Saturday’s Dugout Discussion

Filed under: Injury News, Site Features - Posted by: Mark

The gameweek gets started at Stamford Bridge where there’s more attention on the pre-match handshakes than the ninety minutes that follow. For us Fantasy Managers it will be all about Drogba who wears the Fantasy Premier League armband for thousands today.

Team news from the Bridge finds Malouda at left-back again for the home side with Joe Cole coming in for Kalou. As for City, Kompany replaces the injured Toure alongside Lescott, while Zabaleta, De Jong and Barry form a midfield three with Adam Johnson and Bellamy out wide and Tevez back to lead the attack.

Our live chatroom remains open and the Dugout Discussion rooms are now in full swing. Contribute your own thoughts through the highs and lows of the day here.
