The last day of the gameweek before another International Break dawns. We’ve got four games to get our last fantasy fix on as we open the Dugout Discussion. We start with Bolton playing host to Chelsea.

Bolton have made a whole host of changes from the side that which lost at Arsenal, including Adam Bogdan coming in as goalkeeper. Didier Drogba comes in for the suspended Fernando Torres and Daniel Sturridge is fit enough to face the side he helped so much in the spring of 2011. Team line-ups in full are…

Bolton XI: Bogdan; Steinsson, Boyata, Cahill, Robinson; Gardner, Pratley, Reo-Coker, Petrov; Ngog, K Davies

Chelsea XI: Cech; Bosingwa, Terry, Luiz, Cole; Ramires, Lampard, Meireles; Mata, Drogba, Sturridge

Before this tie finishes we’ll have two of the newly promoted sides facing off against two Europa League combatants as Swansea play host to Stoke and Fulham welcome QPR at three o’clock. All of this will be the pre-cursor to the main event as the big North London Derby kicks off with Spurs playing host to Arsenal. Odds of 33/1 on Emmanuel Adebayor replicating “that” celebration. He wouldn’t, would he?

We’ll be here through all of it, come what may.

        No I don't think they do. Arsenal's mentality has been awful for a long time now and it's not getting any better.

        We're consistent... in shooting ourselves in the foot.

      Genius, Jonty! Ripped my defence apart to squeeze in Mata as well as Aguero. Thought Mata would've scored more than the single assist when I got home to a 0-4 half time score line.

      Didn't think Ramsey was going to do anything this week, but losing Enrique and Ramsey for Mata wasn't the best bit of business. Still, not a terrible GW in the grand scheme of things.

    Spurs have a very good first team now. Prefer Sandro to Parker but think they'd be great together in 4-2-3-1. Bale was good today too.

    Always a cracking atmosphere at 3 point lane which helps.

    Is Joventus about? They're top of FFS H2H league 2 and we're tied on 51 points before bonus 😀

    So long as Adebayor doesn't get bonus, I think I may just nick it. He has Agbonlahor who will hoover up 3 points, but no other standout (maybe Larsson and his assist?). I have Suarez and Sinclair.

    Need the win badly!

    As a neutral - Spurs looked a lot stronger than Arsenal. RVP was invisible, whilst Gooners keeper had a hell of a lot to do.

    Spurs have regrouped and look a solid team - Arsenal wont get relegated but the defence is shocking.
