Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Saturday

An inauspicious start at Old Trafford leads us into four more Premier League encounters, with all three promoted sides in action.

Bournemouth host Aston Villa at “Vitality Stadium” (no really), Norwich take on Alan Pardew’s emerging Palace lineup at Carrow Road, while Watford make the testing trip to Goodison Park to face Everton.

Leicester and Sunderland complete the quartet, with Claudio Ranieri making his Premier League return in the Foxes hot-seat as he locks horns with Black Cats boss, Dick Advocaat.

These four matches are followed by the late kick-off at Stamford Bridge as champions Chelsea open their account against Garry Monk’s Swansea.

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

    How's Fabregas playing? I bet on him having a strong start to the season.

    my swansea triple-up defence is looking a bit dodgy

      Going to be 3-0, all scored by Haz and set up by Ivan

    Ahh, the worst scenario. Chelsea winning, no points. Same old, same old. :/

    Hazard (c) fail 😀

    But I half expected that and am anticipating a fire sale if he doesnt bring in the points ..... Had to have him just in case, but question is, who is the best replacement? Could be some interesting tranfers over the next few days ....

    (Unless Haz scores in the 2nd half, of course!)

    We had to have Hazard C to cover half the players. Relax not even have our players have played yet. If they have get wildcarding haha
