)

  30. dshv
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    The two big question on WC

    Am i really need two united attacker (rash and bruno)

    Am i really need a liverpool defender?

    I have to choose players to give me a differential not to be safe .. if liverpool become champions next week the rotations will started a lot ..

    1. jason_ni
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Nothing wrong with double utd.
      TAA will remain for me as well, hell keep getting minutes, and is essential imho.
