Dugout Discussion – Saturday

Following on from Southampton’s 1-0 defeat of Palace at Selhurst Park, we focus our attentions on five 3pm kick-offs.

Liverpool and Man City both supply two of the top 10 captains for the Gameweek.

Roberto Firmino and Mo Salah are backed by 4% and 2% respectively as the Reds’ welcome to Anfield.

Both have already bagged two sets of double-digits in the opening four Gameweeks and were in the goals in Wednesday’s Champions League draw against Sevilla.

Meanwhile, Sergio Aguero (4%) and Gabriel Jesus (2%) were also in scoring form in midweek as Pep Guardiola’s side breezed past Feyenoord.

The Etihad outfit have racked up nine goals in their last two matches in all competitions and travel to Watford looking for a repeat of last season’s 5-0 win at Vicarage Road.

Elsewhere, Jamie Vardy heads to Huddersfield on the back of three goals in his first four Gameweeks – all scored against Arsenal and Chelsea.

Newcastle’s Joselu and Stoke’s Eric Choupo-Moting boast some strong underlying numbers as they square up at St James’ Park. Over 235,000 drafted in the Cameroon international after he bagged a brace in last Saturday’s home draw with Man United.

The Magpies’ Rob Elliot is once again the most benched player in the Gameweek – despite serving up back-to-back clean sheets, over 853,000 owners have named him as a sub.

West Brom and West Ham clash at the Hawthorns after contrasting results last week.

Hauled off just after the hour-mark in the 2-0 win over Huddersfield, Javier Hernandez was subject to over 230,00 transfers out – only Sadio Mane and Paul Pogba were jettisoned by more managers over the previous week.

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

      You and me both. KDB may be the one to free up funds.

      Same as, but that could mean wildcard. I started off this year very well all things considered but I've been struggling and been lucky to stay afloat last week and even worse this week.

      That's like trying to make grape juice look like wine.

    What a horrible feeling not owning a player who scores a hat trick. A work rival captained aguero and all. Ugh.

    Micky to Sterling looks like a good move to me, free some funds also.

  19. Gt1996

    Firmino + Alli > Kun + Ritchie for -4?

    Don't want to cut Alli but need to get the money for Kun from somewhere

  20. Bushido
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Opinion please.
    Would you do Antonio to Ritchie
    Then firminho to (Aguero/Lacazette/Jesus)

    What does it take, man... My two major gambles from the start, TAA and Knockaert, both promising so much and delivering so little, what a pain
