Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – West Ham United vs Arsenal

A dramatic Saturday comes to its conclusion as West Ham United take on Arsenal at the London Stadium.

All eyes are on the Gunners’ Alexis Sanchez as he looks for a fourth double-figure haul on the road.

Having scored twice against Bournemouth last week, the Chilean headed into Gameweek 14 just one point off the top of the Fantasy Premier League standings.

An injury to Philippe Coutinho has prompted new interest in Theo Walcott – the wide man earned more transfers in than any player last week after notching his sixth of the season against Eddie Howe’s side.

The search for a new midfielder means we’ll also be monitoring the display of Dimitri Payet, with the Hammers’ schedule taking a turn for the better from Gameweek 16 onwards.

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

    Is it just me or is this quite a boring game?

  8. Arteta

    Wtf Ox?!

  9. CC22
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    7 years, 5 months ago

    Who do people think is more important Hazard or Costa?

    Currently thinking Aguero and de Roon to Defoe and Hazard for a -4...although could just do Aguero to Costa for free.

    1. Rossamous
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Costa for free no question. Use the extra funds to upgrade. Cheap defender to Alonso

      1. CC22
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        I've got Alonso already.

        Really want both Hazard and Costa to be honest but can't fit both in when already have Kane & Sanchez as well! Costa looked unplayable today though.

    Great pass Ox

  11. Jafooli
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Any reason to not do Aguero > Kane for free right now?

    1. The Royal Robin
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      No. But Costa is a better option IMHO.

      1. Jafooli
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Already have Costa...

    Any chance we can just cancel the second half of the Chelsea-City game and pretend it didn't happen?

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

      We can pretend it's cancelled if that helps.

  19. Somalion

    Ox, that was embarrassing.

    Decent shot and could have been a Sanchez assist.

  20. Rh4ziel
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    How was Austin today? Had any chances? Or kak?

    1. kalmoffit

    Who's NOT doing Aguero to Costa/Kane?

    1. Get up ya bum
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I'd imagine just about nobody

      1. Lawrø
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Iheanacho is an option...

        1. Get up ya bum
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          I wouldn't, but yeah a few other options. Austin, benteke, defoe.
          Majority of serious players will go one of the big boys. As will any casual that sees he is banned

    2. jurgenklopp.8
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      doing that but maybe nacho in for anichebe too

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

      Some are getting Zlatan.

      1. Get up ya bum
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        yeah him too. It was already very clear two of the four is a wise strategy. Now two from three

    4. fusen
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I had mccaule to alonso set up for my free transfer this week, still doing it but also doing aguero to costa now 😛

    5. JÆKS ⭐
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Some are buying Ibra

      4th most player transferred in so far behind Kane Costa Hazard

  24. Give The Todd Some Love
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Oxlold-Chamberlol

  25. FootballDog
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    tough choice , will sell Aguero and Anichebe

    a) Kane
    b) ibra

    and

    1) defoe
    2) austin

  26. Dreaming of glory
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Keep Phillips as 4th midfielder & upgrade
    A) Carrick> Sanchez
    Kun> 6.0 forward
    Or
    B) Phillips>Sanchez
    Kun > Austin

    Anyone else worried about Austin's rotation with long back now?

    1. Coaly
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      B

  27. JÆKS ⭐

    Scary times watching an Arsenal game when you don't own Sanchez ....

    1. President Giggs
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      It sure is, can see a lot of points for Sanchez here and my main rival has him (c)

  28. Somalion
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Commentator on my stream can't pronounce Shkodran so has taken to calling him Scott Dann Mustafi

  29. Mickey Tyrion™
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    So much space to run at that back line today. Sanchez haul on its way.

  30. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Honestly I'm so happy Aguero got a red, will make this game so much more fun

    1. kalmoffit
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      You won't want him in for Watford?

    2. Licious Lizard
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I disagree. Now everyone will have 2 out of Kane, Costa, Ibra. More fun when it was 2/4...
