Now the hustle and bustle of pre-deadline nerves is over we can all sit down to another enjoyable gameweek of footballing action as the points roll in, starting with…. oh.

Abort, Abort, Abort.

Saturday kicks off with Wigan playing host to Wolves, perhaps the most interesting fact from this game being… nope, I’ve got nothing.

However, we take what we’re given, and if you can draw yourself away from the Ryder Cup for long enough, then you will see that Jordi Gomez is granted a rare start for Wigan behind the recovered Franco Di Santo. Mick McCarthy meanwhile has given us no great surprises, the line-ups in full are…

Wigan XI: Al Habs; Boyce, Gohouri, Alcaraz, Figueroua; McCarthy, Thomas; N’Zogbia, Gomez, Rodallega; Di Santo.

Wolves XI: Hahnemann; Foley, Craddock, Berra, Ward; Edwards, Henry, Mancienne, Jarvis; Fletcher, Doyle.

After this however we have six 3 o’clock kick offs that may excite the palette just a little bit more as – amongst others – West Brom play host to Bolton, Manchester United travel up to Sunderland and Redknapp invites Houllier down to London for a big day out in the Capital.

The Dugout Discussion will be open through all the days action as usual. Godspeed.

    Fabregas, Nani and VdV all in, Milner, Gerrard and Bale out. To be fair it was the plan all along, the reason I've done it this early is that VdV's price is going to rocket - if I didn't do it today I wouldnt be able to do it at all.

      You won't like me for pointing this out, but you could have waited on the Gerrard-Fabregas move, no? In fact, Fabregas's might not even play next week, his price could drop, Gerrard could have a stormer tomorrow and rise in price... and it's 2 weeks until the next deadline.

      The other 2 are quite understandable though.

          Thanks? I guess.

          I'm just glad I got VDV before he started doing well, people have been talking about him recently but he hasn't really "made anyone pay" yet - this week helps a bit.

          DFD captained him though - he's a rival - and I was tempted, so there's an inkling of bitterness. But happy.
