Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Saturday

Saturday continues with a quartet of matches, featuring Arsenal and an array of budget and mid-price Fantasy talent.

The Gunners trip to a resolute Aston Villa will likely be the headline act on show: Arsene Wenger’s men will look to recover from the midweek Champions League defeat to Dortmund against Paul Lambert’s resurgent midlands outfit. Alongside that, we’ve an enthralling encounter at the Liberty Stadium as Swansea and Southampton prepare to press and weave patterns around the South Wales pitch.

Elsewhere, Alan Pardew will look to extend his stay of execution at Newcastle via a winnable home clash with Hull City, while Burnley go in search of their first three points back in the top flight as Gus Poyet’s erratic Sunderland unit pull up to Turf Moor.

We may well be discussing some very meagre Fantasy points tallies by 4.50, as we prepare to make our way to East London to check in on West Ham’s progress, as they host Brendan Rodgers’ title pretenders, Liverpool.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    1. mdm
      • 12 Years

        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Naismith will get decent pts against Liverpool next week

  4. Bolivian Seaman
    • 13 Years

    I think I will double up on saints defence

    1. SC not pearls before swine
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Yeah, I've been planning on doing that for ages, but just never had the time to spend a transfer on my defense...

    3. Kerz
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Jesus that's quality. And it's not like he made only a few

      1. applebonkers
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        32, just made enough. probably about 40 if he payed full 90. strikers making the 30 is relatively rare though and is a very good asset to have

      2. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 10 Years

        31/32 😀

  7. Revival

    Liverpool can't even use the excuse that they played away in Europe this week

    1. goriuanx
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      There's no excuse

  8. jdogg
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Rodgers signing history is not great.was lucky to have suarez last year.x

    1. Rats Ass
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Who has Rogers signed? Suarez was there when he joined.

      1. jdogg
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Allan- poor
        Borini -poor
        Sakho-poor
        Coutinho good for about a month then poor
        All this seasons signings dont look great so far.

        Sturridge bout the only one thats looked good.

        He didnt thats what i mean got lucky he was there

        Dont doubt hes a good coach improved alot of players .but his signing history aint the best imo.x

      2. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Sturridge, Coutinho and brought through Sterling. His history is a bit iffy, but he's had his moments.

        1. jdogg
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Yeh.i have no doubt he can coach players better.but not sure about his signings

          Aspas, that other spanish guy last season.moses on loan,toure llori asaidi.x

          1. jdogg
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Luis alberto thats the spanish guy. Mignolet-ok but not even close to riena.x

      All these scores seem low, was expecting somebody to start off with 50 points

    27. RyanC
      • 9 Years

      23 with Mirallas (c), Aguero, Costa, Hazard and Evans to play. Pre BAPs.

      😀

  12. applebonkers
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 14 Years

    sakho due winning goal bonus and sterling inevitable minus for losing ball

    1. Djerbil
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      yeah could switch between them for 2 and 3 BAPS

  13. Think Tank
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Too many new faces in this Liverpool team - like Tottenham last year.

    1. Frank Black
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Not enough new faces in that defense...

  14. Djerbil
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Liverpool fans :

    Sing a song at the start of a game
    ------------------------------Silence------------------------------
    Sing the same song at the end

    Best Fans in the League supposedly

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 12 Years

      😆

    2. Lawrø
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      But that's simply not true, you have so many things you could troll us about now and you choose that!

      Very poor effort 🙂

  15. Green Arrow
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Sterling to get 3 BPS?

    1. Granville
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Depends how many times he lost the ball.

    2. Stupendous
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Yup Sterling max baps!! Mental

    3. Djerbil
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      2/3 , points to get deducted for Ball dispossession

  16. OPTA FPL
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    any Liverpool fan know why Rodger let Agger out, instead of Skrtel? and buy Lovren (he isnot better than Agger)

  17. Make United Great Again
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Liverpool are back!

    In all seriousness, we could finish above them this year and get top 4.

  19. The Sarjeant
    • 10 Years

    Sterling likely to secure all three bonus points?

  20. Yome
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Glad I didn't ship Terry, Moreno is more pressing to kick out

  21. SoapFC
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    sterling as captain, hopefully he stays on 3 baps, 20 points on sterling would be a nice finish, shame I had moreno though :L
