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.

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

        Don't get why Costa was flagged? I thought after Hazard Flag Gate, Mark said there needed to be sources confirming any injury post-match.

        Were there any quotes from Conte on Costa's injury? Seems like there's nothing wrong with him

          Costa was lying on the floor for about a minute, the doctors came on and he signalled that he needed to be substituted.

          If that doesn't say a flag is needed, I don't know what does.

        Have to say kudos to anyone who got rid of Aguero and got in Kane prior to this gw, surely for everyone with Aguero this has now got to be the obvious transfer...

          Kudos for a lucky pen and Kun getting sent off

          Aguero to Costa for me I think

            Kane v Swansea obviously a better prospect than Kun v Chelsea

        Hugely satisfying afternoon so far!

        Kane (C), Benteke, Hazard, Evans

        One step ahead too with Aguero removed this morning!

        Level with rival. He has:
        Ozil, Coleman and Negredo (c) left.
        I have:
        Cech, Francis, Mané, Martial, and Mkhi left.
        Anyone think I've got it?

        Eurgh, I was going to do Agero > Costa, but him coming off injured has put doubt in my mind.
        It is him or Ibra.

        Did Allen have a poor one? he's my fourth mid!
