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.

    Defoe 6, Bolasie 1, Kane 2. Could be worse to be honest, hoping Chelsea demolish Swansea.

    Actually given United heavy investment in the midfield, clean sheets may not be as rare as they were last campaign.

    Anyone using the FPL app? Is the latest points page showing 'bench boost played'? I can't find it saying it anywhere on the site and I don't think I did it accidentally. I'd imagine it would ask you to confirm when you select it. Hoping it's just a bug.
