Akers

There’s not one, but two lunchtime kick-offs in the Premier League today, and the Dugout Discussion chatroom is open and ready for a full day of football. We start at Villa Park in a matter of minutes, whilst the game at the DW Stadium is set to go at half past.

Once the dust has settled from Adel Taarabt announcing himself to the Premier League and Darren Bent scoring the first hattrick of the season, we have a somewhat meagre offering of just three 3 p.m. fixtures…

Blackburn and Everton do battle at Ewood Park, each side desperate for their first league point of the campaign. Swansea host Sunderland, who will both fancy their chances of earning a first win of the season. And then there’s Fernando Torres, with his belligerent of fantasy owners, all praying he finally nets today at home to the Canaries.

Finally, we’ll be off to Torres’ old stomping ground Anfield, where Liverpool and Bolton meet in today’s evening game.

All of which can be followed right here, in the Dugout Discussion chatroom.

Just One More Thing

14 years, 12 months ago
Rule # 23 in the Fantasy Football Rulebook - if a home goalkeeper and defender combo fail for you one week, stick with them next week 🙁

    Congrats - I need a goal from Larsson and another penalty save from Vorm to compensate.

      Captain Bent of course being the flip side to that. Still 2CSs just as good. Good luck with Larsson.

  Only there is a difference. There were literally no other good alternatives to Moses, whereas there were so many strikers around the £6m mark last season.

    Not to mention Moses is actually playing quite well so if he keeps it up the points will come. Boselli missed sitter after sitter, the lad was a joke.

Lol! What an awesome start to the week.Not just were my prayers answered and Bent stayed quiet but also I get a Given cleanie.All I need now is for Alex to start and for that useless piece of sh1t to get a fluke goal on his way out for RVP next week.

Taarabt hits the post twice. Moses Subbed. And Di Santo scored two goals. I think it's wildcard time.

  I've no idea what he's been like today, but he's been unlucky to not get points in the previous two. Well worth the punt given the first three fixtures.

Why take off Moses & Di Santo?

Di Santo definitely had 3BP. Moses 3pts & at £5M, will be benched as my 5th midfielder.

Baines on Toast...

14 years, 12 months ago
Bent looked good, the stats can sometimes not tell the whole story in that he doesn't even need to shoot to almost score with the amount of time it flashes across the box.

Drog and Torres...hmm, maybe doesn't bode well for captain Lamps.

Isn't Sess the only one of the bandwagons left with a chance? If he doesn't score against Swansea he's out and I'm WC'ing to a team of proven players.
