Wednesday’s Dugout Discussion

2 February 2011 2115 comments

Six more Premier League matches, six more opportunities to add to our Gameweek totals – sadly, after last night’s heavyweight bouts, the Fantasy talent on show looks somewhat limited.

Carlos Tevez will carry the hopes of some as City take on Birmingham at St Andrews, Dutch maestro Rafael Van der Vaart will do his bit for Spurs at Blackburn. Elsewhere, the ever-popular wantaway Charlie Adam will be spraying passes around and over the accommodating West Ham defence and Clint Dempsey will be shooting on sight with Newcastle dropping by the Cottage.
Aside from that, we will all be hoping to find clean sheets. There might just be more chance of finding Germaine Greer on Andy Gray’s Facebook friend list.

Follow the fortunes of all these players and Johan Elmander’s latest attempt at prising the wheel clamp from his bandwagon, in tonight’s Dugout Discussion chatroom. The doors are open. Granville’s doing the teas.

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

    Anyone who mocked my claim that Kingson is the worst keeper in the league should check out his performance tonight. When is Gilks back?

        Yeah Sturridge. I think he just needed a chance elsewhere, like Welbeck.

      Adam probably, Barton hasn't got a lot to aim at with Carroll gone and Shola out, and I think West Ham will score.

    How come Kingson couldn't save that first strike from Obinna? Especially seeing as they are best friends (they are both from africa). so i thought he wouldve been able to read the shot coming and save it, surely all african players can tell when they are going to shoot?

    Yippee!! Back in top 1k! But seriously, I don't think I can do all this again, last year for me I think! Taking up far too much of my time. Although the £200 prize in my mini-league is a good incentive. (Won it last year too ... at least it will give the lads at work a chance) 😆 Now I've done it... kiss of death!
