Dugout Discussion

Sunday Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion opens this afternoon, hoping for a similar goal glut witnessed in yesterday’s edition. We’ve two games to pour over, with all four clubs with something to play for. Later we’ll be at White Hart Lane where Tottenham continue to chase Champions League qualification against relegation fighting Blackburn. Before that there’s a West London derby at Stamford Bridge, between Chelsea and Queens Park Rangers…

Chelsea XI: Cech, Ferreira, Bosingwa, Terry, Cole, Mata, Essien, Lampard, Sturridge, Torres, Kalou.

QPR: Kenny, Onuoha, Ferdinand, Hill, Taiwo, Mackie, Barton, Derry, Buzsaky, Cisse, Zamora.

As expected, Roberto Di Matteo has tinkered with his line-up ahead of of a huge night in Munich, but somewhat surprisingly there are still starts for the likes of Juan Mata and Frank Lampard.

The visitors name an attacking line-up, with Djibril Cisse partnering Bobby Zamora up front.

The Dugout Discussion chatroom is open – with moderators will be on hand to resolve any issues – and can be accessed right here.

    Up until now I was telling myself that JT and Nando had almost the same points so I hadn't made the wrong decision. Not true now.

    Rival has Bosingwa and jammy Mata assists. I knew they would concede as soon as Bos got subbed. Absolutely fuming, having Terry doesn't feel so good now.

        I know that but my rival has been ridiculously lucky all season and things like that just compound matters. I got Terry in because I was certain he would score, always does after controversy. Has proven to be a good call yet only gains me 2 points in mini league because rival gets a fortunately timed substitution.

    It feels pretty great right now having planned and planned, deciding to do Baines + Sess + Rooney -> Terry + Pienaar + Torres, only to oversleep and miss the deadline by ten minutes.

      It's petty but also understandable. A lot of MLs are riding on this weekend.

      If however you aren't involved in a ML or it isn't even close they should take a look at themselves.

      No idea, but Suarez's hattrick > Torres's hattrick.

      That 3rd one was some goal. Kind of happy for Torres in a strange way, wouldn't be surprised if he started vs Newcastle and got a brace.
