Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Saturday

After Chelsea’s dramatic win at the Etihad, there are five 3pm kick-offs to keep us ticking over.

Harry Kane carries the armband hopes of many Fantasy Premier League managers for Gameweek 14 – the Spurs forward earned 32% of the Captain Poll votes against a Swansea outfit that have conceded at three times in four of their six matches under Bob Bradley.

Second only to Kane for transfers up front since last week’s deadline, Southampton’s Charlie Austin travels to a Palace defence that have been breached in all 13 Gameweeks so far.

Jermain Defoe also earned plenty of new owners ahead of Sunderland’s home encounter with Leicester. The top value forward in FPL, he faces a defence that have conceded 16 times on their travels – no side have shipped more.

All three forwards have the chance to stake a claim as our Sergio Aguero replacement, in light of the City striker’s dismissal earlier today.

Over in the midlands, West Brom’s Matt Phillips looks to continue the form that has racked up two goals and three assists in the last three Gameweeks as Watford roll up to the Hawthorns.

Back from a one-match ban, Stoke’s Joe Allen is only named amongst the subs against a Burnley side that have conceded at least three times in all but one of their away matches.

    Essentials:

    Pickford (cheap GK), Alonso, Hazard, Firmino, Costa, Kane

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      What happens if you don't have one of those players?

    2. SuperMario
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Sanchez

    3. Arteta
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I disagree.

    As a Man United fan i am really worried that Harry Kane is coming to town next week

    1. makaveli123

      He'll struggle 😉

    Kane is shooting on sight to get his hatty. needs to think a bit more. All shots are straight at the keeper.

    1. Numb
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

    Busquets litterally just recieved and simple pass, unmarked, and nowhere near the goal and Ray Hudson nearly orgasmed about him.

    1. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      He avoided a tackle. Still, not worthy of the extreme praise.

      1. TheSteel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Before that

    • 10 Years

  21. SuperMario
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Wonder who will those who don't have Costa and Kane go for to replace Kun...

  22. Danstoke82

  23. Royal5
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Kane could've had 5 goals by now
