Sunday Dugout Discussion

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.

      Like someone said a page ago, Norwich were like top scorers in the Championship last season.

      Just goes to show the gap in class between just the top of the Championship and the Premier League.

      Look at Norwich and Swansea though and see how many starters they have from last season's Championship teams.

      Then look at QPR tomorrow and in the weeks to come and see how many starters from the Championship winning team will be regulars from hereon in. Probably 4 at most, though I think its more likely to be 3.

      Huge step up in class and Championship players by and large find it difficult to make the transition.

    I noticed that Sessegnon and Sinclair have cost me .1m each.Bent looks like he will drop too. The Saurez and Bent situations are worrying me. Great fitures but not performing "fantasy wise" at least.
    Could "cash in" on Saurez get odemwingie then Bent out rooney in gw5.
    But the fixtures seem to dictate otherwise. Also Man utd have a diffcult series of fixtures coming up. This means rotation for Man Utd Berbatov and Owen etc.
    Reminds me of The Clash Song "Should I stay or Should I go". If I go there will be trouble but if I stay there will be double...
