Wednesday’s Dugout Discussion

Gameweek 24 closes at Anfield tonight where Liverpool play host to Mark Hughes’ Fulham. Both sides are in the fledgling stages of revival following recent slumps and the home side in particular, will be looking to build on the fine 3-0 win at Wolves at the weekend.

The Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open and available to catch your final thoughts on what has been a pivotal Gameweek in our Fantasy seasons.

Fernando Torres wears the armband for some Fantasy Premier League managers tonight and hopes will be high following his two goal salvo at Molineux. Kenny Dalglish will be looking to him and the returning Steven Gerrard, to help break down stubborn resistance from what is expected to be an organised Fulham outfit.

Gerrard returns to the starting lineup then, Lucas, who is carrying a minor knock, makes way to allow the skipper to return. Elsewhere, Steve Sidwell makes his debut for the visitors with Dickson Etuhu missing out with a hamstring injury.

There’s also the second Carling Cup semi-final tonight with West Ham taking a slender 2-1 lead to St Andrews. There’s some potentially significant team news there, with Alex McLeish handing a start to Martin Jiranek in central defence, shifting Liam Ridgewell to left-back and benching budget prospect David Murphy.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.
