Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Crystal Palace vs West Ham

We head to Selhurst Park for Saturday’s final fixture as Palace and West Ham’s dodgy defences go head-to-head.

Christian Benteke warmed up for this one with a midweek hat-trick against Gibraltar and will fancy his chances against a rearguard that conceded more goals than any other over the first seven.

Subject of a recent members article, the in-form Dimitri Payet has racked up a goal and four assists in four starts for the visitors and chipped in with a goal and assist for France over the break.

Michail Antonio has netted in each of his last two away outings – at Man City and West Brom – suggesting he could punish his recent batch of sellers against a Palace backline that’s yet to keep a clean sheet.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

  14. Wild Rover
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Haha, Benteke (c) zero points will still be a relative success 😎

    1. Costa's Counsellor
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Good point.

    2. Odikostar

  16. Pirlø's Pen
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Aguero (C) and Benteke. FFS.

    1. Pirlø's Pen
      • 8 Years

    2. Pirlø's Pen
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

  18. Jay_
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I wonder if anyone owns a combo of Aguero, KDB, Benteke. With double WBA defence. Must be a few hundred at least.

      1. some witty pun
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        thats me without KDB

      2. Rinseboy
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Why double wb defence?

        No-one got on the end of Benteke's cross from the penalty spot.

        1. Costa's Counsellor
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          Don't pick anyone who takes penalties.

        Looking through your FPL mini-league and seeing Agüero(c) all over the shop: http://i2.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article4432350.ece/ALTERNATES/s1023/ecsImgcb7d7b8c-237b-42fd-9c10-765d78a1e363-9128453316633261143-copy.jpg

          Ok my comment got lost in the lolteke train.
          Snodgrass to Allen a good move for free?

          1. Hansel
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          Why didn't Callum Wilson take the penalty today?

          Is he the one who never takes any that he earned himself, or am I thinking of someone else? Cheers

          1. BrockLanders
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            I thought he was on them too bit I can't complain over a goal assy combo

            • 8 Years
