Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Saturday

A trio of three o’clock showdowns continue Saturday’s proceedings before we drop in on Stamford Bridge for the evening encounter.

Palace host Southampton at Selhurst Park, with the likes of Adam Lallana and Rickie Lambert hoping to spoil the hosts’ clean sheet. Norwich entertain Stoke at Carrow Road – Robert Snodgrass will carry the Canaries’ attacking threat as John Ruddy and his defence attempt to register a fifth successive shut-out in front of their own fans. Finally, the bottom two go head-to-head in Wales, as Cardiff and Fulham attempt to clamber out of the drop zone.

Those matches lead us up nicely to the concluding match of the Gameweek, where league leaders Chelsea entertain Spurs at the Bridge. Leader of this week’s Captain Poll, Eden Hazard, carries the armband hopes of many as Jose Mourinho’s side look for a win that would stretch their lead at the summit to seven points.

As always, you can look to our Twitter feed for news of today’s teamsheets, while our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open and will accompany you through today’s matches right through until the last kick at the Bridge.

    why the feck dont we have a 3rd video ref... who can quickly review mistakes by the ref and give the correct decision.....its seriously ruining the game and will be the main reason for this Chelsea win....disgusting. they can do it in Rugby, tennis, cricket etc so why not football. surely that is more of a priority than goal line tech.

      Couldn't agree more, the argument for not doing it to maintain the run of play is ridiculous, in most cases the game is stopped anyway and otherwise it isn't worth ruining a match for the sake of 'the run of play'.
