Dugout Discussion – Saturday

A quartet of afternoon kick-offs keep the Gameweek rolling, with plenty of interest in a range of mid-price Fantasy assets.

Swansea City’s Jordan Ayew is among the most signed players in action, having claimed another 139,000 owners ahead of his home meeting with Burnley. The Ghanian has four goals in his last seven Gameweeks.

Theo Walcott has also proved a popular acquisition this week, with 128,000 managers snapping him up having watched him produce two goals and an assist in his previous two home matches on Merseyside. He takes on Crystal Palace at Goodison Park today.

Pascal Gross also features among the top ten most signed ahead of today’s deadline, with 126,000 swooping for the Brighton playmaker. He returned 13 points in the 3-1 win over West Ham last time out.

The German will face a rejuvenated Stoke City side who have kept two clean sheets in their three matches under new manager Paul Lambert. Xherdan Shaqiri is the Potters’ own big asset on show – he goes into today’s contest owned by 498,000+ managers.

West Ham host Watford in the final three o’clock encounter. All eyes will be on Gerard Deulofeu in this one; following his 13 points against Chelsea on Monday; the winger has been signed by 192,000, second only to Arsenal pair Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang ahead of today’s deadline.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Aaron Cresswell. Underrated, hard working lad. Wasted talent at back three.

    Cruel game, I have Mee and ML rival has Ryan. Big swing of points the wrong way in the last 5-10 mins 🙁

    Successful play with the BB chip so far. Adrian and Ogbonna double CS.

    36 with Otamendi, Jones, VVD, Alonso, Sterling, Salah, JWP, Firmino and Quaner to go.

      Anything above 15 is good imo, but why this week when you held it this long

      1. The Royal Robin
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Why not? So far I have 13 with 2 go play on my bench.

        1. Zilla
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 2 months ago

          DGWs? 2x opportunities?

          1. The Royal Robin
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 2 months ago

            See below. The BB wouldn't benefit me in any shape or form in a DGW anyway, I won't have a starting XI all playing twice let alone a bench too. This has been the best use of the chip for me personally. So far anyway.

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      I mean, fair enough, but why didn't you want to play it in a DGW?

      1. The Royal Robin
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, I expected a bit of that, but I'm fairly happy with how it's gone so far.

      2. The Royal Robin
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Not to mention I don't have my 2nd WC, so I won't have a starting XI + 4 subs all involved in a DGW anyway.

    wow

    Ogbonna on bench. Kenny came on and gave me a 1pointer. Contented with the cleansheet from Adrian.

  15. GAMBIT

    No save point for Fab? That's a bit odd... How bad are Burnley?

  16. Sims

    Ugh shaqiri 3 baps very annoying . Jmmy casuals

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Not jammy if you intended to bring him in and play him 🙂

    2. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      I don't consider that casual. He was a viable candidate for Arnie replacement.

    3. Licious Lizard (delete acc)
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Too bad your casual Walcott pick didn’t do anything...

      Walcott once again playing us for suckers. Most underachieving footballer in the Premier League of the past decade.
