Sunday’s Dugout Discussion

A game being billed as the most important Merseyside derby in years kicks off a double bill of Sunday afternoon fixtures. NESV-owned Liverpool travel up the road to city rivals Everton, with both sides looking for only their second win of the campaign.

Everton will already be confident of inflicting defeat on their arch-rivals for the first time in the league for over four years, but that confidence will be bolstered with the team news. Jamie Carragher fills in at right-back for the injured Glen Johnson, Steven Gerrard partners Lucas Leiva in defensive midfield and Phil Jagielka passes a late fitness test to play…

Everton XI: Howard, Neville, Jagielka, Distin, Baines, Coleman, Heitinga, Arteta, Osman, Cahill, Yakubu

Liverpool XI: Reina, Carragher, Skrtel, Kyrgiakos, Konchesky, Gerrard, Lucas, Meireles, Cole, Maxi, Torres

The final game of the day sees Manchester City visit Bloomfield Road, with most fantasy-managers praying for contrasting returns for a certain Argentinian. That game kicks off at 4pm.

The Dugout Discussion is open as usual and is awaiting your participation.

    Looks like I'm onto another 1/2 point haul with all my defs this week.

    Please hurry back Kolarov. I need you in my side to replace Konchesky or Shawcross.

    In fact, Bale might be getting a stay of execution here.

    Anyone else got a worse defense than mine?

    RMT, although its not actually my team. it is a team i propose to have in about 3/4 gws

    (FOSTER) (KRUL)
    Konchesky Coleman Bosingwa (SAMBA) Kolarov
    (VANDERVAART) Brunt Fabregas (NANI) Adam
    (DROGBA) Odemwingie (BERBATOV)
    with 0.6 remaining
    (THESE ARE THE PLAYERS THAT I ALREADY HAVE)

    so the changes are:

    oshea to koncheskey
    williamson to coleman or simpson
    knight to bosingwa
    shawx to kolarov
    ferguson to brunt
    arteta to adam
    gerrard to fabs
    carroll to odemwingie

    plan to do the bosingwa move this week and do the rest over the next 3 weeks

    good moves or no? any other tips? or am i thinking too far ahead?

    Lord help me! My defense is a disaster zone this week.

    Saddest thing is, if Konchesky wasn't fit this week and Drogba wasn't injured I would have done Konchesky to Coleman and Bale to Arteta.

    Liverpool and Stoke defence = major disaster every week.
