The Dugout Discussion – Tottenham Hotspur vs Southampton

Which was?

Reply fail@ HVT :star:

Nice pagetopper.

Great page header.

I'd upvote if your grammar was better

Sounds like a good party trick

Not when its erect.

Probably the best opening line on a page I've read ... +1

Maybe....

Seems like there are a complete lack of options next week if you don't have costa or vardy

Let's see today first bug yea I hear ya.

Big Rom should nick a few in a high scoring derby. I'll stick.

Same. Planned on getting him out for Costa/Gabbi but might hold onto him with how poor Arsenal was.

Yes I am going with him most likely

77. Eriksen second half + Mane + Aguero

78 with the rest of Alli, Mane Sterling and Kun left.

70 pts with Alli(c) 2nd half to go, and Sane-Mane

69 (Alli 45) 2 to go

73 with Eriksen, Mane and Aguero

85 with Mané left.

77 with eriksen+mane+coutinho

79 with Eriksen, Sterling, Mané and Coutinho left.

67(-12) with Cout,Mane left

look at all these people with good scores, sigh

81(-4), half an Eriksen, Mane and Coutinho to go

88 with Eriksen 2nd half and Mane

61(-4) walker 2nd half and mane coutinho left

You must be going OK is my guess? 😉

47 with Coutinho and Aguero (c) to go
Not great looking at some of the fantastic scores by some of the community but it could be worse

85 (-4) Eriksen, Coutinho and Aguero to go.

77 with Mané and Sterling to go.

74 (-12) with walker and mane left.

78 Alli Eriksen Mane Aguero

70(-8) with Mane, Coutinho to go.

No

Maybe a little biased we'll leave it to that

English people are the most biased people ever

They think barkley is as good as kdb and eriksen hahahahaha

I seem to recall Alli being blasted by every pundit for that dive around the start of the season.

All players dive - it's a blight on the game!

So when Vardy was called out the other day...?

Even Graham Souness is sticking up for alli. I thought he would've called him out on it

I've heard them saying Aguero should fall over a little easier - he never goes down - don't agree.

for Son?

70min

On 59 minutes for Son meaning he gets 1 point. Just as a sympathy appearence

Looks like..

definitely

Hell no?

Don't think this is a good time. I was going to but too many uncertainites among top picks.

I don't know, think you could fix it in a couple of transfers, bring in Mahrez and alli or something

Nothing you can do about either of those! Pure bad luck

Like that's gonna happen 😛

Aguero to produce his usual red card challenge

That Valenciacgoal was pretty galling 🙁

Yep. Plus Walker:)

Son jetting off to Asia. He was always a risky punt

Yup-you called it!

Thought you said Soldado then

Poch should have learned not to play Jan by now.... at least not until he kicks in

You can't assist yourself, unless you're going to start giving assists for all solo goals as well?

Because you can't assist yourself. Just like in open play you don't get an assist for creating your own chance.

You can't assist yourself. By definition you assist someone else

It would be pretty weird assisting your goal. You're saying that if someone dribbles the ball from half line to get the goal he should get the assist as well??

If you want to change the rules it would be better if the person who passed to Alli who then won the penalty gets the assist, not Alli.

I fear there may be more than this that you don't understand......

Does the player only get baps for the penalty and none for the assist? ... knew about points but not baps

It's a poor deal if you are a striker who wins and takes penalties ... you need to score 3 out of 4 to get 1 more point than the 3 possible assists ... and the misses lose you baps

You should get them for winning a penalty or free-kick. They're not assists really.

Bad week for it potentially.

Don't do it, not unless you have to.

Knowledge of the DGWs is paramount pre-wildcard

All the popular ones are dropping like flies (Gabbi, Sanchez...).

Might be better of WC'ing a bit later after the international break.

Yes

No, there was even talk of Caceres starting today. At this rate he'll start soon enough.

Plot twist, Hebknub owns the team in second place too

I don't understand what's he done wrong that all you guys keep doubting his standing and pretty much want him to slip every week. The guy's playing well, fair game.

He was over 60 points ahead a few weeks ago.

Start thinking about Vardy..

Defoe

Nah. Ibra and Kane coming back eventually. Vardy also looking spritely. Don't waste your time with 3-5-2

Yes.5 mid looks good.

Vardy, Aguero

Thanks for the responses. With Lukaku and Aguero already on board, Vardy would do wonky things to my structure, but Defoe is worth considering.

Don't panic, bench is a bit weak but Kane to Costa/Vardy/someone else and you're not looking too bad at all

WC:

Pickford - De Gea
Alonso - Walker - Yoshida - Stones - Barragan
Siggy - Alli - Pedro - Sanchez - Sterling
Lukaku - Costa - Barnes

Look at Siggy to Mata for the DGWs.

Actually, one from Mane would do it.

just 5 from Firmino and Kun combined would do it for me.

17 goals from Aguero and I should go over the 150 mark!

Off on 59 and (i) I'd say 😉

Vardy. I've got Llorente and I want a refund.

B

B

B

Was always planning a hit post Intl Break anyway and have this crossroads.

B)

B not even close

Can you afford the second one only? I wouldn't get Mahrez.

Look up.

I'm considering it.

Cheers guys

Can't be worse than this.
Barnes to Kane for free, Kane to Deeney for a hit.

Dammit. 11 point goal

He scored, didn't he?

Groin. Wait for news.

Groin strain after 30min

He picked up the ball, placed it and kicked it.

Just Park it son 😉

Logically yeah, but this is real life unfortunately

Hmm, not too sure how is Alli the penalty taker. Got to check with Pochettino.

He'll go to Arsenal as one of the conditions of Arsene managing Monaco

And new GK and a few new defenders and proper new DM
