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.

    Bournemouth's Stadium is small...feels like a FA Cup Game

      28k Apparently. I don't believe that, looks about 15k

      Mings can only get better.

    Please Wilson score a brace
    It would be a grace
    Especially after this game
    In which we did not see Kane
    Score a graceful brace....

    Sinclair looks great for 5.0

    1. Drip Doctor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      He hasn't even played yet.

      Keep telling yourself that

        Guy's not saying he wants Sinclair to marry his sister.
        He's saying Sinclair *could* represent decent value in that price range.

        But, tell us if you've got another 5mil / 5th mid who managed 150pts the last time he played 1st team football in mind?

    3. GuyIncognito

      Not sure how many penalties Villa are going to win this year.

    4. Bellerinmondo

      Might not be nailed when grealish is back

      1. Sheeeit
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        If he scores or just looks good today, he's probably nailed. Villa don't have a wealth of talent to choose from.
