Sunday’s Dugout Discussion
Loosen the trousers – today we can look forward to a banquet of Premier League football to accompany the Sunday Roast. There are no less than five games coming up, starting with Blackburn’s local derby with Bolton at Ewood Park at 12pm. Aston Villa and Burnley kick-off a couple of hours later at Vlla Park, followed by Fulham vs Birmingham and Man City vs Liverpool at 3pm. The day’s proceedings are then brought to a bumpy end on the troubled surface at the DW stadium as Wigan host Harry’s Spurs at 4.15.
Dugout Discussion via our live chatroom will be open throughout. There will be two rooms open today, so you can choose your destination according to the “vibe”. You never know, we might see such a frenzy of points, we made need to cordon off a chill out room.
Bonus points are in:
Eagles 3
Dunne 2
Milner 1
Zamora 3
Johnson 2
Murphy 1
Johnson 3
Carragher 2
Gerrard 1
Huddlestone 3
Defoe 2
Modric 1
Cahill 3
Olsson 2

bull sh*t
Very funny!!
there not evben up yet!
age? IQ?
hmmm im pretty sure his age and IQ is the same
Weren’t you the one who posted “bull sh*t” before about phantom goals and the like…
pot kettle?
not really sure waht you’re going on about
p.s are you to embarresed to link your team
Yeah course you’re not, such a tool
go stalk someone else mate
So it was you before then. Thought so…

Yeah it was. You’re both dicks.
He can’t be 3 years old…

merry miller careful – too serious some folk at the minute – cant take a liitle plonker pulling!!
Carragher for evra
bentner for roddy
worth the 4 pointer?
I am also considering 4 pt hit Rodallega for Bendtner now. There’s only so long you can keep a striker who does naff all every week.
carragher looks like a good move but im still not convinced by bendtner. maybe saha instead
Cheers lads I’ll wait and see how week pans out (ref injury and so on), and if all goes to plan then get carragher and bendtner/Saha in but either way roddys gone, got to get rid of my Wigan lot
who was it in the chatroom who couldnt decide on rodders or dawson changed it a few times till last minute changed it to dawson…..may i say your welcome
any news on diaby?
nope wont here anything till tomorrow after a scan maybe….everything gets done monday morning….
cheers, hopefully he’ll be back for stoke
Its not likely. Minimum three weeks. With Arsenal you can double that.
need to get pavlyuchenko in
should I drop rooney or drogba?
drogba
Dnt be gay
worst thing I ever heard…In what footballing mind would you drop drogba for an out of favour / out of touch Pavluchenko
i was having a joke im not sure if hes bein serious but im not
I heard C.Fagan is in fine form! Get him in for the next gw
givet is a must as well!
dont forget rodallega he cant stop putting them in the net at the moment
What are you chattin about el! This post was created by you bruv!
lool just noticed that
clearly just a pi$$-take
was hoping to be the bandwagon starter!
Im sure he’s only takin the piss
such a tool
whats wrong did santa fail to bring you a dildo at xmas and now your all cranky
stop flirting boys
I think he has some issues. All this talk of dildos and gays is obviously the product of some kind of frustration
aha i knew you could just leave it there you had to add a further post, just drop it mate
well i couldn’t obviously. Should have gone to Spec Savers…
aha looks everyones laughing.. err wait a sec..
haha!
what!? for real? hes a good player but hes got a missing gameweek and harry isnt his biggest fan, other than that go for it? :S
Both… and bring in Elmander while you’re at it!!
lol tbh get robbie keane while your at it, hes scoring plenty of goals…………..
Dean Aston and Marlon King are worth a gamble.
johnson and Modric any chance of BPs!?
Solako said Modric was the best player on the park….
And Adam johnson did well tooo….Surely summit?
Modric always in the hat for BPs mate!
This is true…Making him difficult to drop…
I adore him. His presence and his eye for the game…Last season he was a BP magnet….
Whats Arry up to…Too many midfielders…In my head he should play week in week out..him / gomes / L.King 1st on team sheet!
hopefully gomes get some bp aswell.
Shite pitch so Harry said Modric would not last the 90mins after his injury this season.
i watched the game and modric slid crouch through for a one on one,hit the post and got an assist so i’m hoping he gets a bp
Bring on Tuesday! Utd rout
yep rooney hat-trick and all assisted by valencia
I hope so Hodge I would be soooo happy.
no rooney’s form fades, gets injured for world cup and hat-trick for valencia and a penalty save
Damn right!!!!!
I really need Valencia to do the business and possibly Evra, but most people have him.
Valencia the trick for me. I knew that my rival would bring in Evra for A.Cole and captain Rooney so he’s my only DGW differential. Currently leading him 61-48 so hoping for a some favour from the bonus judges and a blinder from Valencia.
In need to sell some one so I could have 11 playing in the next GW even at the cost of -4.
How does Valencia for Kuyt sounds to you?
did u bring in valencia this week?….
thats what i’m doing
like a 3 yr olds decision
??
I bought him months ago. Kuyt seems a good investment as he seems to play striker.
if kuyt in val out then nice otherwise bull
Didn’t Torres come on today? If he starts Kuyt will probably be pushed out wide again. I’m going to get an Everton mid to replace either Milner or Valencia (will wait and see whehter Villa make it through or not)
I think you need to pay some attention to your defence too. In all likelihood you’ll only have 2 defender playing in GW29
Yeah I know.
But now I am focused on my midfield.
well whats good is your midfield if you have 1 or 2 missing players, i would rather have 2 points from my defense than a hope of 5+ points off a mid
I have similar defence problems and was looking at Fox and Ricketts but after the 8 goals against today i’ll have to have another look
tool
and zayatte not been playing…why is that btw not been keeping track of him?
such a tool
reckon its too late as torres will be back soon and i dont have any fate in any liverpool attackers bar a fit torres
I agree – I’ve had the Val -> Kuyt switch planned for weeks for the Liv vs Bla game, but now I’m not so sure… Torres will make a massive dent in his potential points return.
superdorrans if ur around well done in bringing in bendtner for rodellega….may follow you a week later
Cheers mate, only one goal so not getting carried away but worth a gamble, I’d get him in if I was you.
Palyvochenko Givet and Faubert for fabs rooney and evra.. thats my transfers for the week.. 8 point hit, i think its worth it..
go for it
….fancy joining a 100 pound bet league with me and you in it? lol
dont forget milner…….im sure he can do something next saturday when he is playing pro evo
planning insua in richards out worth doing early incase or price rise? hopping insua wina play in romania as he neva played first leg
You’ve prob got a day or two at least before Insua rises. Just keep an eye on FTools if you’re tight on cash
i use fiso 2 check price rises that seems a g site and insua bout 80% yep bit tight wana keep coin for nxt few swaps
just get Carra
dina think carra does as much as insua up the pitch and insua cheaper
At least you know he’ll be on the pitch.
that is true. but insua prob played as much mins this season as carra. but agree cause aurrilo threat
Best defender for 4mill?
Worth taking a punt on Fox?
i’m taking a punt on Fox
Bikey?
I may take a punt on Fox. It was my planned transfer but worried Burnley are coming off the rails big time, but Pompey are alot worst so might be worth a shot
Ollson/Fox are your only real prospects.
You’d be brave to take a punt on Olsson now
Why? I’ve not been around today. Did I miss something?
Our fixtures are very tough for the run in and even in the short term we go away to Liverpool next GW and then have a blank the following GW
Maybe it is time for Steven Gerrard.. Valencia and Evra out!
bonus in.
apart from Spurs.
And now it’s in.
2 for Dawson. Good times.
Sweet! Got him coming in for Micah
Dear Antonio Valencia, please score 12 goals so I have any chance of beating MFaulkner on tuesday.
Yours sincerely,
this weeks loser.
All my differentials did the business this week. Hard luck.
If only you’d had Givet rather than Samba eh?
I don’t mind, I fully expected to lose so it’s all gravy. You’re having a venerable storm of a February though, not bad at all.
Oh well, I’ll come back strong and win my next match… oh, wait, I’m currently considering a spend another 8 points. Maybe not.
Your boy Duff is also frustrating… he’s doing too well, I think I may just have to keep him now.
He’s inherited all the Dempsey bonus points, and looks strong cutting inside. FPL seem to have a thing for players like that – Eagles, Duff & N’Zog are all big favourites now.
Those latter two are probably the best bargain mids you’re going to get right now, so I’m not sure who you’re planning to replace them with, unless it’s actually an upgrade.
And you’ll never catch me if you keep taking those point hits.
Your score this month is crazy good. You got yourself some serious green arrows. Very nice indeed.
It’s a welcome piece of from after almost half a season of inertia. I guess there was always going to be movement at one stage, I’m just glad it’s up and not down.
Disappointing for me…
For a split second FPL had taken 2 off Milners assists off… I nearly went apesh*t.
Yeeha! Bonus for Dawson and Milner. Lovely Jubbly!
7 points for Dawson as a replacement off my bench nice.
63 with Evra and Rooney (c) to play.
Snap(except I have Valencia and Rooney(c))
Bit strange bonus in the Liverpool game. Thought Lucas gave the ball away too much. Preferred De Jong and Zabaleta.
Not that I care really. On 60 with a 4 pointer and Valencia+Rooney(C) to play. Should be a green arrow I guess.
just like to say that i’m so happy bale and downing did well. chech the link to know why.
ye i was thinking of that when i saw them doing well
Great day today.
Olsson, Dawson, Gera, Milner = 34 points!
OK, pitiful GW returns thus far – I should have taken the 8pt hit on Drogba and Bendtner. I still have over 10M in bank. Dilema is this:
How did Torres do in the game today agility-wise?
Is Ramsey likely to play this GW with Diaby still out or will Denilson get start?
I’m thinking of 8pt hit:
>OUT – Rosicky, Fletcher & Rodallega
>IN – Gerrard, Ramsey & Torres
Should give me this GW team:
Hart
Ridgewell, Johnson, Smalling or Stearman, (Tomkins)
Gerrard, Fab, Lee, O’Hara, Ramsey
Torres, Adebayor (Rooney)
how much ramsey? sure you can get player as cheap who will def play. McCarthy at wigan for example. other 2 should def do them
wouldn’t trust Ramsey. Diaby will start when fit, and Denilson may well get another chance.
And I wouldn’t get Gerrard and Torres. Liverpool aren’t exactly free scoring, and quite frankly, Gerrard’s been shit.
That’s the prob. When is Diaby due (I’ve read Monday is time for news but pee’d with points and feel the need to fix ASAP to save the keyboard on this laptop!)
Liver’ duo have to hit the road running now if they want form for lead up to the WC.
BPs are in!
52 with Rooney (c) & Evra to play, average really.
Bale 3 BPs official.
Gera 3
Duff 2
Zamora 1
very much one step forward one step back for me………..3 weeks ago buy gera sell o hara…….gera gets 1 point o hara gets 5
this week sell gera to buy drogba and get o hara ……same again but in reverse……….im cursed !
my fpl is only showing 3 pts bale…..can I assume pitch had 2 pts and divot had 1 point?
Dawson 2
Pav 1
is fpl teasing me cos i swear milner 2 assists had just gone!!
Where Modric assist gone??
Nowhere?
did he get benched again? (been out most of the day, don’t get mad)
Harry still won’t start Pavlyuchenko ahead of Crouch, yet will blatantly take the credit for his brace by ‘keeping him on his toes’ or some similar idioms to that effect.
Harry is an idiot who has his favourites and that won’t change.
To be fair, his subs did make a big difference today though.
Two ways of looking at that I guess.
1) Genius for using his subs to such a great effect.
2) Idiot for not starting them.
He did manage his team to a 3-0 away win, so I guess there’s no need to hate.
Cuellar 1
Milner 2
Downing 3
if thats true its a joke………ashley young was best player on park should have got 2 or 3 bps…..the best 3 were obvious really
Official.
http://fantasy.premierleague.com/fixture/203.html
Yeah, he scored the equaliser and set up the one that put them ahead. Milner just kicked them while they were down
i guess the milner bonus points settles the issue of young or milner in…..he is a clear favourite of the judges
46 points with vander saar, valencia and rooney(c). Is the green arrow on?
no chance
Oh….. well we’ll see when van der saar saves 5 penalties…. or maybe not
So, 57 with Evra and Rooney (c) to play again.
One of my minileague rivals will get a big boost when the auto update subs out his captain Etherington and Brings in Zamora with the armband going to either Fabregas (value) or Insua (form). That’s a 12 or 16 point swing.
Gera 3 BPs ya beauty – slightly made up for benching Dawson and Gomes – Doh!
I’m happy with that, i really should have not brought van der saar in and left gomes in net.
Why bench defenders playing for a team who have kept a CS in 8 of their last 11 games?
Tough one. Ivanovic and Hangeland both had decent looking game and Evra the DGW
I never realised Spurs had kept a CS 8 out of 11, but as SD said it was a tough one
