Sunday’s Dugout Discussion
Spurs and Everton get our Sunday started down at the Lane with a 1pm kick-off, followed by Liverpool vs Blackburn and Sunderland vs Fulham at three. Around all that, we also have the largely academic Carling Cup Final to absorb.
Early team news from the Lane finds Redknapp starting with Pavlyuchenko and Defoe up front. Modric and Kranjcar both start in midfield and Bassong comes in for the injured Ledley King. Bale keeps Assou-Ekotto warming the bench. As for Everton, Anichebe and Rodwell both get starts with Saha strangely “not in the squad”. and Donovan benched. Yobo and Jagielka help to make Everton’s bench recognisable again as Distin and Heintinga take up the centre-back roles.
The Dugout Discussion live chatroom is now open to capture your Sunday best.
And Song’s net transfers in continue to climb, despite his ban. At +1200 for the day, so far!
do they know something i don’t. have arsenal signed rigobert song?
some short sighted people out there
How do you find out this information?
Yep , exactly what I’m doing
Anyone know why Saha was out today?
Because I brought him in this week!
injury – check tweets
Cheers lads, that is such an almighty balls
Hughes 3bp!
Hangeland 2BP
YESSSS
Nice. Gerrard paid off then Sammy.
Yeah not bad so far, bit annoyed he didn’t get bps, didn’t see the game though
Torres the same
Where do you find all the BP together?
hennesey gomes
vermaelen evra dunne baird terry
n’zogbia o’hara cohen fabregas milner
drogba zamora rooney
just looked at the fixture list and realised that i only hav 6 players playing next game week out of 15!!
what do i do!
thinking of bringing in saha and bentner then have no idea what to do
Fletcher has got an ASSIST!!!Wooohooo!
boohoooooo !
Boooooooooo
Given the change has happened more than 24 hours after the game and TV pictures weren’t wholly conclusive about there being a touch, I’ve emailed them to complain. Desperation is a wonderful thing.
no bonus points for gerrard!
None for Gera?
hughes 3
hangeland 2
davies 1
What are people’s views on Valenica? Worth getting back in?
Who got the BPs then?
That was officially my worst week ever! 28 points, woo!
75 points well happy with that but now 5 players not playing and zayatte. Have 2 free transfers so can field a team without hits which is what i’m hoping todo.
Want rid of gera and one of ivanovic and modric. Who should I get rid of and who for?
are the liverpool bonuses in yet?
Torres Masch Reina
Torres, Masc, Reina
Torres 3
Masch 2
Reina 1
My God how does Torres get 3
big player + winning goal. he was quiet by all accounts but he did what mattered at the end of the day
Thank you Fernando.
As long as he is fit he will never let you down
Apart from when he scored 1 goal out of 8 as my captain in Liverpool’s 4-0 wins against Stoke and Burnley earler in the season
Gerrard none?
Excellent news of the 3 bp for Nando, the fact that Hughes got 3 bp as well caps off a good day ( 2 players 18 points ) This makes my week a more respectful score of 65
Baines has no fixture during the week right?
Roooooooaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrr…..
He#ll be playing against Egypt presumably
F*** SAKE! Lost head to head over the bonus points. Alexander to Hughes just cost me 13 points difference. Brutal week.
Torres 3BP! That is pretty funny
Why did he play shite apart from the goal?
Decent first half, barely touched the ball in the second half.
I was a tough game to judge really for bps
Nice to see Liverpool have turned it around then haha! Might not get him in next week then…….
all BPs to fulham? dammit
73 points at close only 3 not playing next week, back of the net!!
Wow that Fletcher assist just cost me my H2H by 1 point. Bummer.
I had a massive match vs Denial. Did all my transfers last week so I didn’t have to take hit this week. Just won the heads up to hopefully put me up for a top 3 finish.
Wish Id taken Robinson to Jussi hit though.
You have it sewn up already JWF so no worries there.
Congrats on your win. I don’t think for a second that the league’s sewn up though, only two wins in it now. I’ve had a very poor run recently. Still, keeps things interesting at least!
Today went well, decent week in the end. Why doesn’t gerrard get boni anymore?
Search me. He was very deep but was good defensively and scored. Weird but that’s not unusual with bps
He’s got to average 2.4 bonii per game for the rest of the season to hit his standard 35 for the year. I reckon he’s gonna do it
lol noticed that the other day too. spooky
and why is Mascherano getting them consistently? must be one of the most hated players in the league outside of the Kop
Because he also happens to be the best dm in the world after Essien!
my teams in a right mess next week so it looks like i’ll have to take a points hit so i was thinkin:
drogba – rooney
shawcross – baines
modric – pienaar
saha (if injured) – bendter
12 point hit
good idea?
judging by the tweet is saha out?
anyone?
milner drogba zamora –> torres bendtner pienaar ???
good 4 one week not in long term
Jensens assist has been taken off… what a terrible terrible terrible week!
good job i e-mailed them
Ifeel your pain…
A Hughes > Bikey
what a great transfer that was
lol
Exactly the same one here mate. Shocker eh, i was gonna do it next week but felt i could take the hit against my H2H rival so i did it this week. Oh well…
Ah well hope it pays in the long run. Frees up the cash for the run in.
Got 51 in the end with no hits
dear God, Saha injured shawcross sent off can my players stop dropping like flies just FOR ONCE!!!!!
me and you both
You can’t moan about a Saha injury
maybe, but I can definitely moan about shawcross, adebayor, etherington and diaby…
I nearly brought in Ricketts and Gerrard, but then changed my mind and brought in Alexander and Kuyt… nuff sed!
Always go with gut instinct, that’s what I’ve learnt in this game!
First time I’ve owned Kuyt and he did sod all. Goodbye to him.
Love the long-term thinking
Fletcher has been given the assist. What an absolute farce the FPl has turned into.
it was an assist though
Not a chance, it’s been discussed plenty on here, and if anyone touched the ball from the goal kick it was the Portsmouth defender.
th ecommentators said fletcher assist and it said fletcher assist in the match report aswel
And journalists know how much about the game? They write their reports off live pictures so have less chance than the rest of us for getting it right.
If all Jensen owners / rival-owns-fletcher-types email FPL, might get it changed back. They made the change outside their 24 hour window, too.
I think it could’ve gone eitehr way, so changing it just seems stupid.
Mate I seen it with my own eyes. I will watch again on MOTD2 tonight. The majority here say it was rightly a Jensen assist, and I agree.
had i captained nearly anyone but kuyt it wouldve bben a good week for me
Was Aurellio injured today anyone?Im an Insua owner….!
Yep, definitely
Cheers mate, a bad looking one?Might well make Insua a happier purchase!
Yes, it was a torn muscle of some description. Can’t quite remember what they said now but i’m sure the tweets will have it covered soon
must have been. can’t see why else you would come off after 35 mins. the insua legacy will live on for a few more weeks now
Well heres hoping it means Insua is nailed on to start now! Nice on with Fabs Applebonkers, that was my big let down this week
