Dugout Discussion

Dugout Discussion – Bournemouth vs Swansea

Saturday’s events conclude on the south coast as Bournemouth host Swansea City at the Vitality Stadium.

It’s a fitting finale for Fantasy managers, who will have keen interest in several key assets who promise another round of returns.

Josh King will be the headline act following his Gameweek 28 exploits that brought an 18-point return. More than 221,000 FPL managers swooped for the Norwegian ahead of today’s contest, with another 20,000 going so far as to hand him the armband.

But the Swans boast their own major assets, as Gylfi Sigurdsson looks to return points once again: he’s provided a goal or an assist in eight of his nine outings under Paul Clement.

Meanwhile, Fernando Llorente is fit to lead the attack for the Welsh club as he bids to reward a flood of new owners that arrived prior to Gameweek 28. More than 116,000 sold the Spanish striker ahead of this evening’s game following his one-point return and early exit at Hull City last weekend

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

                It had the tiniest amount of reverse spin. I would have grazed the inside of the post and in.

          Liverpool game was the making of him at this level. Showed he could do it. I wasn't convinced before. Did well at Ipswich on loan. Was a big talent when he left Aberdeen, could have been a bit early but has looked the part now. Hopefully Strachan will open the door to some new faces

          7 years, 2 months ago

          Frustrating how little faith we all have in fpl to make the right decision, eventually gonna turn people off fpl?

          • 8 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Mawson doing like McAuley. Scores some goals. Scores an og. McAuley then went on another goalscoring run afterwards, hopefully Mawson does the same
