Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

Sunday provides a quartet of matches, bristling with Fantasy talent and the promise of points aplenty.

Three afternoon matches get us underway at White Hart Lane, the Hawthorns and the Stadium of Light, before we take a trip to south Wales as Arsenal and the on-fire Alexis Sanchez crash in at the Liberty Stadium.

The big team news surrounds today’s encounter between Spurs and Stoke, where Harry Kane, priced at just 4.8 in the Fantasy Premier League, is given his first league start after firing nine goals in all competitions. We’ll be monitoring his impact in that one, whilst keeping one eye on Everton’s Leighton Baines’ progress in the clash with Sunderland. Meanwhile, in the Midlands, we can assess Newcastle’s progress as they drop in on West Brom with an array of low-to-mid price differentials on show – not least Saido Berahino.

Once that trio of matches concludes, it’s over to Swansea and Arsenal to see us out, as Sanchez goes for his fourth double figure haul in as many Gameweeks.

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

        9 years, 5 months ago

        Ignore, Sanchez just gone from 31 to 36, so looks set for 3 BAPs

        1. Jude Rooney
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          1. Tangerine Army XI
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            No idea, looked and they were both on 31, refreshed and Sanchez has gone to 36

            Sanchez 3
            Siggy 2
            Gomis 1 (match winning pts not yet added)

    Angel Rangel is such a cool name

    1. Dušan Citizen
      • 10 Years

      Rangel Angel Di Maria 😀

      1. Green Arrow

        What you want is a Sharapova at the end of that

    How will 72 points do this GW?

    1. JWF
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      It'll do you just fine if you're trying to match my points total.

    2. Red Star Toro
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      kinda good, not great though.

    3. Steevo

      Deece. Small green overall assuming no hits.

    4. Caine & Co.
      • 13 Years

      quite shite

  4. Bartowski

    Starting to think that Sanogo is actually part of some Trading Places style bet Arsene Wenger has made with some other old, crusty, white dude...

    @ Fellow Alexis Non-Owners

    Food for thought. Upon his introduction Walcott's playing more forward than Alexis! What to do?

    1. Evs
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I have a decision to make.

      Bring in...

      Sanchez

      Or

      Costa

      ?

      1. Whistle
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        or both if you want top 5 again? 😀

      2. AAAAA
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Sanchez surely, you have Rooney and Studge returning too in the mix next week. Along with these great mid priced forwards to go with Kun.

        Plus Sanchez will continue to get lucky as long as he plays a CF

    2. rickardinho
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Don't let that goal fool you, Sanchez wasn't great today. I'm not panic-buying him

    3. Ricky - it doesn\'t ta…
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I think alexis is still the best choice

    4. Rafabio
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Still not getting 😉

      He's no Ramsey of last year and I did ok without Rambo

    5. AAAAA
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Get Alexis.

      I'm ignoring Sanchez, and may take a punt on Walcott
      2 games now when Wally has come on, Sanchez has further back

    7. iNFL8r
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Walcott looked good last 10, could've easily scored and took a corner.

      I think I'm going to go for Wally.

    Well, Arsenal are indeed a one man team. IRL and FPL wise. Welbz out, 100% for me.

    Great singing by the Jacks.

  8. galway77

    The bps is a complete and utter joke... how can 2 players on the losing side end up with 3bp....

    1. UnderstandablyDistraught
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      shut up until they're adjusted

      1. Alan The Llama
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Your name is very appropriate

  9. Punty
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Sanchez prolly 2bps anyway, gomis winning goal

  10. Limbo
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    whoop

    Well done Swans

  11. mbrucie

    What we learnt this week:

    - Chelsea are rent boys
    - We're all buzzing for Southampton and Swansea
    - City are shitty, Arsenal are Arsenal
    - United love false hope
    - Liverpool can't win
    - BARE FANTASY POINTS FOR ME

    1. Tomlette Greggs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

    1. mbrucie

    2. Mull
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      you weren't being so smug when we got Downing's big 13 points last week.

  20. Del Monte
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years

    What are the final BAPs?

    1. addictedtofpl
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      3 Points (36 BPS): Sánchez
      2 Points (31 BPS): Sigurdsson
      1 Point (27 BPS): Gomis

      1. Calm
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Complete b*ll*cks. Sanchez was crap.

  23. Wilshere Knowledge
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Useless again. Fast winger against a centre back at right back crosses to a striker who out jumps a full back at centre back. It's not rocket science Wenger!!!! Oh, and FPL? Terrible.

  24. Total Foot 5 - romario 11

      Perfect

  26. Mull

    Sigurdsson first goal in 10 GWs. #essential

    1. rickardinho
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      haha yeah, siggy and sanchez weren't great today but FPL points blind people to that fact

    2. Halftime
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      He got a nice few assists for his price during that period though.

  27. rickardinho
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Oscar>Siggy has come back to bite me in the arse. Hopefully his price stays at 6.7 so I can get him for Tadic in two weeks

  28. lilmessipran
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    NEED help with this lads
    Rambo and pehle to sakho and Sanchez for a -4 yay or nay?should I do it now can't wait for Sanchez price rise

  29. Red Star Toro
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    77 + 8 BAPS incoming.

  30. @ocprodigy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Sadly I think the average will be quite high in the top 100k (probably 60?) so hitting 80s won't be much of a big deal, but either way POINTS!
