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.

      Not sure how it works these days, probably go to the defenders though. Dunne, Collins and Herd were pretty good.

      Bet that will go up. He does seem overpriced, and I had to think long and hard about squeezing him in. Kinda glad I did now. Reckon he'll be the highest scoring mid again this year.

        I have him, Silva, Rooney, Bent and Suarez and Bos. Had to compromise on goalies, but Super Michel Vorm seems to be doing alright for me so far today.

          Vorm is a good call, I went for more money in the forwards but if Nando does nowt today then I'll sell him and bring in Rooney.

      This f*cking season is already in the bin.Missed out on Rooney in GW 1,then captained Baines instead of him last week and now I decided to stick with Alex instead of kicking him out for Bos to have two freebies for next week.FMFL! :'( I might just quit the game for the season.You can't delete your team,right?
