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.

    Carthorse of the highest order. Thank goodness we never paid money for him. How the hell did he ever get in England team?

    Desperate need for a striker in Jan window.

        Taarabts out tonight too now, I've had enough of him and Moses.

        Mata as well. Five goal Chelsea performance and he gets 1 assist and off after 72 mins too.

        Wildcard comes in handy.
