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.

    Midfielders I've sold: Mata, Hazard, Silva, Sterling and Siggy all have had attacking returns the next week, with only Sterling failing to get a goal 😆

      Who are you selling this week? 😀

    Absolutely love that sigurdsson has become a strong differential this week due to 1) sales and 2) benching

    Especially so in my ML.

      Most of Swansea's attacking play goes through him, he scores, he assists, he assists the assister and he assists the assister to the assist.

      I think he falls under the "play or don't own" category.

    2. Belsunz
      • 10 Years

      Season's keeper for me, always capable of assist/goal.

  3. Messiah Hazard

    • 12 Years

    Siggy out Hazard in was a waste transfer in hindsight.

    Thoughts on Berahino to Austin? Got a free transfer to use or lose.

    1. Steevo

      I'd get in the Newcastle bloke and save some $$$$$

  7. Rats Ass

    FPL site seems to say that 380,000 people transferred Siggy out this GW. Really?

    1. Rats Ass
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Sorry, 338,000

      1. Jimmers
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

        That's total for the season, not the last week

    2. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      No - only 70,000 (the fools!) 😉

      1. Rats Ass

        Thought it was massive! Using wrong filter.

    3. Puzzle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      It was because of Sanchez I believe. I sold Siggy to get him. Siggy has been a bit disappointing lately to be fair

    Cheers Sanch (C). 🙂

  9. SW6

    Thoughts on these moves please

    sterling , welbeck + tadic 》sanchez , sakho + chadli for -4

    Foster - krul

    reid - clyne - naylor - chambers - shackell

    sterling - tadic - siggy - di maria - jedinak

    welbeck - aguero - diego costa

    Can I get some feedback please? Dunno what to do....

    Begovic McCarthy
    Baines Moreno Clyne Naylor Moore

    Aguero Pelle Welbeck

    1 FT and 0.4 itb. Any ideas?

      Looks ok. Maybe begovic out?

      1. Fantasy Gold

        Not with Burnley at home next.

    2. RSe
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      As a non-Sanchez owner I am worried gonna be priced out soon. Im contemplating losing ADM to get him in.

    3. MARVELLUS
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Tadic out? Chadli?

  12. Bubz
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Didn't expect to be so gutted to have a score of 72. Lost out on 21 points selling Siggy and benching Coloccini. Should have just put my feet up and kept last week's team and saved a transfer. The joys of FPL 🙂 .

    1. Fantasy Gold
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Only 66 for me 😉

    2. BabyB
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      There is a lot to be said for doing nothing sometimes.

      2. Bubz
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Absolutely. So many times I change my team for the worse.

    3. CABAYE4
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Similarly annoyed with my 67.

      Sold Cahill and bought Saylor rather than Dummett.

    4. Vardy Gras PBFC
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I was on 41 going into today but Baines, Dummett, Sanchez and Siggy saved me and looking like 77 post BPS - could have been a lot worse.

      What I have l learnt from this weekend is when choosing between two strikers playing bottom of the league opposition, pick the World Class one.

  13. MattysFantasyFooty

    And it's Arsenal, Arsenal FC we're by far the greatest team the world has ever seen...

      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Just out of interesting, why have people been selling/benching Sigurdsson? He's ridiculously consistent, feels like people really have no patience this season?

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

        You wouldn't have known he was playing today if he didn't score the free kick.

      2. Demí
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Fixtures, and hadn't scored since GW 1 i guess.

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

        He had a really good run of games and only had about 2 shots in that entire period. He then scores a worldie against Arsenal and suddenly he's essential again.

    4. Dynamic
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      65(-4) from 6k. Red arrow?

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        I'm sure you'll be higher than the average, so only small if any.

      2. Steevo
