United. Chelsea. City. Arsenal. Spurs. Liverpool. Everton.

Last season’s top seven have all already played and soaked up most of the action for Fantasy Managers. However we’ve still got games and we’ve still got Fantasy points on the line this afternoon. We start off by opening the Dugout Discussion for Norwich vs. West Brom…

The visiting side are able to partner up Shane Long and Peter Odemwingie for the first time while captain Chris Brunt and James Morrison drop to the bench with Graham Dorrans and Jerome Thomas coming in. The home side meanwhile continue with the regular bouts of rotation as the likes of Andrew Surman and Elliott Bennett return and Wes Hoolahan has to make do with a place on the bench. Teams in full are…

Norwich XI: Rudd, Naughton, Barnett, De Laet, Tierney, Bennett, Crofts, Bradley Johnson, Surman, Holt, Chris Martin

West Brom XI: Foster; Reid, Tamas, Olsson, Shorey; Dorrans, Scharner, Mulumbu, Thomas; Long, Odemwingie.

Sunday Premier League football will then close out with Fulham playing host to Blackburn as both sides look to fight their way out of the early relegation spots.

The Dugout Discussion will be here for both of these fixtures.

                    Its your failure to comprehend the idea. Probably due to a terrible education system making it appear boring.

    I was set on captaining rooney this weekend but every naive player (who seem to score high) will do the same. He will score, but what about dzeko? No one will be captaining him, great differential. How many will he score against Fulham though?

      Nothing naive about captaining Rooney at home when he is on fire. Probably won't be doing it myself but I could understand why people would want to.

        I know he will get a lot of points, he's a good shout, that's why i was captaining. I just mean the 'others' are bound to captain him. I'll check out fulhams defense today, if they concede, i'm choosing dzeko.

      Every naive player ... and every player who has a form guide 🙂

      My theory is that differentials are for late-season. The name of the game now is staying with the pack and using the other elements of the team to inch forward.

      34 weeks left, lotsa time.

      Tempted to keep him actually, surely Lambert won't keep him on the bench for their next home game after this debacle.

        He's only played over 60 minutes once, Lambert mustn't think they can afford to play a player like Hoolahan ahead of someone less industrious and more workmanlike. He might get the easier home games, although I would've classed this as one of them
