The team to round out our gameweek this coming Wednesday evening also have the honour of kicking it off. That means only one thing, we’re well entrenched in another double gameweek and it’s left to the West Midlands derby of Birmingham playing host to West Brom to get us off and on our way as the Dugout Discussion opens it’s doors for the day…

Obafemi Martins is rewarded for his Carling Cup winning goal as he comes in for Nikola Zigic – those 14% backing the lanky Serb to second place in our poll are no doubt cursing right now. Curtis Davies and (Granny’s favourite) Jean Beausejour come in for Martin Jiranek and Seb Larsson while the injured duo of Gardner and Ferguson also replaced by David Bentley and Cameron Jerome. West Brom make just one change from the side that drew with Stoke as James Morrison comes in for the injured Graham Dorrans. Previous fantasy favourite Peter Odemwingie remains on the bench. Teams in full are…

Birmingham XI: Foster; Carr, Johnson, Davies, Ridgwell; Bentley, Fahey, Bowyer, Beausejour; Martins, Jerome

West Brom XI: Carson; Reid, Olsson, Meite, Shorey; Brunt, Mulumbu, Scharner, Morrison, Thomas; Fortune

We’ll then casually stroll into the midst of the 3pm kick-offs with the like Arsenal vs Sunderland and Newcastle playing host to Everton, our other double fixture interests, attracting the most interest.

We’ll close out the day in the safe hands of Roberto Mancini as his City side play host to bottom of the table Wigan. Carlos Tevez comfortably topped our poll this gameweek with 28% of the vote – a sign of the positive nature of the fixture, but just as much the general malaise and skepticism towards the wares on offer from our doublers this week, I imagine.

The Dugout Discussion will be with all through the day until we get some rather Jerky Knees this evening.

    Thought i had a brilliant team but this is turning out to be a crap GW. 3 Brum players do **** all. Barton doesn't start which means Huth will come in, took a 3 point hit to get in Saha as captain, dropping Bent to the bench. Ashley Young misses a penalty. Coleman doesn't start (but he probably will next week meaning Bent won't come on. Oh, and all my other players are doing **** all aswell.

          Jesus, you take your non-biased objectivity to some crazy levels. If you're a Utd fan, surely you must expect us to win the title.

          RvP out for a while, Fabs in and out all season, Chamakh and Bendtner shit, what more do you want 🙂

              It was based on confidence boost and Arsenal having 1 game in a month.

              And also being out of all cups.
