Arsenal players have become the top players in the Fantasy Football League after their stunning start to this season.
The Gunners have begun the campaign with three wins from as many matches, and the wins will keep coming.
The standout performers so far have been Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Martinelli, William Saliba and Martin Odegaard.
Odegaard scored twice as they beat Bournemouth 3-0 in the Premier League yesterday, with Saliba scoring the other goal.
The Premier League website says Jesus is now joint top for the most point collected by a single player in FPL this season on 25 points.
Martinelli is one of three players to deliver an attacking return in every weekend of the Premier League so far.
Saliba’s performance against the Cherries means he now has the most points among defenders (21), and FPL managers have now turned to adding him to their squad as he is the second most-bought player in the last 24 hours.
Just Arsenal Opinion
We have made one of the best starts to a season in a while, and it is understandable that our players are now attractive to FPL managers.
We need to keep the momentum going because it would be a very long season.
One way we can sustain our fine start is to ensure we stay humble and never underestimate an opponent.

All this will soon lapse if we don’t have a valuable addition in the midfield to cover Partey when he’s unfit. And that can happen any time soon if we go by his statistics.
Almost every position has a valuable replacement except that of Partey. It’s his absence that let us down last term. Almost all our clean sheets were gotten with him on the field.
Arteta and Edu know this all too well.
His absence made the defence very vulnerable leading to many goals conceded.

I guess there’s 3 possibilities:
1. They think Elneny or various versatile players, different formations etc can cover.
2. There’s no-one to buy (the market doesn’t seem to be exactly awash with DMs).
3. They’re talking to clubs and we don’t know it yet. As with Vieira.
I’m not sure the overhaul is complete this season, I get the feeling that there’s probably another summer window to go and it’s probably best finished with CL football the following season.
That said, I think they’ve recruited fantastically well for a club without CL this window. Credit to Edu and his team.
Lokonga is viewed as the long term option also assuming Zinchenko is viewed as viable back up now. Elneny is way more solid than people pretend.
The way the Rey of the team are playing this season I don’t think we would miss Partey as much as we did last season.
