Sunday Dugout Discussion

We open the Dugout Discussion for the final four fixtures of the gameweek, and the month, before we take our first International Break breather.

Newcastle versus Fulham kicks us off with the home side calling in Peter Lovenkrands for the now departed Joey Barton and Leon Best filling a Shola Ameobi sized void. The visitors meanwhile welcome Chris Baird and Matthew Briggs at the back with a host of changes made to their midfield and attack…

Newcastle XI: Krul, Simpson, Steven Taylor, Coloccini, Ryan Taylor, Lovenkrands, Cabaye, Tiote, Gutierrez, Obertan, Best

Fulham XI: Schwarzer, Briggs, Hughes, Hangeland, Baird, Dempsey, Murphy, Sidwell, Duff, Dembele, Kasami.

Half an hour later Spurs are left to pick themselves up from their defeat to Man United to welcome Man City for their first home game of the season.

Despite talk of an impending departure for Peter Crouch he lines up for ‘Arry with Luka Modric also in the mixer. Roberto Mancini rewards Micah Richards with a new contract and a place on the bench as he, Aleksander Kolarov and James Milner drop out for Pablo Zabaleta, Gael Clichy and new signing Samir Nasri…

Spurs XI: Friedel; Corluka, Dawson, Kaboul, Assou-Ekotto; Lennon, Kranjcar, Modric, Bale; Van der Vaart, Crouch.

Man City XI: Hart, Zabaleta, Kompany, Lescott, Clichy, Barry, Yaya, Silva, Nasri, Aguero, Dzeko

The Dugout Discussion will be around for all four games as West Brom vs Stoke and, the big one, Man United vs Arsenal round out the day, week and month.

      seems like a waste of a transfer - very knee-jerk

      silva is no less likely to score or assist just becasue he didn't today and nasri did

        I agree, however with that said, I dont think there would be any harm in having both of them 🙂

    Typically I made the entirely wrong decision on Anelka vs Dzeko for the 8.5 sized hole in my team this week 🙂 In better news I just need West Brom to win to make $1,200 on my betfair multiple .... the suspense is killing me!

          You've got Arsenal, Wbrom, Villa, City cover for their next few it seems to me, no? And I'd hang on to Baines for now (and am). You could get more City cover w/one transfer.

    Hey guys, quick question, if i wild card now, does that mean i can ticker with my team until the deadline of the next match? I.e. 2 weeks from now (after the internationals) or just up until next weekend? If that's the case then where's the worry about wildcrad players getting injured in the internationals? You can simply sub em out no?

        cheers jimmy. seems then that it would make a lot of sense, even if only to make a shed load of cash for the future on players that are clearly gonna rise...

    kick-off gut feeling is suddenly saying 3-2 United, with Arsenal fluking a 2-0 lead, then bottling.

          NTI is about 35k right now. You need twice the amount to raise another 0.1, so:
          35000 = 0.1
          105000 = 0.2
          245000 = 0.3
          525000 = 0.4
