Fantasy Premier League Rankings: Week 30

Remember when we all decided to write Romelu Lukaku off because he was fat and not good anymore? That was funny. In fairness, it was a bit warranted, as he went seven consecutive appearances without getting on the scoresheet, with only three starts in that span, but that's all in the past now as he bagged two goals against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League on Wednesday to secure his third consecutive brace in all competitions. Granted, his huge performance in Paris, which helped United come back from a two-goal deficit to make the Champions League quarter-final, doesn't help us for fantasy Premier League, but it's really encouraging for his form overall.

His matchup away to Arsenal this weekend isn't the perfect matchup, though neither was being away to PSG with a depleted midfield and attack (other than Lukaku and Marcus Rashford). I wouldn't necessarily go out and grab Lukaku in salary cap formats, but I also wouldn't hesitate to start him if I was smart enough to pick him up before his excellent run of production.
