Saturday Dugout Discussion

We’ve got three days of Fantasy Football this gameweek, but it’s all about Saturday in fairness for most Fantasy Managers out there. If you’re looking for a strong Gameweek, you’re going to need to kick things off with a bang. We’ll be starting proceedings with Arsenal playing host to Tottenham in the hotly contested North London derby…

Laurent Koscielny returns from suspension and Denilson ousts Jack Wilshere in midfield for the Gunners while Harry Redknapp recalls fit again Aaron Lennon in place of Peter Crouch as he reverts to a 4-5-1 formation. Jermain Defoe is back on the bench today after two months out. The line-ups in full are…

Arsenal XI: Fabianski; Sagna, Squillaci, Koscielny, Clichy; Song, Denilson; Nasri, Fabregas, Arshavin; Chamakh

Spurs XI: Gomes; Hutton, Kaboul, Gallas, Assou-Ekotto; Lennon, Jenas, Modric, Bale; Van Der Vaart; Pavluychenko

The day keeps trucking with the 3pm kick-offs with many Fantasy Managers pinning their hopes and FPL armbands on Nani against Wigan at Old Trafford, while Chelsea backers will hope that the Blues can turn the ship around against the other Blues of Birmingham City. Liverpool, sans Steven Gerrard, will be welcoming West Ham to Anfield in our evening kick-off as they look to push up the table and bounce back from defeat at Stoke.

There’s a lot to be taken in today and as normal the Dugout Discussion is open and awaiting all of your fervent displays this fine day.

        if you got elmander then you should be happy, unlike davies' brace elmander's sounded like class. i bought nasri and fabs this week so after 8 mins i was laughing, now i'm just sick of vdv, carroll and elmander

          F*kin pisses me off that davies just relied on his pens to get the score this week when after backing elmander at home and captaining him, now actually doesn't feel that good. hope he gets the 3 bps

            to be fair people will get davies knowing he's on pens so it can always happen. 2 in one game obviously is a bit jammy but he did win the second one. elmander should be nailed on for the 3bps. it's amazing the turnaround this season for elmander and bolton this season. you can see why coyle tied down holden now even when de jong had just broken his leg. well worth the wait

              Yep, been very impressed with Holden too, good footballer. Although all this elmander love may be short lived as rumours are that bolton may have to sell in order to manage their debt, which will be sad if it happens.

    Elmander/VDV/Foster could all get me 3 BP's! Should of captained Elmander over Nani, and all the talk all week "he doesn't score at home", does he heck.

    Nani (C) should of had about 2-3 assists, pity United were so blah today, one of the poorest 2-0 victories I have seen in sometime, Nani should be in for 1 BP anyway maybe, he gave away the ball too easily at times but his crossing was very good and kept Wigan busy all day.

    54 with BP's and Jagielka/Boateng/Albrighton to come, nice.

      what do you mean? It's logical you would play foster, he is at home and we all know bham are very tight at home and hardly concede. Plus they are playing chelsea so even if he doesn't get a clean sheet there is a chance of a bonus with shot saves.

    Newcastle is the Wigan of this season. They can thrash a team or get thrashed, there's hardly any middle ground. And their central players are definitely undervalued, but with fixtures stiffening it seems a good time to get rid of either Nolan or Krul or both. Carrol's a definite season keeper.

    bolton's results this season definitely point to how good of a manager coyle is. i know he already did a fantastic job at burnley, but then to be consistent and have a team like bolton doing so well in the prem is just as astonishing. so glad i've had the likes of elmander, carroll, adam since the very beginning when dirt cheap.
