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.

      He could be an owner trying to reverse psychology a goal or assist

    King is the guy your girl tells you not to worry about

    Now a Siggy assist and a Mawson goal and a late drawer through Siggy will make this week beautiful

      weekend i mean

    Had King the last three gameweeks.

    He's sitting pretty on 33 points over those games 😀

  11. Paul

    Repost... got lost in the assist flurry

    Seeing King play for the first time this season... the guy is genuinely a hard worker and practically everywhere

    Shame he doesn't have a DGW... otherwise would have been art of my team throughout the season

    C'mon now get a goal to wrap it up 😀

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Awful fixs though, not sure he's worth a slot with his next few games... Especially now that cash isn't as restricted with all the expensive injuries & high

    With all the King hype this week, someone said that we should be worried about Afobe

    What a bad day for Mawson

  14. Differentiator
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Llorente is severely disappointing me.

    1. The Big Fella
      • 7 Years

      This

  15. PvA

    Are you watching Phillips? This is how to be a proper 4th mid

    1. Differentiator
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Why would I be watching Phillips?

    2. Harper (No more Penandes)
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Phillips was a great 4th mid for a while. Then the bandwagon hit...

    Cork in the Bottle

  17. Lawrø

    This game is crying out for a penalty or two 😛

    1. Smurf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      One for each of King and Siggy would be perfect.

    New Zealand and England have the same record:
    18 & Ireland

    1. Bazzalona

  21. Syd.

    Amat out scoring Mawson 😎

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years

      LOL

    2. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years

    3. Les Bleus
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      And scoring the same as Hazard 😀

    4. Werkself
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      I came so close to making that Amat to Mawson transfer. 🙂

  22. Wild Rover
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Great to have so much money that I can keep King as fifth mid 😎

  23. Les Bleus
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    King great chance!!

  24. Sweetboi
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    King close.

  25. Yank Revolution

    7 years, 2 months ago

    I remember many warnings on here about doubling up on Swans attack, or, if needing one Swan, to get Siggy over Llorente.

    1. Somalion
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Definitely want Siggy first but really both hasn't been a bad call in recent weeks. Not sure what their game plan is today though, look a far cry from their Burnley performance

      1. Yank Revolution
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Llorente's hauls came with tiny ownership tho...once his bandwagon started, it was over.

  26. Hurricane Gilbert
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Awful performance by Swansea. Siggy the only one who can play football in that team tonight.

  27. Wild Rover

    Sod off Flappy

  28. PvA

    OMG WHAT A SAVE

    1. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Still lolling at Everton owners?

      1. George Sillett
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        You wouldn't expect anything else from him WR.

    2. Lawrø
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Top drawer

  29. Paul
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Not selling this King guy anytime soon!!!

    Almost a goal 😮

  30. Les Bleus

    So Wilshere has gone from the Arsenal bench to the Bournemouth bench? Hmm.
