Monday Dugout Discussion
Filed under: Dugout Discussion - Posted by: Mark
One of the lowest scoring Gameweeks in living memory will grind to unceremonious halt this evening, as we pop over to Upton Park under lights to witness Tottenham’s visit to West Ham. Fantasy managers will, of course, be watching, waiting and hoping on further returns from Gareth Bale – a player who has looked almost possessed in recent weeks. Can Big Sam’s outfit stop the Welsh express in its tracks or will Bale save the Gameweek for some?
Our Dugout Discussion chatroom opens up to grab the real-time expression of joy and frustration, with this article capturing your comments as the match unfolds.
The team news from the Boleyn Ground is significant for many – Guy Demel earns an unlikely recall to the West Ham lineup, handing plenty of Fantasy managers an unlikely full starting XI for the Gameweek. Demel returns along with James Collins to the Hammers back four, as Emmanuel Pogatetez and James Tomkins make way. Mark Noble is missing from the midfield with an arm injury, so Gary O’Neil earns a start, while Matt Jarvis replaces Matt Taylor. As for the visitors, Andre Villas-Boas makes one change from the victory over Newcastle, with Jan Vertonghen drafted in for Kyle Naughton at left-back; Lewis Holtby keeps his start, presumably playing off striker Emmanuel Adebayor.

Perchinho says:
Was gunna use my FT this week to do Giroud back to Suarez, but I reckon I might need to sort this defence out:
Onuoha, Clyne, Evans, Pearce & Dawson. 3 of them were on the bench this week and Clyne is averaging a point per game form the last 4 games, 2.7 in the bank, any suggestions?

How bad is the Nolan injury, anyone know? I have to do either Nolan -> Sissoko or Demel -> Rafael before the prices change.
