Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Gameweek 3 – Saturday

Saturday afternoon continues with a quintet of fixtures to entertain us before Everton square up to Chelsea later on. For many, the main focal point will be at the Etihad as we look to see whether Sergio Aguero will be let off the leash against Stoke, with Stevan Jovetic’s owners anticipating another home brace from the Montenegro striker.

Newcastle have been heavily backed in this week’s Scout Picks and we’ll be hoping to see new boy Siem de Jong justify our show of faith ahead of a very kind run of fixtures. Fantasy managers will also get to run the rule over Palace’s potential in the St James’ Park encounter as Neil Warnock takes the helm for a second time.

Elsewhere, Fantasy favourites such as Steven Caulker will be hoping to make an impact at home to Sunderland, while Gylfi Sigurdsson’s growing band of owners are expecting returns for the third Gameweek in succession as Swansea prepare for the visit of West Brom. West Ham welcome Southampton to Upton Park as Big Sam pins his hopes on Mauro Zarate to inspire his side to another win.

You can look to out Twitter feed for all the lineup from today’s matches.

    Burnley deserve this CS, although everyone will say Manchester United have played poorly (which they have) burnley have been excellent at the back!

      Utd haven't beaten them at Turf Moor for 35 years.

    I'm sorry 10.5 for UTD cover is a joke

      Not really. Rooney is well proven as a top fantasy player.

    Come on, Jovetic!!

    Anderson taking corners for united, and Blackett playing long through balls. Really sums up United's performance

    LVG gone by jan?

      Not this one. The players will go first if they don't buck up.

      Based on what? silly post.

    Exciting games now. Jov(C) and Aguero as well as scouting Tadic and De Jong as Mata replacement.

    1. 50shades of o'shea
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Scout Cabella 😀 him and tadic in my team

      1. Rivaldo Izback
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Cabella is my CAPTAIN 😀 😀

      2. Prime
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I've seen Cabella, not too hot about him.

          He was great at Montpellier and has looked good so far..

          1. Nice to Finally Michu
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Great is an overstatement, his goal numbers were skewed by the unprecedented amount of penalties

  8. Tony Yeboah

    stoke going 2 up top....should leave plenty of space for city attack and my captain aguero

  11. Mull
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Why would anyone get rid of a United defender?

    1. Les Bleus
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Jones has been a rock. Not getting rid before GW8 at least

    2. Heydudes13
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Tbf, I only kept because the next two (Burnley, QPR) are that bad.

  12. Billy Gilmore
    • 11 Years

    Mata + Costa –> de Jong + Aguero going well so far 🙂

    1. Acquafresca
      • 12 Years

      1. Billy Gilmore
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Nope. Didn't want him either.

        1. Mull
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Too many left sided Serbians in the team 😉

      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years

      Yes, Tadic.

    2. Reedy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Sounds good. I took them out for Aguero & Siggy this week; form over fixtures, however good they are.

  15. Wouter

    Van Gaal: "I believe that when we play against QPR, Rojo will have his permit."

  16. Rivaldo Izback
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Arsene Wenger is an IDIOT... Why he didn't take REMY?????

  22. joe259
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    My mid and forwards:

    sterling, ramsey, di maria, siggy, FABREGAS
    costa, DZEKO

    Since I don't have spurs cover, I am thinking of getting ADEBAYOR for dzeko. As a result, I will be left with no city cover. So Fabregas to Silva.
    Is it worth selling Fab to get Silva??
    Really confused.

  23. Geordienufc1
