Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

As the curtains are drawn on Gameweek 33, Manchester City fight to maintain their grip on a Champions League berth when they play host to West Ham United in the lunchtime kick-off. Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur cap off this round of fixtures with the day’s second encounter, with the hosts looking to recover from five straight defeats.

City go head-to-head with the Hammers in an attempt to stave off a run of defeats after setbacks at Palace and neighbours United. Although his efforts eventually proved futile, Sergio Aguero rediscovered his scoring touch at Old Trafford, bagging his fourth brace of the campaign; he sports the FPL armband for many today. Elsewhere, David Silva remains heavily backed, having scored in each of the last three at the Etihad. The Spaniard is part of a five-man midfield today, as Frank Lampard is drafted in to lend his goal threat in support of lone striker Aguero.

Visitors West Ham will hope that fit-again Enner Valencia can compensate for the absence of top scorer Diafra Sakho to improve their output in attack: the Hammers have tallied just four goals in their previous six league outings. Carlton Cole comes in for Sakho today in their only change to the lineup that were held by Stoke last time out.

Later today, Newcastle will pursue a first victory in six attempts when they lock horns with Tottenham at St James’ Park. Their quest to secure three points is hindered by the absence of Moussa Sissoko: he serves a suspension having received a red card against Liverpool on Monday.

Over in the Spurs camp, Harry Kane has drawn blanks in three of the last four Gameweeks but will be favoured against a Toon rearguard that’s shipped an average of two goals per match in their last seven. Christian Eriksen, meanwhile, will aim to snap out of a nine-match goalless run and looks poised for a major exodus next week as we start to reassemble our midfields for the double Gameweek fixtures: he’s already been sold more than any other player in the FPL overnight.

      I sold him - no regrets

      So much negativity will kill you.

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        And arrogance also.

  13. AIRMILES
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    1. AIRMILES
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Ah, it does. both on 31 at present.

    2. Cousin Greg
      • 10 Years

  14. Raddy

    1. Breadbin

    2. Tomeister

    Newcastle fans...

    Shouldn't have pushed pardew out the door should you?

    1. AIRMILES
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Shouldn't push Ashley out - he's invested loads in the club - cleared loads of debts. Newcastle fans are ungrateful c**ts (mostly).

  21. Baa

    Erisken gets winning goal bps right?

    1. Captain Shirokov
      • 13 Years

    1. Dušan Citizen

    4. Ludo

    5. Grounderz
      • 12 Years

      Thanks folks. Not watching the game at the mo.

      1. Jairzinho
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        It wasn't an Eriksen assist.

    6. Jairzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      It was Lamela...

  23. The ghost of a Pug's g…
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    How's this sound?

    Krul & Eriksen ---> migs & sterling (-4)

    Then another -4 for either:

    A) clyne ---> skrtel

    B) Sanchez ---> Coutinho

    Any thoughts?

    1. Danstoke82
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Looks good. I was pondering losing Sanchez. It's either him or Silva that's gonna go but not sure which one to pick!

    2. Jive Turkey
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      I'd do that

  24. McSauce
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    So eriksen is gonna lose that goal?

    1. Jax
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      No.

  25. Goodfella
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    How come Aguero isn't getting any BAPs?

    1. Breadbin
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Wasn't good enough.

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Clean sheet.

    3. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Read the rules

  26. Rains of Castamere
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Will probably end up

    3pts Eriksen
    2pts Chadli
    1pt Kane

    1. Clam. ☘️
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Excellent.

    2. Raddy
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Nah.

      Chadli
      Eriksen
      Kane

      1. Jairzinho
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        I think this

  27. Duke Silver ☑
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Should end up as Chadli 3, Erik 2, Kane 1.

    1. DV8R
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Surely Erik 3 for winning goal bonus?

      1. Jairzinho
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Still behind Chadli though

      2. Duke Silver ☑
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        3 bps, not 3 baps.

    2. Jax
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Nope chadli went off early. eriksen winning bonus

  28. super zlatan
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    May keep Kane rather than getting vardy.

    1. Worzel Gummidge
        9 years, 6 months ago

        I was doing it for a -4 so might hold fire now (I know it was just a goal). I was worried about Kanes' output against sou/MAN but tbh he could easily score and Vardy might end in tears especially with a hit.

    2. Lavaman
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      FU*K HARRY KANE!

      1. Breadbin
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        F you pal.

      2. Royal5
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        You don't have him? 😆

    3. Bøwstring The Carp

      54 after BPs.... meh.

      1. The Light Knight

      2. Jairzinho
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        69. Just annoyed that Aguero scored today (non-owner).
