It has been a while but gameweek 36 is finally here. The gameweek that everyone fantasy premier league manager has been waiting for. 8 teams have double gameweeks. Including some marquee players. Gameweek 36 is a huge and maybe the last opportunity to make ground on your league leader. But who makes the gameweek 36 watch-list?
Van der Vaart
It has not been going well for Spurs recently but with a home game against; Blackburn and then away Bolton you have got to fancy some goals. Van der Vaart has not hit the highs of last season but still has 9 league goals. He has 2 league goals in his past 2 home starts and a good goal scoring record against Blackburn.
Boswinga
After Chelsea’s heroics in Barcelona mid week there are very few defenders left standing. Cahill is out for the season, Ivanovic has a 1 game ban and Luiz is still injured. Somehow Terry is still playing but surely he won’t play every game. That leaves one man – Jose Boswinga. The Portuguese full back was on the watch list of every fantasy premier league manager at the start of the season but things got messy with AvB. With 2 home games you would back Chelsea to come out with at least 1 clean sheet. Jose also has a goal, 3 assists and 10 bonus points to his name.
Hatem Ben Arfa
I love Ben Arfa. He has everything you want in a winger. Skills, set pieces and most of all he is greedy. Ben Arfa has 5 goals, 7 assists and 8 bonus points to his name. Not bad considering he has only played for half the season. However in gameweek 25 the Newcastle winger developed a very annoying fantasy premier league trait. The assist for the assist. This happened twice vs. Stoke. With 4.2 points / game I predict HBA to have a big double game-week.
Whoever you pick for the gameweek 36, good luck and may you have many bonus points.
