Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Gameweek 4 – Monday

Gameweek 4 comes to its conclusion this evening as Hull play host to West Ham at the KC. It’s one of those occasions where a goalless draw may best serve Fantasy managers – neither team has a midfielder or attacker with over 3% ownership in the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) game, a clear sign of our lack of faith in their respective attacks.

The team news is in and sees Steve Bruce make two changes from the side that lost to Villa last time around. New boys Mo Diame and Abel Hernandez both come into the starting XI at the expense of Tom Ince and Paul McShane, while fellow deadline-day signings Hatem Ben Arfa and Gaston Ramirez are afforded a place on the bench. James Chester is also amongst the subs as the Tigers boss opts for a four-man backline.

Sam Allardyce makes a trio of alterations to his first-team. Guy Demel comes in for Joey O’Brien at right-back, while summer signings Diafra Sakho and Enner Valencia get the nod as Carlton Cole and Ricardo vaz Te drop to the bench. Carl Jenkinson recovers from injury to be named amongst the subs along with new boys Alex Song and Morgan Amalfitano.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

  13. Wouter

      9 years, 7 months ago

      Maybe by the letter of the law. But that should be an OG all day long.

  17. svasei - Up (?) the Rovers

    Omg, no Davies. OG! 🙁 Hasn't been very good for me this season. Need a corner goal soon.

    2. OShaughnessy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      He's such an offensive threat.
      I don't know if Bruce can afford to leave him there much longer. 😉

      I've got 10 pound on 3-2 West Ham @ 35/1 , looking possible

    • Mull

      Chester 0, Davies -1 😆

    • RubberDucky
        9 years, 7 months ago

        That's an oggy all day long!

      • BayerNevaLusen
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Well. I guess Chester playing may turn out to be a good thing for us. At this rate all defenders are going to get 0 points

      • Dr Dream
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        This is why is dislike the template so much...It's boooring...Has anybody got any of these goalscorers tonight...Hat's off to you if you do...

        2. Obi Wan Elokobi
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Think this makes it a better game not being worried about anyone actually scoring.

        3. DGW blindness is for Kinnea…
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Hence why me and Trigger bang on about price system. But I have gave it some thought and think I may have found some light at the end of the tunnel

          9 years, 7 months ago

          If you feel that way play daily fantasy but, to think anyone would choose any of these players in a season long format is ridiculous.
