Dugout Discussion

Saturday Dugout Discussion – Gameweek 5

We start Gameweek 5 at the Liberty Stadium, as Michael Laudrup’s Swansea host Everton. The Dugout Discussion is open, so come in and follow all the day’s action amongst fellow fantasy football managers. The team news is in and there’s one or two surprises…

Swansea XI: Vorm, Rangel, Tate, Williams, Davies, Ki, de Guzman, Michu, Hernandez, Routledge, Graham.

Everton XI: Howard, Neville, Heitinga, Jagielka, Baines, Osman, Pienaar, Coleman, Fellaini, Mirallas, Anichebe.

Following their defeat at Aston Villa last time out, Nathan Dyer and Leon Britton drop to the bench with Ki Sung Yueng and Pablo Hernandez coming in.

Having scored on Monday night against Newcastle, Victor Anichebe earns a starting berth, replacing the injured Nikica Jelavic.

There’s another five Premier League fixtures to enjoy after Swansea and Everton do battle – so plenty of fantasy points on offer all round. The Dugout Discussion chatroom is the place to see them roll in, which can be accessed right here.

          I made him 2nd sub because I'd rather have a midfielder coming on instead of a defender. And If one of my 3 defenders doesn't play than Clyne would come on automatically anyway.

          alright smartarse?

            So you'd rather have someone coming on as sub (sterling) that you didn't want to
            play, rather than clyne whom you did want to play? Not being smart, just stating the blatently obvious. We've all benched points mate, and all will again.

              At what point did I say I wanted Clyne to play? I clearly decided against playing him because I benched him at last minute. If I wanted him to play he would have been on the pitch, but seeing as Southampton can't defend I didn't. All I said was I benched him at last minute and you start saying you seriously doubt that. Sterling is benched because although I think he could do something, I'm a United fan so I'm a bit biased.

                Why i doubt it is because you "benched for Noble just before the deadline",
                so your plan obviously was to play 433 at that point with sterling and noble on bench (i presume), you then decided to bench Clyne and play Noble, but you still keep Sterling 1st sub, doesn't add up.

                  Now if you'd have said "benched for Demel just before deadline"
                  that'd make sense

                    Well thats what happened. I actually had Fellaini on the bench as first sub to start with. What does it matter to you anyway? I also transfered in Baines about 5 mins before the deadline as well, do you believe that? I best get my lawyer to help me with my defence.
