You can almost taste the romance of a Gameweek under floodlights. A midweek Fantasy deadline is upon us which presents the usual opportunity to sneak some last minute squad tweaks, armed with “actual real-life” teamsheets.

There are four matches tonight at the Emirates, Old Trafford, the Stadium of Light and the Hawthorns. Should you wish to gain the advantage of some early insight into the lineups from those games then the best place to source the information is our Dugout Discussion Chatroom.

We’ve opened it up nice and early to accommodate all your nighttime natterings.

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

        Oh saw the AND assists thing...well if you read the live commentary you usually get the answer. Alternatively try flashscore.com it puts the assist in brackets next to the goal scorers name. They get their info fed from the press association though and isn't always 100% accurate! Hope this helps...

      Etherington also a good option against Sunderland if they play Kenwyne and Carew.

      That's an astonishing comment. Shots were 18-7 and Arsenal had 59% possession.

      Everton had a bright start, just like against City, but then they tried to park the bus again and didn't luck out in the same way.

      Blah, Everton is probably the only team I don't have any sympathy at all with.

            It's funny because it's true

            But I've seen Rooney swear at refs before, nothing ever been done. Dunno if the FA would want more light thrown on the decision either. One of the worst I've seen. He's either stupid, blind or biased, stupid I think, and none of them flatter him, the refs in general or the FA.

            I'm hoping that's enough to put off any bans. No Nasri and Fabregas would mean pain. This Arsenal team needs playmakers to tick and RVP alone aint gonna cut it..

        Either way we'll know soon enough, if there was any truth in what Moyes said the ref will write it in his game report.

    Ah bollocks I'll repost it. I didn't realise it had fallen a few pages behind (quick movers tonight). Anyway a call for objectivity to Manchester United fans:

    AP
    This isn’t solely directed at you so don’t worry too much, its merely a blast against the recent attitudes of some touchy thin-skinned United fans on here.

    Firstly I have never said you are on a slump compared to your rivals, I simply pointed out that you are lucky the rest of the sides around you were weak because this is the worst Manchester United squad I have seen in the Premier League, and unlike 2005 you don’t seem to have the resources to buy your way out of the problems you are facing.

    I only compared Manchester United to Manchester United, I find it more than a tad exasperating that the smallest objective analysis of Manchester United gets nothing but a testudo and denials from your fans on here, I have never said any ABU stuff so this annoys me.

    I have no problem admitting that this Newcastle side isn’t a patch on the sides of the mid 90′s, it does not make me any less of a fan.

    Oh and the ‘crisis club’ thing, well the only people I have seen use that phrase on here are you, Akers and Chill Pill. Only one of which is obviously not a United fan.

    I apologise if this seems a bit over the top, its not so much in response to this one thing, more a response to cumulative posts that have irked me a bit. I understand United gets some ridiculous abuse on here, but it’s time that some of you started looking at your club with a more objective eye.

        I havent been on here much recently but I cant see ay prob with what you are saying Atilla. Man U squad is poor in comparison to earlier years for def, but compared to the others in the league has a very good chance of winning. if Rooney goes on a run now and Vidic and Ferdinand stay fit they could romp it.

        Atilla-read Carroll's interview in the Chronicle? I do think I believe the kid...and even if hes full of it, why didnt Ashley think about footy at all and plan a new body to come in?! All about making cash for him. Hope he runs in the summer

        Main culprits really are AP, Akers and to some extent Granville, mainly because they are obviously some of the most known and respected Man Utd fans on here who aren't mental. It isn't meant to be an attack on them at all, more just an olive branch.
        They analyse other teams to pieces, supporting the biggest dog on the block means everyone is going to want to pick at yours. Its sort of a request to not knee-jerk into defence mode, if someone has valid points about Newcastle or whoever, then I will try and consider them. Sometimes the reactions are as if they are expecting a Stalinist purge if they show the least disloyalty.
        Granville asked for more restraint on the boards during the podcast, I think objectivity would go a long way to seeing that.

      Great post.

      Thing is, the current stats don't lie. If within two years Utd have slumped to a mediocre mid table team (which we were in the 80s) I'd happily agree with you.

      Tonight they broke their unbeaten record.... in a league with insanity spending and a lot of top quality mid table teams and dangerous relegation zone scrappers. I think the fact that the 1999/2008 team reached such a zenith it's easy to compare this ones quality of football against it and criticise. This team is very much a different monster. I'm happy to agree to disagree, it's all part of the fun, and i can differentiate between the wind up ABU nobbers and the people who can actually think and put forward a good argument. I enjoyed reading it, nice one.

        Fair play mate, like I say it wasn't an attack.
        I can't help but go through man for man your squad and compare it though, to me it doesn't stack up against the old sides, however football isn't played on paper and you are getting the results necessary.
        Maybe the standard across the board was higher then? United had to be better to beat better competition?

      agree, taking a long time tonight, usually takes this much time if there is a dubious goal or assist or something though

      I believe you only get an assist if you have the ball and get fouled, he just got pulled in the box without touching it

        Seems an odd rule. I would guess they'll belatedly give him the assist on FPL, they're usually a bit more generous than the official assist stats.

    @bosko from previous page

    if its for one week, its not really worth it.

    maybe number one but v.persie is in great form.
    see how tevez does tomorrow.

    nani to silva is just silly though.

    silva is a great player but does not get many fpl points.

      Think Rooney will go up by .2 now with the sheep jumping off Berbatov and back on Rooney, Van Persie and Adam might, depending on how ADam does tomorrow night, reckon Odemwingie definitely will

      I didn't reply as what does it prove? As i said tonight, sometimes decisions go your way (BLACKPOOL GAME), sometimes they don't (TONIGHT"S GAME).
