Tuesday’s Dugout Discussion

Filed under: Injury News - Posted by: greek fan

A dull final day of the transfer window and an even duller, goalless match last night. We could only hope for something better today.

Most of us fantasy managers had been anticipating this double game-week for Chelsea, but it might be less profitable than expected. Didier Dorgba was at Cobham when his team-mates travelled to Burnley, but he starts tonight pushing Nicolas Anelka deeper – or wide someone could argue, while Ashley Cole is on bench following the ankle problem which forced him off last weekend.

Tigers make only one change to the side that started against Wolves at the weekend as Craig Fagan comes in for Bernard Mendy on the right.

Join the discussion about tonight’s game, expectations and hopes, fears and failures, in our Dugout Discussion chatroom which is now open.

    I was surprised to see on PLFantasy that MU top the list for attack points this week, so I would say Valencia. »

“Alex Chamberlain played three games for the first time in his career. He had a stiff neck at half-time, so I did not want to take a gamble with him. Then we had a problem with Koscielny, and I wanted to give some playing time to Benayoun.”

Arsene Wenger explains why Van Persie wasn't substituted in the 7-1 win over Blackburn following pre-game talk of the Dutch hitman needing rest
