The Dugout Discussion – Southampton vs Burnley

think its the 1st decent defender score i've gotten all season. and for 4,5m, not bad, not bad at all.

My ML rival was furious when Holebas scored 🙂

All three of my players today with him, Redmond and Friend performed.

I think he is off, Kolarov takes them when he is on the pitch.

Think he'll continue to take them. You don't want to damage your top strikers confidence by taking them off him. He might just practice in training a hit. Besides KDB missed one as well, it's not like they have amazing penalty takers lining up

His potential replacement didn't do so well during his audition, though.

Silva has taken them for Spain

His run up is awful. The hesitation one's don't work most of the time. Just smash it in ffs

If he is off penalties, he is gone. He has been very lucky with penalties and hasn't really deserved his price tag from open play. Even Ibra is doing better at a much worse team.

Possibly

But bear in mind, they also had a penalty when he was not on the field- and de Bruyne missed

So there are not many options, and I can't see kolarov getting too much gametime particularly if Kompany stays fit this time

How can he be taken off them though?

They give KDB a go and then he misses as well.....

City are just useless at penalties.

Yes, let KDB take them. Oh, wait...!

Sexis?

B or just save then use 2 frees to upgrade him

Maybe Snod? From this A or C, but maybe C more urgent because Evans is baned

Walcott get any more?

*Alli not Allen

Friends link?

Nice team. I'd rather get another Liverpool mid for their amazing run of fixtures

Costa for me.

Alexis

Diego. Walcott and Ozil doing very well to match Sanchez at the moment. Diego is flying on his own at Chelsea.

Alexis.

Costa. Because there are other options at Arsenal (Walcott, Ozil) whereas at Chelsea there is only Hazard and I've lost the faith

I will risk with cheaper one

I would lean towards Arnie if I could afford it - but the 1.4 price difference is significant.

I wouldn't want Allen as a fourth mid

Arnautovic has pedigree and plays further up the field. A better ball into him yday sets him up for a shot, rather than having to take wide and then pass to Allen

Not really with Man City away coming up next.

I've had him since day 1. It was between him and Bolasie to go for Sanchez. His stats are good and the games I've seen he has had so many chances. Im going to keep him for his price.

yes i've had him. he needs to become KDB but am 0.1 short. will probably do it over 2 weeks. not much chance of a rise, with austin being the saint of choice, but at least people won't sell so much now.

o/

he's not going to be explosive but I enjoyed the goal and extra 2 bonus pts

I have
His stats this gw matched KDB . Don't get how he produces so little with such good stats

I've had him all season, I think he gets chances but not a great finisher.

Will be looking to get rid in the next few weeks.

Snod -> Allen

Very nice team. Either cash Capoue or maybe do deeney to austin/Wilson???

Liverpool and Arsenal had trouble scoring at Turf Moor and Heaton is being brilliant. You really fancy Lukaku to score?

Burnley defence good at home, but lukaku can defiently score.

Reply fail to gonzalocampos

6.4

6.4

Holding long term or switching to Wilson for those fixtures?

I guess, what's the point of having Snoddy if you don't play him at home to Stoke! Might as well ahs a 4.5 bench fodder.

I'll be playing

Yeah, but for who?

People who gave Ibra the armband are
a) dead teams
b) teams who should post little to zero threat throughout the course of the season.

I would not worry

Your score + 1 😛

5th mid? If so maybe yes.... 😀

Points chasing is what I think. You missed the boat with Austin. Look at Southampton's fixtures, then factor EL rotation risk in.

GW14 for Southampton players I feel.

I almost got Austin for this week, but already have Redmond and then took a look at the next fixtures...

Rage quit ?

Not keen on relying solely on 2 teams for entire midfield

I might bight tongue tomorrow....but don't feel the mane love.

Coutinho is class and have 50%set pieces.
Lallana is cheaper and getting more returns.
Milner POO but on other half of set pieces (the best half).

United

It's not inevitable. He will need to score against the big boys more often like he did at the weekend before they come get him. I think he'd be a great Giroud replacement

C, at pool he will get ruined like Tekkers. Wouldn't fit in at city, with their passing and everything. Would never see him go to united so it's Chelsea or Arsenal for me(hopefully Chelsea!!!)

He has the stats and form.

Wait a week. Doubt it'll hurt points-wise

First OR update

First update

First GW update.

Speculation that Sanchez would get rested
Plus took hit to get him so always feels better to cap

Because Wally scored twice

I had it on Walcott all week. Then got Sanchez in for -4 on Friday night and captained him. No other reason than that. Not logical but sometimes your new player seems the most exciting choice.

Seems to forgot how to play

I'd say "why are you so crap"?

"Remember when you were good?"

i bet if he scores a brace against hull many around here will be all over him with the fixtures stoke have

Just need to hit the form and gain his confidence back . We all know he's a proven pl goal scorer

He might be actually. Was much better this week by all accounts. He has the class and the fixtures so maybe it's just a matter of time?
